Return of the "3"

Because he was smart enough to know that by doing so would set the bar of expectation too high for anyone to reach, and he wants to stand on his own accomplishments. Others will say it's because Childress owned the number. I don't think that Childress is such an A-hole that if Jr. wanted to run it, he wouldn't have given it to him.

That seems like the most likely choice. I think Jr. sister (forgot her name) also had a say in this, probably told Jr. that he needed to make his own name and brand out there and not borrow from dad.

October 22, 1989: AC Delco 500
Mark Martin survives a rash of caution flags and notches his first career NASCAR Winston Cup win in the AC Delco 500 at Rockingham. Championship contenders Rusty Wallace and Dale Earnhardt tangle midway through the race, causing major damage to Earnhardt's Chevrolet. Wallace now has a 109-point lead over Earnhardt in the standings just because DALE didn't finish the race doesn't mean that rusty didn't run into him.
