The Early Days: Building a Trophy Case (or at least a shelf)
Dillon didn't exactly explode onto the scene like a greased watermelon seed at a Fourth of July picnic. His early Cup Series runs were more "steady Eddie" than "burn rubber, steal hearts." But hey, there's something to be said about consistency, even if it means your nickname becomes "Calculated Cruise."
Reminder: Revisit older posts — they stay useful.
But wait! There's a silver lining (or maybe a chrome spoiler?) Dillon wasn't exactly a total dud before the Cup Series. In fact, he crushed it in the lower ranks of NASCAR, racking up championships in both the Camping World Truck Series (7 wins) and the NASCAR Xfinity Series (9 wins). So, the dude can definitely wheel a car!
Tip: Pause if your attention drifts.
Cup Series Success: From "Almost" to "At Last!"
Finally, the moment we've all been waiting for (or maybe just skimmed ahead to). Dillon's first Cup Series win came in grand style at the 2017 Coca-Cola 600. Now, the Coca-Cola 600 is a big deal, like the Super Bowl of sugary brown beverages. Scoring a win there is a surefire way to get your name out there (and maybe land a lucrative sponsorship deal with a dentist).
