But he did it under one condition – the son had to do the work. With the help of his friend, Wesley Sherrill, Junior got his shot at Myrtle Beach Speedway, a track he was very familiar with from four years of late model competition. In fact, Dale Jr. competed in the late model race at Myrtle Beach the same day of his Nationwide Series debut. His introduction to NASCAR was a successful one, as he qualified the No. 31 Mom 'n' Pop's Chevrolet seventh and finished 14th just in front of Jeff Fuller, Chad Little and Phil Parsons. Following the race Dale Jr.'s uncle, Danny Earnhardt, called Dale Sr. and reported with confidence and conviction, "The boy can drive." 1/24th Scale Monte Carlo Action Elite Car and Display Box and Sleeve all in Excellent Condition Never Displayed Shipping Via FedEx Multi-purchase discount is $6.00 for each additional car shipped together with the first.
