It’s hard to believe that even someone with the kind of experience, success, exposure, and means, as Dale Earnhardt Jr. still has some things on his bucket list that he still hasn’t done. One of those things is about going to a racetrack he hasn’t been to yet.

This was something he revealed in an Ask Jr. segment of his podcast show, the Dale Jr. Download.

“I wanna go to Knoxville, haven’t ever been to a race there. I want to go to Knoxville, I want to go to Chili Bowl, I want to go to all things that are going to happen at North Wilkesboro in the future, so that’s a pretty decent list,” Earnhardt Jr. said.

Dale Earnhardt Jr elaborates on what could stop him from racing in the Chili Bowl

In an episode of the Dale Jr. Download, the NASCAR Hall of Famer opened up on his participation and intent on the World of Outlaws races, as well as the Chili Bowl, something defending NASCAR Cup champion Kyle Larson is a regular fixture at.

Earnhardt Jr revealed that he has talked to “a couple of teams” about going to Chili Bowl, but in order to do so, he needs “a purpose” to be there.

Because it’d only be then that he’d feel like he has earned his place in the competition.

“I’m ready to go! I think for me… I like going to a racetrack but it’s hard for me to a track without purpose,” he said. “I could do it, but I’ll feel ‘in the way’. Like I don’t know where I belong.”
