After the race at North Wilkesboro, former NASCAR driver and Hall of Famer Dale Earnhardt Jr reposted an image on Twitter and stated his wish for Kevin Harvick’s Crew Chief.

Rodney Childers had posted a picture of him and Junior after the race at North Wilkesboro Speedway. The track was revived and renovated after efforts made by Junior and his friends.

The once dilapidated short track was brought back up to standards initially for just an iRacing scan. But later on, it was decided to use it as a race venue for late-model stock car racing. Finally, a few days ago, Dale Earnhardt Jr and several other drivers climbed into their cars and went down racing at the iconic short track.

Responding to Childers’ tweet, Junior stated, “Wish you were racing with me last night. Can’t wait to see you behind the wheel again someday.”

Childers has been serving as Kevin Harvick’s crew chief and earlier he was also a racing driver participating in the stock car racing scene. The Crew Chief raced in the NASCAR Busch series with the Jay Robinson Racing team driving the number 49 Chevrolet in the year 2000.
