Dale Earnhardt Jr. returns to the Bojangles Studio after a chaotic NASCAR Cup race at Texas Motor Speedway for another edition of Dirty Air. Not only did NASCAR put on a weekend of excitement in the Longhorn State, but Dale Jr. was behind the wheel himself:

• Dale Jr. recaps his CARS Tour race at New River
• Texas is back! Just give it some time…
• Who was wrong, Chastain or Byron? 
• We’re talking ‘bout practice! NASCAR Cup drivers are elite, so do they need it?
• Race winner Chase Elliott calls in

During the Ask Jr. portion of the episode, listeners sent in questions regarding:

• Sharing SMT data - is it good or bad?
• Beer: bottles or cans?
• What did Dale Sr. do to prepare for races? You won’t want to miss the two Intimidator stories involving a bulldozer and a chainsaw.
