INDIANAPOLIS — Dale Earnhardt Jr. felt fit enough to force 400 miles Sunday.
It was the engine that broke down.
After battling a craving virus the previous three days, Earnhardt looked and sounded more like himself - including the latest cause for another run of bad luck. The popular driver ran in the top 10 most of the day until a blown motor with 33 laps to go dropped him to 36th, a mishap Junior blamed on himself.
"We haven't had locomotive problems, so I assume it was driver error," he said. "I flat the valve train on the last pit stop and a couple of the pieces dropped to the bottom of the motor. They rattled around and must have blown the appliance."
The No. 88 car was not in question entering Sunday.
Earnhardt started third and his way speeds were good enough to crack the top 10.
