NASCAR has improved greatly since his death. That is a proven fact.

I sincerly hope you're referring to all the safety measures implemented since his passing.

He was one of a kind and irreplaceable. He most def. influenced NASCAR and helped push it to where it is today. Just wish he would've put JG in the wall a few more times and much harder...

Put down the crackpipe and take 3 steps back !

Since his death and Bill Elliott's retirement, I couldnt care less who is in NASCAR. I grew up loving to watch Dale get beat by anyone. But since his death, NASCAR has never been the same. I 'may' catch 3 or 4 races a year now. Couple all that with the cheesy "chase", and it's a joke of a series now.

Nope, I missed it. I never was & never will be an Earnhardt fan. I do like to watch anything relating to NASCAR.

Bill Elliott was the man. Ernheart can suck my donkey's... never mind. That guy was a total *** on the track. Best race ever was when ernhart was to agressive and elliott put the smackdown on him. Don't miss #3 at all and I laugh at all the loosers with his sticker on there car. I don't follow nasscar after about the 1987 season when they changed all the rules to slow down elliott. Now they might as well call nasscar the IROC series. They took all the manufacturer compitition out of the mix.

I watched it. I thought it was good along with 3 that came out a couple years ago.

I've never been a Nascar fan but when I hear something about Dale I always stick around to see what it is.

If you contnue to dwell on the past, your future will be bleak.

I liked Dale Sr., even though I am a Hendrick racing fan. Dale Sr. was a great driver, yes. He was a great personality, yes. He sold out racetracks, yes. Well, he is gone. It's time to move on.

Now we can all watch how popular his boy will be with the Earnhardt nation's #1 rival, Hendrick Motorsports. Dale Sr. would be proud.

I plan on seeing the movie. I'm sure it is great.

I never was an Earnhart fan. I like a competitor and I like a winner, but he crossed over the line too many times for me. I feel the same about Tony Stewart. IMy favorite was Bill Elliott.

Bleh, NASCAR sucks!

National Association for Stock Car Auto Racing? PLEASE, tell me... where the HELL is the stock car? Are they referring to the special edition pace cars?

Its just another advertisement/soap opera like any other "professional" sport these days. Its all the same car driving around in circles... wow, exciting!

youre taking the literal idea of a "stock" "car", and not a stock car. and you are obviously confused.
