[@markwitkowski6418]

Delma Cowart was a true racer ,his heart was in it strong.God Bless those who try so hard

[@hillbillyslim]

Delma was a special man. "He may never have won a race, but he never lost a party"
R.I.P Mr. Cowart.

You can have all of the money in the world and no talent and make it in NASCAR but if you have all of the talent in the world and no money you won't make it in NASCAR.

[@ZWeinstein15]

I'm sure there is a hell of a party roaring on tonight at that big racetrack in the sky. RIP to a colorful fella.

[@tose917]

That’s a real racer right there!!!

[@lgsocom]

Patton said “I’ll be back and I’ll be stronger” like Col. Sanders said “I’m too drunk to taste this chicken”.

[@DumpedClutch]

“If you need it and I dont have it then you dont need it.” HAHAHAHA

[@ricksanchezsflask8794]

This is what would happen if I built a nascar in my backyard

[@antoniestrada1972]

He came 4 the party and stayed 4 the party

Put that dude on Fox as announcer. He would be better than the crew they have now.

[@supadoopa926]

Race in peace, Delma. Gonna be one hell of a party at the superspeedway in the sky.

[@ZWeinstein15]

Never won a race, but never lost a party as well.

[@tsr6]

best comment here.

[@TheMW2informer]

Now someone stole your comment for their own video

[@thekingmansplainer6813]

@@TheMW2informer you say that MW2 but that's a quote from the man himself,because who else would come up with a such a phrase? lol

[@TheMW2informer]

The King Mansplainer where does Delma say that?

[@thekingmansplainer6813]

@@TheMW2informer His retirement speech.

[@backporchdriver3763]

I remember when he made the field for the 1992 Daytona 500. He told a reporter that if they can make a woman into a man, then anything is possible.

[@ricksanchezsflask8794]

He'd probably get cancelled for saying something like that these days.

[@andyhughes9763]

I came across Mr.Delma back in the day, running at Oglethorpe Speedway in Pooler Georgia right outside Savannah. He was always a good dude good ol fella enjoy the time around him. Old Dalma would race with a shopping cart if you wanted.

[@nascarblake48fanyt40]

My dad used to race there and fun fact I’m related to him

[@brandonwalker1355]

RIP Delma.
Never won a race, never lost a party.

[@evanwilliams6406]

Rest in peace, Delma Cowart. He always tried his hardest and gave it his all in a sport he truly loved. Long live the Master's Inn Ford and the man that drove it. The man loved to race and he liked to party too. God speed.

[@PaperBanjo64]

Never won a race but never lost a party...he said he ran number 0 because he had 0 chance of winning.

[@NascarNick2488]

God speed Delma 😔😔🏁🏁

[@Formerlywarmer]

Met him many times and he was always in the middle of fun no doubt

[@The-Duvall-Family]

I like that guy.

[@reginaldhall6871]

Nothing fit the template but I'd bet anything he bought another teams old car that happened to pass inspection for earlier races

[@IanTheMotorsportsMan_YT]

Rest in Peace, Delma…

[@jsmith282]

Rest in peace Delma 😔

[@SHarrell42069]

Race in paradise, Delma! We will keep the party going down here 😔🤟🏻

[@canadiancatgreen]

Any races he did well with the green and white car

[@NVRAMboi]

Hope he didn't have any peanut shells on the floorboard.......

[@canadiancatgreen]

@@NVRAMboi I never asked about peanuts?

[@NVRAMboi]

@@canadiancatgreen Years ago a friend told me that peanut shells in the race car (like green cars) were supposed to be a bad omen.
Probably just myth.

[@canadiancatgreen]

@@NVRAMboi oh ok thx
