Dale Earnhardt Jr. relives the 2001 24 Hours of Daytona as he sits down with Andy Pilgrim, Kelly Collins and Doug Fehan. As the Corvette racing program began to take shape in the early 2000s, Dale Jr. and his father Dale Earnhardt turned the racing world on its side by taking part in the crown jewel sports car event. Doug and Andy explain that the partnership actually formulated a year earlier when the team won the Petit Le Mans. Dale Sr. wrote Andy a letter congratulating him on the win and his impressive pass to do so, while expressing interest in teaming up. Corvette reached out through Gary Claudio, who had experience working with NASCAR through Pontiac's program and the deal was set for the 2001 running at Daytona. The guys recount the testing sessions at Sebring and Daytona leading up to the race and help paint a picture of Dale Sr. that listeners may be unfamiliar with. Dale Jr. recalls crashing the car immediately in his first session, as he set out to run it like his stock car. He explains that the tires needed a gradual warm up instead of a quick onset like he was used to, and it caught him off guard. Dale Sr. was all in on the experience and insisted on being involved in every meeting and decision surrounding the partnership. Dale Jr. shares a story about practicing driver swaps with his father during a NASCAR Cup weekend to help prepare them for their upcoming sports car debut. The interview also breaks down the race weekend, the plans to continue on with Corvette in the future and what the teammates have been up to in the years that followed. Dirty Mo Media is launching a new e-commerce merch line!

Veteran Crew Chief Mike Kelley joins Davey Segal (5:40) for a reflective and emotional trip down memory lane and deep dive behind Hyak Motorsports with Ricky Stenhouse Jr. Kelley explains how the team is punching above their weight right now in the NASCAR Cup Series, how they operate with no technical alliances in todays day and age and why he and Stenhouse have so much trust in one another. Kelley also recalls his early beginnings in motorsports, including some funny stories when he started working for Ernie Irvan (not as a driver, as he initially thought) and emotional ones while working as Michael Waltrip's car chief at Dale Earnhardt Inc. Kelley opens up about why the 2001 Daytona 500 is still emotional for him, the relationship he had with Dale Earnhardt and how the team and sport moved forward following his passing. He also dives into winning the 2004 Cup championship with Kurt Busch at Roush, why earning that title meant so much to him, getting hooked up with Stenhouse Jr. as a young, baby-faced kid, winning back-to-back Xfinity Series championships and more, including his leadership style, why he takes pride in teaching the younger generation, his work with Lake Norman Humane and more.

The Goodwrench No. 3 Chevrolet, with an eye-catching black paint job, became one of the most feared and iconic symbols in NASCAR history, as Earnhardt notched 76 race wins and a record-tying seven NASCAR Cup Series championships over a groundbreaking 26-year career. Racing was his life, and it ran in his blood. He grew up idolizing his father Ralph, a respected driver on the early NASCAR circuit, and his own children likewise strove to follow him onto the track—with son Dale Earnhardt Jr. eventually becoming one of the most enduringly popular drivers of all time in his own right. From one generation to the next, racing would become the Earnhardt legacy – fueling their greatest triumphs and delivering their deepest loss.Earnhardt is a four-part documentary series that explores the legendary racing career and complex family dynamics of NASCAR legend Dale Earnhardt. With rare archival footage, thrilling races, and emotionally revealing interviews from his children, rivals, and closest friends, Earnhardt is the definitive story of an American icon, both on and off the track.www.mmcpodcast.com#primevideo #daleearnhardt #daleearnhardtjr #nascar #racing #carracing #interview #podcast #documentary #racingcar Reach out to Darek Thomas and Monday Morning Critic!Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mondaymorningcritic/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/mondaymorningcritic/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@mondaymorningcriticMondaymorningcritic@gmail.com

Dale Earnhardt Jr. welcomes two-time NASCAR Truck Champion Todd Bodine to the Download this week to chat about their shared family history and his path to the pinnacle of stock car racing. Born into a racing family, Todd found himself in racing at an early age thanks to his father's involvement with Chemung Speedway.  Todd's older brothers Geoff and Brett would both rise from the NASCAR modified ranks in the Northeast to having opportunities in Charlotte for some of the top teams in the 1980s. Todd explains that after he assisted his father with work at Log Cabin Speedway in Virginia, he would follow Brett to Connecticut and begin his own racing career. When a big crash destroyed his car and his owner ran out of money, Todd packed his bags and headed south to Charlotte to join his brothers.It was there that his shared family history with Dale Jr. began, as he would take a job working in Robert Gee's garage on Rick Hendrick's Busch Grand National cars. Race fans will remember Dale Earnhardt Sr.'s fierce rivalry with Todd's older brother Geoff in the 1980s, which became the inspiration for the famed “Days of Thunder” movie starring Tom Cruise. Dale Jr. and Todd share their perspectives on the numerous family run-ins during that time, and Todd remarks that he just saw two drivers racing hard for glory. The conversation also covers Dale Jr. and Todd's time spent together racing in the Busch Series in the late 1990s. The two would add their own chapter to the Bodine/Earnhardt feud when they had a run-in at Pikes Peak in 1999. Todd brings Dale Jr. a souvenir from the incident, and the two are able to have a good laugh all these years later. Dirty Mo Media is launching a new e-commerce merch line!

Dale Earnhardt Jr. turns back the hands of time as he sits down with his childhood friend and longtime race car fabricator Brad Means. The two first met on the NASCAR Cup circuit in the mid-1980s, as Brad was traveling with his father Jimmy Means, who was a mainstay in stock car racing. Dale explains that he developed an admiration for Jimmy at an early age due to his hard work and determination as an underdog, independent runner in the Cup Series. After meeting through their fathers, Brad and Dale began hanging out on a weekly basis at the track, spending time watching the races, hanging out in the drivers' lounge, and running go-karts. Brad also set out to become a racer, following in his father's footsteps into the world of NASCAR racing. Brad's dad Jimmy recognized an extraordinary ability in Brad and recommended that he pursue his talent of fabricating and hanging bodies, as there were many jobs available for skilled crafters in the garage at the time. This led Brad to work at many legendary teams like Richard Childress Racing, Robert Yates, and Roush. Brad spent many years on the move before settling in with ThorSport, where he currently hangs NASCAR Truck bodies and serves as a truck chief for Ty Majeski. The two also discuss how the Truck Series is the "final frontier of innovation" in the sport, and share their favorite "creativity" stories from over the years. Dirty Mo Media is launching a new e-commerce merch line!

Dale Earnhardt Jr. sits down with longtime NASCAR competitor and former Coke 600 winner Casey Mears to chat about his recent return to the driver's seat. With the goal of reaching 500 career Cup starts in mind, Casey returned to Sunday competition this past weekend at Martinsville. Casey explains that the inspiration for the push to get 500 came from an interview he did a couple of years ago, where a journalist informed him that he had 489 starts. Thanks to time on the simulator, Casey was able to jump back behind the wheel after his five year absence and complete the race without too many mistakes.Casey and Dale discuss his upbringing in Bakersfield, California, and his time spent racing Stadium Super Trucks and off-road racing. Casey's relationship with off-road trucks stems back to his father Roger, who was prolific in the division, earning four class victories in the famed Baja 1000. Casey shares his experiences from the event and gives listeners great insight into what competitors face throughout the race. The guys also chat about Casey's time in the open wheel world, making the transition to stock cars, Casey's current day to day life and their friendship over the years.Dirty Mo Media is launching a new e-commerce merch line!

Dale Earnhardt Jr. welcomes former Cup Series driver & 1978 Karting World Champion Lake Speed to the studio to learn about his path from karts to Cup. Without the support of his parents, Lake had to chase the racing dream on his own, and started a karting business out of his house to fuel the fire. After finding success stateside, Lake ventured to Europe to pursue the ultimate achievement in karting: The World Championships. After a few embarrassing first attempts racing internationally, Lake finally won it all in 1978, beating future F1 Champion Ayrton Senna.  After achieving the highest honor in the karting world, Lake shares why he wanted to move to NASCAR, and looks back at the moment he busted his ass in his first handful of laps in a Cup car. Lake opens up on his deep connection to faith, and how he learned to trust the inner voice in his head. Once he started trusting that voice, everything changed for him, and he went on to deliver an impressive second place finish in the Daytona 500 and a win at Darlington several years later. Dale & Lake close out the interview by discussing his relief efforts following Davey Allison's passing, his fight with Michael Waltrip, and his experience working with the Motor Racing Outreach. Even at 77 years old, Lake still races. That alone should tell you this is a conversation you have to hear.

After getting his start out of his uncle's junkyard and racing street stocks in Southwest Michigan, Jack found his way into the world of late model racing, eventually taking a job at Port City Racecars. Through the help of his mother and stepfather, Jack made the move to North Carolina and began working with short track fixtures Jay Hedgecock and Rober Hamke while getting his feet planted in the scene. Hamke proved to be a great influence on Jack and taught him about setting up cars and racing technique, leading him to become one of the most successful racers at Concord Speedway and in the Big 10 Series. Later on, Jack became acquainted with Rick Hendrick and became a NASCAR Truck Series regular. His first truck ride came through Pee Wee Griffin, after Gary Balough was incarcerated, and he set out on the 1995 Truck schedule with a shoestring budget.

On this week's DJD classics episode, Dale Earnhardt Jr. and co-host Mike Davis catch up with one of his longtime competitors from the NASCAR Cup scene, Washington's Greg Biffle. After a successful career in NASCAR that spanned nearly two decades, Biffle quietly exited the sport following the 2016 season.Greg shares his story of how he got into NASCAR, where he ultimately headed south to Tucson, Arizona to participate in the NASCAR Winter Heat Series. It was there that he met and befriended NASCAR Hall of Famer Benny Parsons, who was impressed with the unknown racer's performance. As the story goes, weeks later Parsons was conversing with Jack Roush in the garage area at Michigan International Speedway about Roush's NASCAR Truck team. Parsons recommended Biffle to Roush, and soon after he received a call from Geoff Smith, the president of Roush Racing at the time. After a lengthy chat, a contract was faxed over to Greg and the next two decades of his racing career were in motion.Greg and Dale speak about the decline of Roush Racing and the factors that led to the team falling behind the competition. Greg explains the team failed to progress with the direction of the sport and it took them a long time to catch up once they were behind. The lack of winning equipment ultimately played a role in Greg leaving Cup racing in 2016, a year earlier than his contract stated.The interview also touches on some of Greg's rivalries over the years, and the stories behind them. Greg details his dust-up with Jay Sauter at Richmond and the monetary fine and points penalty that fell on him because of it. As a result, when he and Kevin Harvick made contact at Bristol a year later in 2002, he knew he wanted to avoid a fight at all costs. They also discuss his famous feud with Boris Said at Watkins Glen in 2011, and how a perfectly thrown water bottle caused a huge blow-out. Dirty Mo Media is launching a new e-commerce merch line!

Garrett Mitchell was born in Omaha, Nebraska, and the Cleetus McFarland character was born thanks to a viral video made by a burgeoning street racing film company he worked with. After splitting his time between video editing, covering events, and law school, McFarland decided to go full-time with his own YouTube page and rapidly grew into one of the biggest followings on the platform. McFarland turned heads in the oval racing world when he purchased the dilapidated Desoto Speedway in Bradenton, Florida, and turned it into his personal playground for content. He and Dale recount the story of how the purchase came to be, and how a run-in with the IRS and COVID restrictions almost stopped him dead in his tracks. In an effort to bounce back from the obstacles, McFarland hosted his first Freedom 500, a race held for state auction purchased Crown Vics. The races have since become marquee events, held at established short track strongholds such as Indianapolis Raceway Park, Stafford Springs, and Bristol.

Ty shares some of the challenges he faced along the way from both the highest of highs and lowest of lows of the team. He reminisces about his old pal, Dale Earnhardt, and about the life lessons he learned from him along the way - right, wrong, or indifferent. After the Intimidator's untimely death at Daytona, DEI was left without its leader and Ty describes how he dealt with the rising tensions within the company. He eventually reveals his opinion on the only way to have saved the sinking ship which was DEI, which was for Dale Earnhart Jr. to be its leader, which is what his dad would have wanted. An emotional story Ty shares about a father-son moment between Dale Sr. and Dale Jr. furthers that narrative, which Dale Jr. remembers as "the best conversation he and his dad ever had."Ultimately, Ty Norris' time at DEI came to a close, and years later he found himself at the center of one of the most infamous events in NASCAR history - Spingate.
