From the 2001 New England 300 TNT Prerace show

I normally don't watch prerace shows, much less convert and upload them, but I knew this segment was in this particular prerace show and thought it should be shared. A quick piece about Kyle Petty's first visit to New Hampshire Speedway since Adam's accident, followed by an interview with Kenny Irwin, Sr about his son.

  • Adam was my favorite but I really liked Kenny a lot too. Had Kenny lived, he would've been driving for Chip Ganassi and there is no doubt in my mind that he would've won races. And don't worry Mr. Irwin, we haven't forgotten how special your son was. Kenny's legacy was more than just a talented racer, but a great, wonderful man too. His charity work (which he kept secret) and his helping others will be his legacy. Thank you Adam and Kenny for who you were. We love you and miss you!

  • Kenny Sr. need not worry, because I will never forget Kenny. I followed him from when I was young and he was just ready to make his move up from USAC. He was my favorite USAC driver; I followed him to trucks where he became a winner. Then into Cup where he became the teammate of my favorite Cup driver. I hate that he didn't have more success at Yates. I still think about Kenny, and wish he could have matured into the racer at that level must of us knew he could be. Kenny will not be forgotten.

  • Poor Kyle:(((

  • @wwefanhbk12: Later in 2001, Blaise Alexander lost his life in Charlotte. Same reason, basal scull fracture. That's when the HANS device was enforced in NASCAR.

  • its kinda sad it took dale sr to die before anyone looked at safety. but what about adam petty,kenny irwin jr,tony roper im sure im forgeting someone but it just makes you think
