On Tuesday, NASCAR revealed their inductees for the 2021 Hall of Fame class. There are three names on the list: Mike Stefanik, Red Farmer and Dale Earnhardt Jr.
Earnhardt received 76% of votes cast in his category according to ESPN.
He said, “Just talking about it, it’s really emotional because I feed off affirmation. It’s such a great feeling to know people think I made an impact. I know what my numbers are, and I feel like I was chosen because of that, but also for the impact I made off the track, being an ambassador for the sport.”
Additionally, Ralph Seagraves was named the Landmark Award winner for his contributions to the sport.
