Earnhardt's death was the catalyst for change that continues even now. Following his death, there was a police investigation, as well as a NASCAR-sanctioned investigation. Nearly every detail of the event was made public, from the finding of a torn seatbelt inside Earnhardt's car to graphic descriptions of the injuries the driver suffered at the moment of impact. There are rumors that he did not have his seat belt on properly. He liked to wear it loose so he could move around and not feel too constrained. The allegations of seatbelt failure led Bill Simpson to resign from the company bearing his name, which manufactured the seatbelts used in Earnhardt's car and nearly every other NASCAR competitor's machine.[4]

The idea for the Tribute came as a result of the outpouring of fans that came to Kannapolis the week after Earnhardt's death and attended the memorial service at Fieldcrest Cannon Stadium held by the City of Kannapolis. The community realized the unique connection Kannapolis has with the Earnhardt family and NASCAR racing. As a result, citizens asked Mayor Ray Moss to pursue the possibility of the City building a permanent memorial to Dale Earnhardt.

Earnhardt was a very polarizing figure in NASCAR. He was both loved and hated in the sport, yet despite his numerous detractors, Earnhardt remained one of the sport's most popular drivers. His death drew a considerable amount of reaction from the nation, NASCAR, and his fans.
