Dale Earnhardt Jr. reflects on his lifelong connection to Daytona, from growing up at the track to racing in the Daytona 500 and competing alongside his father in the Rolex 24, while also sharing insight on the next generation of NASCAR stars and the future of driver development. On this episode of SPEED With Harvick and Buxton, Kevin Harvick and Will Buxton sit down with Earnhardt Jr. to discuss what Daytona means to him after all these years, how the experience of racing there has evolved, his memories of competing with his father at the Rolex 24, whether he wishes he had raced more outside of NASCAR, his thoughts on rising talents like Connor Zilisch, and how development paths differ between stock car racing and open-wheel series.
