Let me tell you the banking in the corners are a lot bigger in person. They do tours all the the time and they keep the previous Daytona 500 Winning car as is in the museum. Maybe one day I could visit Silverstone 😂
My wife was in the hospital the week before after giving birth to our twins, being superstitious I parked on level E all week when visiting her and the babies. That Sunday was a special day, bringing home our twins and seeing my favorite driver win.
There’s something to these silly superstitions. I’m a Blaney fan and I work in a skyscraper. During his championship run last year, I would always get off the elevator on the 12th floor then walk down 2 floors to my office. lol
@@jonahmosher3314 He had the best car the entire week. Even Tony says at the end. “We were just happy to run with him this entire race, but when he wanted to pull the pin he pulled it”. The only chance anyone had at this car was if the run in with the 97 actually would have damaged it. People stupidly believe this was rigged cause after Tony passed him, Jr. was content to ride around in the lead pack the entire rest of the race until after finals pit stops so once he got the lead it was over. No one would stupidity say that crap if he led 150 laps like he could have.
We were there that day and I got to watch my favorite driver win the race and it was my first time at Daytona after watching it on TV for many many years !!
This was a really solid era of racing. Maybe not the best decade, but the best one of the 4 I've been around for. Too bad we couldn't go back to this no stages, no playoffs, just racing. One thing from today that should stay is GWC finishes instead of caution finishes, but otherwise, go back to this.
Jr in victory lane pulling confetti off his back, "what's going on here, it's like a magic trick". I was never a fan of Jr but he had an infectious loving personality.

It kinda disappoints me that people like to call this race boring. It was a really interesting race. The tires were really wearing which means handling was a big deal, Dale jr trying to beat Stewart onto pit road during the final stop, scott wimmer taking 2 tires to try to win it, and the two best cars battling for the win. Not to mention lap traffic kinda playing a factor. I feel like besides junior winning the race this race is really underappreciated.
Very under appericated that long green flag run of 120 laps required more strategy for track position stage racing you can fall 3or 4 laps down and have a chance to win the race with the stages
I was working at the time when the race was on. Listened to the radio from start to finish. It was awesome hearing Jr. win the 500. Especially with what happened three years earlier.
2:26:39 One of the few moments you'll see the Cingular car of Robby Gordon after the crash. I think he just came back out for a few laps and then parked it. (Probably couldn't maintain minimum speed without a nose or a pack of slower cars)
That 8 car is one of the best machines to ever be built Dale Jr pulled the Pin by himself. I watched that live when I was 24 years old and proud to have the raced version elite 1:24 diecast I bought in 2004 that paint scheme and his 2005 Dayton 500 scheme were the best looking Daytona 500 cars. Also was beginning to think he was jinxed at the 500 like his Dad. I told my wife I would marry her only if Dale Jr. won and here I am still married 15 years later
35:52 You’re welcome. Spoiler alert!!! I remember watching this race as a kid. My Mom was losing her mind. She was a huge Jr. fan. I didn’t become a true Jr fan until ‘07. I was a huge Earnhardt Sr. fan as a child but for some reason, I didn’t join the band wagon. I slowly started to enjoy watching Jr race more and more. I am the very rare, true Jr. fan. Unfortunately, my mom isn’t here anymore to reminisce with me.
@@DixietheGoat9 Also worth noting that in '03 the Aaron's 499 was the first race, which was when Jr won 4 straight at Dega. And if I remember correctly, in the fall race (EA Sports 500) Jr finished 2nd. Those DEI cars were probably the most dominant at SS tracks that I remember. I know people like Brad Keslowski have won a lot, but a lot of the time Jr won, Waltrip was 2nd and vice versa.
@@CoryAY82383 Andy Petree, Richard Childress and Dale Earnhardt formed a partnership for restrictor plate racing in the late 90s. It was called RAD, that's why those 3 teams had so much success at Daytona and Talladega back then.
I was about to fly home from Cancun in the bar waiting for our fight and was trying not to watch then saw Jr pass Tony without any help and was like hes going to win. Omg hes going to win. Think ppl thought I was crazy the way I was yelling when he won. So awsome.💜🔥❤🌹
I love that BP keeps screaming for them to flip the car over, then gets told they shouldn’t do that, then goes to MW saying “I was telling them to just flip me over” 😂
Yes, it was funny how he said he'd been yelling at them for 10 minutes to flip him over and then they finally did. But if he'd had a back injury that he maybe couldn't feel at that time that flip could've made it a lot worse. Surely there must be more controlled ways, with some winches attached to the flipping side of the chassis, etc, to flip him over than simply dropping the car on its wheels!?
Never was a big Jr fan growing up but late 90s to the early 2010s was my favorite era of nascar I still watch today but it doesn't hold a candle to this era not even close
After 2003, Michael had bad luck in the Daytona 500: Flipping in 2004, blowing an engine in 2005, finishing 18th in 2006, 30th in 2007, 29th in 2008, and then finishing 7th in 2009 due to rain shortening, 18th in 2010, crashing out in 2011, finishing 22nd in 2013, 41st in 2014, 26th in 2015, 30th in 2016, and an 8th in 2017.

@@richardgrace4500 I think the bigger issue is the cars themselves - they are going too fast and crew chiefs set up for speed at the expense of stability. Plate racing would be so much better if they reduced the speed to 195 maximum in the draft, not this 205+ business. Also the repaves don't help.
Again watching years later brings joy for Dale the father and Dale Jr. The lessons were well used to a Professional Victory! 👍 👍 👍 On the same day of important memories!
“But Allen as you were talking about, Many fans will tell you the greatest moment in nascar racing came more recently than that, when the late Dale Earnhardt sr, won his first and only Daytona 500, 6 years ago today, February 15,1998” This quick small history lesson from Bill is still bone chilling.

2:11:52 Wait, are they getting a winter storm advisory for just 1-3 INCHES!? Weak sauce!! Edit: I know it says 3-5 inches as well, but still pretty weak.
Another note, I always felt bad for Junior when he won it seemed like his father was always brought up in comparison. You could see how uncomfortable it made him feel I think. He changed the subject to the tires. Always been a huge fan of Junior's, was so damn excited that day, hell I was happy the whole year because of this one win, plus the 4 or 5 others that came after. Wonder how it would have gone if he would've kept Tony Sr as his CC for the next few years? Another crazy thing, 10 yrs later, with a new team, a new generation of car, and with another great CC, he wins it again, and had another great season with 4 or 5 wins.
1:30:16 You watch enough of these old races, and realize that Sterling was always critical of the aero package whenever he got caught in the big one. XD In 1999 he was asking for a bigger spoiler, then in 2001 he complained about the wicker, and then in 2003 he wanted the wicker back xD

Haven't watched Nascar since the COT. I will not watch as so many agree until its actually Nascar again. Might as well call it Can Am Now. Lets get back to what Nascar was, divisions of car manufacturers and enjoy the difference
The cars from 2002 to 2006 looked so good
The 90's thru the 00's they looked bad ass
And sounded amazing
I grew up watching every race during 97-07
Raced so good too. Plate tracks have sucked so bad since.
i disagree i hated the look of them the 1998-2001 was perfect
NASCAR was truly thriving at this time. You couldn't go anywhere without seeing something NASCAR-related. People were so enthusiastic about it.

Doesn't matter what anyone else thinks.
