10:22 the man that almost killed this sport

[@jebediahgentry7029]

Yeah I wonder how messed up on oxys he was in that interview

[@Kin_Ton_Ti]

Almost?

10:22 WORST THING TO EVER HAPPEN TO NASCAR

[@Jhrs1257]

Little did they know, Brian France would single-handedly destroy NASCAR as well as getting arrested for DUI

[@lshank6494]

This was my first ever in person nascar race. I was 8 years old. I was in turn 2. Ill never forget Joe wrecking and catching fire in the grass between 1 and 2. First wreck I ever saw in person.

[@williamf.rosnelljr.2004]

I was there too. He blew a tire, sounded like a shotgun blast.

[@pandaexpress7326]

Jeremy had one of the best runs of the season at the end of the year. Newman was the thorn in his side the last 12 races

[@CH-fk5tk]

Start of Brian France’s leadership ....

[@wfrncsu012]

I'm sure it helped the case, but looking at Jayski, it says Dover didn't get SAFER barriers until the 2004/2005 seasons, one of the last tracks to get them. Surprising since some of the hardest crashes happen in Dover.

[@badbooking3221]

Dover definitely didn't have one of the biggest operating budgets back then or now.

2:02:15 slide job how ironic

[@TheMW2informer]

1:06:15 don't really ever see that anymore

[@sametozkan9175]

Jeremy Mayfield lost his win to his old car

[@franklinlane1357]

Bill France Sr and Jr Did everything they could to build the sport of NASCAR Racing. Brian France did everything to destroy it.

[@thelegendchrisb]

Matt Kenseth left this race with a 436 point lead in the standings, the largest since Dale Earnhardt had a 444 point lead at the end of the 1994 season

[@SUPEREEVEEMASTER]

I was fine with the elimination of racing back to the caution because it was too risky and dangerous. However, I thought and still think the lucky dog/free pass wasn't necessary. I hold the belief that if you want your lap(s) back you need to earn it passing the leader under the green flag. Compared to many of NASCAR's later gimmicky, unnecessary rule changes the lucky dog looks mild today but I still don't like it.

[@daltin92]

I was there with my mom up between turns 1&2 the June race in 04 and as soon as Jeff got wrecked in that multi car pileup, Both of us were pulling for Smoke who finished 2nd to Mark Martin.

[@josephgabello3214]

The first of Dale jr's concussions

[@adblueranger6098]

Nah. 2002 Fontana crash with Harvick was earlier than this.

[@badbooking3221]

@@adblueranger6098 That flip at Daytona in 1998 in the Busch series was one of the first acknowledged concussions Junior received in his career.

[@RichieWilliams97]

Jeremy should’ve tried to pass him up top

[@KyleHaleInTheCut]

Was pulling hard for Mayfield here

[@zachcatanzareti]

Do you have the 2003 Brickyard400??

[@wfrncsu012]

@tartass342 I used to, but I had to tape it over, so I don't have it.
