Hendrick Motorsports’ Dale Earnhardt Jr. showed flashes of the form he’s lacked for much of the season in Sunday’s NASCAR Sprint Cup race at New Hampshire Motor Speedway.

Earnhardt Jr., who surged as high as third and engaged in a fierce battle with Penske Racing's Kurt Busch for second in the race’s middle stages, ultimately slipped to 13th in the rain-shortened event as his car’s handling grew tight.

“Being around fifth and looking at the top five, that was great,” said Earnhardt
Jr., who hasn’t been to victory lane since last June at Michigan. “Seeing the leaders most of the day in your windshield is better than where we have been. The restarts were kind of tough. I like the double-file restarts, but man, if you are on the inside, you are going to lose a couple of spots every time.

“We were on the inside the last three [restarts] and we lost the opportunity to run in the top five, got shuffled back to just inside the top 10. We had a good car, good run.”
