Isn't it true that Dale Earnhardt Sr. was absolutely, unquestionably, without a doubt, the best driver EVER?

May be...

  • While he was definitely great, my vote goes to Richard Petty. This is not meant to disrespect the Intimidator, it is just my honest opinion. I think a lot of people forget how impressive the old generation were just because we can only hear stories about them or just barely remember watching them.(I'm 36.)
  • he definitely was one of the best in nascar.
  • He was one of the best drivers ever in NASCAR, without a doubt.



    GO 24!!!!
  • For now. If Kyle Busch ever calms down, and wises up... Senior could be in for a run for his money. I believe that Senior could handle a car just as well as Rowdy, and he had much more knowledge of the car. But, KyB wins in ALL the cars, Truck, N-wide, and Cup. Senior only won a few times in then-Busch and 76 times in cup. Overall, Shrub will have more championships, but only 2, maybe 3 in Cup. Senior will always be the best CUP driver ever, but Richard Petty is a close second.
  • Yes most certainly was! Wish he were still here! RIP
  • He was a great driver for his time. But if you ask Nascar drivers who the best driver of all time was. Im pretty sure majority would say "The Silver Fox" David Pearson. Even "The King" Richard Petty has said that David Pearson was a better driver than himself.
  • BEST DRIVER EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    MY FAVORITE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!...
  • NO! Not in his era or any other era. He may have been a good driver, but not the best.
  • he's on the list
  • Can;' say that anyone was unquestionably the best. It's an opinion. People will always have differing opinions on everything.
  • I am/was/will be forever a Dale fan, BUT he was a dirty driver, even when he didn't need to be. It's hard to compare Dale to other legends like David Pearson, Bobby Allison, and Richard Petty. Dale has done things in a car that noone else could do and get away with. How many times have we seen some other driver try an Earnhardt maneuver and wind up wrecking himself? A bunch of times. Dale's an easy top 5 pick for best stock car driver ever, but Richard Petty's record makes Earnhardt look like a rookie. Petty won the Daytona 500 7 times. It took Dale 20 years just to win it once.
  • One of the best BUT not the best. J Gordon has better stats than he does. No one is/was better than David Pearson !!!!! He has the best stats and they're better than The King or Yarborough.
  • Not the best ever, and Im a HUGE fan of Big E.
    He is unquestionably in the top five of anybodies list, if they are truly honest with themselves.
    He was the best of his era. I would put David Pearson as the best. Then a toss up for second, between Petty and Earnhardt.
    It is too hard to compare drivers of different eras, by any standard means.
    Petty has the most wins, also the most starts. He raced in an era of 40-50 races a year, with factory sponsors and maybe 3-4 cars with a strong chance to win.
    Pearson had the same advantages, won a higher percentage of starts, and beat Petty 38-29 in the races that they finished 1-2.
  • Two words, Richard Petty.
  • <three fingers held up, eyes closed, face cast down, somber mood>
  • The best of his time, yes.

  • He was definitely one of the best !
