An Ode to a Displaced Father & Son

Rick Hendrick, Dale Earnhardt Jr.

It's an interesting perspective, a father who's lost a son.
A son who's lost his father.

These 2 personalities should know exactly what the other has gone through.
They have an incredible appreciation for each other's deep rooted, ever lasting emptiness.
That's a bond 2 people can never break, no matter what happens to their relationship.
An unspoken kinship.

The fact they've known each other for many a moon doesn't hurt either.

Good luck Rick.
Good luck Dale.
Dale, your father would be proud of you, pulling away from expectations of everyone, and doing what was right for you, for your own independent future, to mold yourself outside of DEI, who I'm sure will go on to be their own namesake someday.

Good luck to all.
I stand in great respect, awaiting what will come next,
and saving my dollars for the new diecasts for Jr.. damnit.
