In Memory of Dale Earnhardt

This web page is created in memory of the late Dale Earnhardt. He was by far the greatest NASCAR driver ever. He also posed as a role model to many. He lived his life on the edge each and every Sunday. I have watched NASCAR for about six years now and he was my favorite driver and will always be my favorite driver. Even though he is gone, his presence is felt each Sunday when the green flag is dropped. I was watching the race that day (Febuary 18, 2001) when I saw that last lap crash. I knew something was strange. The window net did not come down, there was no sight of movement. It was a very scary feeling. I saw the tears in ole' DW's eyes. Those weren't tears of joy because Michael had won the race. Darrell Waltrip had lost a great friend and he knew it. I knew I had just lost my favorite driver too. But I promise to carry on the Earnhardt tradition by rooting for Earnhardt Jr., Michael Waltrip, Steve Park, and Kevin Harvick. I believe RCR made a great choice by choosing Harvick as Earnhardt's replacement. He would have been satisfied by the choice. I end this with condolences to the Earnhardt family, his fans, and his friends. As a Earnhardt fan myself I believe we should not stop watching races every Sunday because we have lost one great person. Dale would want us to be there for his team not holding back emotions and trying to avoid the pain. Lets go out there and root for the 29, 1, 15, and 8.
