After Denny Hamlin offered an apology to Chase Elliott, and accepted blame for moving the No. 24 car up the track and into the wall during the closing laps of Sunday’s Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series Playoffs race at Martinsville Speedway; Dale Earnhardt Jr. took the opportunity of his Dale Junior 'Dirty Mo' Radio podcast to confess.
Purely an accident https://t.co/ScRN65VNkM— Dale Earnhardt Jr. (@DaleJr) November 1, 2017
“I’d be surprised if there’s a driver who hasn’t intentionally wrecked somebody in their career.” Then he admitted to wrecking Kerry Lawrence, Stanton Barrett and Kasey Kahne over the years — and lastly Kyle Busch in 2008 at Richmond. The No. 88 driver admitted he was fined for a self-spin at Bristol because he bragged about the strategy play too much afterward.

“As soon as you spin somebody out you know that’s big news. There it goes, the media’s talking about it. Everybody’s gunna be asking you about it. You’re gunna have to talk about it all week.”
On our @DirtyMoRadio podcast we talked Martinsville, intentional wrecking, and the need for more short tracks. #DJDhttps://t.co/26nPHlAaFX pic.twitter.com/YCWrGIx47B— Dale Earnhardt Jr. (@DaleJr) October 31, 2017
Of course that sparked the use of Junior’s hashtag #IWreckedEm on Twitter.
In light of Dale’s humble admissions, I want to be the first to say to anyone I may have wrecked in the past,,,,you probably deserved it https://t.co/RUPM4Rc0qD— landon cassill (@landoncassill) October 31, 2017
