I wish both davey and dale were still around

Even after 17+ years with the loss of Dale E, I still miss seeing that black #3 Goodwrench car on the track with 'the man in black' behind the wheel ! Rooted for him since '85 and was devastated (like so many others) when he was killed! Sadly missed ! He was one of my heroes. And now with Dale Jr retired [another one of my heroes], in all honesty, my interest in Nascar racing has plummeted ! Forever a fan of Dale E and Dale Jr. !! No other driver can replace them !

I wish he was still alive. Dale was everybody's hero. My first real vivid memory of nascar was him winning the Daytona 500.

I was born in 91. Racing in my blood. Dad and granddad both lived and breathed GM racing. I was a kid at this time but I remember all this stuff in the background. Remember my dad and his friends talking about why the 3 wasn’t performing. Being able to come back and watch these interviews is amazing to me

Shame that he never got a chance to meet Isla Rose, Amy and enjoy it all.

Larry Mac was in a no-win situation when he was Dale's crew chief. If they had won a bunch of races together everybody would have said, "Well, Dale is supposed to win!" But since they didn't have much success everybody said, "Well, I guess Larry Mac ain't as good as we thought he was." According to Larry Mac's autobiography he & Dale had a chance to talk a few months before his death & Dale told him during their time together he was still suffering from the effects from that Talladega crash from '96 & he felt that he & Larry Mac never got a fair shot with each other.

I will never stop missing him.

It's a shame that Dale didn't get a chance to retire, and win the coveted 8th championship

1/27/21 I will never forget Dale not one day goes by. I MISS him terribly

In 2000, he ended up 2nd place in points, behind Bobby LaBonte. He was on his way to his 8th, but the good lord wanted Dale. Just goes to show, nothing will deny gods will. People say, it was a tragedy. He was killed doing something he loved. He knew the risk involved. He even said, if he was killed riding a farm tractor that flipped over, that’s a tragedy. Dying in a wreck, driving a stock car during a race, wasn’t.

I think it was The Winston one year; 2 heats. Leader of the first starts in the back for the second; that was Earnhardt. In ONE LAP, he was leading the second heat! Never saw such a commanding performance, not even Donohue and the turbo 917.

NASCAR never was the same after Dale died. One of the last guys who drove in a rich sport but acted like just like a regular guy off the track and appealed to the working man. There isn't an enforcer these days, to keep those youngsters in line.

Darn darn darn, I KNOW Dale had that 8th championship coming! After finishing 2nd in the points in 2000, and his last FIVE wins happening in his last two seasons... Dale was back! Had he not died, if he hadn't gotten another championship, he sure woulda made it look good!

He said "age isn't a factor yet, it may be three years down the road", a week before his 46th birthday..its odd that he chose that number.

Never be another like # 3 best of the best. Dale loved racing so much he took it with him on that last turn..

Dale: "It's just not comfortable"

I was never a fan of him ,but I did have respect for him and his talent. Nascar was never the same.

Wish I could find more stuff like this anytime I put in Dale Earnhardt on KZfaq it pulls up his death and all that idc how many times I see it every time I see a video about his death it tire,s me up on inside cause the fact the person he was he knew what it was like to struggle to pay the bills like most of us that works our ass,s off he earned everything he has Dale Earnhardt will always will be my hero

Very humble man.

TNN the Nashville network...the good ol'days. I'm sure where ever Dale went he's showing someone how to drive. Rest in horsepower Mr.Earnhardt.

Dale is still and will always be the man. The day we lost him I was 12 and I cried for so long. I just couldn't believe it.

He was simply himself and real!!!! Will forever love him so!!!! His name will live on!!!! Thank God for his family and friends and being here for us all!!!! He was auto racing and family too!!!!!

Cocky or Driven = it was Driven...

Like everyone else I wish Dale was still here & maybe like in the booth or something but definitely here to help Jr with his career. Dale is the reason why I was a fan of nascar until of course 2001 & then the sport just changed & not for the good really. The good years were in the '90s but they're long long gone

He was the best racer ever, and a good man.

Miss 90s nascar

That’s weird how dale says “4, 5, or 6 years left in Winston cup racing”. Which is realistically about how long he had after this interview. It would’ve been about 4 years until he passed away

He was such a badass.

If he would have never been killed he probably would have retired in 2004-05 I think

Dale Earnhardt #3 forever

I sure miss Dale Sr 😢

I love Dale Earnhardt❤

For Christmas 2000 my wife got me a leather jacket with goodwrench on it, a Earnhardt jacket, I love that jacket and wear it proudly, NEVER liked Austin Dillon, he should NOT have the 3 car that # should have been retired!!!

They’ll never be another one.

❤❤❤🏁🏁🏁

God put Dale Earnhardt Sr in retirment. R.I.P. 3

what year is this

My old man looks like Dale Sr 😂 RIP sir, they don't make racers like you anymore. Godspeed.

and he did win Daytona 2001

So this was 1997. He wanted to race another 5+ years. So that would mean he wanted to race into his early 50's. Not too far past 2001. That is sad....

Boy he rode low in em cars

Larry McRenoylds said “I am human” but you can tell he is a droid did you see him glitching?

Who is the guy giving this interview?

Sure miss him. But not Nascar His last race was mine also.

What year was this?

I truly believe if Dale would’ve lived he would have 8 😢

We miss Dale #3

Am I still sick Larry

he should of switch his helmet he still my favorite driver

greatest of all time

To this day, 2023, Larry McReynolds has a chip on his shoulder. He can say whatever he wants, but I believe he didn't and doesn't like Dale.

You are my hero and had that day not happened you're the one eight or nine Jimmy Johnson would have been s***

I just never really liked the Larry McReynolds and Dale pairing, even though they won a Daytona 500 together they never really could get it done anywhere else and while they may have had a good relationship, they just could never get on the same page. I liked it a lot better when they switched and put Dale with Kevin Hamlin and Larry McReynolds with Mike Skinner and both drivers just had better outings after the switch.

The way he sat in a racecar was different than any other driver - his eye level wasn't much over the dashboard - It had to have contribute to the severity of the accident

Whats the race @ 2:50 where he passin every1 in the pit lane durring wreck what a genius he was

I think Larry got the win at Daytona for Dale.
