With UFC fan favorite Chael Sonnen driving the pace car this weekend at Phoenix International Raceway, two-time Daytona 500 winner Dale Earnhardt Jr. offered driving tips to the light heavyweight during a Wednesday night visit to UFC TONIGHT on FOX Sports 1: “You’ll be fine. You’re going to go about 60 miles an hour, there’s two walls, just stay in the middle.”

Below are additional quotes from Earnhardt’s appearance on UFC Tonight:

Earnhardt on if he’s into training MMA like his nephew Jeffrey Earnhardt:
“I had a boxing ring for years. And me and my buddies would get in there. We would get in there to go at it for 10 rounds. My cousin wanted to get in better shape and went to train with some guys who were doing it. He did so well, they put him in a fight and he won.”

Earnhardt Jr. on who he’d like to fight in NASCAR:
“I’d like to go against my friends. Martin Truex Jr. Maybe Jimmie (Johnson). That’d be fun to see who would win.”
