I find it kind of comical, that JR, is there to test tires. His firesuit says G. oodyear, but the car has Hoosiers on it. I can't wait to see him race in competition, again. GO JR!!!
Very, very cool .... must bring back a lot of memories. Alright, now, Jr. ..... give us some lap times, please ..... Looked like a perfect day to test.
The entire front straight should be renamed the Dale Earnhardt Jnr stand, for all that he has done from the days of planning to scan the track, to its full real life racing revival. A major salute to you Dale, as far as Im concerned you are the face of Nascar mate.
First NASCAR race I saw in person was in October of 1983 there at North Wilkesboro. All these years later I still grab a Cheerwine Soda and watch the Cup cars each week on TV here in Colorado. Would love to see them back there someday.
I'm so glad to see this my daughter goes to App State in Boone and every time I go visit I think about north wilksboro because I go right bye there and remember the days they raced there glad to know it's being brought back to life that's awsome
I've watched this a couple times....so glad to see 2 legends together! It always makes me happy seeing Jr in a car! Thanks Dale Jr for working to save N. Wilkesboro!
Loved the video!! Excited to see cars on the track again. It looked like Dale was flying! Can’t wait for the 31st. Thanks to everyone who has made this possible.
First race I ever seen 1993 North Wilksboro with my uncle Tobey now I'm a lifetime NASCAR and DALLAS COWBOYS fan because of him. And because of that place there.
Such a simple but yet satisfying vlog. Love seeing what it takes to prep for this upcoming race. I miss this racetrack and I really hope it doesn’t disappoint.
Seeing Dale Jr. behind the wheel is like a ice cream sundae to this insulin dependent diabetic. Racing full time would be bad for Jr. But every once in a great while it is so sweet to cheat. I miss him racing. But boy is it really sweet to see him behind the wheel of a race car. Thank you Dale Jr. For giving your fans a huge treat.
I miss seein Dale Jr race in cup he was awesome and my favorite in nascar along with Tony Stewart. Both of them were awesome and one and two favorites in nascar. Now my favorites in nascar are Martin Truex Jr, Austin Dillon, Ross Chastain and Chase Elliott.
It's nice to see the old track come back to the life. I'm hoping NASCAR comes back there in some way, whether it's the Truck Series, the Xfinity Series, or maybe the Cup Series.
Cool video. Love Dale Jr. That gap in the wall in turn 4 is concerning. Remember the Michael Waltrip crash where the car ripped in half catching a gap like that?
I'd have to say I'd love to be a fly on his shoulder,so I could hear what he was saying,but he'd probably knock me off, It's so dang awesome to get to watch Him testing,but I'd really love to see him race 8/31 Thanks DaleJr for getting this place up and running So much history here Luvsnmbr88.❣️🥰
I looked into getting tickets for the upcoming races here. Inexpensive for tickets. I always am afraid to try and get to the tracks because I'm disabled now. My issue I know but the history here is amazing
Soo, how long after the Wilkesboro event may we have to wait to get a glimpse of the creative innovations incorporated into your LMSC? Good luck and have a great time this event will be great and hoping you really have a blast back in a Late Model
I almost like this fly on the wall footage more than episode 1. Kinda wish the music wasn’t in it and Dale and Josh were mic’d up so we could hear what they were talking about…
Love this track........and thanks Dale for all you did to get it back in the picture!
Yes, I'm not sure how much JR's iracing thing had to do with bringing the old girl back but sure seem to be lots of buzz. Very exciting
Hard not to love seeing him put those iconic gloves back on!
I find it kind of comical, that JR, is there to test tires. His firesuit says G. oodyear, but the car has Hoosiers on it. I can't wait to see him race in competition, again. GO JR!!!
Something about seeing Dale Jr in the car makes everything seem okay in this world...
I couldn't have said it better .
Agreed
It's oddly comforting. With alot of things going on in the world that we can't understand. This, I think we all can understand. It just makes sense.
You couldn't be any more correct
Yes a great diversion from democrats eating babies and drinking adrenochrome!!
Dear Nascar, please bring tracks like this back!
YES! Rockingham should be next
People need to start attending the short tracks on the schedule now for that to happen.
@@RacingVagabond NASCAR needs to stop price gouging for fucking tickets
@@billmadison2032 If you want to see price gouging, look at F1. NASCAR is overpriced, but they’re not that bad.
@@RacingVagabond f1 has always been an elitist sport.
Wow, Sr.’s intensity in those eyes.
Love to see the rebirth at this track. Truly awesome!
Just wanna say, what a badass way to spend a day…I’d imagine…
Dale, Jr looks like he is having a blast!
Very, very cool .... must bring back a lot of memories. Alright, now, Jr. ..... give us some lap times, please .....
Looked like a perfect day to test.
I think it's great that your helping in making this track to come back to life once again. Please keep it up thank you dale
Dale is living his best life and im here for it. Can’t wait for the 31st
Yeah. I think with all he's doing he's having more fun than he was during his Cup career.
North Wilkesboro is a Phoenix that rise from its ashes. Glad its back on the map. Always a classic short track bar none.
The entire front straight should be renamed the Dale Earnhardt Jnr stand, for all that he has done from the days of planning to scan the track, to its full real life racing revival. A major salute to you Dale, as far as Im concerned you are the face of Nascar mate.
I second that!
No arguments here.
10-4

Proud of Jr for helping bring this much beloved track back!
Thanks Dale for all you do, love that sound, so sweet to hear again at North Wilksboro. 🏁
This is almost like going back in time . Enjoying these podcast.
Give me hope for the return of my all-time favorite track, Rockingham.
I'm so glad to see this my daughter goes to App State in Boone and every time I go visit I think about north wilksboro because I go right bye there and remember the days they raced there glad to know it's being brought back to life that's awsome
Listen to those tones that car makes raw power 🔋 👌
Hearing that bad boy fire gave me chills. Welcome back to the track baddy
Wild how much camber is put in the left front on a short track. I never realized it was so dramatic. Awesome stuff!
Get it baby!!!!!!! I love that you get to do this in your iconic sundrop#3. Much love for the earnhardts!
still lookin good out there Jr... best wishes
I've watched this a couple times....so glad to see 2 legends together! It always makes me happy seeing Jr in a car!

Something nostalgic about seeing Jr in a car! Takes me back to my grandparents house as a kid watching Jr race Daytona.
This makes my heart feel good ❤️🏁
Wasnt the biggest Jr fan when he was in cup but what he has done since then has made me regret that.
Great to see some life back at Wilkes.
I drove up there a while back just to see this track. I can't wait to watch a race here and Hickory 😁
This is the Real Deal ! When it comes to history of NASCAR. This one and THE ROCK ! I will be there !
Oh, that glorious sound....
Such a simple but yet satisfying vlog. Love seeing what it takes to prep for this upcoming race. I miss this racetrack and I really hope it doesn’t disappoint.
to me, it was a Sad Day when Jr retired, I understand why, But would've been nice to see him Run another Season. Good Luck Dale we'll all be watching!
North Wilkesboro has so much history. I can only imagine catching an actual NASCAR race there
I feel the same way about Salem, IN.
It was something back in the day! Miss those days
August 31st is gonna be freaking awesome
Thank you Mr Earnhardt............

AWESOME! looks like that car is a little 'slideways' coming out of the corners!
Awesome. Would be cool to see Dale, Josh and Carson all on track at same time.
I miss seein Dale Jr race in cup he was awesome and my favorite in nascar along with Tony Stewart. Both of them were awesome and one and two favorites in nascar. Now my favorites in nascar are Martin Truex Jr, Austin Dillon, Ross Chastain and Chase Elliott.
Dale calling the car "flighty" with all that camber... The preload on the front end must be massive, lol. YEEHAW!! That looks like a ton of fun!
Josh Berry will be his crew chief
It's nice to see the old track come back to the life. I'm hoping NASCAR comes back there in some way, whether it's the Truck Series, the Xfinity Series, or maybe the Cup Series.
i love these types of videos
Such a beautiful place
I liked Jr putting the hood down when the drone shot got in close ... keep them eyes away from what we got !
Cool video. Love Dale Jr. That gap in the wall in turn 4 is concerning. Remember the Michael Waltrip crash where the car ripped in half catching a gap like that?
Thanks for the great ride. All you needed was the Eury's and Fatback to crew chief.
I wonder who had the better time around the track, dale or Josh
Dale for sure! But I am sure Josh also had a blast!
Absolutely BAD ASS!!!
Good to see bring it back to Life N.W.🤘
never seen dale jr in shorts before today
Lol. He got some white legs. 🤣🤣. Love you Jr. Jr Nation for life.
Your Rocking It Jr.
well done! Thanks for sharing.
All that’s missing is Junior Jhonson hanging in the pits with Jr. You know he is smiling down on this.
He does it very well
Love the intro music. Very much like Khruangbin.
Well done Dirty Mo.
I'd have to say I'd love to be a fly on his shoulder,so I could hear what he was saying,but he'd probably knock me off,
It's so dang awesome to get to watch
Him testing,but I'd really love to see him race 8/31 Thanks DaleJr for getting this place up and running
So much history here Luvsnmbr88.❣️🥰
I wish I could watch also. Not even financially feasible.
@@hizgrase I know me too,I'm homeless, can't afford anything
@@pamelamaloy9778 been there my friend. Prayers.
@@pamelamaloy9778 please stay safe. What city you in?
I went there with my dad when RJR VIPs got Holly Farms chicken dinners top row SFL! I’m going!
I looked into getting tickets for the upcoming races here. Inexpensive for tickets. I always am afraid to try and get to the tracks because I'm disabled now. My issue I know but the history here is amazing
It’s time to come home Nascar.
Interesting behind the scenes video
That LF camber 😲
Hopefully JR figured out the hydration system in that ride.
Great job
Never noticed or knew of the downhill pit exit before. The old place could use a coat of paint but the race car didn't seem to mind. 8:39
Great video. Nice to see life back in one of the cornerstones of NASCAR. Dale Jr testing a late model for the racing at the end of the month?
Dang! Is that the first time Dale Jr EVER wore shorts 🤣 get some sun on them sticks brother!
Damn dale get some sun on those chicken legs
I think this is the first time I've seen Jr. in shorts!
Love it
being a fly on the wall means you overhear the conversation, which you can't...
Soo, how long after the Wilkesboro event may we have to wait to get a glimpse of the creative innovations incorporated into your LMSC? Good luck and have a great time this event will be great and hoping you really have a blast back in a Late Model
If you build it... they will come!
If i could only make that my ring tone. No better sound!!
that was a cool program
Jr is such an old man now lol that belly and sun hat🤣🤣
It is like Major League Baseball’s connection with the Field of Dreams. NASCAR All-Star race at North Wilkesboro in 2023?
Jr, looks good back in his office.
Nothing better than a homecoming.
Welcome home Junior.
nascar needs more short tracks like this. too bad rockingham is gone.
The most dangerous aspect of this project are the UV rays from the sun. Holy smokes, talk about white legs on everyone! 🤣🤣
JUNIOR!!!!!
His dad would be so proud
Big fan of Josh Berry. Noticed his name on the car.
The music rocks
I almost like this fly on the wall footage more than episode 1. Kinda wish the music wasn’t in it and Dale and Josh were mic’d up so we could hear what they were talking about…
Love that dale still has the hunger. Listening to the engine during the test sessions is like ear porn.
Is it just me or is anyone else diggin the Vegas lounge music soundtrack while Dale's running?
Is that Pops I see?
Do you think they'll put soft walls around this track? I really don't see the need.
Would you ever consider turning some laps in a Cleetus McFarland hosted 100 lap crown vic race?
what's the deal with the tire shortage are they going to b able to race on 31st
Ron Jeremy approved music bed
Why aren't the Eury's there helping you
Hail to the chief.....
Would Nascar require safer-walls be installed before coming back to racing at North Wilksboro & Rockingham?
bring the track back..bring jr back with it. un retire.
Love the download but this video is like being in a elevator for 14 minutes get some new background music or something
