The Speed Channel is showing an hour long special about Dale Sr right now.

Wether you like NASCAR or not, ou should watch it. The way he lost his life is as legendary as it is tragic.

He passed on a last lap wreck protecting the lead of his friend and the 2nd place position of his son on the last lap of one of the worlds greatest races.

Edit: forgot to mention both waltrip (the winner of that race) and dale's son (finished 2nd) both drove for Seniors race team. It was waltrip first win ever and he didn't get to celebrate it because his bestfriend lost his life protecting his lead.
