Rest in peace - Charlie Daniels (1936-2020) I grew up at the dirt track in the middle of nowhere, WV. My father is race fan through and through, and when he saw an opportunity to stick me in a car, he didn't hesitate for a second. We didn't miss a race weekend for something like 7 years. Eventually, it just got too expensive, and we couldn't keep up anymore, so we hung it up. My dad shared this song with me, all those years ago. Naturally, it was our dirt track song. As I got a little older, I left for the military in the middle of January. The summer after I had left for boot camp, the Charlie Daniels Band decided to play at our local river festival (which never has any big name artists), and I was heartbroken that I wouldn't be there to see them. I learned about Mr. Daniels passing a few hours ago. I never did get to make it to a show, and that's one of the biggest regrets I'll ever have. But, this song is going to live on forever in the heart of that little 6 year old, dirt-slinging kid. Checkered flags, Turbo Blue, and concession stand hot dogs. Thank you to The Charlie Daniels Band, for giving me something to attach those memories to. And even though he'll never read this, Thanks to my Dad, my once and forever crew chief.
Amen...Here's to Charlie Daniels, whose music I grew up on and loved, good ole dirt tracks in the middle of nowhere in WV (Elkins Motor Speedway) on a Saturday night, and the horrible concession stand food we ate when we could afford it, and to the beer we would carry in in our coolers (which we sat on) before everything got way too PC.
Dear Sir your story about your dad Had me in tears Sir l know you will See Him Again.l have a brother who died before l was born.lt is my prayer not only to see my dear Dad & Mom but to know my Little Bother who died at 3 1/2 yrs old. I liket to Believe they see the good things but not anything that would Hurt them.We are told that there's No Tears No Fears No Sorrow ONLY THE LOVE OF OUR🙏🙏 BLESSED LORD JESUS & HIS FATHER OUR LORD.AMEN🙏🙏
Charlie Daniels is one of Tennessees most beloved men and he loved us as he wanted to be buried here rather than his home state NC. I met him many times because he was very involved with my university. I bought his book and he signed it and gave me some very inspirational words. he died a few months later... I didnt grow up with much but i did have Charlies music and i dont think id be the man i am today without it.
My grandfather was full blood Little Axe indian and ran moonshine from Arkansas to Oklahoma....dude could fight and drink like the devil himself....Miss him every damn day...EVERY DAMN DAY......
whats baffles me is how people dont think arkansas as country when they here the accent of a arkansas country boy they guess every where but arkansas im like how the hell and yes sorry about your loss
I've always been a Charlie Daniels fan. I actually finally seen him play last year in Independence Missouri. The best show I've ever seen. Thank you Charlie for a million memories as a young man growing up in the south and thank you for one great memory a year ago in Independence Missouri. R.I.P Charlie Daniels.
this movie and song has been with me since I could stand and walk. when I was 18 my father and built a late model stock with a 383 stroker making around 500 hp @ 7400rpm. just the other day I rolled it out the shop pulled front clip and took it to the streets of laytonville, Ca. small mountain town in northern California. some people loved it some were bitches and didn't appreciate American muscle. this song has been in my roots since o was a little boy. good stuff
Art is in the eye of the beholder or ear from good music or smooth purring engine to a good meal. I lovd a purring engine but at times to some like loud music it can seem out of place
Charlie Daniels, cars that you could work on without a computer, stick shifts were common, families stayed together, everyone had a job and there was no welfare, everyone had a sense of humor, no internet/smartphones... sigh, I need a time machine. I only need it one-way, though.
@@Jeffgordonfan24hesthegoat This. I used to go to a Boys' Club in the 70's. We were all from 8 to 12, black, white, yellow, purple, and green. We all got along. There were no fights. Everyone played games and we had lunches of bologna sandwiches and PB & J's. We all got along because no one told us that we were different! Kids don't know any better until they're told..
My grandfather told me stories of "Ridge Runners" hauling moonshine, in hopped-up Mercury's and out-running "them dang-revenuers", saw this video and song and brought back memories.
One of the best films and openings ever!. Gave me goosebumps when he starts changing gear and that V8 at the end is awesome. Thanks for putting this on.
@@fireball1322 saw an interview with an old moonshiner a while back. He said if it was a county guy they could just flat outrun them because the county guys mostly had straight 6s . State or fed, it came down to who could drive better because they had the same v8s
@@milkhauler081 watch junior Johnson's video here on youtube. Each moonshiner worked with what they had , some had better engines and some had the best engines. The caddillac V8* was popular in the old days IIRC, as it was the biggest c.i. wise. Having a switch to turn off the moonshiner car's taillights, and additional lighting for headlights were two more moonshiner tricks. FWIW,/as most know, moonshining is how "hotrodding" /swapping the "Big Three"production engines began, then shortly after NASCAR began, and was ultimately responsible for the 60s and 70s muscle cars later on.
This is one of the classic movies that show history, pride, and love of our beloved Dixieland. I am from North Carolina and come from a moon shining family. Certain people are trying to take away our history because of their own racism and ignorance. Deo Vendice!!!
It don't matter where you're from, southern Texas to northern Wisconsin once the roar of V8 gets in you're bones that shit ain't going no where......Lex Talionis!!!!
It was a recycled sound from the movie “Bullit” 1968 the mustang in that movie had the same sound and it was a 390. Not trying to be a know it all just a fan of these old movies and I recognize all of the movie car sounds.
I can here my daddy. Saying girl you better stand on it when I was learning to drive. This sing always brings back the memories of my daddy teaching me. And he planned this in the truck when I was learning to drive stick. 3 on the tree. My husband says that's why you got the lead foot. And my husband. Drives truck. I grew up in the south. I love this part of the movie.
That reminds me of my Grandaddy. He and my Father had a Garage and they built cars for who ever paid. The Moonshiners usually paid the most but the Sherriff also paid them good too . My moms Dad was the Sherriff of Paulding County Ga, That Garage was where my Mom and Dad met. My Daddy went on to build Engines for Stock car racing, then IMSA, and SCCA racing as well as Drag cars and race boats, he worked for Paul Newman when I was a kid. Crazy but that's where I'm from...if it wasn't for the competition between the Moonshiners and the he Law I might not have been born!
My dad got my into racing and this song. He could drive a car like the devil himself . The old man couldnt be out drove. He told me when I was 15 it's in your blood too son. Now I'm in Hollywood doing stunts for different studios lmao
RIP - We will miss you. Too many have left us recently. Can't you just picture Charlie driving that truck!!!! Yes there is one great party going on in heaven and yes we will always have one up there to fight the devil.
The name is "Stroker Ace" and going back to the early movie days of Burt Reynolds it is basically a kid from moonshine days turned racecar driver. You can still find it in the walmart discount bin or ebay. I give it two thumbs up.
I grew up running white lighting we done it in a 66 ltd with larger leaf springs inthe rear we put a 427 tunnel ram and 4 speed we still got the car and still runs great 427 tunnelram was a special engine for nascar. we also had it head work done. we had dynoed back in 1992 it has got 627 hp to the rear wheels
Not to mention Neil Bonnet,Harry Gant, Terry Labonte,Benny Parsons,Kyle Petty, Tim Richmond, Ricky Rudd, and Cale Yarborough... Like all the top drivers of the 80's and 90's...
Ahhh Charlie Daniels, the first Country rap artest lol! Love his music, along with Willie Nelson, Hank Williams Jr, and Travis Tritt. The last of a dying breed of true country music artists.
Believe it or not, I seen this movie for the 1st time a month ago and out of all his movies I cant believe I hadnt seen it but anyways, the scene next after this one was so damn funny with the wheel missing. Gomer is a nut too. lol
I am 63 I was around when all the old hot rods and shine drivers roamed the earth. I had a lot of them cars and truck. I grew up on my daddy's used car lot in SC, learned to work on everything. I became a professional transmission rebuilder, I just retired but I ain't dead yet. working on a 53 ford now,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Not a Hollywood Blockbuster but it's a fun, nostalgic 1980's movie. It's got two of the most beautiful people of that time in Burt Reynolds and his gorgeous wife Lonnie Anderson. For some silly laughs It's worth the watch. 😎
@MWM1978 Neil Bonnett, Dale Earnhardt, Benny Parsons, and Tim Richmond all left before their time. But Harry, Terry, Kyle, Ricky, and Cale are all still doing their thing. In fact you'll see Terry Labonte start today's Daytona 500!
I learned how to drive in an old moonshine car a 57 Ford fairlane with a 56 Ford Thunderbird y block and a four speed it even had dual tanks in it I was only 8
there was lots of moonshine/ bootlegging round here in the late 40s, best one was a custom cutter hauling it down from KS to OK pumped in Combine tires claimed he made $5,000 and never moved a combine rained every day they was there, also guys would bring it down from NE into KS in jugs under truck loads of field corn
this is a classic 70's movie.....three things make this movie......burt reynolds, fast cars and hot women.......loni anderson back in the day was just smokin......

Then your grandfather and mine were probably buddies, as my gramps was a big time moonshine runner from Arkansas.

I saw him in a USO show in Guantanamo Bay Cuba in 1988.

I'm pulling my grandads '34 Ford out of storage in a few months. Taking it with me when I move back to the country.
To hell with them

Best part you boys better hold on, I'm going to have to stand on it. Loved it when I was small and still do.
Wouldn't be the same movie without that one line
YOU TOOK THE WORDS OUTTA MY MOUTH LOL.Love that foot and shifter work, slammin those gears.
O u damn right.Same here
Scared the crap outta my lil bro and his buddy years ago when we blasted down a twisty dirt road with those words.
double clutch
My grandfather told me stories of "Ridge Runners" hauling moonshine, in hopped-up Mercury's and out-running "them dang-revenuers", saw this video and song and brought back memories.
You boys better hold on because I'm gonna have to stand on it. Giddy-up.
Dad running shine! Old Charlie Daniels, good old days and much better days!
Stroker Ace....... What A GOOD MOVIE............ used to rent this from the local VCR rental place back in the 80's GOD BLESS THE SOUTH!
amen southern by the grace of god
Let them Yankees say what they want about the south, but nobody retires and moves up north
RIP Burt Reynolds
Rip he was oe off a kind
RIP Charlie Daniels
Excellent song, excellent movie. I think Stroker Ace was the movie that really pulled me into watching Nascar too.
One of the best films and openings ever!. Gave me goosebumps when he starts changing gear and that V8 at the end is awesome. Thanks for putting this on.
That ol boy can shift bet he got a flathead v8 with an extra carb on it
in them days that would Make smokey whine.
Likely a cadillac v8 under the hood. ask JJ.

+Edsel Ford Amen to that, nothin like a V8 roar!
Wolf Cratch i live in Kentucky
Nothing better sounded then an v8 what sounds better is a cat v8 big diesel engine when you let the jakes roar
That car sounds better than most cars today
Ford flat head V8 just singing going through the gear box! What a great sound
That truck sounds better and healthier then most cars now
William Wong dang right
1937 ford
William Wong nothing like the sound of a flathead V8
William Wong man I hate new cars
It's cuz it doesn't have shit like catalytic converters or small 4 banger engines like new cars. That's the sound of horsepower
This is one of my favorite songs by him I even met him and the key board player as well Charlie Daniels was very nice
LOVE the Sound of that Old Truck.
Tater 357 nothing like the sound of a Ford flathead V8
After the LOVINGLY I
Song hacker the loving song After the Lovin
It was a recycled sound from the movie “Bullit” 1968 the mustang in that movie had the same sound and it was a 390. Not trying to be a know it all just a fan of these old movies and I recognize all of the movie car sounds.
In this instance, it was just "sound effects", but I agree. Nothing sounds like a Ford Falthead V-8!
Firefighter#1 it was a gt40 sound
Rest In Peace, Mr. Daniels. Thankful you knew the Lord to enter into peace, but you are missed here......
This was an awesome era in NASCAR. Still remember "Burt and Hal's Skoal Bandit" Chevy out there. Beautiful race car!
RIP Charlie you and your music will be missed
I am from Madison county north Carolina and my family made shine for years missing you grandfather
Hello from nc!
Cool movie n great song.
Movies sure aren't the same anymore. One of my favorite scenes in the whole movie
I can here my daddy. Saying girl you better stand on it when I was learning to drive. This sing always brings back the memories of my daddy teaching me.

RIP - We will miss you. Too many have left us recently. Can't you just picture Charlie driving that truck!!!! Yes there is one great party going on in heaven and yes we will always have one up there to fight the devil.
Each week when I roll out to the local dirt track this is one song I got to listen on way to the track!

You can still find it in the walmart discount bin or ebay. I give it two thumbs up.

Does Don't It. 👍

And of course we can not forget about Charlie Daniels for writing the awesome theme song.
"You boys better hang on, I'm gonna have to stand on it" the inspiration for Schneider's movie 😁
My Buddies in the Air Force Renamed me Stroker Ace. Could make a Duce and a Half "dance across the mud"
whoa high praise... my high school debate partner went to AFA and never heard from him again...
Not to mention Neil Bonnet,Harry Gant, Terry Labonte,Benny Parsons,Kyle Petty, Tim Richmond, Ricky Rudd, and Cale Yarborough... Like all the top drivers of the 80's and 90's...
Love this movie...lived harry Gant saying oh hell here we go again
Man that guy can shift like it is second nature for him.
07/06/2020 RIP Mr Daniels... meeting with you in 2004 left a lasting impression of the truly humble and incredibly talented individual you were.
you boys better hold on cause I'm gonna hafta stand on it!
I also give it two thumbs up and must say this is a VERY under rated movie!
now that shifting was THE best part of this movie!!
Ahhh Charlie Daniels, the first Country rap artest lol! Love his music, along with Willie Nelson, Hank Williams Jr, and Travis Tritt. The last of a dying breed of true country music artists.

Not a Hollywood Blockbuster but it's a fun, nostalgic 1980's movie. It's got two of the most beautiful people of that time in Burt Reynolds and his gorgeous wife Lonnie Anderson. For some silly laughs It's worth the watch. 😎
Back when bootlegging was fun! They made those horses run!
That old boy going them gears working the clutch with has peddle it's a lost art
Another great Burt Reynolds movie
The vehicle I like the most out of ALL his movies is the Brown Ford LTD with the 429 in Gator. That car has the UMMFT
it was my favorite as well the car sounded good and is one of the most underrated car stars of movies
73' White lightning very good movie.
Yellows
idk... W.W. had a nice olds.

Love this song. CHarlie daniels is a country icon. Puts on a KICK ASS show!!!!
Great song to crank up....also a great classic movie
I had a buddy that had a 45 Ford Pick up I recall being in it @ 90 mph when he shifted into 4th gear Damn it would run
Omg I love that Ford, sounds freaking amazing
I approve of this
This is more than Family, Grandpaw did a year in the pen for running shine". Not just a movie to me.
Well that's all I needed 2 know thank you
Just a great song for us older dirt track racers who just love building old small block ford and Chevy engine's
This song gives me a heavy foot when I'm driving
Shaun Gapinski This, and “Eastbound and Down” 👍🏼
I just be clicking on old videos on my recommended and I see this..😂
I remember dad callin us in when this movie came on. We would crank up the volume during this part on the console tv.
This is a great movie and I watched when I found out that Burt Reynolds passed away and when Charlie Daniels passed away
This movie is what it me into racing and is how I learned how to drive stick... That was at least 10 years ago, still love it!
This is the scene that really got me interested racing/cannonballrun songs
Love this Movie and Song!!
Rest in Peace "Stroker" I hope you will Stand on it when your racin in the big track in the sky.
wish i could find this movie looks like one hell of a movie especially with burt reynolds and dale sr
And Tim Richmond, and Neil Bonnett, Kyle Petty and a few more
first 6 seconds of this video are awesome, & then it just gets better & better from there.
total classic,One of the best racing movies beside Days Of Thunder
It's better than Days of Thunder.
Love this movie to this day 😍
They really hung the names of the drivers up there for a looooong time. You don't see that anymore.
If I lived back then I would have shined it up too.
i actually meet Charlie daniels in person nice guy
We have the same model truck used in this scene it was owned by my great grandfather. He was a moonshine runner during probation. Can do 250 flat out.
For the "rum runners" of the time who became the beginnings of NASCAR this was a daily routine.
@MWM1978 Neil Bonnett, Dale Earnhardt, Benny Parsons, and Tim Richmond all left before their time. But Harry, Terry, Kyle, Ricky, and Cale are all still doing their thing. In fact you'll see Terry Labonte start today's Daytona 500!
Makes me want to watch the movie again
did anyone notice the part about hitting the wall and breaking your neck it happened in 01 to the GREATEST driver EVER
Gotta love the way the old moonshiners laid it down to get the job done!
Better than that pop county shit
I learned how to drive in an old moonshine car a 57 Ford fairlane with a 56 Ford Thunderbird y block and a four speed it even had dual tanks in it I was only 8
there was lots of moonshine/ bootlegging round here in the late 40s, best one was a custom cutter hauling it down from KS to OK pumped in Combine tires claimed he made $5,000 and never moved a combine rained every day they was there, also guys would bring it down from NE into KS in jugs under truck loads of field corn
Back in the day we used chicken trucks to haul shine from louisiana to virginia
I learned in a 32 ford roadster with a flat head v8 it was my great grandpa car when he ran shine
@@devinstroud5221 Cue "Kentucky Moonrunner" by Cledus Maggard
@@Wildfire86872 yep
Great song and that is great foot work first few seconds.
Tim N sum bitch
One of my all time favorite movies!
this is a classic 70's movie.....three things make this movie......burt reynolds, fast cars and hot women.......loni anderson back in the day was just smokin......
I Really miss the 80's!!!!;)
That old flathead ford sounded really good as he was going thru the gear box-vroom
@gixxerracin ...AMEN!!!!!! This movie is full of great one-liners.........
I KNOW NU-THING...I AM MERELY THE MESSENGER.
That's some real fancy foot work
Why can't we make movies like this anymore?
Gavin Pickens
yep
Gavin Pickens just this first scene alone would register a few hundred complaints
This should be the official music video.
