    Dale Earnhardt Jr. won't remember much from his 2017 races. He has learned not to dwell on the bad days.

    He will remember the 2017 Daytona 500. It marked his first race back after sitting out the final 18 events of 2016 because of a concussion. He might rue that a spinning Kyle Busch collected him as Earnhardt went from leading the Daytona 500 to out of the race.

    Oh, what might have been had Busch not spun. But the rest of 2017, Earnhardt's last season as a NASCAR Cup driver, has served as one to forget. His current average finish of 21.7 would rank next-to-last in his 18-year career. He sits 22nd in the standings, also on pace as his worst full season except for his terrible 2009 year.
