TODAY Fathers Day, check out Junior's Tribute paint scheme
WOW not your Budwoozer red (On your local FAUX channel unfortunately).

Budweiser honors the Earnhardt family’s three generations of NASCAR success this Father’s Day with a “NASCAR History” ad showcasing original imagery representing more than 50 years of the family’s racing legacy and Budweiser’s long-time support for auto racing. The 60-second ad will debut Friday on Budweiser.com, and will premiere on national television during Sunday’s broadcast of the 3M Performance 400 from Michigan International Speedway at 1 p.m. ET on FOX.

The spot melds black and white images of six-time NASCAR Sportsman Series champion Ralph Earnhardt racing a cream-colored 1955 Chevrolet, followed by the contrasting black No. 3 Goodwrench car of “The Intimidator,” Dale Earnhardt, a seven-time NASCAR series champion. Finally, the ad brings into the fold the No. 8 Budweiser car driven by NASCAR’s only third generation champion, Dale Earnhardt Jr., seamlessly relating how the Earnhardts, NASCAR and Budweiser have come a long way together over the past 50 years.

2. And in other manly sports news of the day
At the NHRA oven baker in NJ, Top Fuel driver "Hot Rod" Fuller managed to stop former champion Larry Dixon's incredible streak of five consecutive Father's Day victories Sunday by beating Dixon in the final of the 37th annual K&N Filters NHRA SuperNationals presented by Strauss Discount Auto. Fuller was joined by Funny Car's Ron Capps, Pro Stock's Jason Line, and Pro Stock Motorcycle's Matt Smith in Old Bridge Township Raceway Park's winner's circle.

Fuller's Valvoline rail went straight down a hot and greasy quarter-mile in 4.692 seconds at 314.24 mph to beat Dixon's tire-hazing 4.825 at 299.73 mph. Capps took an emotional holeshot win over teammate and reigning series champion Gary Scelzi, 5.025 to 5.012. Line went wire-to-wire in beating Dave Connolly for his third straight E-town win, while a dead-late Smith managed to catch and beat Karen Stoffer for his first NHRA win.
