RIDGEWAY, Va. -- Sunday at Martinsville Speedway, Dale Earnhardt Jr. led his Hendrick Motorsports teammates to the checkered flag.
But it was Amy Earnhardt who led the entire field to the green flag.
Named the honorary pace car driver, she piloted a pink Chevrolet SS to start the race. And thanks to NASCAR.com, you can go inside the pace car along with her in the video above.
Both Dale and Amy Earnhardt posted photos from the memorable event on their Instagram accounts, which can be seen below.
Martinsville Speedway FTW! Thanks for such an awesome experience! Driving the pace car was is incomparable to any other @nascar experience I’ve had! Special thanks to MT & Joey for taking it easy on me.
