Upside Down & On Fire: The Ballad of Clint Bowyer
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 23 июл 2022
- NASCAR is full of kooky characters. Some you can't miss while others you have to go out of your way to find. With Clint Bowyer though, you couldn't help but notice him because he was smack dab in the middle of pretty much every major event in NASCAR history for the past 15 years. So who exactly is the zany little character from Kansas? Well, let's find out.

Another fun fact about 07/07/07 statistic: The 07 Team had the 7th pit stall that day.
🤯
Also the 7th day of the week, God’s day
And he finished 7th
Yo
Your shitting me
“An Innocent Joey Logano” is a phrase I never thought I would hear anyone say out loud 😂
Lol it’s weird how different Joey is now compared to how he started out
To be fair, every so often an instigator of crashes falls victim to ones where they had nothing to do with them. Take one of the many occasions Dale Earnhardt failed to win the Daytona 500, specifically 1992. An accident ahead of him left him with nowhere to go, other than the infield grass, despite his reputation for wrecking other drivers, he was an innocent victim
I don’t care for Logano, he’s just a dirty driver. It really bothers fans and other drivers alike.
Dale Jr. is different since “he owns it in a cool way” but Logano still gives that vibe of one who doesn’t care; uses cheap tactics.
"Innocent Joey Logano" MY FUCKING ASS!!!
Damn right you are. He was innocent, until "the big boys" and Mr Penske together changed him.
even in a Clint Bowyer video, S1ap somehow finds his way back to the 07 Daytona 500 which of course has Mark Martin…
It’s S1ap’s Lord And Savior lol
Mark got low keyed robbed. Nascar was slow with the caution flag.
@@tanker335 So you wanted them to ruin a photo finish in the biggest race of the season? Imagine what social media would've said to that.
@@crystaljon If you mean get it right then yes. I really don't care what social media says. About anything.
It's not a S1ap video if Mark Martin or the 1992 Hooters 500 aren't mentioned
It's called the Hall of Fame, not the Hall of Winners. You don't need to be a great driver to make it. You just at least need to be memorable. With what I just said, Clint Bowyer is definitely a HOF worthy driver.
Just call it the hall of good then. Doesn’t have any big wins.
@@scottyoung7414you don’t know what fame means do ya 😂😂
I mean if Donnie Allison, with the same amount of Cup wins, could get into the Hall of Fame for being Bobby's brother and getting into a fight after getting wrecked in the Daytona 500, then maybe Clint has a chance years down the line. He'd certainly have a unique highlight reel lol
The “Kooky Characters that made Nascar more fun” sector of the Hall would be the coolest “we aren’t like the other sports” thing to do. Nascar has so many interesting characters and stories to be told, it’s only right that this be a thing.
Also known as the Delma Cowart section.
@@ryansheehan9462”I may have never won a race, but I never lost a party”. Delma was one of a kind.
Clint seems like the guy who had everything needed to win, but never the luck.
I'm glad that he still remains as a voice in NASCAR.
How many dad jokes can Clint tell in just an hour??
@@RJLightning68 Guess we’ll have to find out
clint was the fans driver and now he’s the fans broadcaster
@RJLightning68 probably 7
Fun Fact: Clint Bowyer's last race was also the last race for 2003 NASCAR Cup Series Champion Matt Kenseth as well as the last race for 7 Time Champion Jimmie Johnson driving his iconic #48 Hendrick Motorsports Chevrolet
Wow even in retirement he finds his way into the background
Two of the last guys to have raced under the "Winston Cup" banner. A dying breed. That leaves Kurt Busch as the sole survivor from the old school.
@@gaffneyrailroading1982 Kevin Harvick as well
@@natecarter3537 Yes if I’m correct after the tragic loss of Dale Earnhardt at the Daytona 500 of 2001 I believe Richard tapped the then Rookie Kevin Harvick to race for Dale in the number 29 GM Goodwrench as Richard Childress retired the Number 3 from Competition until 2014 when his Grandson Austin Dillion made his debut in Cup
Won't be Jimmie's last race anymore
Clint Bowyer, my eternal Eutechnyx drafting partner. In other words, an incredibly underrated driver, but someone who'll ultimately get remembered for Richmond.
Pittsburgh Penguins fan huh? Let’s go Pens!
Fun fact: I was there for the 07 500race. That night it got super cold and you could tell the cars that were set up for it when the lights came on. Also, ironically, where Clint flipped was right in front of where me and my family were seated, 2 rows up from the track. It was absolute pandemonium. Loved every second of that finish. (Had a great view of whole race with the jumbotron right directly in front of us)
I wish I could go to a NASCAR race.
Dude really just spartaned through the Charlotte Roval without power steering in the eve of his career. What a fucking legend, he never had the big chance to show his true talent but what a fucking character, no matter how, always making it to the front picture of any event going on. I'm glad he's in the commentary booth now, what a man.
Looking at that pic of him collapsed next to his car, I imagine one of the thoughts that passed through his head was something like "Holy fuck, now I know why Mark Martin practically lived at the gym..."
"We Got One Car on his Roof, Coming Across the Start Finish Line" - Larry Mac
"Bowyer's On Fire" - DW
From the 2007 Daytona 500
Hahaha I wonder if Clint was thinking these two things?
“We are upside down this isn’t good”
“Help me Jesus! Help me Jewish God! Help me Allah! AAAAAHHH! Help me Tom Cruise! Tom Cruise, use your witchcraft on me to get the fire off me! Help me Oprah Winfrey”!!!
DW: they're still wrecking, there wrecking everywhere
Loved this video, fantastically presented, selling Bowyer as the consummate Forrest Gump of nascar just turning up in the background of every major race or event, even that Martinsville race he took Gordon out at would have been a huge milestone win for Hendrick. Super video.
Aside from the fact that it will most likely be NASCAR-related (aside from his April Fools videos), I swear it's impossible to predict the topic of the next S1apSh0es video.
If not NASCAR, then something that came from NASCAR like Super Modified series.
Mark Martin
I'm still waiting for an episode about the Camping World Truck Series.
I really like this series of explaining a drivers career and their ups and downs and thought of another 2 ideas that you can use.
1. Nascar’s True Neutral: A Paul Menard Story
2. NASCAR’s Favorite Hotshot: The Career of Jamie Mac
Should definitely include the Furniture Row Racing story
Jamie Mac definitely had an interesting career. You look at the races hes won. Not alot of them but the ones he did win were HUGE!
DannyBTalks already did the Menard video, albeit he just reads off wiki
Would LOVE a Jamie Mac story
Jamie McMurray would be fascinating since he underachieved the vast majority of his career but every once in a while he pulled off giant victories
I’m surprised you didn’t mention the results of the 2012 ford 400. The VERY next week.
Jeff Gordon won. And Clint got second.
I knew it was fixed. Lol
I remember at the time joking that Jeff won because he was still running away from Clint
Then in an iRacing event in 2020 Clint got 33rd place after a last-lap crash while two other wrecks knocked Jeff Gordon (on a sim rig provided by Clint) to 38th ahead of only Denny Hamlin (who only ended up last place and over 20 laps down because Denny's daughter Taylor got hold of the remote and turned Denny's screen off)
Jesus Christ, the Tony Stewart thing killed me
That’s going to be a classic picture in the future. Old man gave it his all without power steering, legendary performance.
Mirroring Mark Martin.
I think Bowyer would go into the Hall of Fame due to his Busch series title more than anything in the cup series. I honestly think lower division champions belong just as much as Cup series champions
Its a feeder series though, always has been, you don't seriously think Daniel Hemric, Tyler Reddick, and William Byron are just as talented as Chase Elliott, Kyle Busch, Kevin Harvick, and Danny Hamlin do you?
@@alexisborden3191 No, but Richie Evans is in the hall for being the most dominant Modified driver ever. Why shouldn't Sam Ard, Mike Skinner, Jack Sprague and Jack Ingram be in the hall for their performances in their respective series?
@@alexisborden3191 Well Ron Hornaday Jr got in the hall so it's obviously a joke
@@wyatberp3611 you do realize the truck series is a legitimate national championship right?
@@xavierjuno4572 I do, but hornaday is the joke..
I don’t know if someone already commented this, but the points penalty for the MWR cars after spingate didn’t affect Clint’s final points standing. In fact, it essentially did nothing to him. The penalty was pre-reset for the chase so all it did was bump Truex out in favor of Newman. Bowyer would’ve been 7th regardless. Good video tho as always!
Bruh I swear you obsessed with the 07 daytona 500
It was a hell of a race
Have you seen his obsession with the 1992 Hooters 500?
Anything that has to do with Mark Martin, he’s obsessed with
I do know of the importance of how Bowyer finished that race.
I was at the Snow Martinsville race, I was excited to see him happy to win after so long. I was shocked when he did but couldn’t help myself screaming and clapping after he did.
Can we just appreciate his 5 hour energy cars’ paint scheme?
Yes we can. That was an absolutely gorgeous livery. It's one of my favorites, not just from NASCAR but any kind of racing.
It’s just crazy how much has happened to this man… even recently. I definitely cried in an unmanly way when he announced his retirement after being a fan of his since I was a little boy. I absolutely agree that he will become a HOFer eventually, and I’m still hopeful that he’ll get the chance to sub or make a one off appearance in the Cup Series at some point
I always had a soft spot for Clint and actually teared up when I saw the roval picture cause you could see the disappointment in his face
That Michigan race in 2018 was one to remember. I remember being incredibly excited for not only Clint getting the W but also for Paul Menard for stealing a top five.
I met Clint in early 2006 at a autograph signing at our local short track. He was the only recognizable driver there, but I was aware of who he was coming up through the Busch Series. I was shy kid, and he noticed when I sheepishly brought up my diecast to the signing table. I don't remember exactly what he said, but it was some kind of pick-me-up message that made me smile. Sorta like that Mean Joe Green Coca Cola commercial. I was definitely a fan after that. I was also there on the frontstretch for the 500 in 2007, and saw him sliding across the line on his roof. That was freaking awesome. What a great career he had.
Love how you (even if it was brief) mentioned the auto racing culture here in the state of Kansas. Lots of people out here love racing just as much as folks in the deep south. When NASCAR decided to build Kansas Speedway in Wyandotte County, I was do disappointed. I feel like they could've built that track literally anywhere else in the state and it would've resonated more with the locals. I still resent the hell out of that track.
15:52 What also didn't help was that Dale Jr, who was running behind Bowyer when he spun, was interviewed after the race, and saw through it IMMEDIATELY
He all but said that he thought Bowyer spun on purpose
I actually met Clint once, at a race at Atlanta. A family friends gave my dad and I box seats in the Toyota box, and Clint came up and signed autographs and took pictures. He was super nice, and he even teased me about my Dale Jr shirt I was wearing. I still even have the helmet he signed.
I have never watched a Nascar race,but I always tune in to watch your videos because you're a natural storyteller. I really mean it those 20 minutes went by in the blink of an eye.
Same. These vids just started showing up in my recommended this afternoon and now I'm hooked, despite knowing absolutely nothing about Nascar
Tony Stewart's head photoshoped on Jesus is something I didn't know I needed
I miss that Jack Daniel's livery. It's fantastically simple.
Me too. That was a awesome looking car.
The font they used on the 7 bothers me though. It looks more like an upside down 2. I can't look at it without flipping it in my head.
Edit - 1:52 see... that's the freaking 20 car, not 07🤔
@@joeg5414 I agree. The Jack Daniels livery is great except for that upside-down 2.
I also think Bowyer's 5 Hour Energy livery was excellent too.
I didn't remember the 07 being an RCR
The Up and down career of Clint is still playing out in the booth! (Prayers and thoughts are with both family's involved in the accident) Hopefully he can bounce back better in 23' like always has!🤞Either way if we never see Clint in the sport again, He definitely deserve to be in the HOF because how many 25 yr old be able to handle a full sponsorship from Jack Daniels and live to tell about!!
Clint Bowyer was and still is my favorite driver of all time. I feel like he got such bad luck, as soon as he started to get decent equipment or luck, something bad would happen. If it wasn't for spingate, I think he could have been even better.
I'd love to see your take on Ernie Irvan's career.
(Say in Slap's voice...)
Ernie Irvin single handedly gave us 'The Big One' - yeah; what we know as The Big One existed before, but Irvin took it to a whole 'nother level...and cemented 'The Big One' into NASCAR nomenclature...
Roll the footage...
That's why they called him "Swervin' Irvan."
“They call him Swervin Irvin…especially for this time he side swiped Mark Martin during the 1992 Holly Farms 400”
You know, I don’t even watch NASCAR, but you’re such a great storyteller, I wait for these uploads and get invested in the stories you tell.
Clint Bowyer will always be one of those drivers I just plain like, even with the history between him and my all-time favourite driver Jeff Gordon and his involvement in MWR's race-fixing scheme. Clint was an underrated driver and a lively, fun, likeable personality in an era where those became fewer and farther between with each passing year.
I know clint personally cause my dad works for a company that sponsored him when he was at stewart haas. Nicest guy you’ll ever meet. Great with kids. One of the coolest and most badass drivers ive met.
To be honest Clint bowyer was my 3rd favourite driver he’s someone who has great humour and showed great talent at times and after 2020 it was quite hard to see him leave racing but it was for the better because his face showed after the roval in 2020 that he was done and couldn’t keep up anymore and now he’s the new Darrel waltrip, and to be honest he had a pretty good career in my opinion he really showed what he can recover or not, and I think Clint up to this day deserves respect for what he has done in the sport.
I've known clint since those thunderhill and lakeside days and i can say he's not just my favorite nascar driver past or present he's a friend. 1 memory I'll never forget was Cresco iowa 2007 clint flew in to a little Airport over across the Mississippi river in Illinois to run a USMTS race that night in cresco. After the heat races the crew needed to change the transmission on his Jack Daniels modified and while that was going on we sat in the back of the race trailer and talked for a 30-45 minutes. To this day my greatest racing memory! Getting to see and hear him on the fox broadcast still makes me smile! Great video Sir!
Small correction, Jack Daniels stayed on in 2009, Casey Mears drove the 07 for reasons I don’t understand while Clint got moved to the Cheerios 33.
Mears is another one who deserves a video, one of the biggest underachievers in nascar history
Clint Bowyer: A great NASCAR Driver that somehow ends up at the wrong place, at the wrong time. The 3-Wide Wreck at Martinsville was proof of that. He got bumped during the restart & he chose to go on the inside to avoid rear-ending Jeff Gordon, but *3 Wide, into Turn 1, at Martinsville,* we had a hunch that it wouldn't end well at that point. By the end of the day, Clint bared most of the brunt of the outrage, but Jeff forgave him.
Clint Bowyer, forever my favorite driver as a proud Kansan. Absolute king. He put the racing scene of an entire state on his back. Hope we can produce another good driver at the top level some day with Clint done.
Loved the Video Man!
Clint’s So Underrated He was a Very Consistent Driver He was always a top 10 threat and he’s nab a win here in there.
I’d Love to see a Video like this About Ryan Newman he’s got such a Crazy Timeline of Success and Failures in Nascar.
From his Success At Penske to his crash at Daytona and his late career Resurgence in 2019 to ultimately him being out of the sport .
He was A Very Underrated just like Clint.
Love your Videos Slap Keep em Coming!!
Funny, I was actually at that 2007 Kansas race and actually really really happy to see Biffle still called the winner of the race at the time. Biff was really fast in that race and I thought he deserved it more. Apparently so did NASCAR even though his car quit 400 feet early.
My favorite driver from the modern era. Been a fan of his since I was a kid, and I’m so happy he’s still around in the sport as a commentator. He’s just a good guy.
clint is the only driver i ever met in person, and he signed my shirt! wish i kept it around. i'll always have a soft spot for him, even if he did piss off my favorite driver to the point of no return
Clint Bowyer is the reason I was in the local newspaper as a kid. I got to take a picture with him at the local liquor store. JD was his sponsor, so go figure. 😂 Wish I could have the chance to meet him today and thank him for the cool experience
Amazing video! Clint is always going to be memorable to me, the dude doesn't deserve any of the hate, got caught up in a lot of bs through his career, but a genuine character like him is something NASCAR desperately needs. I love him in the booth, I feel bad that they are having him play into the goon side more than the insight he does have. Will always be one of my favorite guys in the sport
I'm looking forward to more driver retrospectives if it continues. I missed Bowyer driving, he was always a true wildcard driver
I actually have that Dave Blaney Jack Daniel's diecast (and I need to get a Ryan Blaney 1:24th scale diecast so I have both father and son) also, there's obviously three numbers to do all sevens: the 07, 7 and 77
its worth pointing out and im surprised slapshoes didnt mention the context for the martinsville race. bowyer got punted into both gordon and johnson, but that would have been hendrick win 200. they were at 199. geoff bodine got hendrick off the ground, but gordon made hms into what it is today so to be at the center of that, at his favorite track, and missing out on the milestone, its a bit more understandable how jg felt in that moment. he also didnt get win 200. johnson did
What a great video! Clint is one of those personalities in our sport you grow to love. MWR has to be one of the biggest what ifs in Nascar history.
Clint Bowyer’s career was pretty much like an acid trip. Again, comical, for one of the best characters in all of NASCAR.
Never watched a Nascar race but this video was great. I never miss one of your videos.
I'll tell you why I have never watched a race.
I can't follow how it works. A series inside the series with playoff,, adding "race to the cup" with the same drivers racing in 2 class. This is like Chinese to me and I speak fluent Chinese.
When people east coast say that Midwest people are dumb,, I think they are mistaking as you need a PHD to follow what is going on with Nascar.
Ha ha ha
@@iix23It’s so stupid, the only way to follow it is when they have to show the playoff cut line on TV because it’s too convoluted to figure out with quick math.
I got to watch Clint for years at Lakeside Speedway in KC. He really is that funny and that approachable. If you pitted near Clint and needed a tool or even a part, he always helped as best he could.
Childhood favorite! Clint was my first favorite driver and I’ve always had huge amounts for respect for him. This video was a PERFECT recap of his career
Really appreciate the music in this, adds a lot to the vid. Another very good one!
I was six, my favorite drivers were Scott Riggs and Mark Martin. At some point Riggs was really close to the front because I think he got 2 tires on a stop, but seeing Mark near the front at the end got me so hyped, I cried after they said Harvick won. I never liked Harvick because I didn't like the Red and Yellow color scheme.
Same color scheme as Ronald McDonald...which made me cry- for obvious reasons.
Are you a fellow Logano despiser?
@@ryancurley2351 how did u know!!
Thank you so much for all the hard work & time that you invest in the making of your NASCAR videos. I stand by the fact that yours are some of the best you can find. Whenever I get a notification for a new video you just posted, I always stop whatever I'm doing to watch it. So thank you, again, for the few minutes of enjoyment that ur videos give me anytime I watch them...
This was a fantastic video. Definitely one of your best. Gives me a different appreciation for Clint and his career
VA11-Hall A OST goes hard. Knew I recognized the first song immediately, glad it was in the description so I could be reminded where it was from.
The whole reason I love Clint is like you said “how did someone go through this much shit in a short period of time”
Watched this live on TV, and Clint Bowyers finish is one of my most memorial points in NASCAR history in the 07 car...actively followed NASCAR till 2010 when I was 13
Clint Bowyer may not have the Championship trophies for the Hall of Fame, but he *definitely* has a HOF-worthy highlight reel. And you need characters like that in any sport. Easily a top-tier driver, with multiple race wins under his belt, could've easily had a Cup championship to his name had just a few things swung in his favour at the right time, but was also a big character with tonnes of charisma and a plethora of memorable moments in his career retrospectives - for better and for worse. And every sport, every racing series, needs characters exactly like Clint. Hard chargers, fan favourites, guys who lit up the track both on and off it. Kinda like a Daniel Ricciardo in Formula One, I guess.
Wow. Sir, you are exceeding all expectations with every video of yours I watch. Thank you!! Over the last decade, I have become an F1 fan, Moto gp fan, Indycar fan, and now a sports car (imsa) fan....NASCAR is my last frontier of motorsports fandom. I only have so much time in the day...but the reverence in which you talk about the sport in your videos makes me more and more eager to really dive into it sooner rather than later. Again...thank you for what you do.
This is an amazing channel. This is the best racing history I have come across and your perspectives have helped rekindle my love of racing. When I was a kid, it was the local short track in western Oregon on Saturday nights, and then waking up and watching the Winston cup race on this new thing called cable tv with Dad
I doubt I’ll ever find interest in the shit show that has become NASCAR, but I think I’ve rediscovered my love of local short track racing.
Thanks S1ap. This old guy appreciates it 👍🏻
I met clint bowyer at my first ever in person race at darlington my grandma won tickets from her work and took me and boy was he a great guy and I had a blast i watched the race from the infield on the 5 hour energy rv and it was just amazing i had the pit headphones and all it was amazing i loved it!!!
you know, this video really put me in the mood for racing, no seriously i'm starting my career right now, doubt i'll get anywhere anytime soon but man what a beautiful vid, thank you for posting this
Great video, thanks S1apshoe!
The 07 Daytona 500 was the first NASCAR race I ever truly watched with my dad, and MY GOD, what an introduction it was. He told me all about Mark Martin (he's a huge fan), and so I was rooting for him too. Without a doubt, one of the best things I ever watched on TV, right up there with the series finale of Avatar the Last Airbender and the CTV News background fistfight.
Another great video Slap!! I always loved Bowyers attitude, like when he had a DNF for whatever reason you might just see him up in the grandstands partying with the fans... Don't get much more cool than that... And I definitely enjoy watchin him in the booth, it's like he was just built for that in my eyes... Thanks Slap I needed a good watch this evenin...
I really enjoyed this video, S1ap - lovely stuff.
I love the videos and the effort you put into them! I love the frequency too, keep up the amazing work!
I love the way he makes every victory in his career as if it were his last
This was so well made!!!
And made me a bigger Clint fan!
Thank-you, even though Nascar has fallen off my radar these last 15 years, the stories of the characters involved are always entertaining, especially when it's one of those drivers I only ever knew as a name and a number.
Your version of Tony Stewart! Just fantastic 👌 I had a good laugh at that picture! After the words, "our Lord and savior, Tony Stewart."
you should do a video breaking down how much the aftermath of spin gate has had on nascar to this day
Slap’s videos never miss
One thing I remember from the 2007 Daytona 500 was my dad joking about how they must've known he would flip so they painted the number 20 upside down on the car. It's one of the last memories I have from my dad cause he was on leave from Iraq at the time and would pass just a month and a half later
Good dude, Good hard Core racier. An good broadcast announcer. Definitely hall of Famer. Thank you Clint bowyer for it all.
Great video, thanks for making me appreciate Clint a little more.
One of the best races in history: 07 Daytona
It got me into NASCAR as a then 8 year old.
When I saw the 07 Jack Daniels car, at first I thought "why do they have an upside down number 2 next to a zero?" At first I thought it was a hilariously different way to show 02, but in fact it was related to the Old Number 7 brand as S1ap said. I just thought I would provide a quick laugh at my expense, lol
Excellent as always, and Bowyer deserves more credit than he gets. I'd like to suggest a video on MWR, which has one of the wildest histories ever in NASCAR
Another banger by S1ap. Great production yet again brother.
what I like about slapshoes Is sometimes there's easter eggs In some of these videos that show us some stuff we don't know, and than slap talks about It In the future, and then he gives us another story In the same race, only different' that's amazing.
The only thing I can think that tops Clint Bowyer finishing the 2007 Daytona 500 upside down and on fire is the way Christian Fittipaldi finished the 1993 Italian Grand Prix. On the run up to the chequered flag, he closed in on his team mate Pierluigi Martini for (a pointless) 7th position. However, he got fractionally too close, clipped the back of his team mate, completed a near perfect somersault before landing right side up before crossing the line in 8th position. Certainly the most spectacular 8th place finish in F1 history. Not even Michael Schumacher finishing 8th in the 2003 Japanese Grand Prix (securing his then record breaking 6th title) could top it
Great video! I was a kid who grew up in Kansas, and became a fan of NASCAR in 2005. Naturally I became a huge fan of Bowyer. I remember all these great moments over several years. I have awesome memories from Lakeside speedway, and dirt racing in KS. Clint’s career was a product of the absolute fervor that was grassroots racing in the Kansas City area during the early 2000s. Lakeside Speedway & I-70 we’re developing lots of great talent back then. And then they built the Kansas Speedway around that time. Clint was one of many that got starts in ARCA, but he made the most of it. Sponsors were also putting money into racing in the local area back then. It was a great time, and I’m glad I got to see “glory days” of local racing in KC. Unfortunately the days of being a local talent in the midwest, getting your shot, and going to the big leagues are long gone.
The Jon Bois of NASCAR is back again!
Greeting slap as a man from chanute Kansas just a few hours away from Clint's hometown thank you for making this video for one of the nicest guys in racing and all of us here in Kansas
Thanks slap we are always waiting for you bro
Another banger put out by Slap. This one really made me think and appreciate Clint Bowyer more too. When you said he should be in the Hall of Fame it took me a second but I kinda agree. I wouldn’t be mad if he was he would be a fun pick and a great addition to it
Man, your content is insanely consistent. Been watching forever and love every video.
seeing clint bowyer sitting down by his car looking exhauted made me feel bad and sad at the same time
Love the content bro, got a video idea; you could look at the greatest drivers from the 60’s, 70’s, 80’s, 90’s, 2000’s & 2010’s, do a video for each episode. Keep up the good work g
Our lord and savior, Tony Stewart.
Just as Jesus intended.
I loved that Va-11 Hall-A soundtrack at the background. It really fitted Clint's style XD
Also. The best part: Clint Bowyer accidentally always found himself in the spotlight, never meaning to. In the end, he realized that if he did it of his own free will, it would become the best, and it ended up being the best decision of his life. He ended up becoming two things: a good driver and a great entertainer.
Somebody, finally, points it out. When Good for Health, Bad for Education started playing I had to do a double take.
I don’t know why S1ap uses the Va11 Hall-A soundtrack in so many of his videos, but I am not complaining
@@jam_plays_games because he's a certified weeb.
So good! keep em comin Sh0es !!
