The 2001 Daytona 500 was supposed to be a celebration. Michael Waltrip's first win. Dale Earnhardt Jr. running second. A dynasty moment for Dale Earnhardt Incorporated.

From Bambi Matilda's chilling radio call ("things didn't look good") to Ken Schrader's reaction at the car that told the whole story before Mike Helton said a word — every detail of that day is pieced back together with raw honesty.
