North Wilkesboro, N.C. — Dale Earnhardt Jr. will return to one of NASCAR's classic tracks on Wednesday when he competes in the CARS Tour Late Model Stock race at North Wilkesboro Speedway.
“I’m nervous about going there and knowing whether we can compete, but it really doesn’t matter in the end,” Earnhardt told NBC Sports. “I just want to cross the finish line and drink a cold beer.”
His No. 3 Chevrolet will be sponsored by Sun Drop soft drink, one of Earnhardt's early sponsors.
