"All NASCAR lore, no matter what it is, can be traced back to the 1992 Hooters 500."

The same can be said for every topic in Pop Culture and life throughout history
@@NASCARFAN93100Alexander the Great can be traced back to the 1992 Hooters 500? That’s pretty cool
How does the 1992 Hooters 500 affect Lebron's legacy?

I knew you were gonna say that 😂
All roads lead to Atlanta
I don't think I've seen a mini Nascar documentary/video essay ever cover the entire 1979 season, usually most people think or talk about that iconic 1979 Daytona 500 before they even think about the entire season, but this video definitely showed the rivalry between Petty and Waltrip. I can't wait to see how you cover the 1992 season!
Honestly the 1992 season is worth talking not only for minutes, but hours.
Yep
Dale Jr created a podcast series last year called "becoming Earnhardt" that covers the 79 season week by week
The 1992 Hooters 500 is the greatest sporting event humanity has ever witnessed.
Honestly.
It’s not just the fact that this was a Richard Petty-last second victory that made this race so incredible.
Dale Earnhardt’s very first race as a full time driver.
You tallentless tw@, if you know your histoty you would know that Richard Petty won 14 races after the 1979 DAYTONA 500 to bring his total to 200 victories *incidentally Dale Sr's first victory was th e 1979 srping Bristol race, and Richard Petty won at least 13-14 races after that.

It was neither of those though
I still can't get over it took me until 2023 to realize strip weathers in Cars was a play on weather stripping
Petty's 79 championship is really one of the greatest underdog championships in NASCAR history. The King of the sport who had seemingly fallen off, and wasn't even guaranteed to be able to race the start of the year, came back and stole the championship from the seemingly new face of the sport, with ruthless consistency at the 11th hour
My favorite thing about Petty was his reserved style, kept his equipment clean and laid low until when it mattered. One of my many reasons why he's my favorite.
I think one of the things that is most interesting is if you look at the two greatest drivers in the history of the sport - Petty and Earnhardt - you see how very different they were. Polar opposites in driving style, very different personalities. And yet, they respected each other. When Petty felt like Earnhardt had gone too far, he'd talk to him about it. And Earnhardt would listen to Petty when he might not listen to others.
And there were things they had in common, too. They were both the sons of great drivers who'd competed in NASCAR's wild-and-wooly earlier years, who understood well the sacrifices that came with trying to make a career of racing. They both had charisma - both gave great interviews and had extremely loyal fan followings - and a flair for showmanship. Both had incredible determination, and loyalty - both stuck with their teams (Petty with his family operation, Earnhardt with Childress) through times when they might have done better elsewhere. And they both *hated* to lose, and refused to give anything other than their best effort. And, of course, there was the talent. Both of them could do things with a racecar that would make your jaw drop. And both of them would quietly help out other drivers who were struggling to stay in the game, because both of them knew very well how hard making a living in racing could be.
So... very different men, and yet in some ways very alike. And both undisputed champions of the sport. I have the utmost respect for both of them.
Enter: The Polish Prince,
Mr. Alan Kulwicki.
Game changed.
NASCAR and Hotline Miami music is a guaranteed banger video
1992 can literally be a documentary series.
I think there are quite a few years you could make videos on:
Passing the Torch (Dale Earnhardt defeating Cale Yarborough in 1980 and ushering in a new era of drivers)
The Thunderous Rise of Tim Richmond (1986)
The Most Tragic Years in Nascar History (1993-1994, deaths of Alan Kulwicki, Davey Allison, Neil Bonnett, Rodney Orr, and the near death of Ernie Irvan)
The Greatest Battle Nobody Remembers (1984, a 4 way title fight)
Winston's End (The lack of exciting title battles from 1998-2003, barring 2002, that led to the Chase)
There's a lot of retrospectives I know you could do phenomenal work on.
I'm pretty sure the reason Winston left was because they weren't allowed to advertise their product in motorsports anymore
@@xavierjuno4572 I'm talking about the Winston Cup Points format, going from full season to a 10 Race sprint
The best Fridays is when Elly posts
The best Fridays are when Elly posts and there’s a truck race
These videos are educational, informative, entertaining, and ultimately flawless. I'm not even some massive NASCAR fan I just enjoyed a few of the PS2 games. If this channel doesn't become more popular I have no words to describe my disappointment. Keep it up.
Thank you for the kind words, they are much appreciated
I know it’s an overheard take, but man the Stock Cars back in the day with the chrome bumpers, polished wheels, bright lettered tires and sharp paint schemes… absolutely perfect. The Hawaiian Tropic car, the Grey Ghost, Dee Dubs Gatorade cars, King Richards Neon STP car.. not saying the modern cars aren’t memorable either though, there’s been some awesome designs.
Older cars are also cool because they actually look decently different, compared to today where they are pretty much the same looking outside of liveries.
I swear Elly, along with all the NASCAR RUclipsrs are making me love NASCAR all over again. The pure passion Elly along with all the NASCAR RUclipsrs have puts a smile on my face.
You NASCAR RUclipsrs are something else man. I never thought I’d become a huge fan of NASCAR but thanks to you and some other content creators, I can’t get enough of it.
I wish we were close to April so for 1992 you could just repost S1ap's trilogy of videos for that season on April Fool's Day. Joking aside I'm eager to see your take on that hectic year
But yeah Petty's bounceback with such a big points deficit only makes me want the standard points system more. One early wreck or engine error and 2nd-4th can be back in it for the points lead
Love you vids man. You make the type of videos both hardcore fans and complete outsiders can watch and get invested in. Thats a rare thing in my opinion.
I've been showing my dad most of your videos since we've been bonding over nascar. This is another banger for sure.
That's an awesome mini documentary on 1979 season you made Elly. The storylines of that season are on full display. What I noticed here is the storylines you get early in the season mattered later on. Says something about season long points. If I'm not mistakened, this was the first time in the Bob Latford system, the championship was decided in the season finale race. I can't wait for the 1992 season.
12:56 cool tidbit about this race, and one of my favorite pieces of NASCAR knowledge, J.D. McDuffie nearly pulled off one of the biggest upsets in NASCAR history that day, leading 4 separate times for 111 laps total. He even spun with Yarborough battling for second just after the 50th lap.
Unfortunately, J.D. had to pit one extra time for fresh tires late in the race. According to Greg Fielden’s “40 years of Stock Car Racing” book, McDuffie was quoted saying “We had to change ‘em. I asked my crew if we could go all the way and they said no. If we’d have caught a caution, we’d have been in good shape.”
So glad this series got revived
These videos keep getting better and better
1992 here we come baby
Return of the king
Please PLEASE do a video like this for every season of NASCAR (Modern Era 1972-) I promise you’d have like 10 million subs. 😂
Worth the wait, Elly. LOVE the piggies!😂🏁🐽
ive never watched or really understood nascar but i watch your vids religiously, thanks for the content
2:01 i was at that race, i was laighing so hard when he ran out of fuel
Awesome video. As a fellow RUclipsr and I can see and understand the amount of effort a video like this takes. Cannot WAIT for your 1992 video!
This, this is why i follow elly. I can find facts. But they all swing towards that number 43.
The many storylines along the way is what you find if you dig deeper. And that's exactly what Elly does. Keep it up.
Frigging awesome man.... I like the cliffhanger/set up for the next in the series..... I'm in!!!
Loved it! I subbed 👍Can't wait for the next one!
insane quality, appreciate you
Dude I love those late 70's cars.
I'm European, but luckily the tv-provider we are subscribed to has a bunch of sport specific channels, one being a channel solely for motorsports (Ziggo Sport Racing) where they broadcast NASCAR (Cup and Xfinity) and Indy Cars, a lot of times the races are run really late, when I'm already half way to my alarm clock, but sometimes I'll catch a race and I'll watch it till the end. NASCAR has this charm that other racing classes don't have. Compared to other 4-wheeled motorsports, NASCAR is the most down-to-Earth class you can find.
Love these videos!
Fantastic Video! One of my favorite seasons in the sport's history. I've Been making some videos on certain races of this season and it's wild seeing how Darrell Waltrip blew the title. Really enjoy your videos man👏
Another banger from Elly. Homie out here killing it.
Your content is so good man. Simply amazing.
As an extremely casual nascar fan, I just found your channel yesterday and every video I’ve watched is so well made it just hooks me. Great stuff man.
Also, the risk of rain music caught me really off guard but I seriously love it. My favorite game.
Phenomenal as always. It is criminal that this channel doesn't have more subscribers.
I LOVE the teaser at the end.. amazing video as always
The most surprising thing I learned in this video: You could change engines and get back in the race 🤯
Just a quick note RE: David Pearson and the Wood Brothers partnership; Pearson after winning his third NASCAR championship opted to fun strictly a part time schedule, running mostly larger speedway events. He wanted to win one championship for each of his three sons, and afterward he ran basically when he wanted to. His winning percentage running the reduced schedule was ridiculously good; he wasn’t winning championships, but he wasn’t trying to.
Some of the best production Ive seen on any of these NASCAR history videos on YT
Very happy your videos took off my dude, miss league raving with ya tho.
the editing and music choice is so good
I don’t know shit about nascar i just love this guy’s presentation style but 11 minutes for an engine swap is absolutely wild good work man keep it up
The quality of your videos are top tier
Always a good say when Elly posts
Great vid ! Surely you jest @22:26 it sounded like you meant 1992 was "The single greatest seasons in the sport's history "? That made me laugh. I've seen the past 50 or so (NASCAR seasons) both at the track & on TV and i feel confident that anyone who's memories go back that far would tell you of at least 1 NASCAR season greater than 1992.
Yo this is one of the coolest thumbnails ever lol Do you have a website or social media accounts or anything where you post the actual pictures you use for your thumbnails? I'd love to see an actual album or collection of these if possible. I'd definitely set this as my wallpaper on my laptop if possible lol Great video and topic too btw!
Great video.
Shoutout to Bill Kurtis, aka Anchorman movie narrator at 4:40
Another elly productions masterclass
That Hotline Miami 2 track at the beginning of the video fits pretty well!
The Nielsen joke was pretty good I subscribed
Holy shit that fade to 1992 at the end with the video game music made my hair stand on end. Super pumped, can't wait for it!
ALWAYS THE BEST DAY WHEN ELLY UPLOADS AGAIN
The reason why David Pearson didn't win a championship with the Wood Brothers is because they never ran a full season together. The Wood Brothers and David only ran the races that had good payouts, which meant they usually skipped the short tracks.
True fact. And I do believe when Person took over for Earnhardt after his injury, his win at Bristol was his first time back at Bristol since the 1974 season.
@chasefollett4107 you are exactly right. Dale Jr. discussed that on his Becoming Earnhardt series.
If NASCAR had kept the point system they used in 1949, Pearson would have won the '73 and '76 championships while skipping 8-10 races.
@@seannolan9857 the early version of NASCARS fast pass to the playoffs 😂
keep up the great work o7
I like the Mario Kart 64 music...what's the track towards the end from? Is it Yooka-Laylee?
ok i had goosebumps when I heard you use Hotline Miami soundtrack for this lol nice
Better quality than real nascar broadcasts and teaches better than any school, common Elly W
Cool character OC 🎉
I don't know what to say other than that was beautiful to watch. Idk if u have other years in mind but if you continue can I suggest 2004 2010 2011 2014 and 2016? All really fantastic years in terms of the winners records and championship fights

16:26 LETS GOOOOO SUNS REFERENCE
16:29 man
I’m a suns fan but I lost it when I saw that Chris Paul clip 😂😢
15:00 after helping Dale to the ambulance, the track worker slams the door on Earnhardt, appears to be yelling something,
What did he say? Maybe this is the same story we heard on Dirty Mo about when he crashed his rookie season, the Earnhardts drive up to the hospital to see him and he already checked out? Maybe there's some bit of the story about that. Somewhere.
(Also, lets just stir up the haters about certain events pertaining to track workers in recent years, why dont we 🙃)
