Dale Earnhardt Jr. on Life at Full Speed at MODEX 2026
Start your engines because MODEX 2026 is bringing some serious horsepower to the keynote stage! NASCAR legend Dale Earnhardt Jr. is joining us for a fast‑paced, candid conversation about life in the driver’s seat and everything that happens once the checkered flag drops.
Dale Jr. may spend more time in the booth these days, but he has not hung up the racing gloves for good. Just days before MODEX, he will be back on the track at the Nashville Fairgrounds Speedway for the CARS Late Model Stock Tour event debut, bringing that same passion and momentum to the MODEX stage.
In this keynote, Dale Jr. will share personal stories about growing up in a family synonymous with American motorsports, the lessons he learned from his father, and the twists, turns, and triumphs of his own racing career. The conversation will go deeper than racing as he will share insights on leadership, resilience, carrying a legacy, and navigating life at full speed.
Whether you are a longtime NASCAR fan or simply love hearing from someone who has lived an extraordinary life, this keynote promises authenticity, inspiration, and memorable storytelling.
