      and he is the greatest crew chief in the history of the sport when it comes to raw stats. wins, t5s, 10s, and cups. by a long shot. i'm sure not all those were solely richard's.

      I agree. I think he is a large part of why Petty Enterprises was so successful. He is almost too humble..Take the credit you deserve sir.

    The older generation is a walking history book and we should all be fortunate enough to hear their stories because they are fading fast and with them our history. What a true blessing and privilege it is for me to hear this man describe his life, a different time but all the same struggles.

    Dale is 85 yo and his memory is still pretty good. When he was younger he was a BIG strong and tough man and a real nice guy. The death of Adam Petty was real hard on him. I hear he was like a second Dad to Adam. They don't make em like that any longer.

    Great video, I'm 63 years old, and I've liked Richard Petty since I was around 8 years old, my all time favorite stock car driver. While growing up, several things were synonymous for me in stock car racing, (1)Richard Petty, (2) 426 Hemi's, (3) Mopar, and (4) STP racing. Long live the King.

    I've visited the Petty Museum and was amazed by how much history has been saved there, or at least reproduced. My granddaughters colored a picture of the Cars movie Strip Weathers Superbird, left them with the lady behind the counter along with our address. Richard signed both pictures and sent them to us, and I had them framed for the girls. I cannot adequately describe how much I have enjoyed watching your history videos- I just got started with the North Wilkesboro, Rockingham and now Petty Enterprises videos, can't wait to go down the rabbit hole even further!

    I absolutely LOVE these shop tour videos. This Petty Enterprises facility may not look like much compared to today's modern mega shops like you'll find at Hendrick Motorsports, Roush Racing or Joe Gibbs, but in its heyday, Petty Enterprises was a monster facility that dwarfed the competition. It is also interesting to see how the Petty shops grew and expanded over time. Most of the present day big operations are in one enormous single building, divided into multiple departments for specialty work. Petty's shop started as a shed and grew into numerous separate buildings over a 40 year period that kind of became their own specialty areas. Yet despite the large overall size. the Petty Enterprises shop still maintains that family business feel, whereas today's shops are more like a corporate fueled arms race that are as much geared toward keeping up with the Joneses as they are being functional facilities for building and maintaining race cars. The older shops are more spartan without as much fluff. As a blue collar guy, I find those more appealing and interesting.

My grandpa has a stand alone Garage (Glorified shed) that a smell will catch my attention and boom there I am Playing in the dirt with hot wheels while he was fixing something on a car. Visting older shops like that always have the history in the present and that homely feel

  • @BSNFabricating
    @BSNFabricating 2 года назад +8

    This is what it's all about. The Pettys (including Dale Inman) earned everything they got, and even though they had a "little bit" of success, they never forgot where they came from, and that's why I've always been able to relate to them so much. As the series grew, their shops had to grow to make it all work, but the family was always at the core of it all.

    • @reginaldhall6871
      @reginaldhall6871 2 года назад +2

    • @tomthomson9354
      @tomthomson9354 2 года назад +3

      Listen to interviews with Richard, Dale, and Kyle, they always downplay their accomplishments. It has never been “I did this” or “I won that” and it has always been about the team and the fans.

  • @waynekaminski5438
    @waynekaminski5438 2 года назад +1

    Inman's 8 Championships aren't mentioned often enough today. Dale had it correct the 1st time when he said "We". Richard Petty wouldve been successful but he wouldn't have won 200 races & 7 championships without Dale Inman as crew chief. Inman, Richard, & Maurice were the perfect combination.

    I had a 1969 Dodge Charger with a 383 4speed in it that I would have loved to have gotten you under the hood of for an afternoon!
    Like this video says you are the only crew chief with 8 championships, stop selling yourself short. It took everyone to make the team to achieve everything that you all did as a team. Thank you fir all the memories.

    My family and I visited the Museum in 1992 before the Mountain Dew Southern 500 at Darlington. We met everyone that day. Richard, Dale, Lynda, etc. Lee was hitting golf balls in the yard next door. It was one of the coolest days ever. I still have my Fan Apperception tour Handout card signed by Richard, Lynda and Dale. Priceless to me. Love your videos.

    Between your videos and my travel to NC for work I am now finding myself enthralled with NASCAR. It's really bring back some good memories to watching the CUP races on Sundays with my Dad, I wish I would have stayed a fan earlier but man is this content bringing me back. Thanks Mitchell and Logan!

    I vistited the Petty Museum back in 2001 , it was the first building on the right as you came into the driveway . It was more like a large 2 stall garage , and I believe Richards mom still lived in the house . If memory serves me right , there was a row of single stall garages out back . I have pictures of the inside .The door faced the driveway and as I was leaving , an older lady was driving by noticed me , gave me a big smile and waved , I never did know who it was .

    Watching Dale's limp become more and more pronounced, he was taking deeper and deeper breath's and puff'n more and more as he led Mitchell and Logan through the buildings only goes to show how much it took out of his old, worn out body. BUT he was a trooper and continued on. Mostly because it brought back soooooo many years chalk full of memories,, he retrieved sooooo many snippits, albeit; 'movies in his mind' (my ol Grandma would call her memories that) of yesteryear and it was fun but it did take a toll on his body. We know the kids thanked him for the time he spent with them but perhaps it would take an elder like me (I'm 75) to notice he became more and more 'a hurt'n unit' as time went along.
