Dale Earnhardt, Jr., led the
final 38 laps in the EA Sports 500 Sunday at Talladega
Superspeedway to score his third consecutive victory
at the 2.66-mile track. For his efforts, Junior took
home the Winston No Bull 5 Million Dollar Bonus for
the second time in his career. Junior, who led 56 of
188 laps Sunday, nabbed the lead from teammate Michael
Waltrip for the final time on lap-150, then held off
the single-file freight train of Tony Stewart, Ricky
Rudd and Jeff and Ward Burton to pull the Talladega
sweep in 2002. “We’ve had some good times here,
I’ll tell you that,” Junior said of Talladega.
“I’m wore out. We had a good car. I’m really
surprised that Tony (Stewart) didn’t try to beat me.
I guess it’s hard to pass the leader here at times.
We had good fuel mileage and we won this race because
of the guys on this crew.”
Steve Park Finishes SIXTH!!!!!! YAY STEVE!
