My Take
Dale Jarrett strikes me as the kind of driver who earned everything the slow, honest way. Three Daytona 500 wins and a 1999 Winston Cup championship are not flukes; they are the harvest of patience. I like that he came out of Conover, North Carolina, as the son of two-time champion Ned Jarrett, and then translated that hard-won track sense into a second career as an NBC commentator. Drivers who can explain the sport as well as they ran it are uncommon, because feel rarely converts into words. His North Carolina Hall of Fame induction feels earned. I have a soft spot for these self-made racers.
