Dale Jr has an entire array of trophies lined up

In a recent episode of The Dale Jr Download, a fan asked where he keeps his trophies and the ones that are worthy of a display. The 48-year-old started counting his trophies and said that there are some at the Bojangles studio, and quite many at the JR Motorsports headquarters located in the heart of Mooresville.

“All of my most popular driver awards are in this building on different pedestals around and I have a shop on my property that’s full of trophies… Ralph Earnhardt’s trophies are there as well…”

However, Junior sounded especially fond of the trophies that he kept in his house. He added, “The clock from Martinsville, the trophy from Bristol from 2004, both of my Xfinity series championship trophies, both of my Daytona 500 trophies, Chicago win is there, Michigan win is there, Atlanta win is there…” he said.

The number of trophies that he has kept in his house accounts for about a third of his Cup Series wins. One would gape in awe while listening to the impressive collection of the former #88 Chevrolet Camaro driver. Pure adoration resonated from the voice of co-host Mike Davis as he listened to this never-ending list and exclaimed, “That’s a good lineup.”

Recently, a famous sportscaster from NBC delivered another piece of news to the fans of the NASCAR star that had the entire community cheering in unison.
