Lake Speed: Driven By Something Bigger Mar 26, 2025

Show notes

Dale Earnhardt Jr. welcomes former Cup Series driver & 1978 Karting World Champion Lake Speed to the studio to learn about his path from karts to Cup. Without the support of his parents, Lake had to chase the racing dream on his own, and started a karting business out of his house to fuel the fire. After finding success stateside, Lake ventured to Europe to pursue the ultimate achievement in karting: The World Championships. After a few embarrassing first attempts racing internationally, Lake finally won it all in 1978, beating future F1 Champion Ayrton Senna.

After achieving the highest honor in the karting world, Lake shares why he wanted to move to NASCAR, and looks back at the moment he busted his ass in his first handful of laps in a Cup car. Lake opens up on his deep connection to faith, and how he learned to trust the inner voice in his head. Once he started trusting that voice, everything changed for him, and he went on to deliver an impressive second place finish in the Daytona 500 and a win at Darlington several years later. Dale & Lake close out the interview by discussing his relief efforts following Davey Allison’s passing, his fight with Michael Waltrip, and his experience working with the Motor Racing Outreach. Even at 77 years old, Lake still races. That alone should tell you this is a conversation you have to hear.

Tony Gibson: How I Almost Lost Kulwicki A Championship Mar 19, 2025

Show notes

Dale Earnhardt Jr. welcomes longtime NASCAR Cup crew and car chief Tony Gibson to the Download to learn about his path from the short tracks of the Southeast to stock car glory. Growing up in a racing household, in the shadows of Daytona International Speedway, Tony began working on his father Bo Gibson’s cars at an early age. Tony’s older brothers Mark and Pepe also began racing at local strongholds like New Smyrna and Jacksonville and found lots of success at the late model level. Tony explains that Mark’s career advancing into the ARCA and Busch Grand National ranks is what helped get his foot in the door of the NASCAR world. And before long he moved from his family home in Florida to North Carolina to work with Norman Negre -- It was there that Tony made Alan Kulwicki’s acquaintance. Eventually he would follow Alan, from renting part of the Negre shop, to his own AK Racing outfit, where he’d work for several years.

Tony talks about the challenges of working with Alan and the major triumph of winning the 1992 NASCAR Cup Championship as an independent team. He also opens up about the tragic plane crash that claimed Alan’s life and how it changed the culture of the team and NASCAR garage forever. Tony would leave for Georgia, working with Bill Elliott for a time before reuniting with Ray Evernham at Hendrick Motorsports at the famed 24 team. Dale and Tony also discuss his years spent at Dale Earnhardt Inc., Stewart-Haas Racing and his current position at HMS working at Hendrick Tech Solutions.

Show notes

Dale Earnhardt Jr. welcomes the highly requested Carl Edwards on the show to discuss why he retired after 2016, settling old scores between the two of them, his new job at Prime Sports, and much more. After nine seasons without Carl behind the wheel, he opens up to Dale about the true reasons behind his departure, and how he knew it in his soul it was his time to leave. Dale learns about Carl’s introduction to motorsports, and what advice Carl’s cousin Ken Schrader gave him upon signing his first contract with Roush.

Later, Dale Jr. and Edwards look back at their rocky relationship with each other as drivers, where Edwards reveals the text message from Dale that pissed him off the most. Carl reflects on his 2011 Championship run that famously ended in a tie-breaker against Tony Stewart, and the back-and-forth war of words in the media that happened before our very eyes. Carl reflects on his time at Roush Fenway Racing & Joe Gibbs Racing, and shares what kind of teammate he really was behind closed doors. Finally, Carl opens up about why he suddenly walked away from the sport following 2016’s Championship race, and how he has managed his retirement from the sport. The two also talk about what Carl has been up to these days, which includes stories of reconnected family time, to sailing through Europe without a cellphone. One of the most anticipated guests is finally here, and it was well worth the wait.
