Earnhardt "intimidates" Hamilton out of the lead

With still-winless Bobby Hamilton leading the 1996 Goodwrench Service 400 at Rockingham and Earnhardt in second, Dale gives the 43 a little nudge that sends him up the racetrack and into the wall.

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.

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.

@4everafanDaleSr Tougher than Hamilton? Fuck you. Hamilton fought CANCER. Earnhardt never had cancer, and I'm pretty sure that if he were still alive, would admonish you for saying that he's tougher than a man who battled cancer, even if it did kill him.

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

@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

@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.

@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 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).
