Dale Earnhardt Jr. ‘s free-agent price tag just might be rising as fast as his qualifying speeds. With his crew chief suspended and contract negotiations for next season still ongoing, nothing seemingly has served as a distraction of late on the track for the surging Earnhardt. Earnhardt almost had a pole to celebrate until he was bumped off late Friday by Ryan Newman for the top spot for Sunday’s race at Dover International Speedway. Newman (Dodge) followed last week’s front-row start with his second straight pole and 40th overall with a lap at 152.925 m. p.h. http://www.autoracingdaily.com/7599/
