The legend of # 3 Dale Earnhardt was restored today as Austin Dillon put #3 in the winning circle again. It was quite an ironic feat that when NASCAR fans were complaining that there were too many new faces that one restored the classic # 3 in a spectacular fashion. Dale Earnhardt is to NASCAR as Jack Nicklaus is to golf but with a bit more Red Bull behind him. Part of the pull of this incredible sport is not just the speed but the people behind the wheel and today a legend was born again but with a different name Austin Dillon yet the same powerful number #3. Whether Austin Dillon keep the name going is yet to be seen but tonight old and young fans of NASCAR both celebrate his victory.
