Can you believe Dale “The Intimidator” Earnhardt raced for decades with a piece of metal in his head? Just a month before his tragic Daytona 500 crash in 2001, he finally had surgery to remove shrapnel from a 1976 garage accident. Stories like this remind us why Ironhead was a legend—tough as nails and old-school to the core. NASCAR just isn’t the same without guys like him. Thoughts? #Sports #Racing #DaleEarnhardt
