Earnhardt "intimidates" Hamilton out of the lead

[SSkinner901]

Karma is a bitch. Live by the bumper, die by the bumper, literally.

[STREETRACERONFUEL]

Don't Block That Groove ..Earnhardt snow plowed him out the way ..Both of them died horrible deaths rest in peace

[KC8YOQ]

Dale SR = dirty driver! Can't pass them wreck them!

[Hightech90]

Yea this is what Sr did all the time. Bobby Hamilton isn't a guy that wins a lot and Sr comes by and wrecks him.

[twinksanator]

@Hightech90 sr didnt wreck him he just got him loose and that was it

[PennyWisee14]

This is why i was never and i mean NEVER a fan of Dale Sr. He always pulled shit like this.. Bill Elliot was always my guy. Fuck Dale Sr. Yes i said it.

[daleearnhardt1fan]

@WCfreebyrd shut the fuck up hater. Nobody wants to hear you peddle on about you didn't like him or he cheated he was the man nobody compares. NOBODY so go like die ok?

[KellarJ]

Don't block, or you'll get dumped. Deal with it.

[nascarrulz1000]

classic dale sr

[WVFreebyrd]

Earnhardt Sr. was a dirty racer. Forget all this "intimidation" stuff, old school racing style, etc. He was spoiled by having great crew chiefs, great equipment and a great organization behind him...then on those occassions when things weren't going his way, instead of racing clean and with class he'd just pull a trick like you see here. I'll say this, the win totals will never be the same but as far as being a true sportsman and a true RACER (vs wrecker) Dale Jr. is twice the man Sr. was.

[saintsrulz]

@WVFreebyrd Spoiled? How do you think a driver gets the great equipment? By being good. Stop your whining because you cant handle someone stepping on your toes. Rubbin is racin.

[FANJG24]

@WVFreebyrd You are EXACTLY right. Earnhardt was a very dirty racer...

[4everafanDaleSr]

@WVFreebyrd Dont Sr.'s 7 championships show he's better than jr also Dale Sr. only went 1 season without a win jr hasnt won a race in over 3 years. and jr does hhave great crew chiefs and great equipment and great orgizations behind him and he still cant do a damn thing

[Imaspeedfreak187]

@WVFreebyrd There's one thing SR had that JR has NEVER had. TALENT

[mrgribble]

Dale was a dirty racer. If you get in his way he'll move you. That's not what racing is about. I'm glad Jr. doesn't race like that.

[jsloan0423]

@ bagruen ......ur a mother fuckin basturd. FUCK YOU! if u wanna talk shit about Dale Sr. thn why did u watch the video? and to say the sport is better off without him.....GO TO A RACE AND SAY THAT....GUARANTEED YOU WILL NOT WALK OUT ALIVE. and once again, have nice life u fuckin prick bastard!

[bagruen]

Intimidate??? He was just plain a dirty driver. He developed a herd of red neck sheep who gave that name to him. If those followers owned the cars he put in the wall so many times and had to pay for the repairs out of THEIR wallet, they would be singing a different tune. The sport is better off without him.

[saintsrulz]

@bagruen If it wasnt for Sr NASCAR wouldnt be big. He did stuff others couldnt. It takes skill to bump people. I race and it is actully pretty hard. You really have to hit them right to where it just slows them down. Sr is 100% better than most drivers today. The only driver close is Kryle busch.

[mywotzone]

@saintsrulz LOL Kyle Busch the guy who is the drizzling shits who will never win a championship meanwhile ole 5 time in a row is about to become 6 time ? :D

[saintsrulz]

@mywotzone Kyle sucks. He only wins a ton in the beginning of the year because drivers are going for steady finishes. Than they go for wins every week in the chase and he cant handle it. Jimmie has a HUGE chance of winning it again.

[mssunshine66]

10 years ago today you left us..i miss my hero...RIP

[99boyz]

another car the #3 wrecked

[NCSportsMan70]

he just took the air out from the back

[C0LL1N]

GOOD NEWS SPORTS FANS! Earnhardt and Hamilton are both dead, so you don't have to worry about it anymore, you can all stop arguing and go back to your modern day, no touching, no bumping, slow the cars down racing that you seem to enjoy today.

[Crossingman18]

@C0LL1N I dunno. I bet ya anything they are still playing this game up in the sky. May they rest in piece for eternity.

[C0LL1N]

@Crossingman18 That is a race that I'd like to watch!

[talladegajunkie1439]

He didnt intimidate him. He plain wrecked him. Enough said

[TonyPizzaro]

we have to remember some of us werent earhnardt fans when he was alive, but hes the reason some of us watched the races

[NascarMicci]

If Kyle Busch did this, everybody would be all mad saying how Busch is a dirty driver and how he should be penalized. What is different from what Earnhardt did here and the other times than from what Kyle Busch does now?

[4Tracer]

@NascarMicci The fact that Earnhardt would bump you 2 or 3 times before he ever shoved you out of the way is the difference. He gave them a warning that if they didn't move he would make them move.

[NascarMicci]

@4Tracer Oh, okay.

[WMRRFAN6573]

I bet Hamilton wanted to rattle Earnhardts jaw for this. What a cheap chicken shit way to win a race. Bobby Hamilton was a class act.

[HomeDepot20TS]

And another thing. Nobody ever intimidated Bobby Hamilton. Nobody intimidated him when he was a short track driver, nobody intimidated him when he was a Winston Cup driver, and that goddamn cancer SURE never intimidated him right to the end. He was one of the toughest son of a guns who ever lived.

[angelgirl7473]

@HomeDepot20TS LMAO~!!

[eddiewlynch]

@HomeDepot20TS Earnhardt intimidated him. 3 for Dale!

[HomeDepot20TS]

@eddiewlynch No he didn't. Learn a bit more about who Bobby Hamilton was. Nothing and nobody got to that guy.

[4everafanDaleSr]

@HomeDepot20TS Dale Sr. intimidated everybody cuz he would back it up. if intimidation didnt work he'd knonk em into the wall so the other drivers were scared of him. and Dale Earnhard was and is alot tougher than Hamilton

[HomeDepot20TS]

@4everafanDaleSr That whole comment is one line of crap right after the other, but the last line is the biggest.

[4everafanDaleSr]

@HomeDepot20TS theres also the 7 chamionships Dale won in '80 '86 '87 '90 '91 '93 '94. when did hamilton win his last championsh....o sorry he never won a championship.

[HomeDepot20TS]

@4everafanDaleSr Who's car did Earnhardt drive for six of those titles? Richard Childress. Who did Bobby Hamilton drive for? Tri-Star Motorsports, Team Sabco (past its prime pre-Ganassi), Petty Enterprises (well past its prime), Morgan-McLure Motorsports (again, past its prime) and Andy Petree Racing (never had a prime).

[4everafanDaleSr]

@HomeDepot20TS how bout 1980 Dale's second year in NASCAR Winston cup and his first championship with an inexpierenced 2 year old team. plus Earnhardt and Childress started RCR together so they staarted with nothin but dale put them on the map. so the team doesnt matter its the driver.

[HomeDepot20TS]

@4everafanDaleSr Triva question for you: Who got Richard his first win? It wasn't God's gift to, well, according to the Earnhardt fans, God himself.

I'll admit as soon as anyone he was a great driver but his fans make me want to vomit. He really is overrated because, as good as he was, everyone wants to act like he was Jesus Christ on wheels and could do no wrong and was incapable of error.

[4everafanDaleSr]

@HomeDepot20TS Answer to your trivia question it was Ricky Rudd in '83 I know Earnhardt wasnt RCR's first driver what i meant was when Dale joined in '84 (he was also Richards driver for part of the '81 season) the team really took off thats what i meant when i said they started it, and ill admit Earnhardt did make errors in his career but who hasnt and i havent ever heard anybody say he was Jesus on wheels its against my religion to say anything like that. Merry Christmas

[HomeDepot20TS]

That was a horseshit move. I was a big Hamilton fan, never liked Earnhardt and this didn't make me want to soften my stance any.

Wonder if once Bobby got up to the garage in the sky if they finally had it out over this? Hmm...

[angelgirl7473]

@HomeDepot20TS LOL...

[EarnhardtJrFan4Life]

"Get out my way bitch or im movin ya'! "

[RichieWilliams97]

So, by "intimidates" you mean takes his ass out? Great driving by Bobby Hamilton.

[florida5fan]

What a save!

[99boyz]

Dirty ass racer

[Maelstrom787]

Stop your arguing and show both these guys some respect. Who'd have though they'd both be gone by now?

Rest in peace Bobby and Dale.

[SCRTpilot]

And this is why I hated him. Just like Schumacher can do whatever he wants. Mansell was always black flagged for, well for everything.

I don't understand that.

[jwdogfst]

This is why I had no respect for Earnhardt. Hamilton passed him and was about to sail off into the sunset. So Earnhardt did what he did best and wrecked him. Unlike other drivers, he had full Nascar protection to do whatever he wanted.

[TyVulpine]

@jwdogfst He didn't wreck him, Hamilton was able to continue. Nothing illegal about what E did.

[jwdogfst]

@TyVulpine, Hamilton hit the wall and damaged the toe of the car, putting him out of contention. That's wrecking him.

Of course, if you're an E fan, nothing he does is illegal so it's a mute point.

[TyVulpine]

@jwdogfst ROFL "mute" point? It's "moot". And if you're not an E fan, everything he does WAS illegal, amirite?

[jwdogfst]

@TyVulpine, it's "am I right" since you want to hold a spelling and grammar contest. Nice deflection from the topic since you have no argument for Earnhardt putting Hamilton in the wall and ruining his race. It only reinforces my point about E fans always looking the other way when Earnhardt does something bush league on the track.

[TyVulpine]

@jwdogfst As I thought, it's "I'm right and anyone that disagrees is automatically wrong!".. How many other drivers do that shit and nobody bats an eye. More often that not, E raced cleanly. Everyone flips the moment he makes a mistake and acts like he "always" does it.

[mzxrules]

Damn, I'm surprised Bobby held on to that.

R.I.P Bobby

[quadnut20]

I remember this race and Hamilton had the car to beat that day and Dale couldn't stand it. Just plane dumped him.

[pettymike45]

Swapping paint, rubbin fenders is racing.....hitting someone from behind and almost, if not wrecking them completely isn't.....nor does it take talent. Dale was a very talented guy, and didn't need to race people like what he did in the video.....why not just wait till the end of the straightaway and drive under Bobby? I honestly think Dale got a kick out of wrecking people, and racing them clean bored him.

[starclassics]

@pettymike45 ....that has to be the most ridiculous thing I've read on youtube. Carl Edwards WRECKED someone today. Nudging someone, which is what happened here, IS racing. I can't help you if you can't understand what it means to win.

[nortonclarkson]

It was just racing, Could have hit him harder if he meant to wreck him.

[Chevypower265]

I've always said, rubbin' is racin'! They ain't nothing wrong with swapping paint and stuff, thats what racing is about and Dale took that to the max! R.I.P. Dale.

[andrewlovesvictoria1]

well you kno what its called racing shits gonna happen

[cfisher113078]

that racing. I agree with you Johnny5liter, there are a bunch of sissy crybabies racing today. They like to talk tough in front of a camera, but that's about it. I miss the OLD Nascar

[kasey9fan]

Kyle Busch does that today and he's ridiculed to hell.

Earnhardt does it and he is a "god"/ "Mr Intimidator" etc.

[EarnhardtsYear08]

I bash Kyle because if he doesn't get his way he crys. Dale shrugged his shoulders and went on. Watch the 1990 Daytona 500 interview

[kasey9fan]

Meh, that is true. Gotta give that one to ya

[blitz811]

maybe you oughta watch the 2000 daytona 500 post-race interview w/ earnhardt crying after Fords ate his lunch. or what about when Mayfield schooled him at pocono ... gee, guess earnhardt didnt whine then either, huh?

[highway955]

stop bitching you fucking dweebs. i can name 43 drivers that do the same shit. stop crying already. you muxt be a a jeff gordon cupcake fan

[RaisedOnRadio92]

Jeff Gordon 82 wins

Dale Earnhardt 76 wins

Game over, cupcake.

[EarnhardtsYear08]

Gordon 4 time champ, Dale 7 time champ. Gordon had money to start with, Dale had to make his own money. Whos the better man. I like Jeff dont get me wrong but Dale was and will forever be, The Man In Black

[highway955]

jeff gordon= 1 win in 2 seasons

jeff gordon= can't wint shit without everham

jeff gorodn= waaa my back

[DFDSFUEIFH]

HE won the championship in 2001 WITHOUT EVERNHAM! OH YEAH! pwned!

[amburnett2448]

The funny thing is, neither of you seem to understand racing and how it has become more competitive throughout the years, thus making more and more difficult to win a championship in NASCAR's modern era...

[TheZeus022]

no, it is more difficult because of the chase, which in my opinion shouldn't have been done because all it is is a publicity thing.

[SlayerPayback]

@DFDSFUEIFH congrats on still having 3 less ... and taking in account that earnhardt took 15 seasons to win 7 and gordon is in his 18th season ... well yeah i'm pretty sure even you can see who's better and dont give me that is the chase didnt exist " BS it does exist and gordon still has 4 if anything its easier for him to win with the chase all he has to do is be good for 10 races lol

[ACDCFan38]

Dale Earnhardt 7 Championships

Jeff Gordon 4 Championships

I just ate your cupcake.

[vettedude418]

jeff gordon in old points system..6 championships..dale earnhardt...dead...that cake was delicious

[BrickGrease]

@vettedude418 your full of shit

[MegaNascar24]

he didn't intimate him. hamilton knew he was gonna wreck him . cuz earnhardt wrecks ppl to win. hes to stupid to figure out how to pass em

[indigoblue555]

to MegaNascar24 - HI! being totally unaware of the rules,may I ask you if

nudging (or bumping ) is allowed or not

if done purposely of course...

I see it's a common behaviour in Nascar

racing and it seems to me quite unfair as a sportman:I'd like to see the best driver as a winner and not cheaters knocking out their opponents.

Thx !

[EarnhardtsYear08]

well he was running Dales line and Dale was faster.

[bobdolecult]

that was bullshit. that was hamiltons race, and wouldve been his first win. like him or not earnardt raced like a dick right there.

[Longlakedreaming]

Earnhardt did the same thing to Sterling Marlin at Bristol and Alan Kulwicki at Pocono in the same year! They both deserved to get their first wins in 1987, but Earnhardt got away with so much dirty driving that year it turned my stomach. Any wonder why when he crashed that half the crowd would erupt in cheers?

[Hlover01]

...he was a master at intimidating he didn't do anything wrong they all just got intimidated and slowed down

[Longlakedreaming]

Tell that to Kenny Schrader, Bill Elliott, Terry Labonte, etc. They didn't think very highly of Earnhardt's tactics at all.

[goleafbudsgo]

How do you know when Dale Earnhardt was in your backyard?

The garbage is gone and the dog is pregnant!

lol

[kasey9fan]

Your an idiot, that is a Mexican joke you tried turning over and failed horribly.

Now go make yourself useful and kill yourself.

[me6179799]

He didn't intimidate him, he bumped him. There is a big difference there

[amerikanerMarinen]

That wasn't a bump..it wasn't a nudge..it wasn't a tap..it was a rub.

Rubbin is racing

[me6179799]

While I agree, it still is not intimidating. Intimidating is making the person nervous enough to mess up. Hamilton never got loose, Dale just bumped him.

[GooseMobius118]

@me6179799 I think that's why intimidates was in quotes

[BetrayerOfDeath]

PFFT he wasnt intimidating him he nudged him and got him loose dale sr sucked lol couldnt drive worth shit and cheated a lot

[Johnny5liter]

Miss no. 3

nothing but a bunch of PC wimps driving today.

they only talk tough!

[dmay525]

what dale earnfart and pink floyd have in common??? there last greatest hit was the wall

[Johnny5liter]

Funny, but thats cold!!!

[wawwwaaa]

why the fuck is there 7 thumbs up for that. thats an awful comment...show some repsect moron!

[Cloudstrrifeee]

nah, youre confused with the sound me wetting on your mom

[dal3fan88]

lol

[oldskoolchevelle]

ha........R kelly

[goleafbudsgo]

She must be ugly to fuck you. Instead of Cloudstrrifeee it should be Pussystrrifeee. lol

[Cloudstrrifeee]

how does that even make sense? Dumbass.

[goleafbudsgo]

Read it slower than!

[ffg2454]

I miss Rockingham.

[crbassassin]

Dale Earnhardt, the most overrated driver ever

[kidd1023]

yup 7 championships is no reason to be called great right

[crbassassin]

7 hollow championships*

[kidd1023]

the point is he has 7 championships. he's tied for first on the all time list for titles. he's not over rated he was just that damn good

[nascar3003]

@crbassassin what do you mean 7 "Hollow" Championships?

[crbassassin]

@nascar3003 he couldnt win races without wrecking a competitor, and nascar always made calls that are favorable to him

[racefan32]

@crbassassin Just like they do for Felon Motor Sports?

[gatoralley01]

@crbassassin get out of here you dont know real racing if youre saying that. Let me guess youre a jimmie johnson fan, probably in your lower 20's or younger, and have never raced in your life.

[Banger82]

lol, has to be the dumbest comment of all time...

[cmwel2000]

and who is better, dumbass? you ppl that became fans this decade amaze me.

[McCall72]

Well for being the best car, that number 3 car sure did run him down in the corner. Caught, tapped and passed. Happened all the time in NASCAR back in the old days and not just by the guy driving the 3 car either. Anyone who isn't a NOOB to the sport would know this.

[beerfunk]

Sorry. That all sounded very intelligent, but this isn't really a sport.

[DFDSFUEIFH]

Anyone who IS A NOOB Would think that NASCAR IS NOT A SPORT! LOL.

[benpetty4345]

I remember this race very well, because being a 43 fan it looked like the 43 might finaly win a race after many years. The 3 knew that the 43 had the best car and just flat took him out. Of course DE said it was an accident, yeah right.

[PYLrulz1984]

They all say that, be it Earnhardt, or anyone else.

[4Tracer]

Who wants to bet that most of the people that are dogging Earnhardt actually like the racing of today? Lmao, Earnhardt was racing at it's best. Wether you hate him or love him you still need to respect him because he respected everyone, and nobody reply saying "If he respected people then why did he spin them out?" Well here is one answer.... He spun his own son one time and he respected him alot for a kid.

[racerboy1245]

Respect? Earnhardt had the biggest ego in the world, and is the most overrated driver ever. If I ever give Earnhardt credit for something, it will be for being the best at being an asshole. No class whatsoever, and showed no respect to anyone on the track, because he was Dale Earnhardt.

[4Tracer]

Dale Earnhardt had respect for every single driver at the track. But you had to earn that respect, no class whatsoever? My ass he had no class he did many many things off camera that were very classy. He helped Kyle Petty found the victory junction gang and btw racing isn't a popularity contest, and Dale was far from an ass hole he would stop and talk to you at the track even when he wasin the middle of doing something.

But you wouldn't know that your probably just an ignorant little puke.

[racerboy1245]

Heh, shows how brainwashed you are by all these Dale Earnhardt ass kiss shows. He is SUCH a great guy, but if you read between the lines he isn't what he really is made out to be. My parents told me a story about how Dale Earnhardt fans were calling him over to give them autographs, and he scowled at them and walked off. With that being said, I am nearly an adult, so in your eyes I may be a puke, but I clearly am a better judge of character than you. Thank you for your time :)

[PYLrulz1984]

Overrated?!?

76 Wins, 7 titles, and he is overrated?!?

Yeah, ok.

STFU Fucktard

[racerboy1245]

Didn't say he was a horrible driver, just saying he is overrated. People call Earnhardt a god, when in fact he was just an aggressive race car driver who wrecked to win.

[Banger82]

I want you to go down the line and name me every race he won. Guarantee you in 5-10 percent of them he didn't wreck someone to win. He was just awesome. He had to be running good to tap for the win anyway... lol

[331sbf]

Earnhardt's = OVERRATTED

wreck them to win yeah that's talent.

David Pearson was far better

110 wins and won 3 titles in the only 3 full time schedule's he ran!.

[4Tracer]

Wrecked to win my ass, he didn't wreck them he tapped them. He barely had to even touch most of them to move them out of the way.

If he is such a bad drive then why do all of the Nascar legends like Petty, the Allison's, Ottinger, the late Benny Parsons etc. talk about him being so talented? He won those races because he was talented not because he wrecked people, "David Pearson was far better" He raced in a completely different time retard. Back then only 4 or 5 people were competitive.

[Banger82]

great points by 4Tracer. Out of his 76 wins he may have tapped someone out of the way five times. So that is definitely not most. Another thing, he had to be running pretty good to even tap someone out of the way for the win... ever think of that?

[SlayerPayback]

@Banger82 BEST COMMENT!!!! i wish people would be more intelligent and not just media based biased idiots..

[Banger82]

David also ran a lot more races during his prime too. They used to race 50 times a year.

[derick4767]

@331sbf every one has their way to race.

[BSNFabricating]

I wasn't gonna post a reply on this video, since most of the comments aren't worth reading, never mind a response... But about Earnhardt knocking others out of the way... I respected him a lot, but at times (like this race at Rockingham and Bristol in '99) I would hate his guts. That said, he was far from the only one to do this. It was just the old-time short track style he grew up with...and it got him in trouble a few times (See: Richmond, 1986)

[Longlakedreaming]

For Earnhardt at his worst, check out the 1987 season. A cheap win at Pocono, Charlotte and Bristol. There might have been another that I've forgotten, but I don't have them all on tape. He really started to get a "rep" as a dirty driver in 1987.

[extremeicon3]
