Dale Earnhardt Jr 2025 Budweiser Speedway Classic 1:24 Raw Late Model Stock Car Diecast

Dale Earnhardt Jr. provided race fans an unbelievable moment when he secured a NASCAR Cup Series® victory at DAYTONA Inter national Speedway® in July of 2001. Just five months after one of the darkest days in the sport’s history, Dale Jr. brought smiles back to his family and NASCAR® fans alike by driving a special No. 8 Chevrolet to DAYTONA® victory lane.

Making Dale Jr.’s remarkable win even more special was the partnership that adorned his car. Longtime sponsor Budweiser backed Dale Jr.’s No. 8 car with a unique livery that promoted that season’s Major League Baseball All-Star Game. With baseball stitches and an unmistakable baseball player adorning the sides, the combination of Dale Jr.’s car and his trip to the winner’s circle became one of the most iconic NASCAR® moments.

Now, in 2025, Dale Jr. is bringing the memories of his Daytona win back to the track – and to the ball field. Once again, the iconic Budweiser livery will feature baseball elements, just like it did in 2001, on Dale Jr.’s Late Model Stock Car in the August CARS Tour race at South Carolina’s Anderson Speedway.

At Anderson, Dale Jr.’s No. 8 Budweiser Chevrolet Late Model will spotlight August’s Speedway Classic baseball game that will take place at Bristol Motor Speedway. The same pinstripes, ballplayer, and more elements that were on Dale Jr.’s car at Daytona in 2001 will once again ride along in this return to the track.
