5:00 I never realized Mike Joy's voice audibly broke when he acknowledged Gordon's class act of backing off to leave the pole position open.

This is the first race without the great Dale Earnhardt. The world of racing changed this week.

You can hear the sorrow in all of their voices. Larry McReynolds. Mike Joy. And Darrel Waltrip.

I miss Steve Park. His yellow Pennzoil will always be iconic imo. That one crash really changed him for the worse....

I miss when there was a starting lineup worth caring about

3:12:55 "Brought tears to my eyes" 😥 I feelya Steve!

Dale Sr:"Shame that I wasn't around when my boys win"

I forgot how much Ward Burton sounds like Boomhauer. Not that that's a bad thing mind you.

I love them Burton boys. And the Earnhardts too of course

I highly recommend watching the pre race activity that is featured on other uploads of this race on here before watching this version of the race. You’ll learn a lot and get an idea of how things were feeling prior to this race starting. FOX did an an excellent job with their pre race coverage.

I feel so bad for Dale Junior on that one he hit the wall the exact same angle as his father did the week before that race

Jr said he was embarrassed because it looked so similar to Dales wreck.

Reading the description of the video is hilarious

"We at NASCAR no longer support freedom of speech"

Eerily reminiscent of how his dad hit the wall in Daytona

15:42 i was ready to packup and go home .

I often wonder where Rick mast and dave Marcus would finish today. I understand theres immesne talent involved to this day, but we all know book learning only takes you so far. Using a stimulator has to feel the same. Part of the game used to be simply having the ability to persevere. Cool suits, digital gauges, rearview cameras? How many more wins or championships does mark win? Rusty, terry, bobby, mike skinner, any of these good ol boys? Nascar is in my blood and always will be. Im very appreciative for the brass continuing to innovate, but what we see today isnt stock car racing. Its the rich richer for the most part and thats why we love seeing an underdog story like chastain last year, mcdowell at Indy and Josh Berry going from sweeping floors between dirt races to a big time ride next year.

I’d love to know where the old guys would compare in their prime. Put them in the car now and they’ll be like Derrick Cope was in his last Daytona 500 start. In the way.

They seem to cut out certain audio, they take out DW's "I don't think it was meant for Dale Jr. to run this race today" comment after he crashed in the opening laps. I'd rather watch other uploads of this.

He didn’t the next day!

being tight at rockingham must be HELL

2:12:47-2:13:07 I do not know why, but these 2 Dodge cars were always my favorites. Just seeing them side by side gives me an aesthetically pleasing sight.

This race couldn't have ended much better.

Algorithm sent me this because of my recent views of DJD and I swear I can’t even begin to fathom what he was feeling. Had to be tough first race back after Sr died. NASCAR ain’t the same and Dale would FLIP TF OUT if he was to see what’s come of DEI

0:21 That’s MRN Radio

Dale Jr's car hit the wall the same way his dad's did when he got killed. Crazy!

1st race without #3........... Things would change from here.

2:58 Jeanie Zelasko’s odd orgasmic sound…🤔

Was such a somber year.

Poor Dale Jr. He was me mentally checked out from the get go; I would've been too😔

Look at he grand stand rain, now look at the grandstand at .....what ever race track.

3:49 "and the Winston Cup debut of Kevin Harvick" Wonder how his career went after this race.

It was like nobody wanted to be there that week

The 1st race without Dale Earnhardt

I really feel for Jerry nadeau he had a lot of winning to do before he got hurt

I miss dale

Best era of Cup.

I forgot jr crashed on the first lap, thought it was farther into the race!

Ward got it from David and Dick had his cigarette lighter

Shit, this is creepy. Wrecked on lap 3.. crashed and stopped in the same area but different track, that his dad did the week before. The show the cam and it looks just like SR sitting there.

Rockingham, 190 MPH,.MRN.

I flat miss the the Rock 🪨 / bring back Nascar/ I know u beauty tracks/ u take those beauty tracks !@#%^&*👎

Dale Earnhardt Sr., we hardly new ye.

I HAVE THE SAME FRIGGIN HAT THAT LARRY MAC HAS
