    Dale Earnhardt Jr. earned his fourth win of the season on Sunday at Martinsville Speedway in an emotional victory a week after he was eliminated from the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship.

    Jeff Gordon was second, giving Hendrick Motorsports a 1-2 finish on the 10-year anniversary weekend of the fatal plane crash that killed owner Rick Hendrick's son and nine others aboard.

    "This means so much to all of us," Earnhardt said. "I lost my daddy a long time ago and I know how hard that is. I can't imagine losing the amount of people Rick lost. My heart goes out to him during this weekend. This honors them."

    Too bad Gordon didn't win. He was screwed out of two championships when they went to this new chase crap system. :crazy:
