    Darrell is the only voice for color I have ever known in this sport. He is very much a part of the reason why I grew to love this sport. The man is absolutely irreplaceable with his infectious energy and knowledge. I hope that it is heavily considered to put him in the Hall of Fame TWICE - as a driver, and as a broadcaster, because it is absolutely a deserving honor, whom very few may ever match. Congratulations on a fabulous career, and THANK YOU so much for all you have done.

      Pucknerd well said and agree 1000% on your comments. Not a huge NASCAR fan myself. However when Darrell was commenting on the race especially Daytona, I would watch. No doubt he is the John Madden of NASCAR/Auto Racing Commentators in America, maybe the best ever in his field. So of course he should be in the NASCAR HOF as an Broadcaster as well.

    • @americangiant1003
      @americangiant1003 5 лет назад

      @W Mills No offense but I doubt the top previous NASCAR analyst/color commentator on mainly CBS and ABC such as David Hobbs, Jackie Stewart (for old school Formula 1 race fans)and Ned Jarret got that much media attention when they retired or was replaced.

      I started watching DW in the late 80's when he drove for Rick H in the Tide Ride. While he did not win a championship in that car, it was usually in contention for the win. I always felt he raced people respectfully, similar to Mark Martin. He was my favorite. Then he started his own team with Western Auto (the coolest paint scheme out there) that had some early success, but quickly turned into a non competitive team. I hoped every Sunday would be a turn around, but it rarely happened. For several years he used the champions provisional to make the field, and usually could not stay on the lead lap. That was far more disappointing to me than his retirement from TV. When I realize its been 25 yrs since the Western Auto car raced, I feel a little sad and old

      A. Ellenburg no one is perfect. DW is part of why Hendrick is so embedded and successful. DW is a bigger part of this sport than I feel he ever got recognition for. He’s always been a goofy guy and I just think some people take him the wrong way. Sad to see him retire but I’m very happy that he has a good future to look towards.

Deserves as much respect as Jimmie Johsnon. Hes given his blood to this sport and the sport should be thankful which I think it is. Thank you Darrel will miss sharing my sundays with you and hearing your excited voice.

I hear stories from my grandpa about DW's encounters with Dale Earnhardt, Richard Petty and Cale Yarborough. Stories from my Mom and Dad about his last win and final years in a car. And the stories I will tell my kids about Darrell's unforgettable commentary skills. Darrell Waltrip 33 years racing and 19 years of broadcasting. A legendary career. Happy Retirement Darrell.

    I can't think of anyone I would miss more in NASCAR...JUST FUN TO LISTEN TOO. The love for racing comes thru the microphone.
    When you talked about June bug it was obvious that it went way back and was pure friendship.

    If there's one thing that brings me happiness out of 7 days of the week, it would without a doubt be Darrel Waltrip in the booth. Thankyou DW for everything and enjoy the rest of this season.

    Thank you, Darrell, for your years of service to NASCAR as a driver and a broadcaster. For... various reasons, I haven't watched NASCAR in quite some time, but when I did, I always looked forward to the races Fox covered. Enjoy retirement!

    Thanks for the ride DW......never forget sitting in turn four at the Charlotte Motor Speedway in 1989 and seeing your car spin right in front of me after trading paint with Rusty Wallace in The Winston. Never forget hearing you say " I hope he chokes on that $200,000" over the loud speaker. Always a fan but that day made me even more of a fan. Godspeed DW!!!

    Darrell, way to be the better person and go out on your own terms. Don't let the Jenna Fryer article in the AP get you down. After all that article was published on April 1st!! Enjoy retirement, and for those who truly enjoy the history of racing and nascar know that you will be missed!!

    Darrell was a great driver but more importantly he is a good man. Loved watching him race, enjoyed him as commentator. The old stories and anecdotes. Who ever comes behind him will have big shoes to fill. Happy Trails DW and thanks for the memories (Icky shuffle in Daytona victory lane, chrome car, and yeah, 3 Championships).

    Like Darrell, but he had to go. NASCAR had passed him by and Jeff Gordon had to correct him often and I think Darrell wants to spend some time with family. I feel like he raced a little bit too long until he wasn't competitive and I think he was in the booth too long but I think now that he knows that it is time to step away and be with his family. I could see him doing some other TV work as well. He'll never leave NASCAR and it won't leave him either.

    • @MJForever1999

      Darrel is more old school and Jeff actually drove the cars so that’s accurate... but I love and will miss his will to actually learn

    • @nigelio3
      @nigelio3 5 лет назад +1

      That's a good point. I've noticed that quite a bit. Darrell will say something and Jeff will have to come in and politely correct him, and Darrell will handle it like a pro. But you can't have that forever.
