CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) -- It took less than four laps for Dale Earnhardt Jr. to feel back at home in his race car. His test this week at Darlington Raceway was the final hurdle for NASCAR's most popular driver to earn clearance to compete next season.
The test ended months of speculation - should Earnhardt retire? Was the risk of suffering yet another concussion too great? - and a detailed medical plan helped get him back on the track when many thought he should just step away for good.
''When you get something taken away from you, you certainly realize what it's worth,'' Earnhardt said Friday. ''I'm feeling recharged and energized about coming back ready to race. I've got a lot left in the tank.''
And he wants to make something perfectly clear: Earnhardt would not be climbing back into the No. 88 Chevrolet if his doctors had not assured him that he's healthy and his past concussion history hasn't put him at a heightened risk of permanent injury.

**shaunovery** · 12-13-16, 10:12 AM

**Auto Donk** · 12-19-16, 10:03 PM

nascar.com runs a real money fantasy league?

**yisman** · 12-25-16, 12:00 AM

Money league? They can barely run their fuk'in site, Donk.

Weird ass format, several glitches early on, even logging on could sometimes be a bitch! Don't know if it's improved much.

**reigle9** · 12-26-16, 02:59 PM

I hate their site. You have to dig for results after the race, when it should be in giant bold letters on the front page.

**yisman** · 12-26-16, 11:59 PM

what about the sponsor?

totally agree with this..... I missed dozens of races this year, and could never find a race recap/rewind of the 15 min variety to fill me in.....

always wound up on youtube, having to fight through 2-3 years worth of recaps, fall vs. spring recaps, etc., just to see who won the f'n race.....

The short race recap vids go up day after the race.

They have added a page linking to official full race replays on youtube themselves now too http://www.nascar.com/en_us/youtube-race-replay.html

**Auto Donk** · 12-28-16, 09:44 AM

those are pretty nice..... let the "professionals" handle it, i guess....

**yisman** · 12-28-16, 11:58 PM

yeah nascar.com is poorly designed and they tend to make things worse upon upgrades..

Indeed, we all know what happens when a site like nascar.com decides to do "upgrades" Uggg! In this day and age you'd think these guys would have some state of the art shit running.

I want Dodge back in NASCAR. Ask the King for #44 and slap it on a charger AND lets go!! Driver qualifications - must be an Aries, always mad as a wet hornet, enjoys green olives, and is never afraid of the wall.
