I was there that day......Rusty was booed like hell when he came back around and old DW became the NASCAR most popular driver after this. I think he won the award the next two years.
I remember this race like yesterday. I think I broke my remote by throwing it across the room. I was a huge DW fan. At least he got revenge and won the 600 a week later.
It's sad how far they've fallen since then. Dale died, the Chase came, the car of tomorrow, "playoffs", lucky dogs, wavearounds, hard tires....too many negative changes and too much idiocy in the front offices.
btw, thanks again Smiff. what a gem, particularly the jeff hammond "but if you come in my truck, you aint gonna like it" footage and the press confererence at the end. pure gold.
Hammond has and always was an overrated dick. Tim brewer set him up at juniors and he road his coat tails until he ran it into the ground. he never did squat without Darrell or superior equipment
Best $200k DW ever lost! He became a retired superstar/ retired broadcaster because the fans appreciated him after this and who knows, he may have never been successful in tv without this..
About an hour before the video finishes, you could tell Jeff Hammond was pissed. DW maybe was even more pissed too. $200K on the line only to be taken away by a young and cocky Rusty Wallace. And it was the reversal of the roles. Everybody hated Darrell and liked Rusty and then it changed to where everyone sided with DW and hated Rusty. That's Winston Cup racing for you.
I didn't like dw or rusty🤷♂️ always thought dw was a crybaby, still is, rusty was rusty lol... like them both now, as drivers... couldn't stand them...🤣
DW: I couldn't walk through the garage after doing that to someone. Ummm pretty sure DW wrecked his share. He was actually hated for it for many years. haha
@fuckcensorship69 I think you could say that. He was holding Rusty down coming off the turns which is how you defend the lead especially in those days so it's pretty much a block. Rusty just didn't lift and what happened happened. It's a 50/50 chance of wrecking himself in that case so it's not like he punted him going into a corner.
Rustys car was really getting through 3-4, he was closing down on him every lap there. I think Rusty legit tried to get under him, he touched him but it wasn't much of a hit, he literally barely touched him. I was at the 2010 all star race and watched Jimmie Johnson spin out in that same spot without even being touched, he just came off the corner underneath another car and spun out. It doesn't take much to turn a car around right there at Charlotte
Waltrip drove the same line every time and should have dropped down and blocked Wallace. He basicly gave Wallace his left rear up on a plate you can`t do that!
Man I was a Rusty fan but that was pretty lame, I mean wouldn't want to win like that, there is a difference between racing hard and having some contact, and just flat out wrecking someone, Rusty still was my favorite driver until he retired.
Rusty has no room to shit talk Earnhardt after this. It's racing, I don't want to watch the pattycake don't touch me try little racing like today. But Rusty needs to sthu
I forgot about this Kyle Petty wreck at Charlotte, it was a bad one and he's lucky he didn't break his neck that day!...W○W It's funny to see grown men fight like cats & dogs over $250,000 like they did sitting here watching it in 2022...lol NASCAR should have put Waltrip back on the point for the final restart...

I am a Rusty fan always have been I'm not taking up for him or anything but you watch it over and over again it just looks like Daryl came down just a little bit and it didn't take much but I think Daryl should have retained his position I don't know why they sent him to the back at least put him where he was when the yellow was thrown which would at least be second place spinning right behind Rusty so he got screwed on that one also
@@apointtomake1517 Rusty drifted up a few seconds before the wreck, he was holding his line when he caught up with Darrell. The spin happened when Darrell came down on him.
@@SubmissionGrappler83 my God man. Watch the interview. Rusty even said "Darrell DID NOT come down he was holding his line and I got into him". You don't believe the ones that were driving the cars ? I know this comment section is old but 🙄.
Les was 100% right. You can see DW came down slightly. Rusty ran the same line he’d run, for @ least 4 laps. Regardless, it wasn’t intentional, by either driver. It only proved what a whiner & sore loser DW is (almost as has as D Hamlin)

Yup DW was most popular driver in 89 and 90.
No. Only 89 & 90.

Thank you so much for this upload...

55:35 "That Earnhardt's one tough, stubborn customer", He is Bobby he's really is tough.
Thank you for the upload. I can't get enough of these old races from the 70s and 80s. 😊
In 1989 we got controversy like this. in 2021 we get.... road course curbing... slow clap...
It's sad how far they've fallen since then. Dale died, the Chase came, the car of tomorrow, "playoffs", lucky dogs, wavearounds, hard tires....too many negative changes and too much idiocy in the front offices.
it's worse with young idiot running it

So true. I was a huge DW fan. On this day he finally became a fan favorite. Rusty became the villain.
@@stargazer7876 man Rusty was cocky! Hell, he still is!

Interesting to hear Paul Page pronounce Terry Labonte's last name, to say the least...
Sorry Rusty. The replay shows your car pushing up into DW's. Waltrip held his line.
So obviously you did not watch Rusty's interview at the end ?
“Never under estimate your competition, and that’s what I did with Rusty.”
-Darrell Waltrip
Interesting broadcast team for this race. Haven’t ever seen the three of these guys together
Never did like Rusty.
2:42:00 Jerry Punch taking no shit lol
DW: I couldn't walk through the garage after doing that to someone.
Ummm pretty sure DW wrecked his share. He was actually hated for it for many years. haha
Yeah, a convenient bit of history that people ignore when worshipping Saint Darrel
Not for wrecking anyone, hated for yapping his Jaws! Earnhardt was hated for wrecking just about everyone.
Darrell Waltrip doesn't like this video.
Exactly what I though.
Fuck that lying peice of shit big mouth
@@brianbooher7318 I hope you talkin bout the lil punk Wallace.
@@CC.94 actually they both are jack asses
I don't hate Waltrip but in 1992 when he sent Allison tumbling at Pocono that was just a racing deal?
It was Davey throwing a late block and paying the price.
@@MrBurney12 same thing DW did here

Rusty dumped him.. Benny, Mike

25:05 race start
Rusty should have been sent to the rear. This race pushed away a lot of good race fans.
Rolls reversed Daryl would have done the same that's Nascar.
No way. Dw was a clean driver. Cocky as hell big mouth but very clean racer.
Rusty has no room to shit talk Earnhardt after this. It's racing, I don't want to watch the pattycake don't touch me try little racing like today. But Rusty needs to sthu
Paul Paige doing stock car races was forgettable.
The cameraman at DWs hauler just keeps trying to look at womens booties instead of keeping it wide to see the scene.
A man with priorities. I applaud him.
the brunette was hottie. probably 60 now
That''s just racing. Rusty didn't turn right and DW didn't turn left.
I forgot about this Kyle Petty wreck at Charlotte, it was a bad one and he's lucky he didn't break his neck that day!...W○W
It's funny to see grown men fight like cats & dogs over $250,000 like they did sitting here watching it in 2022...lol
NASCAR should have put Waltrip back on the point for the final restart...
These days, they probably would and you'd all still be bitching about it. 😆
20:23 20:33
Just hold down the pedal and pretend your not going hit the car on the outside when your car slides up. A gorilla could have done that!
And Nascar let him by with it just like they did Dale so many times. Anyone else notice Earnhardt coming up beside Wallace under the caution ? I wonder if he gestured to Rusty like "hell yeah". Rusty always seemed to want to be buddies with Dale.
Rusty & Dale WERE buddies, their families went on vacations together.
@@jesseyoungblood6265 Rusty and Dale earnhardt were buddies But earnhardt would break that pact in a millisecond just to win
Rusty cared way more about his friend. Rusty cared way more about his friendship with earnhardt
Dale treated Rusty like a friend that was a fool for trusting him

Darrell came down? Spoken like a true Rusty idiot... Rusty refused to lift to hold the low line, instead he drifted right up into Darrell.
@@apointtomake1517 Rusty drifted up a few seconds before the wreck, he was holding his line when he caught up with Darrell. The spin happened when Darrell came down on him.
Agreed
@@SubmissionGrappler83 my God man. Watch the interview. Rusty even said "Darrell DID NOT come down he was holding his line and I got into him". You don't believe the ones that were driving the cars ? I know this comment section is old but 🙄.
@@CC.94 I didn’t watch the interview until now. Do you know how to use your nice words to get your point across?
Rusty was always dirty!!! Should been fined or banned a race for the wreck! Darrell always a good man!!!
Almost 30 years ago, but I agree that Darrell should have been put back in front with 2 laps to go...jussayin
Except it doesn't work that way.
nascar should have either gone back in time or not gone back in time. instead they tried to go back in time halfway.
Les was 100% right. You can see DW came down slightly. Rusty ran the same line he’d run, for @ least 4 laps. Regardless, it wasn’t intentional, by either driver. It only proved what a whiner & sore loser DW is (almost as has as D Hamlin)
