- See Kevin Harvick's interview in victory lane, but not before a receiving line reminiscent of Earnhardt's '98 Daytona 500 win greets him as he makes his way down pit road. Also features an interview with Jeff Gordon and the final results and standings.
I was there in Daytona when we lost Dale. I was in Atlanta for the win. I became a Harvick fan that day and I have been ever since.
I was a Harvick fan until he left RCR.
That win really proved that Harvick had a great career ahead of him and he's done just that winning all the crown jewel races plus a Cup championship.
Ya 2007 Daytona 500 he won a brickyard 500 and cup championship
+54 more wins lol
One of the greatest and most important races of all time, no question.
WHY CANT RACING BE LIKE THIS AGAIN
Best dam race ever!! So emotional. I couldn't stop crying. Way to go Harvick!! 3
Well it better be a good one. Nascar scripted a few races this year. Steve parks win at Rockingham the week after Dale's death, Park never did well at any race rest of year let alone have a chance to win and yet magically, he pulls off a win well after death of teammate where the whole work force for RCR would have been no wear near top of their game, they somehow pull a win off on a track that team rarely had success at doesn't make sense.
Harvicks first win that was made to look like Dale's win last year, they even picked their golden boy Gordon to make sure the job got done right and play up the story of Dale's rival Gordon got beat by the new kid driving Dale's car, so Dale must have been in heaven and made Gordon's car get loose off of 4 ,to setup a photo finish and one of the greatest and closest finishes in history.
And if course the biggest staged moment in sports. Juniors win at Daytona in July. Gotta give it to Nascar back then. They knew how to put on a show and knew what make headlines.
@@thomasc.5219 A scripted race? Bowyer purposely spun in 2013 Richmond race got penalized, why would NASCAR penalized Bowyer if he can make an interesting playoff season? Harvick is great driving in Atlanta. You think 2014 Phoenix race was scripted? And Dale jr "scripted" Daytona win in July? You're not seeing how much wins does Dale jr has in a superspeedway? Nascar is not rigged. Bruv
@@thomasc.5219 Stewart was the only driver trying to pass Jr in July 2001 and NASCAR black flagged him.
@@thomasc.5219 It was no secret how jacked up Richard Petty's car was for his 200th victory July 1984. President Reagan did not fly to Daytona to watch him lose.
@@kartomadenegara5202 I don't like saying "rigged" but when races have historical significance I think NASCAR wants them to go with what's popular with the majority fan base. Johnson's last race at Phoenix this year was the passing of the torch to NASCAR's most popular driver Chase Elliott. No wonder he went from last to 1st place in the first 40 laps. Its easy to do in a sport that's so mechanically dependent.
I was only 9 when this all hall happened, I was a diehard dale fan (still am) and I was very sad when dale died. Moments like these were special, they were reassuring that we could go on
not really a fan of Austin Dillon but what a great moment on sunday to remember dale by
yeah i was glad to see the 3 back in victory lane
This was the beginning of Kevin Harvick's carrer with this win, then he won the 2007 Daytona 500, seven years later he won the NASCAR Cup Series Championship in 2014.
One of the greatest ever.
2001. What an emotional year.
It sure was Dale Earnhardt's tragic crash. September 11th attacks 2001 changed the world forever 😢
Was a Earnhardt fan from watching my first race.when he died and harvick took over,I followed the car,so I was a instant harvick fan.he was being groomed to take over when dale retired,but unfortunately it happened the way it did.this race reminded me of the year prior race with bobby and dale.
Amen to that. I'm a lifelong Gordon fan. This is the only time I've ever been happy to see him be in contention for the win and end up second.
Thank you Jeff Gordon for showing Good Sportsmenship at the end
He and Dale had a fun bust each others balls relationship in the garage. When you’re that close with a competitor you’re even closer with the team around him.
This was the first NASCAR race I had attended or even watched. I was told to pick a driver so I chose Gordan. What a race it turned out to be! Needless to say, I was hooked at this point and became a NASCAR fan. One thing to note is that there were people crying in the stands at the end of the race. As I was new to NASCAR and did not understand the impact of Harvick's win, all I knew was my guy finished second. Looking back it is cool to know I witnessed a part of NASCAR history.
Even thought my husband and I had watched every televised Cup race since the early 80's, I didn't want to after Dale died. But the rest of 2001 racing season almost felt like it had Dale's hand guiding the drivers sometimes. Steve Park's win, Dale Jr's win, Harvick's win, almost seemed like reassurance that racing goes on.
Other teams showing respect to the winning team that’s sportsmanship at its best
i was 8. my whole family loved sr. i was really sad when he died, i thought he was the coolest guy. after Harvick won this race, that salute to sr made me a fan of his for life. go get them tomorrow at the Glenn #4
Amazing win. Shocking how many people were in the stands back then.
my favorite race ever. I'll never forget what I was doing, where I was yelling screaming jumping around hugging my buddy, his first ever nascar race. he's still a harvick fan to this day! and I'm a Gordon fan!
First it went Mikey winning the 500, then Steve Park winning at Rockingham, Then HArvick at Atlanta, and i think that was a sign telling Jr. that it was his turn to win and finally get that closure at Daytona.
Oh, okay. Yeah, Jeff's always been my favorite, but I've got a hell of a lot of respect for Harvick.
@gbpckr34 I was disappointed Jeff lost, but I was happier for Kevin than I was disappointed for Jeff. Such an unbelievable finish.
@Orangetree547 And I shed a tear every time I see these races again.
@gbpckr34 I was disappointed that Jeff lost, but I was happy for Kevin Harvick and the #29 team.
The coincidence of both the losing drivers in 2000 and 2001 photo finishes go on to win the championships.
I hate Harvick, but I was happy for him when he won.
who the fuck would dislike this???
kevin harvick i think will always stay #29 well if kevin harvick inc comes to sprint cup he will probaly have khi numbers like 4 or 33
This was a great call lol
Team Goodwrench 2 for 2, 2000 and 2001
Harvick doesn't know how lucky he was to win that race
@tylersmmith07 Chocolate also oversees the RCR museum,BTW!!!!
GREAT
I honestly think they should’ve kept the 3 going and put harvick in it
@theyoozernaim
Unless your a Gordon fan, it was a great year but a bad year at the same time, especially if you had enough brains to know Dale was the best.
The first time I posted the original comment, my computer said it wouldn't post, so I posted it over again.
Get rid of the chase, get the stock cars back and maybe just maybe we'll have as good racing today as we did back then.
me too
im a huge gordon fan. but i must say i was kinda glad he lost that day.
@chargeme123 In a way. It was that year that really showed t he world what a unique awesome sport it is, but losing Dale alone makes it the worst year ever.
Will,, nothing,,stay,, change,,4get,,a,,win,just,,like,, you,,did,,for,,Dale,,29,cars
Whoa ur high
it's cool.
- my computer do's same
Class act by Jeff Gordon. Never a sore loser
Jeff Gordon has such an amazing heart. God bless him. I never understood why people booed, Jeff. He was not a sore loser ever but he would express ways that he was not happy with somebody, but Jeff is probably one of the most humble drivers I’ve ever known. Even though Jeff can be a hothead. Sometimes, he’s one of the rarest people to piss off, and Jeff is such a humble individual and usually when he’s pissed with somebody he usually makes it up to them later. I love Jeff, he’s awesome. Jeff Gordon is also known as one of the biggest inspirations in NASCAR history. He’s the one that really helps get the Renaissance going for the young guns in NASCAR. Just look at Jimmie Johnson. Jeff Gordon is definitely directly responsible for the success of Matt Kenseth, Jimmie, Johnson, Tony Stewart, and more. God bless his soul. I want to see Gordon race in SRX in the future. There is a reason why Jeff is one of the most loved individuals in Motorsports.
I will never forget this day. I cry every time. I Love you and I miss you Dale.
I was screaming my Ass off for Harvick to win. AWESOME. Racecar, forward or backwards. :D
that was a good moment healed all the pain
Gordon is a class act
I've got this race on dvd. But seriously we need those 850hp gen4 cars back. These 670hp gen7 cars suck ass 💩
I watched this in a airport man asked why I was crying I need booze brother
their was no way anyone could script park's, harvick's, and jr's win
He still has his moments, but yes, he's tamed down some.
@PepsiLovinRacer24 very doubtful. A majority of those guys have retired or moved onto other positions, including Chocolate Myers who has his own radio show.
i was there infield turn 4 top of a bus.I never heard that place louder than that day it was crazy that day.rip 3bud.
that car Harvick won with is in the RCR museum and its painted black with 3 decals.
This is an apt comment that speak's to the unique&open mind (that is) that of the fan of Nascar.
BTW, good job at replying to my 2 year old comment.
he's not as bad as he used to be tho
@spinnernetfan1 Stay classy.
me too.
The amazing thing is... Dale Sr. won this race the year prior.
Neil, Artie, Mike, Larry, and Darrell found the camera pointing at the #29 crew knowing the history. They knew the story of the team like a team that lost a key player coming back.
Neil? Artie?
This was a feel good moment. I wish Harvick didn't turn into such a jerk after this; I would probably like him.
i know that i'm late and i didn't mean ti critique but agree.
- i find it hard to pick one driver above the other.
the29&the24 are both good (odd as my logic is) but Nascar is different&open for this fan.
Only 11 drivers in this field are still racing in 2012 but only 10 are full time
i liked kevin until delana came i wish edwards car wud of hit the 29 pitbox
I come to watch these videos because NASCAR is such shit these days.
Still shit
