i sure will Dale Sr. was still around...imagine DW and Sr. sitting around talking back in the day together...
2 Legends...
We would be talking about all the Championships DEI would have won by now too!
Love DW. He's a living legend. And he bridged the gap between 2 very different generations. I miss the old days of NASCAR with these wonderful personalities!
Thank you Stew, glad you enjoyed the interview
Well said
@@TheGarageShop200 I just discovered this garage shop and I think you guys are great keep it Comin I’m an old-school NASCAR fan way back when you can only see a few laps in during wide world of sports
@@edwardbaker8225 Glad you found us Edward, appreciate your kind words and watching our content.
Haven't watched anything NASCAR since Jr retired.This was my era & Sr & DW were the best.
I love listening to Darrell talking about his history. I was there when he ran his first race at Talladega in the #95 Terminal Transport Trucking Car. My dad drove for that company out of Atlanta. I can remember my Dad coming in from a run that Sunday morning telling me that Terminal Transport was sponsoring a car in that race. He told me about Stevie's Grand Dad, making that happen through Texas Gas. When Darrell pulled in the garage area, me and my best friend snuck in the garage to see him.
Darrell,I'm glad u came along when you did.70s 80s & 90s were the best.Dale Sr & DW!!!!!!!!
Thanks for watching and your comments
Id love to see DW, Ken Schrader, Kyle Petty and Dale Sr on the couch taking the piss out of each other today 🤣
Could you imagine? It would be epic
Waltrip and I are the same age. I’m from Evansville and followed his career all the way along. A great diver and a fun guy with a good mind and incredible to listen to.
Every sport has their historians and legendary characters and DW is the Nascar version
i love listening to ole DW 🤟🏻🤟🏻 got some damn good stories & always talking about something different 🤣 buddy has lived 3-4 times over 🤜🏻
What an excellent time with a man who has so many racing stories.
Yes, he did share some awesome gems with us
LOL ole DW needs no introduction. Gonna be a great interview. Thx for posting.
We had to give him a build up to get him comfy ;) Thanks for the note and watching.
I could listen to DW talk racing all day. I have all kinds of questions to ask him.especially his time at DEI. nice find.
Thanks for listening and watching
Waltrip is right. The golden years of NASCAR was 1980-2003 in my opinion. And Waltrip raced in the majority of years I mentioned.
Glad you enjoyed the interview
@@TheGarageShop200 I really did. Interviewer asked good questions and more importantly let the guest speak. There's such a balance between not engaging enough and doing too much. A lot of interviewers do too much especially, talk over the guests, switch topics too quickly, ect. This was natural and fun. Good job.
@@jesuschristislord6790 Thank you very much for your kind words, Tim Packman
You were definitely in the golden age. It was about talent now it’s nice hair and money.
I'll give DW that, he consistently had the best paint schemes out there! The Gatorade, Bud, Mt Dew and Tide ride were the sharpest on track!
You gotta admire the relationships he had with other drivers. Despite their job it’s nothing personal, just business. In the end they’re still friends.
Darrell lead the charge up the mountain to reach the highest peak of stock car racing popularity. This Waltrip era of NASCAR is long gone but will never be forgotten. Thanks for an excellent interview.................................
Yes, Darrel did take things a new level. Thank you very much for watching and your kind words
Darrell was one of the guys I've rooted for since the 1970' till he retired.
He has quite the following
80-90's was best eras
Big time DW fan here. Saw him at Performance Chevrolet in Durham, NC back in '88, the week before the Fall Martinsville race. Had his car there that went on to Victory Circle that weekend. I had a radio controled car with the 1988 Monte Carlo body made up to look just like his Tide Ride that he signed for me. I still have that car.
My question to Darrell would be, what was your best car that you drove in a race, whether you won or not in it?
we will pass it along
Old DW can remember things real good I like hearing those old stories.
I love what Aaron and the garage shop are doing to save nascar history.
We appreciate knowing you like it as well, Travis
That was fantastic! I love DW and miss seeing and listening to him.
Boogety,boogety, boogety,lets go racing!
I would love to stand beside you and say hello to all your fans.......great job Darl.....thank you..😍
No, thank you Delmas
You can see the mindset of a winner there towards the end of the interview. He didnt the miss the people in the garage, didnt even care if they were there. He was focused on the car, so he could win.
A lot of drivers have a combination of both, the car and the people. DW was there to win, and entertain people along the way
loved his Western Auto car and matching helmet.
Great update Kenny. I like everything you did there. That model company you're trying to think of may have been Model King?
I still can’t believe that he was an actor in Pixar cars as Darrel Cartrip
50.26 minutes interview with D.W? You lucky bastard. I miss him so much. Nascar is not the same without him
Hi, we felt very fortunate to spend all that time with him. It was great to talk with him about so many topics.
That's a fact.
Just more one time with Earhardt and Gordon in the booth
I could listen to this man talk for hours, I love DW
You and him both… We’re kidding, glad you enjoyed
That was one of the most enjoyable interviews I’ve ever watched. I thought at first 50 minutes was gonna be long , but it was over way too fast and left me wanting another hour.
Thank you very much, glad you enjoyed our sit down with Darrell
That’s just how it is with Ole DW
Obviously Waltrip didn't care for R. Petty, any idea of any history between them?
The legend DW!!
Very true
Great interview with a great racer. All I could think about was his best/worst day of his life, Dale blocking for Michael. Michael wins Daytona, Dale dies at Daytona, Darrell is calling it on TV.
I finally got around to watching this..........so glad I did. I really enjoyed it, thanks guys.
Thank you for watching, glad you enjoyed it
Very enjoyable. Thanks for posting.
35:45 If you bug a room and nobody in the room knows it, that's trouble. But as long a one person is aware of the recording being made, as far as I remember from my learning, you're golden.
DW your an icon always. Thank you to your wife and Daughters for giving there time to us. May you have a good retirement and life after racing.
I guess that's why I still watch The pipeline masters every year and never watch NASCAR anymore the thrill of victory and the Agany of defeat oh the hard way.
Really great interview, Darrell is a NASCAR treasure lovable personality
Thank you Alan, glad you enjoyed the interview… He certainly did share a lot of insight
GOD bless DW. Great man.
I ROCK racing cup. Ole DW.
Great stories from one of the legends of NASCAR.
Thank you for watching and the note. DW does have a way with words, for sure.
@@TheGarageShop200 definitely I miss him over at fox sports
Awesome interview... Ole DW is definitely a great story teller and a great guy too... And I love the Allison's so I know what I'll be doin half the night lol... I'll have all your videos watched and I'm subscribed and have the notifications on so I'll be waitin for the next one... Thanks guys I already love this channel
Thank you Harris, appreciate you coming on board and hope you enjoy all of them
What a fantastic interview!
Hello Karen, thank you for the note watching
Excellent interview sir! I’ve enjoyed your wonderful interviews as you are knowledgeable, gracious and sincere. Keep up the good job.
Not sure if that’s directed at DW or us 😁… But we appreciate your kind words and watching
@@TheGarageShop200 Sorry for the unclear message. It’s 100% YOU!!!
@@cerny4444 Awww shucks 😁. Thank you
D.W. is so right,THE GOLDEN YEARS OF N.A.S.C.A.R.
I was so pleased to find this man who I have admired since I was a child knows the wonderful joy of a relationship with Jesus Christ.
Great interview
Thank you Scott, glad you enjoyed it
What a tremendous interview.
Thank you, glad you enjoyed
My favorite one-liner by 'ole DW was the last Daytona 500 I ever attended, in '89, where he won the race strictly on fuel mileage. He didn't pit for fuel during the last scheduled stop, which put him in 1st place, and he was literally about to run out of gas during those final laps. It was a huge deal, because DW was one of a few drivers eligible to win the million dollar Unocal bonus money. I can't recall if it was right after the race, later that night, or even the next day........but some reporter asked him: "How much gas did ya really have left in that tank Darrell?"........... he looked at the reporter with a sh*t eatin' grin and said: "A million dollars worth".........LOL!!! That was priceless.
Glad you enjoyed the interview, he certainly left a lot of great one-liners throughout his career
DW is correct. His era WAS the golden age of NASCAR.
Great to hear from good ole DW, glad I found this.
Hello Ryan, we're glad you found us, too. Be sure to check out some of our other episodes with Bobby Allison, Donnie Allison and others. Thank you
Great interview, Jaws is the man
Glad you enjoyed
This is pure gold, great interview!
Thank you, Jeremy. Glad you enjoyed that episode
Holy smokes this is great !!!!!
Glad you enjoyed the interview
Thanks for the history lesson
Thanks for watching
If DW had a podcast that you had to pay for... It would be the only subscription I have ever had in media/podcast/Patreon etc.... Amazing communicator
He can tell a tale, can't he
Love DW. Still only use Tide. He’s 100% right on racing now vs then. Miss it.
I was just 18 year old kid and went to the Poconos race. Waltrip was running the 11 car, and the spectators were booing the man? I didn't know why? Guy, next to me said, that's waltrip he's terrible, race car driver, a few more laps went by, I leaned over and said to this guy if he's so terrible how come he's winning the damn race. Looks pretty good to me. This guy was like shshsh!! Don't talk good about him you won't make it out of here alive. Halfway through the race, I went and bought a waltrip shirt. That guy leaned over again said don't talk to us anymore. That was my first Nascar race. Waltrip was one of the best.
This was not at all what I expected. I never really liked Darrell as a race car driver; I thought he was too cocky. When I saw that this video was going to be 50 minutes long, I figured I'd watch for 10 minutes or so just to see what Darrell was like these days. Instead, I watched and enjoyed the entire conversation. He remains a "confident" person, but he also very engaging. Your conversation drew out some good stories from him. Incidentally, while I was never a Darrell Waltrip fan, his chrome Western Auto paint scheme is my all-time favorite NASCAR paint job. Even with all the fancy things that they can do with computers and vinyl wraps, I still like the white, orange, black and shades of gray Western Auto paint job.
Thanks for watching and your comments. We didn't know how long it was going to take, but once DW started rolling...we rolled with him.
Darrell is right, parity should be left out! I say race your own ride and not something that is made to be like all others! GO RACING, but with the safety rules. He has the racing mentality!
I love how DW always tells his stories with enthusiasm!!! Even if he has told it a hundred times!!!!!😎💪🇺🇸
Hate that he retired from the booth, he made the race fun.
Many agree with you
Love DW.
That interview flew by, very enjoyable. And he didn’t even need a second for that last question 😂
I was thinking to myself when listening to this interview there is only one driver today that would come close to Earnhart and Waltrip and DW answered it toward the interview.
Glad you enjoyed the interview
Darrell and Michael are my second cousins, remember many times being the only DW fan at a race ! But I never regretted supporting him or mikey!!
We can totally understand where you're coming from! ;) Thanks for watching and the note, Jody.
Darrell and Mikey are true racers.
I'm a big Dale Sr fan,that fate full day in Daytona ill never forget DW.Those 2 guys rubbing ( Sr & Dw) was the best racing ever.Haven't watched NASCAR since Jr retired.Got a little sad stumbling on this.Love Dw!!!!!!
Facts..
Old DW was a good driver.
I could listen to DW tell stories for days
He does have a way with words
I guess my question is, did Darrell's 72 Monte Carlo come from Banjo's. I have never heard Darrell say where the 72 Monte Carlo came from. The car I am asking about is (Darrell Waltrip won his first pole of his career while driving a 1972 Chevrolet Monte Carlo at Nashville in 1974. The Franklin TN resident ran a 101.274 mph lap over the .596 mile rack).
Cool hair, Darrell!
Hey, thanks!
He dominated in Nashville! watched him early 70s many times
D DubYa is ThA Coolest Son Of A Gun
We’ve ever seen and You’re ever going to
see here on this fine beautiful earth .
Unique, for sure
DW please come back to broadcasting we miss seeing you and hearing those famous words boogedy boogedy let's go racing boys
DW will you please come back we missed hearing boogedy boogedy boogedy
He always reminds me of my father. Him sitting in that chair. Would love to meet DW some day.
BOOGADY BOOGADY BOOGADY. Cheers...
I could listen to Darrell all day
So could he…we kid, but ask him! 😁
1:31 Undoubtedly
This man is a national treasure.
I sure do miss hearing DW Call the races on Fox love that man wish he would be brought back to call Races 💯💪🇺🇸
Darrell is a Fantastic story teller...great video..
Thank you for watching
Martinsville clock looks great in the corner. 👍
I love listening to DW and his brother… but let me tell you something that’s one damn good racecar driver no doubt one of the best if not the best
He is in the Hall of Fame, so we agree with you there
As great as any!
Hearing DW talk about David Pearson and Bobby Isaacs remind me of Mark Martin talking about his setups. He would willingly give them out because he felt he could still beat them. I'm sure Pearson and Isaac could out drive you, even if you knew what they were doing.
His stories are PRICELESS.
Yes, he does have a way of telling a tale.
Living Legend! 🙇♂️ 🙇♂️ 👏
Very true
Dale wrecked me, all star race. the 17, Dale said " I got into Darrell". that means wreck. a hard hit.
😮😮 love,,,hard work,,,racing 😊😊
Are you guys on iTunes? I can't find you on their list of podcasts!
Hi, we are not there yet as this Podcast is only eight episodes old and growing. We hope to be on there, soon. Thank you
One of the greatest
We agree
its interesting how he talks about his relation with Pearson, i agree that he was the GOAT
Finally an interview when the host let the guest talk(granted I know it's D.W) wonderful interview and stories.
Thank you for your kind words, Keith. Glad you enjoyed the interview
I live in Newcastle Australia and when DW went around Bathurst in a V8 supercar, it would've been an eye-opening experience. Find and watch it, he's commentary of Bathurst is funny. I really enjoyed this episode. Thank you.
Thank you for watching, all the way from Australia.
" It was against the law, but it wasn't a bad thing." 😂😂😂
imagine if DW would have won that first race 🤣 them good folks at nascar would have never heard the end of it lmao i would love to go back to the 70s & check out some good nascar & some street racing
A lot of people have said we invoke great memories from what we’ve done, we owe it all to those before us
He didn't change enough to lay off wrecking Davey Allison at Pocono. He didn't need to do that.
How many people like me still yelling Boogity Boogity Boogity at the start of every race bc of DW
Love get DW and Tim Brewer together
Love Darrell waltrip he is legendary i will always remember the day dale Earnhardt died on feb 18 2001 darrell said i just hope dales ok i guess hes alright isnt he and then they later found out that dale died suddenly
