Davey Allison had a hell of a future ahead of him. It's a damn shame he was taken far too early. Kid was a hard charger for sure.

@JukeboxRocker 6 лет назад

Damn, every time I spend a minute thinking about the impact of the loss of Davey Allison, and empathizing with everyone affected by losing the 92 cup championship. Breaks my heart thinking about the effort the team and Davey put in winning, and Davey doing it with serious injuries. Amazing, inspiring, and heartbreaking. Though ultimately comforting, because you know Davey Allison's character was that of a loving, giving, kind, and tough soul, and he is resting with the Lord you can bet on that!

What an amazing time to be in NASCAR. The early 90's was such a boom of talent and innovation. The intersection of knowhow, old school experience, and new fangled engineering.

@adamgropper2072 7 лет назад

On My 1st attempt for a 3rd career mode championship on Nascar'15, I went the similar situation as Davey Allison. Every 2 races was a win, every 3-4 races was a wreck. Had a similar wreck to Davey's at the final 4 race at Homestead and finished 4th in points.

Dave’s was one of the sweetest dudes and tough as hell man. I really wish he could have got that 1992 championship after going through all that and not giving up.

I've always thought that Alan deserved it. Then when Im reminded of all the adversity Davey went thru I wish he had got one. Man he went thru it that year! Hope you're good.

@davidschmude 5 лет назад

1992 was the most entertaining season of NASCAR racing in my lifetime. It doesn't take a genius to figure out that all the changes to the points system in the last two decades have been in an effort to replicate the excitement of that Atlanta race in November 1992. Well, that and trying to get NASCAR's favorite son a championship. Obviously, they couldn't pull off either one.

Racing died a little when we lost those 2 Then when Dale passed so did Nascar It's depressing to talk about! Some of us out here have nothing now ! Some will laugh at my comments and that's okay Feel like the world is not what it used to be Now it's all about $$$ and bad manners leaving some of us wondering what happened. RIP Drivers and The Real Nascar !!! At least we have the good memories!

Not to take anything away from Alan Kulwicki but holy shit Davey shoulda won that year, everything they went through that year, all those wrecks & broken bones & then losing his younger brother. Getting to Atlanta & not winning the Winston Cup after all of that was a true tragedy, the most tragic ending to a Cup season that I've ever seen...

Now they cry if the get bumped

@jamesshiffer6265 5 лет назад

If you ever question why NASCAR is dead just look at how down home and relatable the drivers were. These drivers raced for the love of racing. Not to get rich from this deal or that. Not for some funky points scheme to try and make it like other sports. But strictly for the love of it. If you put today's drivers in a field with all the greats of the past all in their prime today's drivers wouldn't even finish on the lead lap. Sure many of them have the talent but far to few have the heart and the drive as the previous generations.

Alan kulwicki 1986 rookie of the year,1992 Winston cup champion and 2019 NASCAR Hall of Fame and Davey Allison 1987 rookie of the year,1992 Daytona 500 champion and 2019 NASCAR Hall of Fame. Both brightest stars gone to soon rest in peace Alan and Davey.

@stevemason5173 2 месяца назад

I don't think there is a movie or rock star that shocked the people more than the loss of Davy and Alan in 1993. WOW, what a devestating year for NASCAR and all the fans. There was a time my sons and I knew all the drivers and their sponsors, but today I don't know anyone who would waste their time watching a NASCAR race. All the greats have passed on or retired. There will never be drivers like Davey, Alan, Dale, Dale Jr. Rusty. Bill, Mark, Richard, Kyle, and all the others who carried us through the 80s and 90s with such excitement and thrills. These guys were racing for the love of it. Not like these cry baby jokers who drive fast and turn left of today.

@JonBoltinghouse 5 лет назад

July 12, 1992 I lost my idol and the world lost a free spirit. I remember all the crashes and broken bones, the black eyes, and the determination in his eyes during press interviews. Davey was a superhero to boys, a reason for men to keep doing mechanics themselves and a great family man. It's so sad to see him go, but I know he will live on in our memories and will never be forgotten. See you on the other side my friend.....R I P

There is no doubt that he was poised to be a great driver. but at the same time mentioning how good he would have been takes away the fact that the helicopter crash happened.

@iankhan4614 4 года назад

Who knows how good Davey would have been. He almost won a championship before losing his life. What he achieved is a matter of record and what was the come if he did not pass away

@melvinhunt6976 5 лет назад

I was there . Davey was riding in 5th place . Elliott and kulwicke were trading the lead. It was close for the championship but Davey had to finish in 8th or better?? . Then Ernie Irvan wrecked on the front stretch right in front of me. Allison got caught up and his championship hopes gone. He ,fred lorenzen ,Bill Elliott, Carl Edwards were My favorite drivers. We went to Talladega for a lROC event. He and Earnhardt put on a Show. Davey Won.

@MrMiD.Life.Crisis 2 года назад

God bless ya Davey, Cliff as well. I remember Bobby saying - "Clifford spent his life playing and died working, Davey spent his life working and died playing". To think that a father had to bury one son is tough. That he had to bury two is more than devastating. I feel lucky I got to watch Davey, and while he never fulfilled his potential - mainly because he had more potential than almost anyone that's driven in Nascar. Most drivers would be happy to have a career like his, he was spectacular on his day and he did it with a smile on his face, regardless of the pain he was in. An inspiration to all of us. I'm sad that I never got to see what Cliff could become.

Davey was and to this day is the toughest driver to ever get behind the wheel. It's a shame he was taken from us in 93 he could of easily won multiple championships and at least 50 wins.

@JJA1987 3 года назад

I always had this thought that the #28 was cursed or something from that year in 92 all way up until they stopped running it - Davey's wild season in 92, Then losing his life in The Helicopter and Ernie takes over then Ernie has his accident at Michigan while in contention to win a possible Cup Title in 94

@FlashoftheBlades 6 месяцев назад

1994 was a brutal year for motorsports on a global scale. NASCAR lost Neil Bonnet and Rodney Orr in the run-up to that year’s Daytona 500. Formula 1 lost Roland Ratzenberger and Ayrton Senna at Imola, with Rubens Barrichello almost meeting the same fate that same weekend. Karl Wendlinger had a big crash at Monaco, ending his F1 career, although he did find success in GT racing afterwards. Then, of course, there was Ernie Irvin’s big crash at Michigan. And between what befell those who drove that #28 car, be it Davey’s helicopter crash, Ernie’s crash at MIS, and Kenny Irwin Jr’s New Hampshire crash (even though he wasn’t driving the #28 at the time), it seems as though that car was cursed in some way.

@robertsimpson772 3 года назад

The 90's was the last great decade of racing for NASCAR. They got away from their roots afterwards. The drivers were more talented back then because each track was unique. Now most of the tracks are cookie cutter mile and a half ovals. The 92 season was NASCAR'S best because of Davey Allison and Alan Kuwicki.
