Being born the son of a NASCAR legend and growing up in a family full of racecar drivers, Dale Earnhardt Jr.’s life centered on racing. But his wife sought to change that, or at least tone that down, as soon as the duo started dating.

In a recent interview with Danica Patrick in her Podcast, Pretty Intense, Dale Jr. revealed something fascinating.

He opened up about his preference for staying on the trailer during races and never stepping out of the track. However, his wife, Amy Reimann, was not too fond of that lifestyle.

Of course, Reimann put her foot down, and said, “I’m not sitting in this bus all weekend. We’re going to dinner find somewhere to go, where can we go”

Did Amy Reimann convince Dale Earnhardt Jr. to step out?

It seems like Amy Earnhardt’s methods worked. In fact, Dale Jr. even thanks his wife for helping him get out of his comfort zone.
