[@christopherwall2121]

Every time I watch that finish, I can just picture him, standing out of his chair, going absolutely nuts watching Cale and Donnie wipe each other off the map, Petty and Waltrip and Foyt flying past, the camera crew needing Ken's verbal direction...

[@Pensfan5919]

You'll enjoy this and learn a lot through this, more so about the 80s and 90s of NASCAR than any other period. I can't tell you how many times I've watched this video back.

[@GangGang-qk1se]

Emp lemon is very good

[@ryansheehan9462]

10:43 the heart attack happened in his kitchen actually. Some writers have tried to glamourise it by saying it was in the garage working on the car, and only recently Dale Jr set the record straight on that.

[@wetalknascar464]

Ralph Earnhardt had his heart attack actually when he was working on something for his car in his kitchen.

[@masoneveridge4078]

It was the carburetor

[@ethanweeter2732]

I thought he was in the shop like I’m the movie. Dale found him though, I believe that part is true.

[@Aaron-uf2is]

@@ethanweeter2732 a neighbor actually found Ralph. He went in to get something for her, and after he hadn’t come out in awhile, she went inside and found him on the ground. Dale’s sister (Dale Jr’s aunt) talked about it on the download a few months back. Dale wasn’t at the house and the rest of the family was out of town

[@menwithven8114]

NASCAR has bounced back considerably! I went to two sold out races this year. Also went to Daytona and literally watched rain on the track while I was sitting in the sun. The place is absolutely enormous

[@americansmark]

My dad drove in the lower series in the early days of NASCAR. I drove a few races in 2010, but I wasn't great at the stock car style. I can hold my own on road tracks like Mid-Ohio, but oval tracks are a lot tougher than they look. The banking is absolutely insane and eats a ton of power and will suck you up and in.

[@NolmDirtyDan]

YESSS MY MAN!!!! and thanks for the shoutout man lol

[@microfighterz]

I can honestly say Emplemon's video helped me get into Nascar

[@gamemeister27]

I really wanted to see an F-1 fan watch something like this. I've never been much of a racing fan, but this video gives me good old fashioned american pride. We race cause we need booze. We purposefully ram vehicles while racing. We build gigantic concrete arenas so stock cars can drive as fast as open wheel cars while weighing twice as much.

[@LexyThomas134]

Most of us who grew up on F1 all switched to NASCAR the last few years lol NASCAR even mentioned their views sky rocketing because of it haha

[@jeremiahhardel2646]

[@stonewall01]

@@TheBeesleys99 After this you should react to "Dale: The Movie." It is a professional documentary but it goes much more into detail about Dale Earnhardt himself. It is a very good documentary, you will like it I know.

[@leethecomedian]

We respected the Hell out of him,even the ones who didn't like him. His son is pure class when it came talking about. Jr.s got his dads fans and was popular driver really till he tired. Can you imagine being the face of your sport,with Worldwide fame, and not once was he ever disrespectful to the press or fans about it.

[@mongo5888]

Dale Sr. always has and always will be my favorite driver. He is an absolute LEGEND. Great videos, great channel. Keep up the great work man. And don't forget... Raise Hell praise Dale! 🤣🇺🇸🤘

[@downnice95]

Another thing with Dale is that he was a master of learning the race track and taking faster lines and with his car control could drive lines that most of the field simply could not

[@jikelley]

NASCAR still has a great core fan base. Unfortunately the fan base loves to complain or be picky about everything. As far as I know, all sports have been taking hits in viewership, sponsors, etc.

[@Gutslinger]

That's what happens when they all go woke...they go broke.

[@ethanweeter2732]

We have as many fans, but less are attending races.

[@ki11atj49]

Just like Dale Earnhardt being absolutely huge for the sport in terms of advertisements in popularity Jeff Gordon was a very huge in bringing in fans to NASCAR you should react to something on him

[@dannyharris5310]

Good video.. much respect! Hello from North Carolina!

[@enischial965]

This guy is throwing a lot of shade in the beginning. NASCAR has a huge fan base and loads of major sponsors.

Nascar is still VERY popular..I go to Talladega every year n the crowds are massive!

Awesome reaction

[@harolddorsey9179]

A fan my entire life. In my opinion Harry Gant was right there with Dale as a driver. Another legend.

[@willrobinson4976]

I 'm a car enthusiast so I love NASCAR, I personally don't believe it's as bad as this guy say it is. They still get tv coverage so it can't be that bad. No not as popular as it once was, but it's not dead yet.

[@ethanweeter2732]

Dale Jr. is actually Ralph Dale Earnhardt Jr by full name. Ralph, his grandpa, never was a star in the Cup Series like Dale Sr or Dale Jr. The Sportsman Division was the secondary division to what was then the Grand National Division then, I believe.

[@23cuteasabug]

I’m not a fan of NASCAR but I’m from North Carolina where it was really big when I was growing up. My grandfather and some of my cousins were big NASCAR fans and every Sunday at my grandparents house the race would be on TV. I remember when he died a lot of people were sad. My school bus driver was a big Dale Earnhardt fan She actually had pictures of him taped up on the school bus. About 15 minutes from where I live is a road called Dele Earnhardt Boulevard

[@testing056]

dale earndhart can go airborne, flip, land it and repair his car and continue his day

[@tylerbuckley2092]

It is a sport of speed back in the day those cars were 200.mph cars up unlike todays cars on the Nascar circut

[@methom4091]

Dale's son Kerry from his 1st marriage races occasionally as well. Two of his grandsons also race.

[@nickhofmann54]

When Dale died Kevin Harvick took over his ride but it was renumbered to the #29 and won the same year at Atlanta

[@danielramsey5499]

NASCARs problem is the same as American football and basketball. They used to be contact sports, but they keep making them more and more safe.

[@JayStephens8]

There will never be another dale sr

[@ethanweeter2732]

His knee was damaged for a while. How he was able to walk good after that is incredible because I think he never had it surgically repaired.

[@Somewhere_Bagel]

I think the reason people don't like it is the same reason people don't like certain foods. It's an aquired taste. It's not something you try and instantly like. you gotta give it a real chance and really understand it. My dad got me into nascar. It took a bit but I really enjoy it now. Ive been to 2 races (this years and last years All star race). got nothing on my dad though. Hes been to every cup series race at the Texas Motor speedway since the day it opened. He only missed one. and it was the one that occured during covid.

[@thekevindeucey]

This is funny and interesting. Born in the US, grew up in Surrey, moved back to the US. Somewhere along the way I fully understand both NASCAR and F1... but have never been a fan of either. My future brother-in-law took me to my only race (in what I would later learn was a stolen car lol,) but ya, Brands Hatch (is that how you spell it?) It was probably 1984 and I did get to see the iconic black and gold JPS car break the track record. Honestly, I think I enjoyed the Mini races that opened the event more.

[@macklemore131]

my mom was a big nascar fan back when i was young, and i ended up enjoying it by osmosis haha. i've been to a few races because of my mom and it was a lot of fun. earnhardt was my favorite until his death, and then i kind of fell out of it.

[@derekspradling1558]

I'm 41 yrs old and I was a NASCAR fan growing up until i found F1 in my late teens. Since then I've lost interest in it but anyone who says there's no skill in NASCAR has lost their mind. I think the tobacco sponsors leaving did irreparable damage to the sport

[@rubenpreciado7485]

Why did you skip ads? They were part of the video they were old ads. Also not everyone liked Dale Earnhardt because of his aggressive driving style he did become more popular after his death, and he only won most popular award once and it was after his death in 2001.

[@harolddorsey9179]

Like the famous statement in the movie Days of Thunder IF YOU'RE NOT RUBBING ,YOU'RE NOT RACING. 😂 100% true

[@SAVikingSA]

There's a lot of people that are down on NASCAR, but if you put the old 80's grandstands on these tracks they'd all be full. The 90's and 00's saw an expansion that happened too fast, so empty stands now look worse than they actually are.

[@christypriest30]

I love Daytona and I’ve been to dozens of races there but I have to say that Tally (Talladega) is a much better race to watch in person. It’ll always be my favorite. But that might also be because I was at that race when Sr. Won his last race there!

[@leethecomedian]

NASCAR sold its soul around 1996-97 and really tried to hard to get the casual fan. It just forgot about the ones they already had, the ones that filled the seats.

[@leethecomedian]

I wrote my comment before the baseball story lol. Maybe next time I should the video before commenting

[@Cubs-Fan.10]

Nascar will never go anywhere in the US but up, yet will remain a constant

Daniel Riccardo was a huge Dale Earnhardt and is the reason for picking #3 in F1.

Emp has made sure that it gets back into the good light. It's now the most popular it's been in nearly a decade

[@ohmyglob7222]

Been a fan since I was born, I was only 7 when I cried at Dales death, live on tv.

[@ethanweeter2732]

They don’t go as fast as open wheel like Indy Car or F1, but the cars are still fast and hard to drive.

[@lizzaangelis3308]

When nascar went to this championship format and went full on car of tomorrow they essentially nuked the core fan group

[@Gutslinger]

I never liked Nascar, but I loved Dale.. The races just seemed too long and boring for my liking. I prefer the dirt track ones with stock/modded and sprint cars. Can't remember exactly what they call those kinds of cars.. They're more like how Nascar racing used to be in the old days. The races are shorter, and there's more chaos, and usually drifting around the turns. We have a couple of local dirt tracks in my area. My dad's cousin used to race in them, and eventually started running the track. They're fun to watch, and a fun place to hang out. Especially when you're a single teen. 👀 Lol

[@henriquepaladino3779]

I think the late models are the dirt cars you were thinking of. And yes, even as a Nascar fan, I agree that dirt racing can be pretty exiting as well. All types of racing are good on different ways in my opinion

[@stephenjones4182]

Whoever made this video clearly is bias. Nascar has faded but I mean damn. Good reaction tho never disappoints

[@ClankyOtter]

Emplemon seems like he wanted to appeal most to non nascar fans and spoke from a place of humility as a fan. As someone whose only getting into it now, I can see how the 80’s and 90’s days presented a bit more of an exciting spectacle than what’s able to shine through in the current gen6 cars. Still would love to see a resurgence in the sport’s popularity tho

[@kittens-kun7671]

No.

[@Samhain606]

I live near Daytona and you can barely get tickets and it's totally packed.

[@veeker48]

[@joyhoward5325]

Yep 👍, Dale Earnhardt was the BOSS an absolute Legand in Nascar!!! After his death it was really hard to watch NASCAR WITH& certainly less interesting and popular for the majority of Nascar Fans. I was watching Dale in the race when he was killed. Lot of people pretty well knew Dale was dead or at least permanently crippled up the moment we saw him reck. But was still devastating to ALL when it was finally reported to the public🥲. RIP DALE 💜✝️🇺🇸🗽⚖️🦅 AMERICA

He probably didn't know

I was about to say, I need my daily injection of Daytona USA music.

[@brianstacey2679]

This guy is very pessimistic about NASCAR's fandom, While race attendance is down, it still rates very well on TV compared to the other non-football sports. Regular races outrate regular NBA and MLB games, and NASCAR rating have not suffered as much as NBA ratings in the last year. Its not where it was at its height, but it is much healthier than professional basketball, which is hemorrhaging fans at unprecedented rates.

[@NolmDirtyDan]

Im sorry, im a fan of both, and just because NBA is losing fans, doesn't mean there isn't still probably 100x more NBA fans than Nascar fans, and thats nothing against Nascar, its just not as popular. Im 24 and grew up in the suburbs of chicago, and i knew maybe a handful of people my age that actually cared about Nascar

[@Madison.CRUZ.]

I stopped watching NASCAR when Dale died. He was .my guy. #3. I haven't watched a race since.

[@btwgarage5265]

Nascars down fall started with restrictor plates and the final nail in the coffin was the car of tomorrow. Fans want to watch race cars on Sunday that they can buy on Monday the car of tomorrow all look the same just different decals

[@danielmackey7740]

I used to be a big Nascar fan and the reason I'm no longer Nascar fan is it they took away the driver element out of the car that's why they say they'll never be another like Dale Earnhardt and that's so true because after Dale Earnhardt's wreck they took all the fun out of NASCAR NASCAR did but they're all the rules no more bump drafting no more a drafting no more anyting they put a spoiler on the car they make the Cardis stupid and before you could watch the cars try that hard into the corner what's the driver drive it hard into the corner almost the car that's going into the corners and way back was in what people really watch Nascar for what's the Rex I ain't going to lie to you cuz we knew that there was going to be a wreck happen there's hardly ever Rex nowadays NASCAR officials really took the driver out of it a there's no more Rivals like they used to be and I'm sorry that stuff that Americans love

[@rustyreese4006]

Hell go to a local dirt track race. They happen every weekend in the summer and it's not hard to find a track anywhere in the US. It's not very expensive and you'll get to see three to four different classes of cars. It's one of my favorite things to do in the summer, even though nascar has a race in my state. I usually have more fun at the dirt track races.

[@kadens]

hi sorry if ive already posted this, guessing you dont like links but watch historical moments in nascar by mmcs its an awesome watch!

[@jeffburdick869]

Dale Earnhardt was like Man United. Half the people loved him and half the people hated him.

[@jamesb_53]

Great video!! It’s true that NASCAR has lost the majority of it’s fans in the last few years. (Over a 50% drop in viewership between 2015 and 2019 according to Sports Media Watch). Most longtime fans have fallen away because (in their own words) they’ve decided to focus on being in the entertainment business and not the sporting business. This has also caused new fans to not come in because, as we all know, it’s die hard fans that introduce the sports they love new people. So, they’ve sort of shot themselves in the foot. It will never be popular like it once was in it’s current form.

[@ethanweeter2732]

Drivers these days aren’t like guys like Dale Sr. He was sort of an enigma of sorts.

[@DavidMiller-qe5ex]

Actually, at the time a lot of people did not like Dale Earnhardt.

It's the NASCAR Org. itself that's shooting itself in the foot. NASCAR back in the day was fun to watch, but today there's so many Stifling rules and the cars used has no approximation to autos we use, even older ones, it is supposed to be STOCK CAR Racing, there was an old saying, you race on Sunday, sell on Monday. Today it's Race on Sunday, So-What afterward. Lifetime Fan, no longer hardly even know who's winning.

People think nascar is simple and requires no skill but there is nothing simple at 200 mph or 321 kph.

[@Snelson5094]

NASCAR was great to see growing up I remember watching the race that Earnhardt died in. When my favorite driver Jeff Gordon stopped racing and NASCAR had made these new rules with heat races I stopped watching. It is a shell of what it use to be. Nascar has forgotten it’s roots.
