NASCAR Gets A Boost From Dale Earnhardt Jr.'s Victory

The most popular driver in the Sprint Cup Series ended a four-year drought when he won at the Michigan International Speedway this past Sunday and is second in the points standings. The sport's once-soaring popularity had leveled off.  "It feels good to win and I'll enjoy it," Earnhardt said after the Michigan race, "and in a day or two I'll be thirsty for the next one," he told media.
