Dale Earnhardt Jr. is an American professional stock car racing driver, champion team owner, businessman, and television analyst for NBC Sports Group. He began his racing career at seventeen years of age with his dad, Dale Earnhardt Sr. He won consecutive NASCAR Busch Series Championships in 1998 and 1999 and the Daytona 500 in 2004 and 2014. Dale lives in Mooresville, North Carolina, with his wife, Amy, and their daughter, Isla Rose.
Dale Earnhardt Jr.’s only authorized book revealing the inside track on his final year of racing and retirement from the driver’s seat.
“Time was running out on my charade… My secrets were about to be exposed to the world.”
It was a seemingly minor crash at Michigan International Speedway in June 2016 that ended the day early for Dale Earnhardt Jr. What he didn’t know was that it would also end his driving for the year. He’d dealt with concussions before, but concussions are like snowflakes, no two are the same. And recovery can be brutal, and lengthy.
When NASCAR star Dale Earnhardt Jr. retired from professional stock car racing in 2017, he walked away from his career as a healthy man. But for years, he had worried that the worsening effects of multiple racing-related concussions would end not only his time on the track but his ability to live a full and happy life.
Torn between a race-at-all-costs culture and the fear that something was terribly wrong, Earnhardt tried to pretend that everything was fine, but the private notes about his escalating symptoms that he kept on his phone reveal a vicious cycle: suffering injuries on Sunday, struggling through the week, then recovering in time to race again the following weekend. For the first time, he shares these notes and fully reveals the physical and emotional struggles he faced as he fought to close out his career on his own terms.
In this candid reflection, Earnhardt opens up about his frustration with the slow recovery, his admiration for the woman who stood by him through it all, and his determination to share his own experience so that others don’t have to suffer in silence. Steering his way to the final checkered flag of his storied career proved to be the most challenging race and most rewarding finish of his life.
Wonderful You don't have to be NASCAR fan who's followed Dale Jr. The entire time he raced to love this book. He tells his story to you so you understand why he retired. I saw and witnessed the crashes, I was always so scared for him, hoping he'd be okay. If he stopped racing after his father passed no one would of blamed him, but he kept going. For the race world then himself. But to kept racing feeling so badly shows his love and passion for the sport. To bring awareness to head trauma so others can find help. As a avid horseback rider in my youth competing in barrel racing ,I took some nasty spills. I struggled in school a lot and makes me wonder if maybe that was the reason? Makes a lot sense now and luckily I don't have any lasting effects. But if I had gotten a proper exam then maybe my high school days wouldn't of been so rough? The book makes you really look back in life and go maybe if? The importance of not waiting, to get help and admit. This ain't right.Dale Jr. I have always been your fan and always will be. In or out the car your a class act. I'm proud to wear your number. Always will be. Happiness always.Great personal insight This book is a humble and honest insight into the life of an individual who has likely carried more fan expectations than anyone in sports. There may be certain personal benefits in telling of certain events that had not previously been told but it is clear this is not the intent of this book. The story reveals Dale's considerable growth as a person and the acceptance of responsibility in using his talents to help others. All the best Dale, on the next Chapter!
