What's good wendi

I love your videos

Yew shewd dew a videa about Dael Sr Wendi!!! DEW IT FUR DAEL!!!

Goat recognizes goat. Love you Wendi :)

Same here, this is just amazing.

same, i'm european so i have never seen a nascar race in my life. i knew the name dale earnhardt and that he died, but oh boy this may be the most amazing story in all of sports. kudos @EmpLemon for this amazing video.

Honestly, I'm so happy EmpLemon went from making UKposts Poops to quality content like this. I was thoroughly entertained for the entirety of the video.

You knew nothing about him and it still effected you. Think how heart wrenching it was for the millions who loved him and there sundays revolved around getting to watch him race. Quick story.... the day he died I had on a Earnhardt black button up racing shirt on. I was a 30 year old grown man watching that race when he died. I cried like a baby wiping away the tears and my nose with the sleeves and bottom of that shirt. Afterwards I took the shirt off and told my wife never to wash that shirt...never. I wore that short only one time after that. Later that year they raced at Daytona again so I pulled it out of the closet and wore it one more time in Hope's it would bring his son some kind of luck and sure as anything Dale Jr won that race. So again I took it off put it plastic and hung it back up. I'm now 51 years old and it still hangs in my closet the same. First thing hanging all the way to the left so I see it every time I walk in to my closet. I think people loved him cause he was one of us. He never did anything to embarrass his fans or nascar. As fans you just felt like you could call him up and say.. hey Dale wanna go grab a beer or go fishing? And would say sure is this Saturday good? I know that's not reality but it's just how you felt as a fan. Anyhow your comment got my attention and has endeared you to millions of Earnhardt fans across the country. Welcome to Earnhardt Nation.. Now you gotta get tickets to a nascar race and see it in person atleast once. Even though it's not what it use to be it's still wild and fun to see live for the first time. Get there early cause there plenty of stuff to do and see at the track before the race. Also now that your part of Earnhardt Nation every time driver Jimmy Johnson does somthing or his name is announced you must booo!! loudly it's the proper thing to do...

Been a fan of NASCAR for my whole life, and never had a favorite driver, but know I do!

That quote genuinely made me cry, the first time I’ve ever done so just by listening to a video.

It make me tear up man :')

Legit started to read this just as this quote came up in video. Damn, some great words.

"But NASCAR had no other option, but to push forward" > the most heartwarming sequence I've ever seen follows

That quote actually made me feel better about it even after all these years.

I agree despite how upset I get at death in general. I know it’s a part of the human experience, that it’s unavoidable. If you ask anyone, they usually say they want to go in their sleep. But like you said, going in your sleep usually means months if not years of wasting away in a bed, unable to do anything for yourself as your body literally crumbles. But the opposite, of dying in your prime, and especially quick and (hopefully) painless like Dale did is preferable. Die happy rather than decrepit. The one thing that happens no matter how you go, though, is the pain it will leave behind. The pain your family and loved ones will feel because you’re no longer there. A LOT of people felt that pain, some still do. I can relate with Jr. Because I lost my father while he was doing what he loved (my dad was a pilot who passed away in a plane crash back in 2018). All we can do is do like Dale: pick yourself up and keep moving forward. But one last thing: that pain of loss isn’t like the pain of breaking a bone or the toxic heartache of being cheated on. The pain of losing someone that you genuinely love is the pain of all that love you have for them no longer being able to go home. And as crappy as it feels…it feels a little nice to know that your love meant something.

​@jomahawk7488 genuinely one of the best comments I've ever read.

I grew up in racing as the grandson of Bobby Allisons crew chief for 13 years, born , raised and still a resident of Hueytown, Alabama, home of Bobby, Donnie, Davey, and Clifford Allison, Neil Bonnett and Red Farmer. I also raced for 12 years. I have watched so many of my heros, and friends climb into a racecar to never climb out. My grandfather use to tell me , son, there is no such thing as a safe race. . Racing is dangerous. . Earnhardts death which brought the mandate of numerous safety systems is without a doubt saved countless drivers from dying the same way as I have had the misfortune of personally witnessing so many times. But this is a different world than the one Earnhardt lived and raced in. I do not watch NASCAR very often tho I do watch the highlights and results each week because that's all I've known for 48 years. NASCAR has gone to hell the same as our government, our country, and the world. I pray no driver will ever loose the race of life behind the wheel but if they keep having races it is only a matter of time before it happens again. Appreciate your video. I will close with the racers prayer that no many folks probably know. . .LORD I PRAY AS I RACE TODAY, YOU WILL KEEP ME SAFE ALONG THE WAY, NOT ONLY ME BUT OTHERS TOO, AS WE PERFORM THE JOBS WE DO, LORD I KNOW THAT IN A RACE, I THE DRIVER MUST SET THE PACE, BUT IN THIS RACE OF LIFE I PRAY, YOU WILL HELP ME ALONG THE WAY, ALTHOUGH I KNOW I AM A SINNER, HELP ME REMEMBER WITH GOD YOUR ALWAYS A WINNER

Well said, seriously. A legend Dale is for sure.

Fr.

Watch “the day Dale Earnhardt”

Same

I actually live in the city he was born in

I was a kid during the zenith of NASCAR, and I was 10 when he died. My family were huge fans, we had a cookout with what felt like 100 people over. When this happened, the devastation was unreal. First time I saw my dad cry.

@@graysonrachels5832 Kannapolis now compared to how he knew it feels like a metaphor for NASCAR now compared to when Dale knew it.

i remember when i first watched stis video i teared up too.

I know that hit me

The man sacrificed himself so his people could have the win. Holding back all those other cars on his shoulders like an olympic god

Watch the podcast with Micheal Waltrip and Dale Jr, Jr explains that day in great detail and with Dale SR. Holding the entire pack off of his boys just So they could get the win....thats an emotional podcast. Michael knew when he was in victory lane something wasn't right and rushed out of there to check on SR. Oh I almost forgot, Any racing game I ever play where it gives me a # or Decal I always use #3 in memory of the Intimidator. R.I.P #3 ❤🤘

My heart broke 💔

I love Dale! He didn't miss the final barricade!

Okay?

Dale died in 2001

My dad also quit watching nascar when he died. He was the same way.

@@delaneyadams4006 Why did he quit watching? Many people die in racing.

The atmosphere of 80s and 90s nascar is mint

Watch the Australian V8 Supercars

As an American, I think the best way to describe its appeal is like old Roman chariot racing, but mechanized and way, way faster (and USUALLY less fatal). Yes, in theory, the main goal is to cross the finish line first, but the real appeal is the aggression, chaos, and death-defying daring-do you see before that - which is fitting, given its Prohibition-era origins.

thank you for understanding i see people from Europe or different countries that see nascar vids on instagram or twitter and they shit on it and i always try to point them to this video so they can understand more thank you and f1 i recently got into that more in the past year or 2 the history of it is so cool and interesting and just how amazing the tech is too in those cars

F1 terrifies me. I saw Ayrton Senna’s death and never recovered. Im always scared for the drivers’ lives. I know it’s an incredible sport and I do watch the highlights but I can’t watch the crashes. I just want to say that I can’t understand why they make the cars that fragile.

Today I went down to the Quaker State 400 Kentucky Speedway to watch the "Buckle Up In Your Truck" race. Who won was the #17 truck with a young 18yr old inside, is first race, his first win. I came back to this video because of Dale Earnhardt's final race, where he carried his team to victory with the cost of his life. He and his son, his team, won. Sad, but beautiful ending.

I got hit hard in my feelings

It’s enough to make a grown man cry

@@davidoke3909 right? Teared me up.

And thats ok

Yep, that reminds me of the video of Earnhardt paying his respects to senna after his win at Talladega that fateful day. Rip to both

Oh

May Ayrton rest in peace and may God bless him. 🙏

To be fair, the big one wiped out so many cars that there was less than a dozen cars that completed all 200 laps.

Even in death, he still beat a lot (if not most) of the other racers

Glad somebody already said it. I had to check and see when this video was made when he talked about how unpopular it is and 4 years ago checks out. I'd say the average popularity and respect for the sport has approximately doubled in that time, and I hope it continues upwards. As i write this, one of the best finishes ever at Atlanta happened and the entire race was fantastic. Lots of new fans just from that race, from what ive seen on socials.

With my dad being a huge Dale Earnhardt and Earnhardt Jr. fan (I'm a Tony Stewart fan.), I was holding back tears for most of this. That line opened the waterworks.

When he said that it sent so many chills through my body

“Daytona International Speeway”

I was so happy when i see this documental the first time. Everything was interesting... until, at 40:09 he said those words... the smile that i had on my face just fade out, and i realized that, the hard part, was about to come. And, the song... dude... it's just perfect for this... This song means something for me. This is the kind of music you would play right before the final battle. That definitive battle, of which: Or you come out victorious and alive, making the future bright for you and everyone, and leaving you a story of triumph and glory that you can tell forever ... OR... The end of a martyr story. The sad end of a person who faced the ultimate enemy in a final battle, managing to destroy him and ensure that he never managed to threaten his own again ... but paying the ultimate price ... causing a legend to be remembered for eternity, but leaving insurmountable suffering to his own. Sadly, in Dale's case... *it was the second story.*

I’ve watched this video 3 times through just for that one line with the music

I remember me and my family watched every nascar race and we all rooted for dale and i remember like it was yesterday the race in which he died. They didnt tell the audience until after, but that was the last race me and my family ever watched. A lot of viewers here probably arent old enough to remember watching dale live. That dude was like a hero to me.

Maxbotnick It’s not how they died, it’s their legacy they left behind.

@@Nickbotmax The other chief difference being I gave a shit when Dale died

💀💀💀 man

That his last words to his team owner but his official last words were to a driver named Andy Pilgrim who competed with Dale Sr. and Dale Jr. in the Rolex 24 Hour Race at Daytona just a few weeks short before the Daytona 500 that February just moments after the Big One accident on the backstretch when Dale Earnhardt talked to Richard Childress unexpectedly during the red flag at the 2001 Daytona 500 was waived and during the ensuing caution after the clean up on the backstretch.. Earnhardt: So, you got any advice for me here coming up? Pilgrim: No, man, I haven't got any advice for you. Just keep doing what you're doing. Earnhardt: Okay, just wondering. Pilgrim: Cheers; talk to you later. Pilgrim had no communication with Dale after that and instead he heard that Dale cheer Michael Waltrip and Dale Jr. to finish... we don’t know how much Dale cheer on the radio for sure only Andy Pilgrim and Dales crew knows and the questions we want to know will remain forever silent. Even more silent is when Dale Jr. witnessed his father’s accident in his rear view mirror... and he still doesn’t want to talk about it after all these years and many years to come... The guy who wrecked with Dale was Ken Schrader a driver who won a couple races as a journeyman driver and he still remains silent on what he saw after Dales accident to this day but things will remain forever unanswered...

@@Mister_Matt_X Ken Schrader has said sometimes he wishes it was him.

@@shiningamaterasu2579 that's gotta be so rough

And he did die in his last words

What’s even more worse is that the driver who fans claims that he made Earnhardt die his name is Sterling Marlin... now Sterling is another journeyman driver who won the Daytona 500 for his first career win in 1994 and won again in 1995... after Dales passing before the next week race at Rockingham Sterling received a lot of hate mail and death threats mail from fans and blamed Sterling for the accident... it turns out that the next week at Rockingham Dale Jr. made a bold statement to fans and the media that any behavior of hatred will not be tolerated against his father... and it’s true that Dale died doing what he loved... Sterling said in an interview that he raced hard as he could to secure third place but Rusty Wallace finished third speaking of Rusty Wallace he managed to win on the day which would’ve been Dales 50th birthday at Fontana during the race on lap 3 the race like most of them before fell silent but the camera found a car like piñata with balloons I wondered if everyone had balloons that day that would’ve been amazing... Darrell Waltrip said it wasn’t Sterling’s fault in fact it’s no one’s fault... It’s hard to imagine before the Daytona 500 began in 2001 Dale Jarrett the 1993 Daytona 500 winner and the 1999 NASCAR Cup Champion was asked by Dale Earnhardt about the HANS device he asked Jarrett “Are you wearing because you’re afraid of dying?” and Jarrett looked back and told Dale Earnhardt that he has a better chance of living and survive a wreck and see this as a new device as an opportunity as drivers to be safe... the question was brought back to Dale Sr. about his open face helmet and the equipment he used... The Day: Remembering Dale Earnhardt shows that Dale Sr. had raced with a broken neck during the 1999 NASCAR season and cracked a vertebrae and didn’t get the surgery done until the ‘99 season was over and in 2000 he lost the title to win his eighth cup championship to Bobby Labonte... many thought ‘01 was going to be Dale Sr.s year for an eighth cup title but it never came... if he was here things would be very different... there’s a lot of “what if?” scenarios but we may never know for sure...

Noh Buddy I was in tears when emp said “and his last memory was of his team with nothing but open road ahead of them”

Music got me there

That's just really haunting in the end

I wish NASCAR wouldn't die. Jeff gordon leaving was the final straw that sent nascar into a steep spiral. There are no drivers we can be fans of, no one has been dominating for multiple seasons. Not only that the car packages have ruined this sport. The trucks are the only interesting races to watch, as the cars are difficult to drive and make for good racing. Nascar needs a change, and a big one if stock car racing is going to stay alive in the US

Agreed 100%, Brock. 100%. Well said. Note about Brock: A lot of people that watch this video may not know the impact Brock has had on the entire racing community on UKposts. He's one of the most well-known people in this community and while he has stepped away from making videos for the most part, he's still arguably one of the best at what he did. A compliment of this caliber from someone like Brock is almost like someone like Peyton Manning telling you that you did a great job in a football game.

It didn’t used to be boring it was the most popular sport in America cause how good it was and thanks to Brian France he tried to make nascar like every other sport and he killed it. Added too many rules, added a gimmick playoff format just for entertainment not fairness, made the cars easier to drive and made the racing suck so much ass now it’s unimaginable. I remember standing on my feet cheering and clapping cause how good this sport was and now I barely watch cause how much a shit show it is now cause of it practically being pay to win now cause skill doesn’t matter like the 80s and 90s.

Used to watch in the early 2000s with my father. After Earnhardt died, we rooted for jr. Interest kinda faded though, and we both stopped watching. A new friend of mine came over once this past summer and we watched the race. It doesn't have the same flair it used to.

When I was a kid I used to watch NASCAR with my late grandfather (he died when he was 103) He never knew what NASCAR was until that first Daytona 500 (the family was snowed in) and after that he became a huge fan. Most Sundays when I was little in the early 2000's we would watch the race. He would have a beer and I would have a soda. It was really the best part of the week. NASCAR has IMO lost what it once had (especially with the introduction of stages which I find really annoying) but I still watch it whenever I get the chance. Honestly whenever I'm stressed out I start to think about when I used to watch NASCAR with him and it puts me in my happy place.

I think your dad would really appreciate the video too.

"But I still was never as good as you." Dale considered Ralph to be the best. He even said it in multiple interviews

All the real angles are hard to find

often in racing the more spectacular a crash looks, the less likely it is to kill the driver; all that flipping and rolling dissipates a lot of the energy from the impact, but with Dale's crash he hit the wall head on and HARD, all the energy of the impact went straight into him. A similar accident happened at Le Mans in 2013 and took the life of Allan Simonsen.
