"I SPUN HIM OUT!" - Dale Earnhardt, Bristol/1999

Yahoo Sports already has a similar question going on but here's their question: "Is Dale Earnhardt's dumping of Terry Labonte for the win at Bristol not nearly as iconic to legions of NASCAR fans if Labonte had collected other cars as spectacularly as Keselowski did?"
