    Dale Jr is the best interviewer in all of sport. Ask the right question and sit back and let the guest go. All the so-called late show idiots could learn a lot from watching this

    I spent some time with Donnie at Charlotte in the early 80s . I didn’t have credentials or a pit pass on a Saturday before the Bush race . I was there with some friends that used to handle Toro mowing equipment and they were meeting wit Humpy and Bruton about giving the pole winner a mower so they handed me off to Donnie . He said come on big boy your my body guard and like magic he walked right into garage where he stopped and talked to all the drivers in there . Even Dale sr. I left there that day and felt like one of the family and that was exactly what the garage was a family. Ordinary guys with extraordinary talent. I love them all !

    Dale these stories are PRICELESS TREASURED BLESSINGS AND TRULY IRREPLACEABLE. THANK YOU FOR GETTING THESE ORIGINAL DRIVER'S IN NASCAR TO COME IN AND TELL THESE STORIES OF WHAT HAPPENED WAY BACK 🏁🏆🏁💞🤗💞🙏 THERE'S NO WAY TO PRESERVE THE HISTORY OF NASCAR EXCEPT THROUGH THE STORIES COMING FROM THE PEOPLE WHO RACED AND MADE HISTORY. THESE YOUNG KIDS DRIVING NOW COULDN'T DRIVE A RACE LIKE THESE PRECIOUS GUYS DID,400-600 MILES OR LAPS WITH ILL HANDLING CARS AND BURNING HOT BECAUSE THEY DIDN'T HAVE ANY WAY TO COOL THEMSELVES BACK THEN. PLEASE KEEP THESE AMAZING TREASURED BLESSINGS COMING BECAUSE THEY ARE HISTORICAL AND MEMORIES FOR FOREVER 🏁🏆🏁💞🤗💞🙏🙏 MANY DRIVER'S RACED HURT AND THEY DIDN'T WHINE OR CRY BECAUSE THEY ARE REAL MEN JUST LIKE YOUR PRECIOUS GRANDDADDY RALPH AND YOUR PRECIOUS DAD THE ONE AND ONLY THE INTIMIDATOR THE BEST PERSON TO EVER DRIVE A RACE CAR 🏁🏆🏁 NOBODY CAN EVER TOP YOUR PRECIOUS DAD'S ABILITY TO RACE WHATEVER CAR BE WAS IN AND WHETHER HE WAS HURT,HE STILL STRAPPED IN TO RACE¡! THE BEST DRIVER EVER "THE INTIMIDATOR" . 💞🤗💞🏁🏆🏁🙏🙏🙏

    • @teresagoodwin7458
      @teresagoodwin7458 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @craigparrish3582 I loved watching your Uncle Sam Sommers race every Thursday night at The Old Columbia Speedway in Cayce South Carolina. He was a great race car driver and he was spirited when someone raced him a bit too hard because he would rub them or bump them right back. One night, I wish I could remember who made him really mad and he stopped in turn 3 at an angel where no one could go right in front of the driver he was upset at and he went to the driver's side and got in a few good licks and we in the pits/ infield area and in the stands got our money's worth that night. There wasn't a person young or old that wasn't cheering at the top of their lungs 😂😂PRICELESS TREASURED MEMORIES 🏁🏆🏁 BEST CHILDHOOD EVER AND BACK THEN YOU COULD MIX AND MINGLE WITH EVERY RACE CAR DRIVER THERE AS LONG AS THEY WEREN'T WORKING ON THEIR CAR. SAM SOMMERS, RALPH EARNHARDT, TINY LUND, NED JARRETT, BUCK BAKER, LEE PETTY AND SO MANY MORE. THAT WAS REAL RACING AND THE BEST DIRT TRACK RACING ANYWHERE 🏁 🏆🏁 THE RACE DRIVER'S THEN COULD RACE AN ILL HANDLING CAR WITHOUT POWER STEERING AND HOT AS HADES AND GO FULL THROTTLE FOR A WHOLE RACE NO MATTER HOW MANY LAPS OR MILES THEY WERE RACING. NEVER ONCE DID I EVER HEAR A DRIVER COMPLAIN ABOUT IT WAS TOO HOT, MY CAR JUST WASN'T HANDLING ( THE CAR MAY HAVE BEEN A HANDFUL BUT THEY ALL HAD A NEVER QUIT ATTITUDE. IF IT WAS WRECKED THEY WOULD THROW EVERYTHING AT IT TO KEEP IT GOING AND GET BACK ON THE TRACK. BOY I MISS THOSE DAYS WHEN MEN WERE MEN AND WOMEN WERE WOMEN 🏁🏆🏁🫡🇺🇸🫡🇺🇸🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻💞🤗💞

  • @Wklambert
    @Wklambert 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +6

    One of my favorite things about "Becoming Earnhardt" is that Dale not only has emphasis on his father, but not just that, it's an inside story of the sport back then. As crazy as it is today, it was incredibly spirited and nuanced back then. The people in the sport were characters of an almost forgotten time. It's important we remember where we came from. We learn from our past. The story being told is an incredible one, and I can't wait for ep. 4!

    Hey love all the drivers and your DAD I have been watching racing for years and I have been to a couple in North Carolina. Dale the 79 rebel race showed how many GODS of the sport were putting there lives on the line. Hey I loved SENNA F1 driver and I still cry today looking at some stuff on UTUBE but I appreciate you trying to keep the sport alive. Hey no disrespect I don’t have much time for it now because to me being born in 1966 this was the days that we as human beings were going through the best times in my mind. I know we had wars but I think racing helped me get through the troubled times that we were going through. Dale I appreciate your support and hope your pod cast last as long as possible . Greenville North Carolina Bess you and your family be safe and stay strong and enjoy your family. Hey I have always tried to be myself and honest about life . That’s how I was raised in life and I’m trying to get through this day and age????

    Donnie skipped ahead several years telling of driving son Kenny's Busch series car. BEFORE that, like about 1982 Donnie was running a plain #1 All Pro car at BIR (Birmingham). He was sponsered by a chiropractor. He was GREAT in that car & one night there at BIR he finished a very close, hard fought 2nd place to Rusty Wallace i think.

I’m 57 and I’m retired from Gregory Poole and I’m trying to look at what Dale is doing and I don’t care about who’s fault it is. I loved Cale and talked to him and Donnie .
