In the 500 lap race at Famed “Paperclip” race track in Martinsville, Dale Earnhardt Jr. finally won his coveted Grandfather Clock! In a race that included 24 lead changes, 15 cautions and 2 red flag stoppages for clean up, it was Earnhardt Jr. who passed Tony Stewart and held of Hendrick teammate Jeff Gordon and Joey Logano to take the checkered flag!
