Rest In Peace Dale Earnhardt Sr. You will forever be missed and a hero in NASCAR history.

'I hated to beat Mike Skinner, but I had to beat him for a million" cracks me up every time

The lack of cell phones in the crowds is amazing, they are so engaged and involved in the outcome of the race waving their arms and hats... such a different time to be alive.

No one will ever be like dale Earnhardt at talladega. Just dominated that track and will always find a way to win from the back. We will never have another driver like dale.

Words cant express how much I miss this man. Nascar needed Dale, without him its never been the same. Hats off to Jr. for doing the best he could to fill his daddies shoes.

I've been alive to see Jimmie Johnson dominate, but I wish I could've seen Dale Sr. race and dominate as well. *R.I.P. DALE EARNHARDT SR.* *1951 - 2001*

"How did he get through all these cars!?" One of the best calls in professional sports.

Man I wish I was alive when he raced, it would have been amazing to watch and is definitely one of the top 3 of all time. R.I.P Dale Earnhardt you were a legend

Man I miss hearing Ken and Ned's announcing and watching those old Lumina bodies..... Yes I'm serious

Even though Jeff Gordon has won 12 restrictor/superspeedway races, the Intimidator WILL ALWAYS BE MR. RESTRICTOR PLATE. Ten interesting facts about Earnhardt's record at Talladega: 1.) The car he swept the races with in 1990 was used in both races at Daytona, almost winning the 500 (still hurts) and winning the Pepsi 400. 2.) He and Darrell Waltrip (1982) are the only drivers to sweep the races on their way to winning the championship. 3.) All-time lap leader in the track's history. 4.) He and Davey Allison are the only drivers to win at Talladega without and with the plate. 5.) Won the Spring event 3 times, and the July/October event 7 times. 6.) Second oldest winner at age 49 behind Harry Gant who was 51 when he won in May 1991. 7.) Despite the Spring event falling on his birthday several times, he failed to win on his birthday. 8.) Only racetrack that he scored at least 10 wins at. 9.) Eight of his ten wins came after the plate was implemented. 10.) Four of his final six career wins came in plate races: 1998 Daytona 500, 1999 Talladega Sweep, and the 2000 Winston 500. We miss you Dale, there will never be another driver with your brash, bold, and skillful maneuvers of what you did in a stock car. I also can't believe you would be 70 this coming April 29th. Thank you for watching over the drivers who suffer violent accidents every weekend.

Dale was The Emperor of NASCAR

The last win at Dega always brings chills

The October Win in 2000, in that Black 3 Car, was the best win on a Superspeedway by the GOAT Superspeedway Driver

Yup . That time was the pinnacle of stock car racing . I've saw every Super Bowl , so I been watchin a long time . The coolest was to grow up in the muscle car era and the bloom of Rock and Roll. Somehow I missed the free love generation. Musta had my head stuck under an SS hood.

The Greatest Of All Time, Dale Earnhardt!

Dale Earnhardt was the king of Talladega!

He really knew how to work that side draft.. better then most

The king of superspeedways

Dales not dead he’s just a lap ahead.

Dale Sr has been a hero to all of us

Every time I watch one of these big E tributes I always wish he'd have got out of the car at the last race of 2000 season completely drained and announced his retirement. Telling all of us he's just gonna focus on DEI and his family. I lost my daddy a few months later so I try not to think about 2001 much.

The Beast of NASCAR History🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

The interesting thing is watching him use the moves and the air back in the 80s and early 90s that they think they have “discovered” over the last decade. Way ahead of his time.

Dale Earnhardt Sr. The best in the bussiness, period💪🏼

I love this video watch it every day😊❤🎉😊. The smoothness of Dale Earnhardt. It’s missing today in NASCAR. I watch the classic races you can still follow Dale that way. Watch Dale win all those championships.!!

"Hate to beat Mike Skinner, but I had to beat em' for a million." RIP DESr.

RIP Dale...He could see the wind in the draft.

Always my hero 🏁 Godspeed

Only one word can describe this; AWESOME!!

The best driver to ever sit in a race car ,sure miss ya Dale!! You'll always be my hero.

The roar of the crowd as Earnhardt takes the lead on the front stretch…he was awesome!

The Intimidator rest in peace

Nobody will ever be that amazing at Talladega again. Kudos my hero.

Such a legend man and always enjoy watching your old races. Sucks you’re gone but rest easy Dale!

Late in his career if Earnhardt didn't crash at talladega you knew he would win or finish in the top 3. I was very fortunate to see him win there late in his career. It was truly the Dale Earnhardt show at talladega back then.

Every one of the finishes as exciting as the day they happened. This fan has a huge smile on her face. We miss you Dale!!!💞💜💞💜

I don't watch Nascar but love the highlights. Same with football. Thx for this compilation, well done. He was a great humble man.

If NASCAR didn’t implement restrictor plates, how good would Dale have been at the super-speedways

If it hadn’t been for him, I’d never been a fan from 1989 till you all went pc correct. I’m glad I seen Chase Elliott win the Championship last year. RIP to you NASCAR.....

Miss ya dale

2000年のタラデガの追い上げが とても好きです！カッコいい！！

That last win I remember the fan he was paired with in the no bull 5 looked just like Dale. His name was Frank and Dale pulled him up on the window sill of the car to celebrate. I'm sure a moment Frank will never forget.

We still miss you Dale.

Best racer of all time 🤷‍♂️

There are some really good drivers (or people in any sport really) these days, many of them superstars... but only a very very few will reach legend status as Dale or Richard did.

*The Goat*

RIP Dale Sr (1951/2001)😥🙏

Watching this today as Jeffery bring the 3 car to Talladega being driven by an Earnhardt again! Get this win JE!

Dale will live on forever. The man is Missed everyday.. R.i.p dale 1951-2001

The Greatest

Dale, Sir, you are the best and we miss you!! R.I.P

It’s sad that there is a thunder storm this Saturday.

Legendary stuff

As a fan of sr.i really wanted to see a 1.2 finish with him and jr in cup like that one iroc race in 2000

lindo vídeo

A man that knew how to drive this racetrack and he won 10 times

See. You dont need a wreckfest or a 3 wide finish to have a good Dega race.

And then his son won it 4 times in a row, a record that still stands.

The best there ever was and will be, plain and simple

Awesome

Great video, though a little sad they took out the tribute to Senna after the '94 win.

Rest in peace Imtiminator

Earnharts win of this race, has to be one of the best races I've watched him race, even above the Daytona 500.! Just wished he would have worn the Hans safety devise that he insisted that his son worn, in future races, maybe we wouldn't have lost Sr. When we did.!

TY. DALE.

1st Win in a FORD😀

@nascar please upload this 1983 race on here or another race from the 80's. The racing was so damn good then!!!

I was born 2 days after Earnhardt's death I wish I could have seen him when he was alive I picked Jimmie Johnson as my favorite driver

The best there ever was

King of Earnhardt talladega house.

Dale sr dominated Talladega

God I miss seeing that black #3 running

I know a lot of people disliked him, the way he could navigate traffic and use every single thing to his advantage...it was impressive. Daytona and Talladega were just tracks where he had something others didn't. I remember my dad cussing and pitching a fit every time something went wrong in the Daytona 500. Then he did it...and Dad wasn't watching...I ran to the garage and told him...and he thought I was playing a joke on him. He saw the news later on and asked why I didn't come get him sooner...and I told him "I didn't want you to jinx it." Plus I was recording it so he got to see it anyway. He didn't find it funny lol.

🐐

Place was his playground

Wonder if Dale spent that last million

Dale Sr. dedicated his 1994 Talladega win to the late Ayrton Senna, whose death happened on just about the same day as that race itself…

Oh man

damn I miss this guy

Spoiler alert Dale SR wins 💪

The Goat Buddy , the Goat , if you never saw him race you missed out especially seeing him live at the track , pure awesomeness and nascar now for several years ain't worth watching, NASCAR SUCKS

He was the best Rip.

lets go

What a legend! Sorry but Earnhardt and Richard Petty didn’t really “compete” against each other. DALE IS THE ABSOLUTE KING OF NASCAR!!

That dude could see air

The original piped piper

👍

Earnhardt talks like my grandpa

the best were both in 99, walking around the outside of that lame 88 both times

Dale driving a T bird? Lol

Besides being the Greatest Driver Of All Time, his dominance at Daytona and Talladega was so much better than any other driver, he was STATISTICALLY MORE LIKELY TO WIN THAN FINISH WORSE THAN FIFTH.

Damnit if he didn't have such rotten luck at Daytona he'd have won about 10 races there as well, shoulda won at least 4 Daytona 500's in the 90's alone...

The late 80s through the 90s was the best era for Nascar. The drivers all had their own personalities, unlike today where everyone is fake as hell (except Kyle Busch who acts like a human being and everyone hates him for it...) They didn't censor themselves to look good to their corporate overlords. They said what was on their mind. Good or bad, it was REAL. Then Jeff Gordon comes along with his squeaky clean image and ruins everything for everyone. After he showed up, the PC era of Nascar began. By the time 2000 rolled around, Nascar was a pathetic shell of its former self. Now it just sucks.
