1991 Hanes 500

1991 Hanes 500 (ESPN Classic Version)
Martinsville Speedway
April 28, 1991
I've had to dig real deep in my collection to find this one. This ESPN Classic version of the 1991 Hanes 500 played during their 'Dale Earnhardt marathon,' celebrating ESPN's release of the movie '3.' Anyone is welcome of posting the full version if they have it.
It was a typical Martinsville race in the '90s - some spins, pit stops, long green flag runs, a multitude of relief drivers, great short track racing, and typical awesome ESPN short track shots and commentary from Bob, BP, and Ned. Steve Largent, former NFL star and representing Hanes in this race, joins the booth and learns what NASCAR is all about.

I miss ESPN doing NASCAR. They did a great job.

I was there. Earnhardt was driving with one hand on the wheel the other was resting on the roll cage. Looked like he was driving on the Interstate.

I have the tail end of this race, they aired it on Thanksgiving 2002 along with several Classic races from the 90's and 2000's, the reason why has something to do with the winner of this race and I won't say that. Also ESPN aired Thrills and Spills in 2002 as well from 1999-2000 over the holiday.

I wonder if anyone has the original with when Benny interviews DW and DW "puts on the owner's cap"

[@evanwilliams6406]

I wonder if that is Austin Dillon that Richard Childress holding in that post-race interview shot at 1:24:14? If so, Austin would be about a year old then.

7:18 so that's what a differential gear looks like

[@howardrader3416]
