Hell yeahhhhh brother! Dale Earnhardt Jr. welcomes Cleetus McFarland back to the Download on the heels of his polarizing NASCAR Trucks Series debut. The beloved YouTube content creator and part-time ARCA competitor joins the show to share some big news: he’s moving up in the world of stock car racing. McFarland explains that he recently received an offer to join Richard Childress Racing for select O’Reilly Auto Parts Series starts over the next two seasons. The team is eager to work with McFarland to help give him proper seat-time experience and training to help unlock the racer he has shown glimpses of being. He will take his next step at an upcoming test at Rockingham before making his series debut at the track on April 4th. Cleetus recently garnered negative attention when he crashed out early from his Trucks series debut at Daytona, a move brought on by a lack of experience and lap time. Dale Jr. explains that while he is moving quickly into his racing career, the incident has happened to even veteran racers such as himself. He goes on to reassure Cleetus that the training and education he’ll receive at RCR will expedite his growth as a racer, giving him information he’d never be able to gain in the ARCA ranks. The guys also discuss the inherent danger that comes along with Cleetus’ stunt work, the prospect of going late model racing and even share a little liver mush snack.
