Still seems like yesterday to me. You're still sorely missed by this long time fan. The sports not been the same without you. RIP
 
R.I.P Dale

Still missed by this fan until this day. That's a race that I never got to see and never want to see :(
 
You know how you get to meet people at the races who have parked next to you while tailgating at a Cup race?
Well, I met some dude during the November race here in Phx last year who insisted that Dale Sr. had a heart attack just seconds before he hit the wall in his his fatal crash. I didn't argue with him, even though I knew all evidence suggested otherwise. He said he could see it from Dale's eyes from his pre-race interview that this day would prove to be unlike any other. I would have taken this "news" with a grain of salt had it not been for this guy's knowledge of Dale or the fact he was sportin' his #3 leather jacket.
I thought he was nuts - but for that belief only.

On a side note, congrats to his daughter, Kelley, on the birth of her son yesterday. (I think).
