Best Answer

Dale Sr. was and always wanted to be a race car driver. At the time of his death he was still very competitive. If Dale Sr. eventually reached retirement, he probably would have spent most of his time with his racing team (DEI) and paving the way for his son, Dale Jr. to try to follow in his footsteps. Things would have been a little different for Dale Jr. if his father was still here.

What were the last words that Dale Earnhardt Sr. said to Dale Earnhardt Jr.?

It was "I didn't mean to wreck him I was just rattling his cage." This saying began back in 1996 I think I'm not sure but he said that back in that year (if it was 1996) he had wrecked Terry Labonte and sent him into the wall and that's when he said it. He said it in an interview. Every since that happened it just began as Dale Earnhardt's saying. It actually has the video on youtube.com where Dale Sr. says it and it also shows the wreck too.
