He is the son of NASCAR legend Dale Earnhardt. During his career, Earnhardt Jr. has competed successfully in a number of racing classes and events, is a two-time Busch Series champion (one of 6 people to win back-to-back championships), and was the winner of the 2004 Daytona 500. As of 2007, his primary role is driver of the #8 Budweiser Chevrolet Monte Carlo SS/Impala SS in NASCAR's NEXTEL Cup. Earnhardt, Jr. is also the owner of JR Motorsports, and former co-owner (with stepmother Teresa Earnhardt) of Chance 2 Motorsports. Earnhardt, Jr. was born in Kannapolis, North Carolina to Brenda Lorraine Gee and Ralph Dale Earnhardt, Sr. His maternal grandfather, Robert Gee, was a NASCAR car builder. He began his professional driving career at the age of 17, competing in the Street Stock division at Concord (N.C.) Motorsport Park. His first race car was a 1979 Monte Carlo that he co-owned with older half-brother Kerry. Within two seasons, the young Earnhardt had honed his driving abilities to the point of joining the Late Model Stock Car division. There, he developed an in-depth knowledge of chassis setup and car preparation, while racing against Kerry and Dale's sister Kelley Earnhardt-Elledge. Earnhardt Jr. won consecutive NASCAR Busch Series Championships in 1998 and 1999 over Matt Kenseth.</description><generator>Fwicki.Com - Fwicki Feed Generator</generator><language>en-us</language><image><url>http://www.fwicki.com/images/ui/feed-link.png</url><title>Fwicki - RSS Management</title><link>http://www.fwicki.com/fwickis/NASCAR/Dale-Earnhardt-Jr</link><description>Fwicki - RSS Management</description><width>88</width><height>90</height></image><item><title>Petty feels NASCAR founders should get HOF nod</title><link>http://www.blueridgenow.com/article/20090704/APS/907041104</link><guid>http://www.blueridgenow.com/article/20090704/APS/907041104105</guid><description>Seven-time NASCAR champion Richard Petty believes the inaugural Hall of Fame induction class should include the people who started the sport and not the ones who carried it forward.</description><pubDate>Sun, 05 Jul 2009 02:44:15 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title>RSS Management</title><link>http://www.fwicki.com/</link><guid>http://www.fwicki.com/2</guid><description>&lt;div style="text-align: left; font-family: Calibri, Verdana, Arial; font-size: .70em; font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sponsored Links:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
