Never dreaded it. Congrats to the #24 is what I say. His fans need to remember though that the #3 had Seven Championships in those 76 wins, not Four. It seems his fans looked forward to it alot more than it was perceived we 'dreaded' it.
I think what stands out on this list is Pearson who only drove full-time like three years.� Just imagine if he had stuck around like Petty, Waltrip, Earnhardt and the rest.
A good article on Jeff and Dale Sr's career....... http://sports.yahoo.com/nascar/news;_ylt=Agh2WtF0b0urIWoIHUdYD3zov7YF?slug=db-statsgordonearnhardt042107&prov=yhoo&type=lgns

Gordon's comments: "I had so much fun racing with Dale and I miss him a lot out there," Gordon said. "To do something he has done in this sport is pretty overwhelming for anybody, and it is for me.
"I can't believe that we've won 76 races, and, you know, it feels good to get back into Victory Lane and just to be able to hold that flag."
