      ​@@dadbodiiit was actually a very accurate nickname. Early in the MWR days Reuti was the sole bright spot, even holding his own in a couple races his rookie season. He was the biggest reason, driver wise that the team was able to grow. Eventually winning the rain shortened Coke 600. Which after 2007, the entire world would have laughed at the idea that MWR would ever see victory lane. Then a year later he flat out won Chicago. A down year and a renewed MWR unfortunately caused him to leave. kind of a shame, solid driver

Is it aggressive? Not one bit. Is it dirty? Nope. Is it a popular way to race? Also no

    Denny is an enigma. I haven't had a driver I truly support since Keselowski left Penske (although I still believe in his talent). I think Denny has been one of the most talented drivers since he took over that 11 car, but has the biggest ego to go with it. I'd love to see him break through and win a championship, but his shenanigans and run-ins will only continue to suppress his full potential.

Incredibly normal night with one big block. Calling it a nightmare race is so bizarre, this is obviously an attempt to capitalize on the recent Hamlin controversies. Still, fun race and fun recap except for the reaching.

    It’s very rare that a video from the NASCAR community actually pisses me off, but I feel like the way you titled this video and how you went after Denny specifically is such an obvious plot to capitalize in light of his current reputation. My problem with this is that there are plenty of examples of drivers having much dirtier races… I see nothing in this video that even comes close to justifying the title.
    I mean I don’t feel like picking apart every single incident he was in from this race, but to call him a “ABSOLUTE Weapon” is just not accurate. Every incident he was “Involved in” was not egregiously his fault, and yet you try to make it seem that way. To me the whole thing just seems like clickbait

    Dennys the kind of kid who wanted the clear blue N64 and shut down Christmas when his parents got him the regular N64.

    Most people don’t realize that the ONLY way Hamlin ever wins anything, is if he egregiously wrecks out his competition with dirty moves. This is why he’s never won a championship and WILL NEVER win a championship…

    Hamlin (like many others) has always been a dirty racer; but the problem I have always had with him is that he pretends to always be the victim. This is why Hamlin will never win a championship.

    Hope Denny makes it to the Championship 4 and Larson right rear hooks him into the wall of the first lap at Phoenix!!!!
