I remember watching this race! I distinctively remember Dale Jarrett running out of gas and the pit crew running and having to push him down pit road as well as the sleuth of cautions in the last 10 laps and Jeff Gordon winning under caution! It would have been a much more interesting race had Jeff Burton and Dale Jarrett not had problems, they might have been able to steal a win from Grodon had they been able to stay in the lead lap the whole race!
@@DobyDuke he was blowing away the competition that day before running out of fuel, but he finished on the lead lap after being down 4 laps, the next year he won the race though.
What was, for Dale Jarrett, a pedestrian 16th place finish may, nevertheless, be one of the 88 team's greatest runs. from 4 laps down on lap 90 to 16th on the lead lap at the end.
@@tomdalfonzo9959 Just finished watching that race. What a phenomenal car and what a superior driver. Unlike Earnhardt, Stewart, Gordon, and others (the bashin' Bodines and Busches come immediately to mind), Jarrett almost always raced clean. He almost never pushed anyone out of the way to win and I never saw him intentionally wreck anyone to advance his position. The only drivers I can think of that raced as clean and won more races wand/or championships were Terry Labonte and Bill Elliott, (okay Mark Martin won more and he was always a pretty courteous driver but he could never quite pull off a championship).
Dale Jarrett running out of gas and stopping on pit road would never happen today. They would have thrown a caution as soon as he started slowing down because they can't embarrass a title contender like that. But see how much more entertaining it was and how we still talk about it today? Let the teams compete and if they run out of gas, so be it.
I remember a few of my friends who i got them into Nascar in the early to mid 2000’s make fun of me because i was a Kyle Petty fan but when we went to Michigan Super Speedway in around 2002-03 & Kyle was racing his black #45 Sprint sponsored car in tribute to his son Kyle & Kyle’s racing career plummeted after the 90’s finished pretty much but as i told my friends that Kyle was pretty good in the 90’s winning 8 races in which are not easy to win especially back them. Kyle had some cool cars such as the “Silver Bullet” Grand Prix - Mello Yellow Grand Prix & his awesome looking “Hot Wheels” Grand Prix 🏁
To be a race car driver you have to have balls of steel. You're expected to get hit by someone going 180 mph while you're at a dead stop and have no problem getting back in the car.
This was the last Cup race attempted by Precision Products Racing. Richard Jackson withdrew his car before qualifying began due to a fallout w/ their WCW sponsorship. Jackson would then focus on the Busch Series for the rest of the season
There were two things you tuned into every week in the mid to late 90s. NASCAR and professional wrestling. Funny to think that both of them hit their highs in the 90s, both have gone down hill ever since, and both are physically demanding jobs that aren't seen as such because of being in a car going in ovals for NASCAR and pro wrestling's pre-determined nature, completely ignoring reality. 58:46 Commercial really didn't age well. XD "2 dollars, I ain't going that far" Especially not today. That gets you about...15 miles if you're lucky lol Also gotta love how the Pepsi ad subtly tells you it's ok to try and grab a object moving around in your car while you're going at a high rate of speed while also not looking at the road.
I was just wondering when Jarret run out of gas why did his crew chief did no attempt to contact his team mate to push him to the pit to prevent losing a lap?
Lmao why did Nascar wait for the 88 crew to finish running all the way down pit road to throw a caution for something that was there before the 88 ever stopped 😂😂😂
Because Ward Burton had come to a stop out on the racetrack. Back then NASCAR did not consider problems on pit road to be caution-worthy, as the car was considered "off the racing surface" and the crews were available to pit the car.
I'm a diehard Gordon fan, but is it just me? Or was that "oil" on the windshield supposed to be from Dale Jarret so they would black flag him.. that 88 was super fast!
For a short period of time this race was bigger than the IRL era Indy 500s. I could feel as well watching this.

Dale Jarrett’s car was unbelievable this race.
Did he win?

happy birthday jesus iord love you too
Look at that enormous crowd, and now in 2019 barely anyone shows up. How pathetically sad that is to see
This is NASCAR in it's prime. Way different culture now. Sad indeed. I miss the IROC series too
Yes, NASCAR was indeed great at one point, the 90s were absolutely a sweet spot for sports it was an absolute money maker.
I was part of that crowd. My first live NASCAR race. If you look close, you can see me in the turn 1 infield stand.
1:53:58 Trivia quiz answer is wrong. Earnhardt won in '95 and Jarrett in '96, not the other way around.
What was, for Dale Jarrett, a pedestrian 16th place finish may, nevertheless, be one of the 88 team's greatest runs. from 4 laps down on lap 90 to 16th on the lead lap at the end.
The following year, Jarrett would kiss the bricks for the second time.

@@caelroighblunt1956 Jeff Gordon was not a dirty driver, I only ever saw him move Rusty who dumped him at Richmond
@@tomdalfonzo9959 1999 was also his championship winning year
With no lucky dog rule either

300K at a NASCAR race. Times change. Yea, NASCAR really has gone down hill and also society itself changed.
NASCAR's popularity wasn't going to last. It was a fad in the 90s and 2000s
Welcome to today and tomorrow. Enjoy.
I like how you included the first few laps of the IROC race.
Thanks for keeping the commercials
I so wish Terry Labonte had taken the #5 chevy to victory lane 1 time in this race. he deserved 1 brickyard 400 win/victory!
This was the last Cup race attempted by Precision Products Racing. Richard Jackson withdrew his car before qualifying began due to a fallout w/ their WCW sponsorship. Jackson would then focus on the Busch Series for the rest of the season
if the 88 had not run out of gas I think the 24 would have had a serious problem/issue holding him off for the win!
Hey! There debris that we actually see! 😱
Great race. Thank you for the share man! Lots of great stuff on your channel.

89 cents per spark plug??? Times were definitely different

Unusual delta force intro, one without Paul Page
Todd Schoolcraft yeah, I’m glad they use the music but it’s not quite the same.
Stephen Huntsucker It may not be the same, but it’s unique none the less
rip Kenny irwin
I was just wondering when Jarret run out of gas why did his crew chief did no attempt to contact his team mate to push him to the pit to prevent losing a lap?
Because Kenny Irwin was running his own race & had a top 5 car himself. Probably didn't want to mess it up for him
do you have any indy 500s from 1979-2017?
Hearing Delta Force over Nascar feels wrong but also right

Always amazing to me that commentators know pit windows for fuel but drivers, crew chiefs can't figure out the pit window.🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️
