In fact. He was so consistent in 2018, under Racing Reference non Playoff points for the 2018 Xfinity Series he would’ve WON THE TITLE.
the whole reason the playoff format got implemented was so a consistent top 10 driver with low/no wins like matt kenseth would never win it all again lol...
@@Yolo_Gamer-te3lg ironically, it could theoretically be done under the old "chase" format, and honestly I'd prefer that
@@Yolo_Gamer-te3lg Meanwhile, Matt Crafton: *hehe boi*
Matt Crafton broke the damn system

The greatest “one hit wonder” in all of nascar, the one time he won, it earned him a championship. Hemric may have only won once throughout the 3 series, but his consistency (mainly Xfinity) is insane.
2nd greatest
@@jarkson2901 let me guess first is paul menard?
@@CezNaf33 Trevor Bayne
@@jarkson2901 did he win a championship will doing it?
@@Tylerracingfan59 he won the damn Daytona 500, a championship in its own
His story was basically like a racing movie plot when you think about it
Yup
I find Hemric and Earnhardt are the two most unbelievable stories in NASCAR. You couldn’t make them up if you tried.
@@TripleXMango To be honest, Earnhardt is slightly overrated due to his death on track. All he ever did was just bump and pass everyone in front of him. All the races he ever participated in, a whopping 3 cars were off each race, *just because* they have been bumped by him. No other driver even comes close to an average like that.
If you want a real driver, it wasnt for nothing that he was called "The King".
I'll never forget attending the 2019 Daytona 500 and having garage passes with it. I remember going to Hemric's hauler and saw he was outside it signing autographs. I asked if he would sign my card I had of him and he did with a big bright smile on his face. Since that day I had always been a Daniel Hemric fan and stayed with him through so much heartbreak. When he won that race and that Championship, I released a scream of happiness and joy that I have only let out a few times in my life. Though he only has won one race as of now, it is one that made everything he wanted possible. I have stayed a Hemric fan through thick and thin, and I am not stopping anytime soon.
Hemric walked past me before Watkins Glen quali last year. Wished him luck, got a fist bump from him, and thanked me for supporting him. Great guy, great family man, solid racer. He deserved that title.
Another banger, keep it up
How I feel when either of you guys upload a new video
One of the best moments in NASCAR history at any level. "ONE MORE SHOT!" gives me as many chills as Gasly winning his first race if F1.
I believe I once heard if Hemric didn’t finish top 5 driving the 18, he wouldn’t get paid. It’s incredible how cut throat this sport is and how hard you have to fight for everything and every opportunity. Your editing is getting better and better with every video. Keep up the fantastic work Elly!
Being a Hemric fan is hard. Man’s been insane consistent his entire career. Beat Reddick on equal equipment in 2016, would’ve won the 2018 Xfinity title under full season points, and was dropped after just one season by RCR. (Which was one of RCR's worst in recent memory, even for Dillon). 2021 was so freaking hard to watch right till the end. Races like Atlanta, Charlotte, Texas, Martinsville, all of them he could’ve won but luck just didn’t allow. That title in the end, though he wasn’t the most deserving of it.. he deserved something at the end of the day.
He should have won the race and title in 2017, but his car broke. I see his win/title as some good karma after that all the times he’s been so close.
"Crazy Videos Taken Moments Before DISASTER!" Well played.
i remember being at that race in 2021. Best race ive ever gone to. When daniel hemric made the pass out of 4 for the win, everyone in the stands was in shock. It was like we never witnessed anything like that before.
I hope you remember being at the race. It was barely over a year ago...
“You’ll never have to answer that stupid question again”
Absolutely beautifully done, and the ending was amazing, bloody hell I think you're turning me into a NASCAR fan now
Yes... Join the dark side 😂
@@SouperGoose62fr
@@SouperGoose62 I’m a Ferrari fan, I don’t need to be in any darker of a place
@@alexbrookes9439 thats just sad bro 💀
Yes!!!
The loudest I’ve ever screamed at a tv was the hail melon and the 2021 xfinity championship finish
That one night in Phoenix is the reason why I love Motorsports.
The result isn't decided yet, and nobody can completely predict it, until cars and its driver actually cross the line.
I was at Auto Club 2022 and he was 6 laps down in the 16 car with technical problems all day long. He was in the pits more than I was in my seat. I’m still trying to figure out how he finished in 9th. What a dawg.
Wha- HOW?!
I remember watching the 2021 finale and honestly I didn't expect Hemric - a racer with 0 wins to become a champion. So yeah... Anything is possible.
*anything is possible due to the playoffs
He's so consistent, and managed to rise through the ranks because of it. I think RCR would have kept him if he had been more consistent in Cup.
Someone should make a legit holly wood movie about his story up to that point, I think if they can film it right, it could be a really good NASCAR movie
These videos are incredible, so detailed and so well put together at the same time, and always tell a story very well. Hemric absolutely deserved that title, you could say that all his bad luck was just leading up to the biggest moment of his life.
I will always remember watching and going nuts after seeing the Hemric with that Championship pass! That will always be one of the greatest passes for the win in history.
Suprised you didn't talk about Matt Crafton, as he won a championship without winning in 2019.
Hemrics win for the championship was imo one of the best championship finishes ive ever seen. It was edge of your seat exciting
Him winning the title in 2021 was so awesome to see
This is by far the greatest NASCAR channel on RUclips. The storytelling, the graphics, fantastic editing, nobody else is close. Look forward to more in the future!
Daniel should drive the 31 in 2024 for Kaulig.
Man is a psychic
Man that F-zero and Maximum Carnage OST hit me right in the feels.
Great video as always, love to see more content like this.
Which of those was used in the the final restart of the championship race?
@@acedelta12 neither one, I'm not sure what was being used for that part. The maximum Carnage song picks up around 11: 15, and the F-zero track is right before that one
i'm a F1 fan i watch some other motorsports but never had watched nascar before but tbh ur videos keeps pushing me to starting watching the sport and i already bought nascar heat 5 to try and understand the racing
please don't rely on heat 5 to get you into NASCAR. if you're on PC, NR2003 is free and REALLY good
@@shark3744 oh tnx a lot bro i know that heat 5 is not a good representation of the sport i got it in a simracing bundle so i thought to try it just to understand the rules .. but i didn't know about NR2003 thank you for that
I was at the season finale race at Phoenix, and I was just praying that Hemric would finally get the win, and he did...
I was so happy when he won...
I was at that race, was my first xfinity race, first night race, and first short track. Only races I’ve been prior is Sonoma every year, Daytona and Talladega. Sitting right at the start finish line and seeing that was awesome
Fantastic job on this video. I love it! I never really payed attention to Daniel Hemric and never rooted for him either. But this gave me a great view on his journey to an Xfinity champion. Well done
That days of thunder clip with Joe and Riley had me rolling!!! 🤣🤣🤣
As a Hemric myself I waited along time for that first win. More will come.
Oh my god man, seriously. WHAT AMAZING QUALITY! Your channel is now one of the best nascar channels on RUclips right now! Great job!
You have made some of the best nascar documentaries out there. I hope to see more up the woodworks soon.
Man I watched this season and the championship still one of the craziest endings ever
2021 was arguably, the greatest year in Motorsports
In F1: one of the greatest championship battles ever
In Cup: a disgraced driver comes back to win the title
In Xfinity: The last lap pass that led to a first win, and a first championship
In Trucks: (what happened in trucks again)
There are likely other stories as well, I just don’t know them
Love the Carl Edwards Backflip he did to seal it too.
I keep looking at your subscriber count and feel amazed that you only have 14K subscribers. Your videos are absolutely amazing, I love the occasional goofy edits and overall just having fun with it, it's quality levels I'd expect from a channel with a few hundred thousand subs.
I really enjoyed this video, the dramatic ending at the championship race was super well edited too
Your voice narrating, your story telling, and your editing are fabulous sir. It’s baffling that you have limited followers. Thank you for what you provide
awesome stuff, i really love these type of videos
This channel really has helped resurge my love for NASCAR since I started watching the sport almost two decades ago. Keep doing what you're doing. 👌🏻
The back flip
This is awesome please keep making them.
Damn dude, your videos are sick and your editing is great. I don't normally watch NASCAR but you're certainly bringing me round
Great video man I was actually just thinking about hemric's career last night keep up the good work
I was just rewatching your last few videos and then this one showed up in my recommended. Nice!
Please do more Driver stories
beautifully done. you’re quickly becoming one of my favorite content creators out there
Just found your channel - enjoying the unique style of your nascar content. Keep it up
Great job, really enjoyed this.
If I have to be completely honest, before his winning title, I just thought Hemric was that lucky but also unlucky driver, and I kinda still believe that. He proved to show some good stats throughout his tenure which got him into the cup series (even though he sucked); however until that faithful night when he won it over Cindric, he had never won a single race in any of the divisions, not even any expedition races. He has some good talent, he just can't win. Which is why (possible unpopular opinion here) that he should have stayed with JGR for another season or two, because with the current state of the team, they need any drivers they can get for the inevitable retirement of Hamlin and Truex (or something different). But instead he went to Kaulig, which honestly was a big disappointment in my opinion. Sure he was in the car that could only win on superspeedways, but still. I really do hope Hemric enjoys he time in NASCAR and does something other than winning a 2nd tier series title by feet. Because at this rate, he looks to be forgotten in the future.
I'm from Kannapolis, just like him and the Earnhardts. I remember that name being thrown around a lot. It's so cool to see it come to fruition.
Goddamn your videos, voice, commentary, everything. Just beautiful
7:05 why am I laughing at the clown honk lol.
another banger video
Fantastic video man!!
The Eminem reference 🤌 chefs kiss. Great video elly.
Nice dive with this vid, goodjob!!

Is that the music chosen for the finale?

You have really good taste in video game soundtracks.
What version of bowser”s castle did you use at the end
14:36 and thats how hemric'ing has created

Other racers: I race to win, i want to win week in and week out.

It's a good day to have another new EP video
I just found out Daniel Hemric actually won a race let alone a whole championship.
Hemorrhoids exposed a horribly broken playoff system.
Playoffs > Full Season Points
@@heidtxtreme1648 if they did away with the rounds then it would be fine.
@@NASCAR_Junk kinda like 2004-2013?
I liked the Car shop 22 scheme 👀👀
I really thought after he finally broke through the flood gates would open especially when he joined kauilig
And then kaulig was just shit this year
Wasn't great this year either. The expansion to cup has come with growing pains for sure
Also remember at Gibbs he only got paid when he scored top 5s
He bet on himself and he won
What a story
To this day, it's hilarious how Hemric took the car that finished last in the chase with zero stage wins and 15 laps led in 2020, to winning the championship the next year as well as leading laps and scoring stage wins. Herbst took the car that won 9 races in 2020, to back-to-back first round exits with zero stage wins in that span. And the best part is that Herbst now has cup cars to tear up!
Not funny dude. Not funny. What if Herbst actually gets injured because of the Next Gen car and the concerns about the safety of the car?
@@johnvandeventer8668 NASCAR improved the safety in the cars during the offseason anyways, he'll be fine. He won't end up like Kurt.
GG hemric
What was the music you used for the final restart of the championship race?
Speaking of him. He flipped at Talladega
Not the goofy ahh sounds tho sksksks
0:47 Wow.
I was at that race I was freaking out
Always found it wild that he won ROTY (albeit with a weak class) and didn't have a ride the next year. You'd think a minor team would at least put a bid in
What’s that song at the end of the video I wanna have it on my Spotify playlist
You a legend if u beat Cindric💀💀
54 was dominated in 2021 then In 2023 the 10 is dominated
I was there for that championship it was electric best race I’ve been too
Almost the Fernando Alonso of nascar
I caught the reference at 10:06 that was disastrous
First race on Sunday let’s gooooo
me wondering what the song on the bristol part is
bkr "now flourishing"
10:06 Lets-a go!
Wow this was a marvel to watch. Anyway I would love to see you make a video about Chase Elliott and his struggles all the way to being a cup series champion
