Here's an excerpt from a Dale Jr. interview from NASCAR.com:

Q: Were you excited that Talladega was in the last 10 races?

Earnhardt Jr.: Yeah, a little too excited for some, I guess. I was looking forward to it but I was nervous because it would come at a time when you really need it. My whole life has been, man, when I really need this it never <b>removed</b> happens. I just let that slip out. I need to go to some class or something. Dale Carnegie or something, to get it right."

Did you see him on 60 minutes. He said he built a new "Spec Home for $90,000, ya $90,000 people" and he is perfectly happy.

He built a go-cart track in his back lawn for him and his buddies.

During the week he says, he has a simulated race track, sort of like Playstation set up and he practices 4 days out of the week racing on the track that will be coming up on Sunday.

He also must have broken up with his girlfriend, cause he said he hit the 3 month mark and it sort of sizzled away. "She started changing the way she wanted things done."

It was really a good interview.

Gave me the shivers when he said someone lifted him under his shoulders and carried him out of his burning car too.

I saw the 60 Minutes interview too. LOL when he said he races online too, and doesn't always win!

Don't really know much about racing, but we plan on making a go-cart track in our backyard when we retire. I can tell my mom it's not such a crazy idea since Dale did it too!

I love Jr. (potty mouth and all) ! He's a genuine down to earth kinda guy. I'm hoping it being his birthday on Sunday will bring him some luck in kansas and get him back to #1 !
