Dale Earnhardt Junior won at Daytona in the Number 3 car! That is NOT news --
But... what the Announcer says at 47 seconds in this clip IS NEWS !!!
----------------------------
On your side review of Dale Junior's 210 Season so far --
2010
On Saturday, February 6, 2010, Earnhardt, Jr. qualified second overall for the 52nd 2010 Daytona 500 after losing the pole position to teammate Mark Martin. He started 1st in the Gatorade Duel #2 on Thursday, February 11, 2010. He finished 11th in the 2010 Budweiser Shootout after struggling with an ill-handling car for most of the race.
On February 13, 2010 while running in the front of the pack at the Daytona Nationwide Series race, Earnhardt, Jr. was caught up in a multi-car wreck, causing his car to flip upside down on the backstretch. He walked away from the wreck uninjured. His driver Danica Patrick was caught up in another wreck before Earnhardt flipped. With 2 laps to go in the Daytona 500 the following day, Earnhardt, Jr. was able to go from 10th to 2nd in 1 lap but could not pass winner Jamie McMurray, and finished in second place. He was unable to follow up on this strong performance the following week in California when a broken axle left him with a 32nd-place finish, 12 laps down. The next weekend in Las Vegas he qualified 4th for the Shelby American, however after falling a lap down late in the race he could only settle for a 16th place finish. Following another poor finish at Atlanta settling for a 15th place finish. The next weekend at Bristol Dale Jr. started 18th. He slowly made his way up the pace to 5th. Then a speeding penalty on pit road sent him to the tail end of the longest line. He charged his way up the pack to settle for a 7th place finish. He later qualified 8th at Martinsville after qualifying was rained out. After facing some handling problems, he ended up with a 15th place finish. Dale Earnhardt, Jr. qualified 5th for the Subway Fresh Fit 600. Early in the race, Dale Earnhardt, Jr. had a splitter brace issue, that sent him to mid-pack. He later finished 12th. After qualifying 9th in the Samsung Mobile 500, Dale Jr. had a strong car for most of the race, and led 46 laps. However, the 88 slipped back from 3rd to finish 8th on the last restart, after facing a handling issue, and later moved up to 7th in the Sprint Cup points standings. Dale Earnhardt, Jr. was determined to get a good finish at Talladega, and started 7th due to severe weather. Dale Jr. made his presence known by running up front in the early stages of the race, even leading 8 laps. Due to multiple green/white/checker attempts, Dale Jr. slipped back on the final restart and finished 13th. Following this, Earnhardt, Jr. qualified 25th for the Heath Calhoun 400 at Richmond. During the race, Earnhardt, Jr. cut a tire after contact with Paul Menard and Bobby Labonte. Earnhardt never recovered and finished 32nd three laps down, and fell to 13th in the Sprint Cup standings. Dale Jr. didn't have high hopes at Darlington the next week, stating that it would one day cause him to quit racing in NASCAR. Dale Jr. qualified 19th, and although running as high as 5th, Earnhardt, Jr. faced an ill-handling condition, causing him to finish 18th, but move back up into the top 12 in points. On Friday 3-5-10, Dale Earnhardt Jr. won the pole for the Kobalt Tools 500 at Atlanta Motorspeedway and now holds the record for fastest recorded qualifying time of 28.76 in a Car of Tomorrow at 192.8 mph (310.3 km/h). On Sunday, 3-7-10, he ended up with a 15th place finish after tire issues and other mishaps.
On July 2nd, 2010, Dale raced the #3 blue and yellow Wrangler Chevrolet (painted to pay tribute to his father and fans) and drove it to victory lane in the Nationwide Series Subway Jalepeño 250 at Daytona. The next day on July 3rd in the Coke Zero 400 Dale finished in 4th place, improving his position in the point standings from 13th to 11th.

Richard Petty #40 NASCAR Superbird
This is the actual Richard Petty / Pete Hamilton, Roadrunner-Superbird, that was driven to victory at the 1970 Daytona 500, and (2) other Super Speedway Wins by Petty Teammate, Pete Hamilton. In 1969, Plymouth Executives were really stunned, after King Richard jumped ship to Ford! The King wanted an Aero car from Plymouth, like the Dodge Division had created (the '69 Dodge Charger Daytona), but in truth, there was no such planned car, coming from Plymouth in 1969. So, what did the Plymouth Executives do? Of course! They designed and built the Plymouth, Roadrunner-Superbird, to bring Richard Petty, back to the Plymouth fold! The Roadrunner-Superbird before you, was (1) of only (2), that Richard had! This # 40 of Pete's and Richards # 43! On top of Pete Hamilton winning the Daytona 500 and the (2) other Super Speedway wins at Darlington, this is the very car that provided Plymouth with the very 1st, Super Speedway win, for a Roadrunner-Superbird. When the race season ended, Roadrunner-Superbirds or Dodge Daytona Chargers, had won 38 of 47 races and Bill France, decided it was time to end the (2) year, Factory backed, Aero Wars, as these special cars were outpacing the limits of competitors. The 426 Hemi powered Roadrunner-Superbirds and Daytona Chargers, were no longer allowed to compete, unless the racers wanted to compete with no more than 305 cubic inch engines
