"Honestly when we first went to the racetrack and were in the environment around race fans I didn’t really know what to expect but I was blown away and I was scared at the same time. Scared of like misstepping scared of getting lost, scared being in the wrong place the wrong time and getting stepped on or pushed out of the way I don’t know.”

On the racing side, Earnhardt Jr. won two Xfinity Series championships back-to-back in 1998 and 1999.
