VIDEO: NASCAR driver Dale Earnhardt Jr. talks about his first win as car owner with veteran driver and mentor Mark Martin.
Update:
Q. Why is this being called his first win as car owner, when he was listed as co-owner on the #8 Busch car?
A. Couldn't say, except for if he thinks like I do, he probably considered himself a CINO (car owner in name only) before. The #8 DEI car that Martin Truex Jr. drove for two championship seasons was owned by DEI--an existing team at the company his father built.
On the other hand, Junior built JR Motorsports from the ground up. This is HIS team. This was HIS first win. Not DEI's ... not Teresa's.
