and in a weird way predicted the fact that Jimmie Johnson was never gonna flip in his NASCAR racing career... so they had to find a way to at least make him have one "flip" in his career, even if it came in this video game lol
Fun Fact: An early version of the intro was uploaded to RUclips a couple of years ago in which it depicts the Penske cars instead of HMS. It is most likely the case that Ryan Newman and Rusty Wallace were going to be on the main cover before EA decided to switch it up with Jimmie Johnson and Jeff Gordon. They, most likely, kept the intro the same for reuse but reskinned the #12 and #2 cars with the #48 and #24 Here is a link to that early intro: ruclips.net/video/cxs-d-QYYWM/видео.html
Even crazier is that I believe HMS is only four wins away from 300. Insane I also feel a little bad for JGR, as their historic 200th victory was completely overshadowed by the Hail Melon last season
Mostly because being competitive in F1 is so freakin' expensive. Haas is willing to spend enough money to really compete in NASCAR, but he's not willing (or possibly able) to spend enough money to really compete in F1.
One of my favorite things to do in Nascar 06 was to pick Hendrick and to try and get all cars top 5 and I’d do that for 4 cars and then Brian Vickers would be all the way down in 27th or something like that
Great video with excellent research. I love the color film from the 50's and 60's. Just want to add that Carl Kiekhafer was the founder of Mercury Marine and earned over 200 patents. He used his business fortune and engineering expertise to dominate NASCAR then abruptly quit. He'd be a good topic for a video all by himself.
0:52 i know the audience for this video is primarily north american, but the only thing i know from these logos is that the yellow & purple one is from the Lakers
I was listening to the PRN broadcast in my apartment when Kyle Larson made history in 2021. I still remember the call by Doug Rice: " it's a historic night for Kyle Larson as he wins the Coca-Cola 600! It is also history-making tonight for Hendrick Motorsports as they become the all-time winningest organization, as they collect win number 269, and it comes with Kyle Larson at the helm!" Now, Hendrix sits at an unprecedented and almost untouchable 301 victories. How many do you think they'll get in their 40th anniversary in 2024?
NASCAR 06 yes!! One of the first NASCAR games I ever played, had so much fun making cars blowover at Charlotte and doing those Kenny Wallace Dodge Challenges too!
@@EllyProductions49well you know I loved playing NASCAR 06 TTC and I still enjoy playing it I owned dei in my career mode I'm the the munber 28 Sunoco Chevy for dale Earnhardt Inc.😊
While I'm probably one of the few Elliott fans to say this, Elliott is consistent, and a great driver, but anyone logical can see Larson has been kicking ass since coming to Hendrick. Shoot, the stuff he did when he was with Ganassi? Amazing what he did in the 42 car. Elliott has been really consistent in 2024 I will say that, but, he does need a bit more speed to compete if he's going into the playoffs.
@@jonathonpoloski917yeah same here but I think Chase will do pretty good in 2025 and he completely tried to do a Matt kensith in 2024 and failed unfortunately or maybe because of the playoffs we have now.
HMS currently are untouched, even Nascar tries with penalties. Sometimes we can see the surprises from other teams… and one Melon guy who once smashed the wall to become the legend. 😏
Yes I agree and I am also a Chase Elliot fan also. But I honestly want William Byron to win the championship this year and that would make 3 different HMS drivers to win the championship in the last 4 years. And that’s pure domination and plus William Byron only had 3 wins the whole time he has been with HMS tell 2023 we’re he has 6 wins so far. He is beyond on a mission to pull it off but it’s going to be hard excluding Larson is also in the final 4 in the playoffs for the championship. But if he can’t pull it off and Larson wins it still will be another championship for HMS can’t complain about that. GO HMS
Carl Kiekhaefer's team was aided by the fact that there were 45 races in 1955 and the schedule was expanded to 56 the following year while these days, the schedule is capped at 36
This new car is especially fascinating given the improvement of some mediocre or godawful teams and while it may help Roush and RCR return to the promised land, it may also cause wins to be divided among more teams too In what timeline do we exist where JTG may qualify for the playoffs on points and not even need that win, friggin' surreal
These videos are amazing! Discovered your channel recently and the quality of your videos is incredible. In no time I bet you’ll be drowning in new subscribers like me.
Fun fact nascar 06 was originally supposed to be called nascar 06 chase for the cup but was changed. There’s an early trailer floating around on here showing the old branding.
SHR’s run will be coming to an end. It’s really weird that it has come to this. This is like if the New England Patriots folded after a couple bad years when Brady left, Pittsburgh Penguins going bankrupt after having a good year… oh wait that’s happened to them multiple times, New York Yankees relocating because they’re stuck in a funk, or for a more relevant to motorsports example, Red Bull shutting down their Formula 1 teams to restart their NASCAR team with SVG and maybe bring Max with them if he really wanted to but I doubt it (however, Montoya jumped to NASCAR wanting a new challenge so 🤷🏻♂️)
Slight nitpick, but here (16:08) you say Johnson won 10 races in '08, when he actually won 10 races in '07 and 7 in '08. Not a big deal, just thought I should mention it.
16:23 It is now canon that me and Elly have been to a race together.
No way! I was there for that Charlotte race too lol
An Elly and S1ap on Location when?
We need a elly and slap collab
@@TheMullet43we got it
@ and it was everything i expected
Gotta love how the beginning cut scene just completely re-enacted Ryan Newman’s 03 wreck
and in a weird way predicted the fact that Jimmie Johnson was never gonna flip in his NASCAR racing career... so they had to find a way to at least make him have one "flip" in his career, even if it came in this video game lol
@@lucasesquivel2525watch him flip randomly in his part time schedule
I hear that a lot and its so true lmao
Nah man wasn't that jimmie Johnson? (That's a joke)

Now they have lmao

Hendrick's record might be unbeatable unless there is a team who can basically dominate the sport for 20+ years
Not me thinking you were legit gonna talk about the game at the start
Great video none the less!
8:41 THAT MATCH CUT WAS EPIC!!!
This was the best nascar game STRICTLY for the Joe Satriani soundtrack used at the main menu. It's so unbelievably good.
An completely underrated score!
Haas in NASCAR vs Haas in F1 is a night and day difference.
Mostly because being competitive in F1 is so freakin' expensive. Haas is willing to spend enough money to really compete in NASCAR, but he's not willing (or possibly able) to spend enough money to really compete in F1.
I got excited about a video on Nascar 06, then sad it wasn't, then forgot about it.
One of my favorite things to do in Nascar 06 was to pick Hendrick and to try and get all cars top 5 and I’d do that for 4 cars and then Brian Vickers would be all the way down in 27th or something like that
Always amazed by your documentary style videos, keep em comin!

Well they almost got it if it wasn't for Joey logano being a 3 time champion.
I stumbled across your content by accident. THIS IS INCREDIBLE! Great work!
NASCAR 06 yes!! One of the first NASCAR games I ever played, had so much fun making cars blowover at Charlotte and doing those Kenny Wallace Dodge Challenges too!
Man hearing all the songs from NASCAR 06 TTC brought many memories back of spending hours upon hours in front of the TV playing that game!
I know there a footnote now but furniture row was an incredible tragedy. (Story)
Calling Larson the flagship driver instead of Elliott made my day. Lol.
The 5 is the flagship car at Hendrick.

That thumbnail is golden
1:13 Am I the only one who noticed he forgot Truex won his championship with Front Row and not with Joe Gibbs?
They had JGR support, so it was kind of like having a fifth JGR car
*championship with Furniture Row (Front Row is a Ford team, not Toyota)
Amazing work in the script and editing here. Keep it up! You're a leader in quality in your niche here on RUclips :D
Love these Nascar videos. Been a long time F1 fan, but yout videos have introduced this to me.
The Chase fanboys are gonna be mad you called Larson Hendricks flagship driver. But its true.
Yes I agree and I am also a Chase Elliot fan also. But I honestly want William Byron to win the championship this year and that would make 3 different HMS drivers to win the championship in the last 4 years.

I totally forgot Tony Stewart was still with Gibbs the year they went to Toyota
You know it is a good day when Elly uploads
8:58 oof
Love 06 TTC, carrer mode and the physics im having so much fun with it atm
Anyway to get the game nowadays on pc
@@KevinHarvickisnothappy4 Well, technically yes
Do not buy junior motorsports, it will crash your save
This is the 3rd or 4th video I've seen from you, and they've all been great.
+1 subscriber.
Another quality video that's an actual video essay and not just a racing reference excerpt. Great work buddy. Glad I subbed.
Already know this video is about to slap and I haven’t even finished.
Great documentary
And Please do a NASCAR Timeline Series to celebrate NASCAR's 75th Anniversary
This new car is especially fascinating given the improvement of some mediocre or godawful teams and while it may help Roush and RCR return to the promised land, it may also cause wins to be divided among more teams too
In what timeline do we exist where JTG may qualify for the playoffs on points and not even need that win, friggin' surreal
The most underrated Nascar RUclipsr!
Teamwork makes the dreamwork!
Exactly
These videos are amazing! Discovered your channel recently and the quality of your videos is incredible. In no time I bet you’ll be drowning in new subscribers like me.
Incredible video man. Awesome job.
13:09 all the SHR cars numbers add up to 69
Nice
@@RACINGUS95same
9:41 the washington comredskers
Hendrick Motorsports also ran at 24 Hours of Le Mans
That tells you how advanced they are in technology
It’s not unthinkable they could run a full time team in Indy or wec
Another amazing video teams are very important to nascar and my favorite team moments has to be the 2001 pepsi 400
Fun fact nascar 06 was originally supposed to be called nascar 06 chase for the cup but was changed. There’s an early trailer floating around on here showing the old branding.
Great video man! i’m new to your channel but this was very enjoyable.
TTC is still my favorite NASCAR game
Once again fantastic content, keep it up dude 🙏

I loved playing NASCAR 06 and still so even today along with NASCAR thunder 04 .😊
I miss this game badly!! Bring it back NASCAR
Interesting fact: Red Byron only won in NASCAR twice.
I get so happy when ep posts
great content as always!!
I honestly disagree. I doubt anybody is gonna surpass Hendrick in my lifetime.
One of my favourite racing games
Kiekhaefer also worked with mercury outboard engines for racing motors in the 50s
I actually didn't think his name was said that way. I thought it was (racial slur)-hay-fur
This is the best nascar game
Hopefully they clear the 300 mark this season. They have like 2-3 to go I think.
Washington Redskins
9:43 - Washington redskers did you say? I’m pretty sure you mean the Washington Redskins. Don’t be scared to say the team name of the time.
Gas video
Slight nitpick, but here (16:08) you say Johnson won 10 races in '08, when he actually won 10 races in '07 and 7 in '08. Not a big deal, just thought I should mention it.
poor Stewart
ELLYPRODUCTIONS UPLOAD RAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Larson is definitely a decade defying driver but chase won a championship so he might as well be too. Along with Busch
What Music?
