I was 9. chokes me up every time. Time stops when I think about it. I watched every race up to that race. Not many after that day. I remember starting at the TV nothing else mattered had to know what happened. Had no idea at what I watched with his death and waltrips win until years later. I feel so bad for dw. Now if I watch nascar it's pre 2001

(#3) Dale Earnhardt "Forever" !

21:48 Ken is okay

RIP Bobby Allison

20:57 BAD ASS sight right there. Nothing like the Texaco Havoline Ford. One sharp car! Rest Easy, Davey and Robert.

I hear Dale Earnhardt planned to retire after 2001, no matter if he won the 8th championship or not. So sad and ironic. He was ready to move on and concentrate on DEI, spend more time with Teresa, and farm. And there was serious thought he would retire after 2000. If only. I miss Dale Earnhardt very much.

Kenny handled the entire situation as best as he could knowing what he already knew but his heart ❤️ was broken.

When DW says “OMG Mikey you got it” you could see a brotherly love ❤️ but at the same time knowing his BF was in trouble.

Rip Dale sr. A legend gone too soon

That's The First Time I've Ever Heard Letarte's Voice Over Earnhardt's Radio

One of my favorite Back in the Day👍

Earnhardt died so that loser could win

Earnhardt died doing what he loved. Most are not so fortunate. RIP champ!

28:30 "Ken we just got word they had trouble reviving Dale" Would be interested to know what he said to that. Probably just "I'm not a doctor"

Happy and Sad that day. Mr. Ken Schrader, I'm sorry

34:05 it’s amazing that crash didn’t kill Davey

Comments NEVER disappoint. You guys are awesome…!

23:31 little inchident

I watched the race and then I cried for hours.

He wanted to know who won the race Sadly he wanted to know about every 30 seconds

Can I say that Cale Yarborough one tough sob??? If I was alive in the 70s and 80s he easily would of been top 3 favorite drivers

I remember watching this race and it honestly was great overall. And kenseth went from overheating on pit road to winning

Davey will always be my favorite, he was so positive and always found that silver lining. My childhood hero left me at 9 years of age but at least I had a few years of Davey Allison to cheer for on the radio then the TV. Years later i find the silver lining. What a humble man, we are lucky to have that man in our world in our lifetime.

Danica Patrick go to the bathroom

And today the all star race is a joke

What is the song at the end

Wow now I know how the All Star race all started now

I come back to this from time to time and I’ll be damned I still cry. Raise Hell Praise Dale

Just a bad accident. I feel sorry for his family and friends. RIP.

It hits home everytime I take my Daytona Jacket out from that day To see that accident live and in person is something you can never forget

I remember getting disappointed that the Daytona 500 got postponed from Sunday to Monday because I knew I was gonna be forced to go to school. But I got lucky because I got sick on Monday with a fever, cold, and sore throat. But then I got annoyed when the rains came back and wondered if they were gonna postpone it again to the next day. Until they made the announcement on the news that they were gonna run the race at night instead. I was so excited and thrilled about it, and enjoyed the race all the way up to the Juan Pablo Montoya incident. I remember my mom calling me up from her place asking me what happened, I said I didn't know from looking at the replay, and when the replay stopped, I saw the huge fire coming from the jet dryer, and even the track got lit on fire. It was incredibly weird. I remember staying up to watch the remainder of the race, and going to bed at around a quarter to 1 AM. It was crazy, but it was worth it.

I don't think there is a movie or rock star that shocked the people more than the loss of Davy and Alan in 1993. WOW, what a devestating year for NASCAR and all the fans. There was a time my sons and I knew all the drivers and their sponsors, but today I don't know anyone who would waste their time watching a NASCAR race. All the greats have passed on or retired. There will never be drivers like Davey, Alan, Dale, Dale Jr. Rusty. Bill, Mark, Richard, Kyle, and all the others who carried us through the 80s and 90s with such excitement and thrills. These guys were racing for the love of it. Not like these cry baby jokers who drive fast and turn left of today.

If he wore a proper helmet he'd prolly be alive.

Petty cheated here, engine was too big

this was richard petty's last ever top 10 in a non points paying race

My first NASCAR race seen live was the Pocono 500 in 2003. Never forget the huge memorial to Dale outside the front entrance of Pocono two years after the accident, flowers pictures, written letters, etc. And like most of us thought that day...meh just hit the wall, he'll be OK....only to find out the impact almost took his head off....thanks to Dale, many lives may have been saved afterwards. RIP

Mike Joy is the definition of professionalism. One of the greatest to ever do it.

Alan kulwicki 1986 rookie of the year,1992 Winston cup champion and 2019 NASCAR Hall of Fame and Davey Allison 1987 rookie of the year,1992 Daytona 500 champion and 2019 NASCAR Hall of Fame. Both brightest stars gone to soon rest in peace Alan and Davey.

A Very Expensive Race for Race Teams and Car Owners. Along with Talladega.

True legends never die 🫡 rip dale sr and davey Allison

No one will Every Replace Davey and wish we could see MORE instead of Bumper car Earnhart that the Track people would just turn there heads Davey was the King number 28

I would give anything to have been alive and witness this along with the 92 Hooters 500. Amazing races, drivers, times, and memories.

23 years later, rest in peace to the best to ever do it. NASCAR has yet to recover!

What were they going up against in the sunday night timeslot?

Should have done this, this year

Footage of Montoya hitting the jet dryer is more valuable than Bigfoot footage

2012 is one of the greatest years of my entire life! Tomorrow is potentially the 12 year anniversary I found my beloved BFDI object shows!!! AND TOMORROW, as much evidence has already proven my 12 year zodiac theory, the 2024 Daytona 500 will turn out EXACTLY like the 2012 Daytona 500. But instead of Kenseth winning, I got Chase Elliott or especially hail melon himself ROSS CHASTAIN! Keep in mind though, Bell is in the 20 and won the duel. when Kenseth retired, he drove the 20 and also keep in mind that Kenseth won a Daytona duel in 2012 before the 2012 Daytona 500, just like Bell won the 2nd daytona duel in 2024. when jet dryer MONTOYAAAAA destroyed the jet dryer in 2012, Dave Blaney was the leader. Today, his son Ryan Blaney is the defending champion of the NASCAR Sprint Cup looking to win the 2024 Daytona 500. fyi Carl Edwards finished 2nd in the 2011 Daytona 500, then won the 2012 Daytona 500 pole. Joey Logano finished 2nd in the 2023 Daytona 500, then won the 2024 Daytona 500 pole. Edwards finished 8th in this race. Is Logano finishing 8th in the 2024 Daytona 500? Perhaps we live in god’s simulation? 🤔 - Cole Coibi Coleyball

The fact that Ryan Blaney can take the same type of crash and impact at Daytona in the Summer 23 race and not only walk away but not have a major/significant concussion is incredible. It’s horrible that it took the loss of a/THE legend to have these changes made but the lives that have been saved are probably numerous!

2024 repeat
