The Cup Series has seen some extraordinary racers but not many can come close to Dale Earnhardt Sr. Of course, winning the championship at the highest level seven times takes some talent. However, with him, it was more than just trophies. His aggressive style of driving is what earned him fans’ love and respect.

Call it a coincidence or a well-planned gimmick but Junior recently took the opportunity to make a special announcement before the Talladega race on Sunday. The 2x Daytona 500 winner was seen in a promotional video wherein he teased the audience.
