NASCAR THIS WEEK
By
Monte Dutton
Earnhardt Jr.
Still a Winner With Fans
At the moment, there is no
direct correlation between popularity and
performance at NASCAR’s level.
Dale Earnhardt Jr., who won a
fan vote to become the Sprint Cup Series’
Most Popular Driver for the eighth year in a row,
finished a mere 21st in the point standings. The
season wasn’t without its high points:
Earnhardt had a pole, three top-five finishes and
eight top 10s. He failed, however, to make the
Chase for the second time in as many years and a
fourth time in the past six.
The third-generation driver --
father Dale won seven championships and
grandfather Ralph was a legendary short-track
champion -- has won just one Cup race in the last
four seasons.
"My fan base has stayed
strong," said Earnhardt Jr. " It’s
become an important honor each year for me, and
I’m glad that fans still feel their support
for me. I appreciate their dedication and
loyalty."
Believe it or not, Earnhardt
isn’t the all-time leader in Most Popular
Driver awards. Bill Elliott, still active at age
55, won the award 10 years in a row and 16 times
overall before "withdrawing from
consideration" after claiming the award for
the 16th time in 2002.
The latest attempt to get
Earnhardt back "up to speed" is a
change of crew chiefs. Three of the four drivers
at Hendrick Motorsports will be matched with
different crew chiefs. Steve Letarte, formerly
with Jeff Gordon, will now direct
Earnhardt’s efforts. Lance McGrew moves to
Mark Martin’s team, and Alan Gustafson will
now work with Gordon.
For obvious reasons, the
pairing of five-time champion Jimmie Johnson with
Chad Knaus will remain intact.
Earnhardt’s star has
dimmed since he finished third in the 2003
standings and won a career-best six races the
following year. He hasn’t won more than a
single race in any season since. His career
victory total, 18, ranks him in a tie for 38th
place all-time.
