Good Athlete Vs. “Good Person”: How Much Does This Affect Who Fans Want To Watch?

#88 Crew Chief Steve Letarte Shares His "Favorite Dale Jr. Story"

The answer to this question has long been under debate, but we say YES! Dale Earnhardt Jr. fans appreciate and admire him not just because he is an amazing athlete, but because he practices good moral behavior as well.

In this video, the crew chief of #88 Chevrolet, Steve Letarte shares with us his memories from the May 2011 Sprint All-Star Race. Steve declares what happened that day to be his “Favorite Dale Jr. Story”. This clip is evidence that small, kind gestures go a long way and that Dale’s actions off the track contribute to his large and growing fan base. We here at CARCHEX, and many others would agree with Steve that Dale is “a great guy, great-hearted guy, great racecar driver, and its fun to be around him.”

JR Motorsports taps Coleman Pressley to drive flagship #88 Chevrolet

A third generation NASCAR driver, Coleman Pressley, son of former NASCAR driver Robert Pressley, has been selected by JR Motorsports to jump behind the wheel of the #88 car during the June 5th Nationwide Series race at Nashville Superspeedway.

“We like what we’ve seen in Coleman during his limited time in the Nationwide Series. We’re always looking for young talent and with Jamie [McMurray] out of the car for a few weeks, this gives us the opportunity to put a young guy in there and see how he does. So we’ll have a look at him driving the 88 at Nashville and Kentucky,” said Tony Eury Sr., Crew Chief of the #88.

Pressley has eight career Nationwide Series starts and holds 26 short-track victories. His best finish in a Nationwide event was 15th he received while racing at Darlington with R3 Motorsports.

In addition to the new driver, the #88 will also be sporting a new paint job, featuring JR favorite restaurant, Whisky River and country music star Lee Brice.

CARCHEX, a sponsor of JR Motorsports, would like to wish Pressley and the entire JR Motorsports team the best of luck this weekend at Nashville!
