I'm a 31 year old boy, but these were my days. Everyone was younger back then. The world was a better place. There was no facebook and twitter. 2001 was a good year. Take me back Jesus.

[@ChromeXuGames]

Honestly, I was born in 1998 and wish I grew up in my teen years in the early 2000s.

[@osurocks24]

TheEgg185 This was in 2002. But goodness, 2001 was a phonemnal year. My favorite year of all time for me.

[@gswizzy17]

I was born in 2006 and all I know about 2001 was dale earnhardt dying, 9/11, and my parents getting married

[@Weezy10580]

It’s even worse now. This world sucks absolute D

[@pens87668]

That intro>>>> Man I miss those days. Both races here in 2002 were excellent. Now this track can't even break 30k for the Spring Race. Old Bristol>>>>

Awesome upload. Many thanks.

[@fogalicious2644]

Of course Robby Gordon would jump the start

[@budamania1989]

Good race to watch thanks

[@shawnkendrick69]

i was there and then the 2002 night race where gordon won his last race at bristol

[@MrBreeze18]

Me too. The only two Bristol races I made it to.

[@scottmoody7052]

This was my first race. I have been to almost every race at bristol since. Missed the year when they wouldn't let us in for covid

[@mattkowal90]

They had fans (albeit limited capacity), but I'm guessing you decided to forego the trip. Did you go back in 2021 and ever since? The only tracks that I've been to are Pocono, Nazareth, and Dover. I moved from the Northeast to Myrtle Beach last year, and Darlington is only 70 miles away from me.

[@scottmoody7052]

@Matthew Kowal no the one race they won't let anyone in and sold no tickets. I live near the track

[@DillonMurway]

My god I remember this race.

[@AustinDickerson2001Tiger]

Back when Bristol Motor Speedway was fast paced.

[@jamex98]

this is kinda UFC 500 oval cage version between Kurt Busch vs Jimmy Spencer...lol what a battle

[@jasonrobbins7143]

[@ojtoothpaste2240]

Why did tony get replaced by Todd bodine ? Lap 363

[@evanwilliams6406]

Stewart had a hard crash at Darlington the previous week and was still in pain from it.

[@SwineBrothers]

at least robby got into nascar through hard work, he didn't have his daddy's money behind him...plus robby's one of the greatest races of this modern day, racing and winning in everything from nascar to indycar to offroad trucks...dale jr. coasted by on okay talent and a name

[@MrMW2nd]

All those races Robby Gordon won. Unforgettable lmao

[@prevost8686]

If you look at Jr.’s early career it was obvious he had exceptional talent. Three major crash related concussions in a row scrambled his brain for good. The only difference between him and his dad was the fact that Sr. escaped any serious head injuries until very late in his career. Robby Gordon was a great off road driver but a lousy NASCAR driver.

[@cdf360]

you're a delusional moron if you think Junior got in solely on name recognition. If that was the case, Kerry would've been in the cup series too, but he wasn't. You're just a slack jawed mouth breather, plain and simple

[@SwineBrothers]

@@cdf360 He did start a cup race, And had daddy lived, he probably would have had a free ride.

[@cdf360]

@@SwineBrothers the man had 26 wins and 260 top 10s and you’re sitting here acting like he’s Danica Patrick. Give me a break

man they destroyed this track

[@User-nu6km]

homestead was the shit before they banked it

[@AlonsoRules]

Homestead has been a joke since the day it was built

[@forrestrobbins3900]

Standard Nascar practice. Anything that creates revenue, destroy it

[@FeartheCyr611]

Destroyed it with dirt! Yep

Junior’s Pit Strategy was Flawed in this race. I would have stayed out. But anyways!

[@cykablyatman6242]

On sunday, guess who will be there? GOLDBERG!

[@spencerb311]

This is NASCAR at its absolute peak, except for the fact that Jeff crashed 😞

[@shawnkendrick69]

and the track is destroyed they need to go back to this race or another configiration just not progressive banking its allright but no bump and run anymore its dive slide infront slow the field down just cant get nowhere so i agree

[@joshawott331]

Stewart just about wrecked everyone trying to get to the lead 😂

[@williamgrantham4481]

Kurt Busch Wins

[@coyboybc]

Micheal Waltrip as the worse driver in NASCAR …quoted by Greg Biffle He was great a wrecking a car

[@thegreatcarraway]

I'm going to be honest when Dave Blaney crashed I yelled out loud, "NOOOO DAVE! PROTECT YOUR TESTICLES! YOU HAVE GOOD GENES!"
