Year: 2004

Set: Press Pass Dale Earnhardt The Legacy Victories (Rate)

Card: #31 Dale Earnhardt


“ This was an interesting set. Dale Earnhardt won 76 races in his career, and each one got a card in this set. He was unquestionably one of the best drivers ever, and when he was killed in an accident on the last lap of the 2001 Daytona 500 (The sport's biggest race) it shook the NASCAR world with reverberations still felt today. The image of fellow driver Ken Schrader looking into the window and stumbling back while calling for safety workers, son Dale Earnhardt Jr. running towards the hospital (which is close to the track) and race winner, employee and friend Michael Waltrip collapsing in tears when told Dale had not survived while in victory lane, celebrating his first win in a career that began in 1985...those are images that anyone who saw them happen live will never forget. This set was issued in factory set form, it was later reissued as an insert in various Press Pass products smaller, with a gray border, with a vintage style card back and serially numbered to 875. ” -Billy Kingsley

“ I wonder if Billy will have anything to say about this? Probably not. ” -NJdevils

“ Interesting how the shade of blue on his car is lighter than his suit. ” -jlaz10
