Dale Earnhardt and Dale Earnhardt Jr. remain two of the most powerful names in NASCAR merchandise. It's been nearly 23 years since Earnhardt Sr. was killed in the 2001 Daytona 500 and six years since Earnhardt Jr. retired from full-time competition. That has done little to curb the sales of Earnhardt-branded merchandise for members of Junior Nation and fans of The Intimidator.
Both Earnhardts landed in the top-15 drivers with the most "trackside" merchandise sales in 2023, per Sports Business Journal. Earnhardt Jr. lands at No. 10 with his late father at No. 12. Put in perspective, Earnhardt Jr. merchandise bested the sales of some of the sport's current biggest names, including William Byron, Denny Hamlin and Alex Bowman.
NASCAR-branded merchandise led the field, understandably so when you consider that includes race-specific products. NASCAR's Most Popular Driver Chase Elliott placed second ahead of teammate Kyle Larson. Kyle Busch, Kevin Harvick, Martin Truex Jr., Ross Chastain, 2023 champion Ryan Blaney and Joey Logano round out the top 10. While these drivers are still at the pinnacle of the sport and in their heydays, they are still only slightly more popular at the trackside shops than an Earnhardt.
That was a total team effort. The engine guys had optimized the rate Joey could mash the accelerator and use the least fuel to accelerate. Strategy well thought out. First rate chemistry amongst everyone. And Roger Penske is still a badass.ncsupack1 said:
Logano is a master at fuel saving.

He also talked about how Budweiser had full control over that 8 car as far as paint scheme's. They wanted the car to stand out and be consistent. When you got to the track and the race started you knew how and where to find the 8.ncsupack1 said:Glasswolf said:That's pretty awesome. Saw him talk about it on his Dirty Mo show.ncsupack1 said:

I'm not a Logano fan, but, the guy is good…TheStorm said:
Cary tried to tell us...
Good race yesterday, while I have to say that I hate a race winner solely on gas mileage and almost no real tire falloff, that's the only way that someone like Logano wins a race like this... and it's the playoffs so you have to do whatever you have to do.
Feel bad for Bell, he was the class of the field... Byron had another good points day too, so I'm okay with that.
Yes it was…TheStorm said:

I don't know the story behind the Bowman Grey win so I have no opinion on that one.
Justin Allgaier is returning to JR Motorsports next year having signed a contract extension that carries through 2026.

Harvick also mentioned maybe Vegas could host it. I think MRN and PRN are merging maybe at years end. Vegas would be a good one, but I have a hard time seeing NASCAR giving up a event to SMI.
