  • Why is it called "the pass in the grass?" He got clipped while in the lead and saved it to keep the lead....no offense because it was cool

  • @acenace24 idk someone started calling it the pass in the grass and it just caught on.

  • If u cut thru the grass and dont improve position, then there was no pass. I cant believe this bullshit ever caught on. He didnt pass anyone. wtf?

  • @DigitalAlpine U mad?

  • @ampenergy327 Nope. I'm a fan of the 48 who just happened to win the 1 race I wanted him to win most - the Talladega race, partner'd up with Dale Jr. Got no reason to be mad, but swearing isn't always suggestive of a person's emotional state anyway.

  • @DigitalAlpine I don't believe your telling the truth....

  • @fordman2141 LUCK? Thats skill. Talk to any professional driver and they'll tell you 99% of drivers would of lost it there. Just one of the events that prove what a legend and pure driver Dale Sr. was. PS- Fords are for losers

  • @fordman2141 Another ford fan boy still trying to figure out how #9 got beat by #3 or rationalize it, anyone who knows any thing knows #9 had tried to shrink the field by wreckin #5 hoping to get his competition caught up in it. Oh by the way # 9 finished 14th that day & of all losers, Kyle petty carried your flag as the only ford in the top ten.

  • R.I.P. Dale Earnhardt aka The Intimidator

  • That is how you drive a fucking car!

  • @rmusgjerd  Correct. No.

  • @DigitalAlpine LOL uptight? It was a great bit of driving...no?

  • I never have understood or never will, why this is called the pass in the grass, no one was passed. Whoever gave it that name was a real dingus.

  • @DigitalAlpine No i understand.. I like a lot of drivers too 

  • @PennyWisee14 I'm a fan of a lot of drivers but I dont expect you to have enough self respect to understand that.

  • @DigitalAlpine Lost all respect for you when i read "fan of the 48"

  • @bigtallguyzack

    that's indeed a very good possible interpretation and it makes more sense than saying he made a pass for position :)
