Part two of Dale Earnhardt Jr.'s epic sit-down interview with NASCAR Legend Darrell Waltrip delivers never before told stories and more. Ole DW shares stories about NASCAR tearing down his Junior Johnson Racing machine, suspecting cheating. Some may call it cheating. Others, call it creativity. DW says that they were not "rule-breakers," rather, "rule-makers" in their hey-day. Surprisingly Waltrip admits to using lead-shot and nitrous in racecars, as well as heavy radios and trick helmets. He details how they got away with some of their biggest cheats. Oh, and the time he inadvertently called NASCAR boss Bill France a "dumb ass".

I went to a signing at the K mart across from Daytona when they were sponsor for DW. My departed and disabled brother was a big fan and wanted his autograph. The session was scheduled for 2-4. I could see that most people wouldn't get through, but the gentleman stayed for hours past the deadline till everyone was taken care of. He spent time speaking to each fan and made me a fan for life...

I cannot watch Nascar anymore without any Earnhardts, Waltrips, Wallaces, Jarretts, Allisons, Pettys................even Gordons. But it sure is awesome hearing the stories of these guys from the 70's through the 90's and how great Nascar was back then before it started it's tumble down in the 2000's. I sure miss the old school. Miss that 3!

DW is a talker, and I'm so happy to hear all his stories. He'll be remembered as much for his broadcasting as his driving.

As a European who never heard about Nascar before the year 2000 this is amazing. Seeing how they conducted themselves during the last 50 years puts this series in a whole different perspective.

Dale Junior is such a genuine, intelligent and good hearted person. I can understand why he was the most popular driver for so long. I personally was never a fan of his but certainly didn’t dislike him in anyway. How could anybody dislike him. Years ago I read a book by DW. I can’t remember the name of the book. It was about his father-in-law helping him to get into NASCAR and a lot of the things he did to cheat. There was a lot more in the book other than that but I don’t remember it as it was probably 15 years ago that I read the book. Look it up if you can, it is a good read!

I love stories like that. It's not cheating, it's reading between the lines of the rulebook. My dad worked in IndyCar for many years, and would go to lunch with Smokey Yunick when he was fielding a car for Indy. He said his cheeks hurt afterwards from grinning and laughing so much hearing Smokey tell stories about ingenuity. I think one of my favorite creative solutions was when F1 teams started doing water cooled brakes in the 1980s. Similar to the lead shot, they'd have a good size water tank to make weight, and once the race started, they'd flick a switch and pump all the water out onto the track, supposedly to cool the brakes, but it was really to dump the extra weight. F1 weighed the cars after the race too, but they would top off all the fluids first, so the water tank would get filled up to full again, and the car would be back to the legal weight.

I watched this a long time ago and watched it again today. Cheating is cheating, but like they said "if your car is legal your crew chief isn't doing his job". This and the sheer physical work to drive a racecar back then highlights the championships and the number of races that Earnhardt and Petty won, among other great drivers. Those days are gone and unfortunately so are most of the driver's from back then. I used to race r/c cars and DW's Tide car was my main body. I still have the car and body. DW brings back a lot of good memories. Thank you DW and thank you Jr for having him!
