I was at this race. As I watched Ernie pass by after he took the checkered flag, I started hearing the strangest noise getting louder every millisecond. As I turned my head I see Rusty's car airborne right in front of me, with it kicking up dirt and slinging parts, sheet metal and tires flying off the car. Definitely one of the top 5 best races I ever saw in person.
Makes me tear up listening to Dale talk about Rusty, you can see that he's visibly shaken (something that almost never happened). Dale. I sure do miss you. I wish that you and Rusty could've both raced well into the early-2000s. Dale was a great man, and the best NASCAR racer I've ever seen. - Sincerely, a Rusty Wallace Fan *I remember the day that this crash happened..it was the worst one I ever saw RW get into.
Bob Jenkins, Benny Parsons, Ned Jarrett, Jerry Punch, Jack Arute and John Kernan are broadcast royalty/hall of fame for sure. Additionally, guys in the TV truck like Mike Wells, Gary Clem, Neil Goldberg, Terry Lingner et AL are all hall of fame in their own right. Their work complemented the on air talent and enabled the excellent commentary through their work behind the scenes. Many of these folks had a reunion of sorts on the Versus/NBC sports Indy Car broadcasts (Clem, Lingner, Wells, Arute)and it was amazing to see the chemistry and talent they all still possessed. Very few likely saw their excellent work but they made Indy Car in the late 2000's watchable and even interesting on occasion.
These really were the good old days of NASCAR. The injuries/deaths weren’t good but the racing sure was. The cars are so aero sensitive now that usually one car lucks up and hits the setup while the rest suck.
Problem is, you can’t simply unlearn what many of these guys have learned. Plus it’s a lot more than just knowing how to hit a set up. The engineering stuff and what not these guys know far exceeds what they knew then. There’s no way you can replicate the past, because someone will apply something they know
So happy to find all these satelite feed races. They're just old enough that I don't remember any details about the results or interesting happenings so it's like watching a whole new race without having to watch the garbage that is today's nascar.
3:37:30 the only time you ever saw #3 shook up. Wow. The only race my dad took me to, we are from AL and he loved watching nascar every Sunday. We went to this one, I was 13. Had tickets right at s/f line. Worst sinus headache of my life. Absolutely miserable whole race. The rain delay they thought they were gonna call it.. everybody leaves to beat the traffic. Then we hear the end of it on the radio on the way home.😮
The 1993 Winston 500 was held on May 2, 1993, at Talladega Superspeedway and was the 10th race of the 1993 NASCAR Winston Cup Series. Davey Allison, (Number 28), Was Up Front Racing... Sadly, He Would Only Live 73 days and Die At An Early Age of 32 Years, 4 Months, 18 Days From A Head Injury From A Helicopter Accident Sustained at Talladega. This Was The 2nd NASCAR Driver To Die That Year, As Alan Kulwicki Had Been Killed Just One Month Prior To This Race On April 1, 1993, and He Was 38 Years, 3 Months, 18 Days, and He Had Won The 1992 Winston Cup Title. On the evening of April 1, 1993, NASCAR champion Alan Kulwicki was killed in an aviation accident when the Swearingen Merlin III twin turboprop he was traveling in crashed near Blountville, Tennessee, while on approach to the nearby Tri-Cities Regional Airport. Then Less Than A Year Later On Neil Bonnett, (48 Years, Months, 07 Days), Would Died In His Race Car on February 11, 1994 While Practicing For The Daytona 500. He Wore a Full Face Helmet, Which Dale Earnhardt Suspected Is What Snapped Bonnett's Neck and Why Dale Earnhardt Would Not Wear A Full Face Helmet. Then Just A Short Time Later, Ernie Irvan, (also in Car #28 as Irvan joined Robert Yates Racing as the replacement for popular Davey Allison), Wrecked and Had a a Basilar Skull Fracture and lung injuries and given only a 10% chance of surviving the night. He Survived, But It Was a Basilar Skull Fracture That Killed Both Neil Bonnett and Dale Earnhardt. An instantaneous basilar skull fracture causes the driver to suffer sudden death when the brainstem snaps loose from the spine. It Wasn't Until The Death Of Dale Earnhardt that the Hans Device Was Mandated. The HANS device is to keep the head from whipping in a crash, preventing excessive rotational movement as a secondary protection, without otherwise restricting movement of the neck. Davey Allison, Died on July 13, 1993, and His Younger Brother Clifford Allison, (27 Years, 9 Months, 24 Days), Both Sons Of Bobby Allison, Died During practice for the Detroit Gasket 200, a Busch Series race at Michigan International Speedway on August 13, 1992, Allison spun in turn four, hitting the concrete wall with the driver's side; he died shortly thereafter while in transit to hospital.
3:27 - (in qualifying) "the field is seperated by a little less than seven seconds" - i thought I was going crazy but realised he read seconds instead of mph!

It’s fun to hear Ned Jarrett set his stop watches during the breaks. Other things noted during the commercial breaks: - they mess with the thermostat a lot - Benny Parsons has a sore throat - really paid attention to Jimmy Hensley, Joe Ruttman, and Greg Sacks
I was at this race as a 9yo, in the infield. IIRC we were at the end of turn 2? I just remember not being able to see Rusty's crash, but saw the smoke rising afterwards. I went to countless nascar races with my dad when I was a kid, and this one is the one that most stuck with me through my life.
LOL this is not Daytona this is Talledega I mean it is a common mistake because Talladega and Daytona are almost the same size Talladega it’s just a little bit bigger
The 1993 Winston 500 at Talladega Superspeedway was the first ever live telecast of the 2nd leg of the Winston Million. The race was aired live, nationwide, and via-satellite for the first time on the GMA Rainbow Satellite Television Network on May 3, 1993 with a radio simulcast on DZBB 594 Radyo Bisig Bayan and Campus Radio 97.1 WLS FM
How the hell did Rusty survive that horrific frightening crash!! His car went the whole length of the straightaway field in the air, barrel-rolling at least 7 times by the end. 🤯 3:29:53
Key thing is flipped that will knock the wind out of you maybe hurt your back but not kill you. If he hit a wall he may have been severely hurt. It's the sudden stop that brakes bones. And can kill you.
Ja, das American NASCAR racing ist probably das most honorable American sport. :-) It definitely has das highest single event fan attendance of any other American sport.
Yep. And it was Indian Curse struck Davey Allison when his own helicopter crash near garage infield of Talladega Superspeedway and died in hospital 24 hours later. You think the racetrack is haunted by our ancestors?
Also the Indian curse is a mthy around garage . There's no doc of a burial ground there or anywhere close by and if was doc I'd say it be shit ton paperwork in 60s to go around that
Some say a Indian family was murdered there by outlaws . One is trib chef got killed by calvary there's another Seminole and Cherokee had battle there. Butttttttttt no doc in the books
Something I can really appreciate about these broadcasts, they talk about every driver out there as much as the other.. Earnhardt gets a little more attention but nowadays it seems like they fixate on one or two guys and say their name all race long. Especially when Danica was racing.
@@JackTheripper911 not everytime, but then it was "Dale Earnhardt is running in 30th" like it was a suprise. Regardless of the few that get more attention, they mention most all the guys and their sponsors! Now, tv will barely mention a sponsor unless they pay the network.
This may sound a bit weird, but hear me out. You could make an argument that Mark Martin's pre-race electrical problem led to Rusty's crash at the end of the race. How? In the time it took them to go 1 more pace lap they could have gone 3-4 laps at full speed which, assuming the race had played out the same way, means the caution for rain would have come out on lap 183 or 184 and NASCAR never would have considered throwing the red flag at that point and let the race finish under caution thus avoiding Rusty's crash.
Wish they showed what happened as the 3 car drove back up pit road. All the teams threw anything they could at his car. After the interview you can see his windshield cracked.
@@drivin379 Go set your ass in one at Bristol Daytona or Darlington in July and get back to me on ur comment as you crying for your momma. #beentheredonethat
Irvan was a bad ass driver. Had balls the size of coconuts. Love when he got in 28 car. To bad he never really got to his potential. He would of been one of the greats but got hurt. He did things in that 28 car that davey couldn't even do.
I completely agree on Ernie! Dude was a combo of Earnhardt and Kyle Busch before his career changing accident. He would race the wheels off of anything and hated settling for second. It's a shame what happened at Michigan in 1994. The tire wars costed a lot of people in the late 80's and early 90's. Irvan, Allison and Kulwicki were 3 huge figures in this sport that we lost, obviously Irvan is still alive, far too early.
I rem a kid watching a baseball game on big satellite tv and was had no commercial ..during break announcer saying test 123 tommy lasodor can u hear me testing testing. Ohh its working. Bout that time tommy lasodor said ...I JUST FARTED DID YOU HEAR THAT me and my parents were crying from laughing and 5 secs later commercial break was over they had to do bull pen shot cause announcers were laughing couldn't talk ........
I was at that race in person. Jimmy Horton was the driver, literally landed outside the track, his car looked just like Rusty’s when they brought it back around eventually. One of the craziest things ever, although you really couldn’t see anything with all the dirt and dust.
1997 May Talladega is where Craven goes over the wall. 1996 actually and he just went up on the fence. I could have swore he went over the wall but I guess I'm mistaken
@@sevendst19 When the guy went over the wall in 1993, they put up the fence that saved Craven in 1996. I dont really remember much about Jimmy Horton as a driver....
Rusty thought he was finally gonna get his plate win, Sr's move for the lead right before the rain delay showed that Dale was just letting him have some fun... He coulda passed him whenever he felt like it...
This was the only time I ever saw Rusty try at Talladega. I feel like he mostly just rode around in the middle of the pack his whole career there. He finally figured out Daytona and could run well there, but he never ran well at Talladega
That’s why I’m glad to see Penske run well at the two tracks nowadays. Rusty could never find that luck that he’d need to win a points race at those places.
@@sevendst19I disagree Rusty Wallace had some good finishes at Talladega late in his career. Also Penske for most of Rusty Wallace time wasn't fast on the plate races.
For me, this will always be remembered as NASCARS greatest era. 1990-2000. FYI Earnhardt absolutely took out Wallace . Of course Dale was concerned afterwards because of the severity of the wreck, don’t make him out to be some kind of hero for stopping. He thought he killed Rusty!
I say NASCAR’s golden age was the mid 90s to mid 2000s. Although I personally have nostalgia for the late 2000s early 2010s, I’ll admit that that era wasn’t as good as this era
Reason dale wrecked him is rusty tried block dale and clipped him ..dale had hell of a run coming and rusty was like ohhhhhh nooooo u don't ohhhh shit I shoukda stayed put
This was my first race live. We left at the red flag. Was sitting in the Talladega grandstand 10 rows from the track pretty much right in front of where Rusty's car stopped. Vowed never to leave a race early again and never did lol.
I didn't realize how much I missed racing with Bob, Ned, and Benny calling it until I started watching these old recordings.
you said it
😢 I know, right.
RIP Bob Jenkins. What a talent.

As an Ernie fan, I'm now incredibly excited to watch the end.
I watch these old races so I don't have to stomach modern day NASCAR.
@badtupram . . . trust me, your sentiments are shared by many!
Woke nascar sucks. Love this Era of nascar. I'm sure I was watching this race live

Same.

One of the best starts to a race ever!
First of only a handful of starts for Ritchie Petty. Very cool to be able to see this.
Best opening laps I've ever seen!

This is one of my favorite races of all time -- very underrated.
This is exactly why NASCAR was so popular back then.They threw the red flag because they knew that's what the fans wanted.Incredible final 2 laps!

I have last known pic of him alive 45 min b4 crash if interested and his pilot and son of hooters owner and security guy in background
And a pic at Martinsville just so happen that davey and Alan car are side by side on pit road

He thankfully didn’t come to a sudden stop, which most likely saved him, but I’m still surprised that he came out of it as well as he did.

I was in the stands that day. My beer was one of hundreds that went over the fence when Earnhardt returned to pit road.
That's a lie. Teams on pit road did not throw things at Dale's car.
i believe these 3 men where the best nascar broadcasters ever all three coming over to ESPN once The Nashville Network went away
Not sure what you mean. TNN was broadcasting races too up to 2000 just as ESPN did.
good feed
This was one of the two races that year that brought up the roof flaps thanks to Rusty Wallace's infamous flying barrel roll wreck. (3:29:53)
The best racing ever.
The good old days, the golden age of racing!! When Earnhardt ruled Nascar.
People still say these guys weren't athlete's. I say step into a room that is 140F and do calisthenics for 3 hours.

You're unintelligent
It was not intentional - Rusty also took the blame for it
Well you’re fairly stupid. Rusty admitted it was his fault, and dale was obviously shook up.
I say NASCAR’s golden age was the mid 90s to mid 2000s. Although I personally have nostalgia for the late 2000s early 2010s, I’ll admit that that era wasn’t as good as this era

Isn’t Stirling Marlin the driver of the number 4?
Marlin took over for Irvan after Irvan took over for davey
Ernie was till later in the year when he took over The #28 at Darlington
@@JJA1987 Ok
Sterling didn't drive the #4 car until the beginning of the 1994 season. For 1993, he drove the #8 car
This was my first race live. We left at the red flag. Was sitting in the Talladega grandstand 10 rows from the track pretty much right in front of where Rusty's car stopped. Vowed never to leave a race early again and never did lol.
Sterling Marlin never had the class to go check on Dale every time he wrecked Dale.
I would have retired. But that's just me.dale started 2nd In points and finished 1st
