NASCAR is back and so is Dale Earnhardt Jr. Fans are expecting big things from the #88. What else will happen this weekend? Probably some crashes, heated emotions and Ashley Judd!

Now that Dale Earnhardt Jr is leaving DEI, there is a wake filled with questions. It's hard to say where he'll go, but his decision affects numerous teams, drivers, sponsors and even crew chiefs and pit crew members.
Martin Truex Jr has run well in almost every race this season. The problem is the finishes, which have not always been his making. Based on his driver ratings so far, he could have a much bigger summer.
