      The craziest part is Brock is truly the OG NASCAR RUclipsr, I've been following him since at least 2008. He's a true professional and master of his craft. I've said it before and I'll say it again, he deserves an opportunity with a big time NASCAR media player like Fox or NBC

      Sometimes it's not about view count and all that jazz. It's about soul and heart. Gimme Sir Brock anyday over another. He's a got a solid viewer base who appreciates his efforts and that's all you can ask for really. I won't be shocked if in the coming years he gets picked up by Nascar. I don't want him to become just another pandering for views RUclipsr. I want him to remain and retain his integrity.

    Another banger episode. Thank you, and have a Merry Christmas!
    Any of you who believe that NASCAR has "always been the safety leader in motorsports" need to wake up. That Mike Mulhern article at 10:28 is quite damning. Along with what is outlined in that article, other sanctioning bodies (like the FIA, IndyCar [under USAC, CART, and then IRL & Champ Car], and the NHRA) had travelling safety teams for DECADES before NASCAR finally saw the merits of having the same medics at every race in 2017.
    CART made Robby Gordon sit out the 1995 Marlboro 500 at Michigan after experiencing a concussion in practice. CART's policy was that a concussed driver was not allowed to drive for 7 days.
    The HANS device was adopted, but not yet mandated, by the NHRA in 1996. Several drivers in road racing, including CART, were wearing them before Brett Bodine started using one in 2000. The HANS was required by CART for all oval races in 2001, before mandating it for all races in 2002. F1 and the IRL did likewise.
    CART had mandated helmets for pit crewmen over 2 years before Bobby Burrell and two of his mates were hospitalized at Homestead in 2001.
    And A.J. Foyt may have been one of the last drivers in IndyCar who ever experienced racing back to the caution flag, if it ever was a thing. That has been absent for probably 60 years or more; long before NASCAR did away with it. I guarantee you that anyone who buys into the "always been the safety leader" narrative doesn't know much about racing outside of the NASCAR bubble.

    I'm now hoping for the rest of the series throughout 2024. Why NASCAR won't do this themselves baffles me, you have incredible abilities to write, narrate and storyboard the series. I just hope with NASCAR's recent crackown they leave you well enough alone

    To those that say Brock should be with Fox or NBC, I disagree. Brock is far better than networks deserve. What he needs is the equivalent compensation to that job, but remaining independent and free from the constraints and agendas that would come with a network job.
    Keep doing what you’re doing Brock. 👊

It takes me back to reliving those days again. I was on Jayski's site daily following along with everything, and 20+ years later i have forgotten a lot of it. Thank you for the hard work and efforts bringing this to us, it is appreciated.

I wish i could feel the way about modern nascar the way i did and do about this era. As a kid from another country far away from Nascar town in 90s the 2001 season still gives me chills. Miss the guys, miss the cars, miss the style of racing, and miss the culture. This was an important year in Americana. Bless and cheers big guy

      At this point in his career and given who he was driving for maybe. But Schrader had a stretch where he finished in the top 10 in points 6 times in 7 years and had 7 top 10 points finishes overall with a career high of 4th in 1994.
