After Jeremy moved earnhardt and won the race Dale keyed the mic and told richard Childress to not say anything to mayfield, I guess Jeremy earned his respect
I met Jeremy 2 months after that Pocono win at 12 years old down here in FL 20 mins west of Daytona international speedway. He and a few other drivers were singing autographs at our local grocery store and I handed Jeremy a page from a magazine that showed him giving the bumper to Earnhardt. I said Mr Mayfield can you sign this please he said hell yeah of course thanks for coming out I said that was one hell of a win man he laughed and after signing his name he wrote one hell of a win man on that picture.
Loved being able to hear this story! I was watching that race as a huge Earnhardt fan. I wanted him to get that win and I was pissed. After about an hour, I realized that was pretty effing cool given how many times we saw Dale on the other side of it. And he didn't try to just wreck him. It was ballsy and he deserved to get a race win for it. And if he hadn't won, I'm guessing the big guy would've been way less understanding. I can only imagine how pissed-off he was in the moment. Makes me laugh to think about. Being a Dale Earnhardt fan was an amazing ride. That said, Jeremy Mayfield has a golden moment in big-time racing that no one can ever take from him.
I remember well❤️😀 Dale was SO mad. He couldn't believe Jeremy had the guts to bump him. So glad that Dale hugged him before the race that awful day.❤️ He even made a sign to "vote Jeremy off the island" as in Survivor. Great races back then. I miss those days.
The thing I remember most about the Pocono incident, was how tickled Buddy Baker was in the booth "let me tell ya something, you live by the sword, you die by the sword" 😆 I miss Ol' Buddy 🙏
great interview and glad you had him on. Will never know all the answers but one thing is certain he needs AD medicine and I don't doubt he took meds to calm down. Fast talking, sentence structure runs on and he has a quick ticker. After listening to him I believe he was screwed, some of it was deserved but politics in NASCAR is nothing new !!
Mayfield was my guy, went to many races between 2000 and 2010…. A lot of great memories for me rooting for him…. Listened to him on the radio during all of those races…. Thank you, Jeremy for all of the great memories…. The most exciting race for me was the 2003 Dover race whenever he finished second to Ryan Newman…. I knew during that entire race that he had the car to beat, just did not work out in the end… but, being there was great!!!! Like I said, thank you for all of the memories, Curtis!!!!!!!
That was actually the first race I ever attended with my then girlfriend now wife! We worked with somebody who knew somebody who helped us get pit passes through Steve Grissom's team. And we enjoyed all the perks of following Dale's car through inspection and hanging out in Dale's pit all day! We even helped cover the toolboxes and such when it started raining in one turn. We were so pissed when Jeremy knocked Dale out of the way but it's kind of cool to hear the story behind it after all these years. We weren't allowed to have alcohol in the pits during the race but after we left and we're sitting in traffic in the parking lot folks kept giving us beers and we were pretty lit by the time we finally left the parking lot. When we got home I watched the race and saw myself taking pictures of Dale getting his pit stops! I screamed to my wife "I'm on TV!!!"😁 The Square D car had issues and left so their pit was empty and that is where I stood! Those were fond memories of our trip from Ohio to Pocono!!! Now we live next door to Mooresville NC!!!🏁
That's an awesome story. I was behind pit wall at Auto Club this year during pre-race. It's so cool seeing the crews set up for the race. My friend asked one of Chase Briscoe pit crew members about the tires, and I jinxed Blaney's pit crew by wishing them luck 😰🤣. You can also watch tech inspection and see the cars go by in the Infield at Phoenix. It's an experience like no other getting that close
I remember my first trip to pocono, dale sr won both saturday and sunday that year! Never will forget waking up sunday am and realizing I'd forgotten tooth paste (i camped out in my '77 chevy van) asked some good ole boys camping next to me if they had any, one hands me a jar of shine and says, "nah we aint got any, but here this will work as good as any mouth wash"....I damn sure needed something, so I took a swallow and swirled it around my mouth and spit it out as fasts as I could! Then he give me a drink of orange juice, which I definitely swallowed in one big gulp to put out the fire from that shine! super cool memories thanks for sharing.....I'm about 30 miles or so north or Martinsville here! Wish I'd have been there live to seen the "hail mellon" a few weeks ago!
As Jeremy’s #1 fan I was there that day and I was not a #3 fan in the least until Dales answer to the question what he said to Jeremy when he pulled up next to him after the race…I told him he was #1! Instantly Dale became my #2 favorite driver…Period!
In an alternate universe Dale didn't die. Nascar didn't go to playoffs and stage racing, and still is popular. He would be the president of it and I would still be a fan
@@NickyD you just don't understand what TV demands and what you get are two different things. Sr. WAS NASCAR they took his advice and direction seriously
@@billmadison2032 Nascar was going more and more corporate. I think you guys are naive to that. Yeah Dale was a huge influence but hundreds of millions is more of an influence. One thing you also don't realize is that the racing was exciting back then due to less engineering. Now, the cars are so perfect that it takes the art of racing away (to a point). Things were going to change either way
@@NickyD Nascar new Earnhardt had a big enough fan base that he could control Nascar, and that included the TV audience. If Dale was still with us there would be no Toyotas and no stage racing.
@@Ka_Gg It didn't matter how corporate Nascar became. More than half the people that came to the races, and watched them on TV were Earnhardt fans. If Earnhart had decided to boycott Nascar most of his fans would have done the same, and Nascar knew he had that much power and would not have taken a chance on the loss of that much revenue trying to go against Earnhardt.
I was at that race; the fans went crazy 😂. The Earnhardt fans couldn’t have been more pissed, the others (remembering Dale turning Terry LaBonte at Bristol) were cheering like hell. Thought there was going to full-blown riot 😂🤣.
Wow it's amazing, that after 22 years of actually being at that race and remembering that day multiple times in my life of how upset we were, coming full circle and hearing Jeremy talk about it this way is incredible. Forever a memory.
This was the first time ever going to a nascar race. Flew from Montana to see it. If I remember correctly it got rained out Sunday. We made the best off it by sitting in the rain drinking boiler makes with my new Canadian friends. We were some of the last people to stumble out of there that rainy night.
That Pocono race was the first NASCAR race I ever watched, but I knew before that Earnhardt was my grandfather driver. I became a Mayfield fan that day.
Real racers . Don't hold grudges in a situation like Dale and Jeremy had at pocono. Jeremy and dale were both real racers. Not like some of the cry babys of today.
I was born in 94 and I just remember growing up looking at those guys racing then and thinking those are tough sobs. Not one driver makes me think that now
The more I listen to him the more I think I'm hearing Boomhauer talking. Dang ol' drivin my race car and dad gum Rusty says to take 4 tires and yeah man dang ol 3 car goes zoom. Dang ol.. Fast, man
This podcast has created a lot of interest in Jeremy and a few people have posted some of his highlights. This race being one of them. Watching it again what you see is Jeremy really did race him with respect and class - Dale got loose and Jeremy helped for sure, and he was probably going to move him if that didn't happen. But like the announcers and Jeremy said, Dale would have done the exact same thing. I do think Jeremy's comments were a little too cocky, by repeating the "rattle his cage" part. But Dale's comment that the one finger hand signal was just him letting Jeremy know, "you're #1" is Classic.
Listening to him however....? I can shift.... I shifted.... I can pretty much shift and down shift. You know what I'm talking about. I can nudge him. He's already loose. "Boom like at!" I knew he wuz pissed!...... Class dismissed.
This kinda made me cry, when he said he said Dale had such a big heart I felt like he was saying that Dale just had a lot of fun and he just loved this sport so much and it was the best time of his life, the thing that made me cry is thinking about how the thing he loved took everything away from him, it’s kinda hard to think about, RIP Dale Earnhardt
This is the type of racing and racers I like. Guys that are annoyed you beat them but respect the situation. Like Kyle Larson vs Busch a few years ago where they got into it and during the celebration Larson congratulated him. Too many drivers now will just cry about getting bumped a little....like, race them back that same way. You both understand the situation. Everyone cries about the way Logano drives but nobody ever gives it back to him. (I'm not a logano guy)
My house is still covered in 12 and 19 gear. In fact, I still have the custom t-shirt that I made in Las Vegas when Jeremy raced the truck race for Billy Balew. One of my finest memories of spending time with Jeremy and Shayna was at the NASCAR driver edition of $100,000 pyramid. Two of the other drivers for that show where John Andretti and Christian Fittipaldi. Perhaps someone that was at that show or remember that can fill me in on the 4th driver. I am a recovering addict myself and I can almost guarantee you.. if it "takes one to know one"...Jeremy aint one. Let's not one of us ever ever forget the hypocrisy of Brian France.
@@Sceneyour It never ceases to amaze me how dumb NASCAR fans are. Had Mike Bliss not crashed at this race, Tony Stewart was running away with the win. Between he and Rusty dominating, it was a snooze fest until the last 15 laps...
I highly recommend NBC use clips from this interview during rain delay coverage in the future. My dad would love to hear this interview but he does not use the internet
Can everyone please go watch the Richard Childress podcast where Richard says: “when Jeremy bumped him out of the way, Dale got on the radio and told me *Dale:“Richard! Richard! Don’t you do nothing!”* Richard was about to tell Dale to wreck him and Dale calmed Richard down. Dale would shoot the bird a lot just for the fun of it. He flipped off Ray everham pulling into the pits in 1997 Daytona after the ambulance incident. But he had a big smile on his face while he was doing it. - Dale did it in the sense of “I’ll get you next time, or I’m still here btch!”. 2001 Daytona 500 lap 88 Dale flipped of Kurt Busch for ice skating off turn #4 I imagine Kurt did the rookie move of getting air under the car coming off 4 and you lose traction and start ice skating or we would back in the day I’m the gen 4 before the repave
mayfield was one of the very best drivers in nascar, too bad the coats and ties had to railroad him the way they did. they lost a lot more than they gained
I remember Mayfield's heydey, it was an interesting time in NASCAR, I didn't like the Fords much, but they tended to have the best paint schemes around that time, and Jeremy's Mobil 1 car was no exception.
That happened on a Monday after a rain delay. I remember getting home from school just in time to get passed off at Jeremy lol. Glad to see he's straightened himself out.
Too bad NASCAR forgot they were built on the backs of ole boys like this. Thats why this is the only NASCAR related material I have consumed in 8 years or more.
Yeah, there wasn’t much Dale could say about losing that one. He knew deep down he just got beat when his car broke loose. “The Finger” was just out of frustration, I’m sure…
I appreciate hearing these old stories of nascar. Was a die hard fan. Haven't kept up in years. Love the podcast. Nascar went down hill after Winston series. Never been the same, different breed of people and racers. New generation of nascar sucks.
Mayfield has always been super genuine and likeable. NASCAR has always been a bunch of megalomaniacs and continue finding new ways each year to alienate more and more fans with increasingly terrible playoff system (that should have never been conceived) and pacifying a few leftists.
After Jeremy moved earnhardt and won the race Dale keyed the mic and told richard Childress to not say anything to mayfield, I guess Jeremy earned his respect
From the Richard episode about who was the instigator out of him and sr. Love it 😂
So glad that Jeremy got to tell this story. Thanks, Dale!
I met Jeremy 2 months after that Pocono win at 12 years old down here in FL 20 mins west of Daytona international speedway. He and a few other drivers were singing autographs at our local grocery store and I handed Jeremy a page from a magazine that showed him giving the bumper to Earnhardt. I said Mr Mayfield can you sign this please he said hell yeah of course thanks for coming out I said that was one hell of a win man he laughed and after signing his name he wrote one hell of a win man on that picture.

I must admit I was madder than hell -
So true
I was at that race and was decked out in my Jeremy Mayfield gear! I was cheering! Love you, Jeremy!
I find very telling how Jeremy speaks of Dale Earnhardt as if he's still alive. As if he's still here. I felt that.
I remember well❤️😀 Dale was SO mad. He couldn't believe Jeremy had the guts to bump him. So glad that Dale hugged him before the race that awful day.❤️ He even made a sign to "vote Jeremy off the island" as in Survivor. Great races back then. I miss those days.
I do too!
That 12 car was a beautiful paint job too. Let's not forget that, too.
The Pegasus logo over the rear quarter panels was so BEAUTIFUL
That was GREAT Dale story. My Heart goes out to Jeremy.
Love these interviews with Mayfield.
The thing I remember most about the Pocono incident, was how tickled Buddy Baker was in the booth "let me tell ya something, you live by the sword, you die by the sword" 😆

Great video. Sure miss SR.
We know it would’ve happened the same way in reverse if Dale was the one closing in on mayfield 🥴
Yeah, there wasn’t much Dale could say about losing that one. He knew deep down he just got beat when his car broke loose. “The Finger” was just out of frustration, I’m sure…
It was karma after Dale wrecked Labonte for the win at Bristol lol
Jeremy could be a podcaster and I'd tune in.
Remember buddy baker said live by the sword die by the sword
Mayfield could have been like Rusty, Stewart, or Bill Elliot famous. Shame how it all worked out.
SR. was a definite true CHAMPION..
Very enjoyable
