Show Notes

Dale Earnhardt Jr. is back in the Bojangles Studio to break down the closest finish in NASCAR Cup history. While the finish at Kansas between Kyle Larson and Chris Buescher had viewers on the edge of their seats, it sparked a debate on how photo finishes are governed and more:

  • Which start/finish line is the real one?
  • Transponders vs. the line vs. the camera
  • Mile-and-a-half tracks have been great; do we need more on the schedule?
  • Short tracks continue to be on the chopping block moving forward
  • Dale's broadcasting plans for 2025
  • Kansas second-place finisher Chris Buescher calls in


During the Ask Jr. portion of the episode, listeners sent in questions regarding:

  • Dale seeing Kasey Kahne at dinner
  • Dale’s silver Goodyear car from winning the NASCAR Busch Series Championship
  • Multiple tire compounds for North Wilkesboro
  • The secret to finding the best bathroom before a race
  • NASCAR implementing a push-to-pass system like IndyCar
