2006 DirecTV 500

[@Rocketj14]

hearing the name daniel hemeric in a race from 11 years ago is pretty crazy. amazing how things work out

[@WillHendersonTX]

1:37:56, NASCAR on Fox mentions a young kid, that kid was Daniel Hemric, driver of the RCR 8 car. man did NASCAR on Fox predicted Daniel Hemric's cup career 13 years in advance.

[@evanwilliams6406]

Hemric wouldn't have gotten to NASCAR without Tim Ladyga's help and Daniel has a good career ahead of him.

[@stormkelleh]

Dale Jr finishing 4th in a car that looks like that. 2021 and I just had a custom diecast commissioned of it and I can’t wait to display it forever.

[@matthewhamilton1547]

First NASCAR race I ever went to. Pretty Awesome

[@DerrickRG]

Jr had a hell of a car that day, wrecked and everything.

This was 4 days after i was born

[@vinnyparrillo]

I went to this race and bought 2 tickets from someone for $20 each and was sitting in the seat just as the race started and then a family comes up to me and my friend and asks if I have there laptop and to get out of his seats.... I started arguing with the guy and realized I bought tickets from someone who robed this guys car .... I had to sit in the first row and it was amazing that you couldn’t find a seat in the whole track I had to Sit squeezing between other people... learned quickly I’ll only buy tickets from the track!

[@zachhatten261]

How did they get in if you had their tickets?

[@downnice95]

2006 was the last good season of Nascar IMO. Yes we had the chase but 2004-06 it was still pretty good. Then in 2007 we got the COT and then it snowballed from there

That was a bad hit for Kenseth. Good thing safer barriers were around.

[@thisguy652]

Please keep posting Cup races from 2006

[@the_elmeister]

Matt Kenseth is lucky that there was safer barrier in his wreck that he had because this was just around when they installed the safer barriers at Martinsville. They took a little bit longer to install the safer barriers at the short tracks probably because the speed at short tracks isn’t as high compared to super speedway. If there was no safer barrier, Matt could’ve gotten hurt, especially if he had no brakes. Losing the brakes is probably the scariest way to crash because you’re almost guaranteed to have a hard lick in that circumstance. And given that he was charging right towards the front with 8 laps to go, that is just bad luck.

[@ShinySideUp18]

The last great season of NASCAR on FOX.

[@JTGKirby]

Bevo2455 boy did they miss alot of restarts too.

[@williamgrantham4481]

Until 2006 Pepsi 400 Daytona

[@thisguy652]

@@JTGKirby I just finished a watch through of the 2005 season and NBC was so bad about missing restarts. A few races into 2006 and FOX has been a little bad too

2021 NCS is 2 weeks off...

[@bernardoibarra5584]

go to settings click speed and put 0.5 and listen to a drunk fox crew

[@evanwilliams6406]

Similar to the 2007 Centurion Boats at the Glen, Jeff slips and can't make up time.

I really wanted Jeff Gordon to win, If he diddnt spin his tires and get in the speedy dry, he coukd have won.

[@vidEvWill]
