      @@stormcerj 850hp ...that's what i miss, just listen to how much better the cars sound, even though there running plates here and with them they still had around 650HP, the engines still sounded better even with restrictor plates, and now they've castrated the cars down to 500HP without plates!!!, pathetic!!! Not only that, used to be men, with personalities, not these spoiled kids who are like cold fish with no personality, boring and sterile, goody two shoes corporate hacks with no appeal whatsoever, hell i can't even find a driver to pull for anymore, not that it matters because i quit watching every Sunday since 2016 when they went to the new shit no power engines, that was just like the last straw for me, and I'm glad i did because they havn't stopped destroying everything that made NASCAR what it once was, all these rediculous rules, stage racing, ( what ever happend to endurance), shortening most of the races from 5 to 400 miles, the cars look horrible and now with those carbon fiber bodies just a little contact and the caris destroyed, you can't beat the dents out like metal and most of the time there is nothing left to beat out because the body is disintegrated all over the back stretch, and glowlights, like some lowrider thug!? Really??? That's the furthest thing from what NASCAR was, i mean you know the greats are rolling over in their graves, just sad what they've done and continue to do, you think the cars look like shit now, wait until next year when that hideous Gen7 car comes out, all it's missing is big 22 inch chrome rims, and wouldn't surprise me if that's next.

  • @belowthemasondixisonline4098
    @belowthemasondixisonline4098 4 года назад +12

    It's great to watch "real stock car racing". The 90's was the best era for NASCAR. I use to be a die hard NASCAR fan for long time. I'd watch qualifying on Friday afternoons, Bush race on Saturday's and Winston Cup on Sunday's. Also had season tickets to Darlington. But those days are gone...

    • @pedrochevez2090
      @pedrochevez2090 2 года назад +1

      The 90s sure had the most distinguishable car schemes. Especially the late 90s. But to me, the 80s had the best and most intense racing in nascar history. The fastest and craziest matches were seen. There were no restrictor plates until the late 80s so you didn't see a lot of "big ones" happening due to several dozen cars bunched up together. Back then the fastest cars won.

      Exactly the same hit yes. This looked worse than Dale’s fatal wreck. I remember seeing this thinking the worse just like Ryan Newman’s recent Daytona Wreck. Glad Bill made it out alright. He was always my second favorite driver after 3.

    “It’s not good racing, y’all can talk about it all y’all want. It ain’t good racing” -Dale Sr.
    I think it’s interesting how long drivers have not wanted to race at super speed ways. Dale was the best at Dega and he still makes the comment. He thought he killed Rusty in 1993 and before that in 93 I believe, Stan Smith suffers the the same injury that Dale would die from. Every year we see driver saying stuff like “this is what the fans want” should we have been playing with their lives in such a way? Very interesting.

      Earnhardt always was a hypocrite. Bitched about something unless he benefited from it, then it was alright in his book. Same shit with him dumping other drivers to win. When it happened to him, he cried and whined like a bitch.

      @@user-gu1hl2kx2k I think he was dangerously competitive at times and caused many of these wrecks, but I don't think he ever wanted to see his competitors get injured. Once out of the car I'm sure hes pissed about losing but I I think he's also concerned for other drivers. At that point he doesn't know everyone's status.
