If James Hylton had run just a bit harder he could have prevented Waltrip from getting into the 500.

yea LSC, but the spotter was talking about the rear of the car. I wish James Hylton had knocked him out. I agree with the idiot part maybe he'll blow an engine on the pace laps.

Then my prayers would be answered. I guess there is no sense posting a Mike Waltrip fan thread ?????

i am not so sure it was the fault of the spotter, I think Mikey has a case of hard feelings toward DEI

I agree, and it's too bad because they put him on the map. Until he was at DEI, he was a mid-packer at best his entire career. With DEIs plate program, he got recognition and a couple of wins. Not to mention he stole their sponser in Napa. If I remember correctly, Earnhardt Sr originally got Napa for his Craftsman truck team driven by Ron Hornaday, and they eventually moved to his Cup team.

Jr said the other day that the engine problems were found and they are making adjustments.

i think he will make the chase, after that its up in the air

Please note this thread is for Dale Earnhardt Jr. fans to discuss their favorite driver through out the upcoming Nextel Cup season. It is intended for Dale Earnhardt Jr. fans only. Junior-bashing will not be tolerated here, and any inappropriate comments will be deleted immediately.

So Dale Earnhardt Jr. fans, let's hear it for your driver! Who wants to go first?

Great idea!

Loved Sr., followed Jr. through the ranks of Busch.

This may be off topic, but I'm curious ...

Remember when Jr.'s car caught fire (I don't remember where it was) and he seemed to climb out of the car himself, but asked, "Who pulled me out?"

I have a video of the event, and it does appear that someone "lifted" him out of the car.

Trust me, the last thing I want to do is get into a debate about the afterlife and/or spirituality, but Jr. stated that "someone" got him out of that car.

I don't know. I'm just curious what others think.

I'm just nuts about Jr. and think this string will be quite popular.

It was California and I remember seeing the interview where he told about the fire and he did say that he wanted to meet the person that pulled him out and they showed the video of him getting out and I agree when his arms came up, and out he came, It does make you think. It did look a bit strange.

I heard Jr in a interview, he believes that Sr helped him out of the car, and saved him from further injury, and possibly his life. Who knows, there are weird things that happen in the world. Thank goodness he got out of the car either way.

I really don't want to get into my spiritual beliefs, but I do believe someone got Jr out of that car.

Wasn't that race an off-week from Cup?

As mentioned, I have the video from one of the news shows. I think it was 20/20 or Dateline. A friend taped it for me. I played it in slow motion time and time again, and there's something spooky about it.

Even during the interview, Jr. admitted that it "sounds crazy, but I know what I experienced, and don't care what people say." I'm paraphrasing, but that's pretty close to what he said.

Thanks for your input. I don't want to focus on history. I just thought this was an interesting topic.

I also found it eerie when Jr. finished 3rd in the points. While he was on stage in New York, the number 3 was displayed behind him. I suppose, perhaps, we look for symbolism.

Yes it was. I also thought it was kinda funny that he could have opened the door but instincts took over and out the window he went.
