| rdfs:comment | - Dale Earnhardt was the greatest NASCAR driver since Jesus.
- Ralph Dale Earnhardt Sr. (April 29, 1951 – February 18, 2001) was the most successful secret agent ever trained by the Canadian military. Upon the end of the cold war, he decided to try his hand at automobile racing. He began his career in open cockpit formula race cars, but was not allowed to compete because his mustache interfered with the full-face helmet required to drive open cockpit cars. "Damn you sonsabitches!" he replied. "I'll go drive them redneck cars!" Before his death, he was responsible for kicking everyone's asses in NASCAR.
- Two of his four children are also NASCAR drivers: his son Dale Earnhardt, Jr. is a successful driver on the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series circuit, and is a former Xfinity Series champion. His other son, Kerry Earnhardt is a journeyman driver who has competed in all three national NASCAR series. His widow, Teresa Earnhardt, is a successful race car owner.

- Ralph Dale Earnhardt Sr. (April 29, 1951 – February 18, 2001) was the most successful secret agent ever trained by the Canadian military. Upon the end of the cold war, he decided to try his hand at automobile racing. He began his career in open cockpit formula race cars, but was not allowed to compete because his mustache interfered with the full-face helmet required to drive open cockpit cars. "Damn you sonsabitches!" he replied. "I'll go drive them redneck cars!" It took a while for him to get use to the rigorous demands of NASCAR, but after three years he finally broke himself of the habit of turning right, and became the most successful NASCAR driver in history. He became known as "Ironhead" after he showed up at the track wearing a metallic exoskeleton which made him impervious to gunfire and gave him the ability to fly thanks to rocket boosters. Later, he became known as "The Intimidator" after he started making comments in drivers' meetings that he knew at least seventy-six ways to kill a man with his bare hands. Before his death, he was responsible for kicking everyone's asses in NASCAR.
- Two of his four children are also NASCAR drivers: his son Dale Earnhardt, Jr. is a successful driver on the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series circuit, and is a former Xfinity Series champion. His other son, Kerry Earnhardt is a journeyman driver who has competed in all three national NASCAR series. His widow, Teresa Earnhardt, is a successful race car owner. Earnhardt is best known for his success as a driver in the Winston Cup Series, in which he won seven championships, tied for most all-time with Richard Petty and Jimmie Johnson. His highly aggressive driving style made him a fan favorite and earned him the nickname "The Intimidator." Earnhardt died in a crash on the final lap of the 2001 Daytona 500. Since his death, NASCAR has mandated the use of the HANS device, installed SAFER barriers at all oval tracks, and the Car of Tomorrow, among other new safety devices and concepts.
