Charlotte Oct 2011

Charlotte is tomorrow night and many people say it's over for Dale Jr's championship hopes. In the immortal words of Bluto, "What? Over? Did you say "over"? Nothing is over until we decide it is! Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Hell no!"

There is still six races left and I for one will not give up until the checkered flag falls on Homestead.

Charlotte was a done deal on Memorial Day weekend. Junior was headed for his first win since 2008 and I was standing and cheering. Then his car slowed, his engine sputtered and he coasted home with no fuel and a seventh place finish. Tomorrow will be better. Tomorrow has to be better.

Today in practice Junior looked and sounded good on the final runs of Happy Hour. I believe, as I always do, Charlotte will be a good night for us - his fans.

Remember TOMORROW NIGHT - NOT SUNDAY! To see Dale Jr break his winless streak and start a charge to the Cup only an Earnhardt could pull off.
