Earnhardt was born in Kannapolis, North Carolina on April 29, 1951 to Martha Coleman and Ralph Earnhardt, who was then one of the best short-track drivers in North Carolina. Ralph won his one and only NASCAR Sportsman Championship in 1956. Although Ralph did not want his son to follow in his footsteps, Earnhardt would not be persuaded to give up his dream of racing, and even dropped out of high school to race. Ralph was a hard teacher for Earnhardt, and after Ralph died of a heart attack at his home in 1973, it took many years before Earnhardt felt as though he had finally "proven" himself to his father. When he was 17, he married his first wife, Latane Key, in 1968. Key gave birth to Earnhardt's first son, Kerry, in 1969. They were subsequently divorced in 1970. In 1971, Earnhardt married his second wife, Brenda Gee (the daughter of NASCAR car builder Robert Gee), who gave birth to a daughter, Kelley, in 1972, and a son, Dale Jr., in 1974. Not long after his second son was born Dale and Brenda divorced. Dale then married his last wife, Teresa.
Hello everyone, I am new here (May 7th, 2008) my name is Hugo Prado I am an automotive artist who publishes his own limited edition Giclees. I started The Bloomington Gold Silver Salute Print in 1990 and have painted and published all the Bloomington Gold Silver Salute prints since then. I am auctioning those and other prints signed and low numbered from my private collection. "The Last Corvette Dale Raced" is a painting of the C5R he raced 2 weeks before he passed. I started the painting before he raced that car and when he passed I dedicated the name to him. Dale Jr. also raced the car.
