I was at this race. As I watched Ernie pass by after he took the checkered flag, I started hearing the strangest noise getting louder every millisecond. As I turned my head I see Rusty's car airborne right in front of me, with it kicking up dirt and slinging parts, sheet metal and tires flying off the car. Definitely one of the top 5 best races I ever saw in person.

Makes me tear up listening to Dale talk about Rusty, you can see that he's visibly shaken (something that almost never happened). Dale. I sure do miss you. I wish that you and Rusty could've both raced well into the early-2000s. Dale was a great man, and the best NASCAR racer I've ever seen. - Sincerely, a Rusty Wallace Fan *I remember the day that this crash happened..it was the worst one I ever saw RW get into.

Bob Jenkins, Benny Parsons, Ned Jarrett, Jerry Punch, Jack Arute and John Kernan are broadcast royalty/hall of fame for sure. Additionally, guys in the TV truck like Mike Wells, Gary Clem, Neil Goldberg, Terry Lingner et AL are all hall of fame in their own right. Their work complemented the on air talent and enabled the excellent commentary through their work behind the scenes. Many of these folks had a reunion of sorts on the Versus/NBC sports Indy Car broadcasts (Clem, Lingner, Wells, Arute)and it was amazing to see the chemistry and talent they all still possessed. Very few likely saw their excellent work but they made Indy Car in the late 2000's watchable and even interesting on occasion.

The 1993 Winston 500 was held on May 2, 1993, at Talladega Superspeedway and was the 10th race of the 1993 NASCAR Winston Cup Series. Davey Allison, (Number 28), Was Up Front Racing... Sadly, He Would Only Live 73 days and Die At An Early Age of 32 Years, 4 Months, 18 Days From A Head Injury From A Helicopter Accident Sustained at Talladega. This Was The 2nd NASCAR Driver To Die That Year, As Alan Kulwicki Had Been Killed Just One Month Prior To This Race On April 1, 1993, and He Was 38 Years, 3 Months, 18 Days, and He Had Won The 1992 Winston Cup Title. On the evening of April 1, 1993, NASCAR champion Alan Kulwicki was killed in an aviation accident when the Swearingen Merlin III twin turboprop he was traveling in crashed near Blountville, Tennessee, while on approach to the nearby Tri-Cities Regional Airport. Then Less Than A Year Later On Neil Bonnett, (48 Years, Months, 07 Days), Would Died In His Race Car on February 11, 1994 While Practicing For The Daytona 500. He Wore a Full Face Helmet, Which Dale Earnhardt Suspected Is What Snapped Bonnett's Neck and Why Dale Earnhardt Would Not Wear A Full Face Helmet. Then Just A Short Time Later, Ernie Irvan, (also in Car #28 as Irvan joined Robert Yates Racing as the replacement for popular Davey Allison), Wrecked and Had a a Basilar Skull Fracture and lung injuries and given only a 10% chance of surviving the night. He Survived, But It Was a Basilar Skull Fracture That Killed Both Neil Bonnett and Dale Earnhardt. An instantaneous basilar skull fracture causes the driver to suffer sudden death when the brainstem snaps loose from the spine. It Wasn't Until The Death Of Dale Earnhardt that the Hans Device Was Mandated. The HANS device is to keep the head from whipping in a crash, preventing excessive rotational movement as a secondary protection, without otherwise restricting movement of the neck. Davey Allison, Died on July 13, 1993, and His Younger Brother Clifford Allison, (27 Years, 9 Months, 24 Days), Both Sons Of Bobby Allison, Died During practice for the Detroit Gasket 200, a Busch Series race at Michigan International Speedway on August 13, 1992, Allison spun in turn four, hitting the concrete wall with the driver's side; he died shortly thereafter while in transit to hospital.

This may sound a bit weird, but hear me out. You could make an argument that Mark Martin's pre-race electrical problem led to Rusty's crash at the end of the race. How? In the time it took them to go 1 more pace lap they could have gone 3-4 laps at full speed which, assuming the race had played out the same way, means the caution for rain would have come out on lap 183 or 184 and NASCAR never would have considered throwing the red flag at that point and let the race finish under caution thus avoiding Rusty's crash.

It's a shame what happened at Michigan in 1994. The tire wars costed a lot of people in the late 80's and early 90's. Irvan, Allison and Kulwicki were 3 huge figures in this sport that we lost, obviously Irvan is still alive, far too early.
