    Kurt is proof you can become a better person if you really want to. I didn't like him when he showed up and started talking crap about wanting to fight people but never backed it up with action. Now he is someone who makes those around him better and any team would be lucky to have him on their side and teaching their young drivers how to handle themselves in this tough sport.

    Kurt is one of the last great racers left!! I have only cried about sports twice, when Rusty had his last race and when Kurt decided to retire!! Rusty was always my main man and when he retired I gravitated to Kurt!! NASCAR is officially going down hill now. Kenny you are the best and God bless Jughead!!!!!

    Kurt is living proof that your past doesn't have to impact your future. He is very likeable and I really enjoy him in the booth. He helped set the 45 and 23 team for Tyler and Bubba. He is a blast to listen to.

    Thank you Kurt and Kenny, the “Long” explanation of leading up to the final call to get out of the car really makes sense. So much of it feels like a “Secret”… but in reality it factors in SO much and it takes time. Great explanation!

  • @nevadadan4113
    @nevadadan4113 9 месяцев назад +1

    You mentioned Skinner in this interview... he's from my hometown of Susanville, Calif. Back when he was racing, their souvenir truck stopped off in Susanville prior to the Sonoma race. A few weeks earlier, Skinner and Earnhardt Sr were involved in a crash. I walked up to Skinner in the souvenir truck and asked him this. "How bad do you feel about wrecking Earnhardt a few weeks ago?" He looked at me and said, "do you want the politically correct answer or my personal answer?" I knew exactly what he meant... he never answered the question. We started laughing, shook hands and off I went. Not sure whether SR disliked Skinner for any specific reason, but my opinion is that SR didn't play well with others and essentially didn't want a teammate. What's your opinion, Kenny?

  • @Bluesky5553
    @Bluesky5553 11 месяцев назад +1

    I liked Kurt for a long time and hated him having to retire. He made every car and every team he drove for better. When he started driving for Stewart/Haas everyone was running his chassis setups because SHR was having issues. Harvick credited the organizations success from that point to Kurt. One of the best ever.

    Kurt really turned his life around early on in his cup career. A lot like Tony.
    Very respectable & from the time he raced for SHR & after, I grew to enjoy watching him & rooting for him. I'm glad that after that nasty wreck, he can still work in the sport he's known all his life. & Help to improve it!

    After Junior retired and I was looking for another driver to root for it was Kurt Busch I mean just think about the evolution of him from beginning to basically the end and how cool his growth was as the same thing with Kyle in a way but there's something about it since I'm 51 right now you know you want to root for a driver close to our age and you know that's why I enjoy watching Penny drive you know the jet with the jags it's gives you hope but what a good interview between to me old school fun NASCAR guys that competed enjoy guys you guys rock thanks Kenny for everything AKA the herminator

    Yeah I agree that Kurt deserves to be a first round vote ❎ in cause he was a true winner 🥇 over the span of his career , and as Kenny pointed out Kurt was one 1⃣ of those drivers , who could run the top of most tracks , much like the Earnhardts ( Sr , and J r , and only a few others) and if he doesn't make it into the Hall on the first ballot , I won't understand why 😊😅😮😢😂❤😂😊😂😊❤😊❤😊❤😊❤

    Kenny, as always, get some gal darn softs on the set. Anything to absorb the echo. I can hear the walls slapping back everything you say. A "dead" room is a professional sound stage.

  • @kenmartin1919

    Some people can’t hide. Kurt hurt himself when driving for his Crown Royal sponsor and acting an ass In Phoenix during race week with the cops.
    I’m retired LE & I like my Crown Royal.
    Slowly, very slowly, through the years he became a gentleman.
    This is different & difficult these days. Drivers have to bring sponsors or be exceptional (Kyle Larsen).
    If you can’t bring sponsors or speak to the media “do we” really have the best drivers racing in NASCAR?
    I understand everything is business, and i don’t like stuck up drivers.
    Solution, Make NASCAR find all Sponsors.
