I’m surprised that Kasey Kahne’s old Allstate commercials aren’t talked about as much as other Nascar commercials. They were always funny to me and him always getting tormented in them made me sympathize with him and become one of my favorite drivers.

I like the second wave of gen 4 cars that bridged the gap between the boxy Thunderbirds and Luminas and the common body template cars from the mid-2000s that were very tin can like in nature, so about 1995 to 2002. I, for one, love the jellybean Taurus that people love to hate.

I remember the NASCAR cafe in Pigeon Forge, TN. It was next to the big big NASCAR Speedpark Go Kart track. If it was your birthday the waitress would bring a mic and have you do the "Gentleman Start Your Engines!". The cars on the wall had tires that would start turning and you could hear the engines over the speaker system.

Back in the day I was able to go to Target, Kmart, qnd even Rid Aid and stumble upon some Winner Circle merch circa 2007-10 from 1:64 scale to even 1:24 scale adorn the die-cast section. But with the authentics I only see like 6 die-cast and 2-3 haulers at my local Target/Walmart. And I don't want to deal with a high cost item banged up in the mail from what I've heard from people ordering 1:24s online.

But when FOX Sports killed SPEED on 8/17/2013, honestly TV channels treated us race fans like junk. Wasn't the same. I feel bad for anyone that never had a chance to watch SPEED. I know SPEED will never come back, but there will never ever be another Auto Racing channel like SPEED!

I think the 93-01 era was NASCAR’s zenith. It stunned the sports world when SI declared Nascar as “America’s hottest sport” on its cover in July of 95. And the classic ESPN crew of Bob, Benny, and Ned and (to a lesser degree) the TNN team of Eli and Buddy were so much better than what came with the new TV deal of 2001.

Nascar was a literal STAPLE family get-together on the weekends because I knew, as a kid in the early 2000s, that I would be getting PIZZA HUT delivered to the house for race day. ❤ Fun fact I love sharing: My mom, who lived down in Hueytown, AL back in the early 80s-90s, She grew up with Davey Allison and remained his best friend when he was in Nascar. My mom would babysit his kids (Robbie and Krista) when Davey would go racing on the weekends. My mom was 22 when she started babysitting Krista in 1989-90 and would continue the tradition into 1991 when Robbie was born. Of course, they were just babies and obviously wouldn't remember but my mom absolutely LOVED them. Davey also gave my mom his #28 Havoline racing jacket that he wore during races, which can still be worn as a regular jacket because they were not fireproof jackets at the time as well as different signed pictures, a #28 Havoline die-cast model car and just a TON of memorabilia that she still has to this very day. (Of course, She doesn't wear the jacket) A funny fact: My step-dad wanted me to help him clean out the closet one day and came across the jacket and memorabilia and was going to put it all in a yard sale and my mom saw him and literally threatened to divorce him if he sells any of that stuff. If i remember correctly, they fought for DAYS about him trying to sell it and she wouldn't budge. I guess he gave up because they're still married. 🙄 Just thought I would share such a cool experience since this is a nostalgia video.

One of the most nostalgic things for me growing up in the early 2000s was nascar drivers as personalities, the commercials were one thing but a lot of the drivers today feel kinda cookie cutter but part of that I think is because of how young most of the drivers are and how hard nascar can come down of a driver if they say something even slightly against nascar

Their contracts with the sponsors and teams force them to be cookie cutter and have no personality. They have to go through 5 minutes of thanking sponsors and how the Taco Bell McDonald’s Amazon prime plus Dr Pepper Chevy ran great before they talk about the actual race which doesn’t have much personality in itself. It’s unfortunate.

The older you get the more you think back on those times of found memories and it just doesn’t feel like it used to. Everything changes. It’s not just NASCAR. As younger generations get older so do the comments of I miss when NASCAR was like, but just further forward in time.

The camera flashes got to me too. Going back to the 90s, the flahses left streaks too. Ironically, its showing overly simplistic cameras or people not understanring how a camera works. The flash may have been going off in sport or night mode so that the camera would use different settings to properly expose the picture. The flash doesnt have an effect that far away, unless youre getting a picture of the person in front of you.

In the summer of 2001, my grandma and aunt took my sister, one cousin, and me to Vegas for a vacation. We went to the NASCAR Café when they had a tribute for Dale Earnhardt. Having watched that year's Daytona 500 live on TV, I did my best as a teen boy to not be seen crying as I passed by either a replica or a donated model of the black #3 to write my name and whatever message on that wall. When we had lunch there, they served drinks in jugs shaped like the gas cans, just black instead of red with the café logo on it, and a big plastic straw. It even had an arcade with a few different NASCAR games; I could've spent the whole trip there like a bull in a China shop. Fast forward to the end of 2022, and my brothers have me drive them to Vegas on NYE Weekend for a 49ers/Raiders game. Before the trip, we found out the NASCAR Café had been closed for over a decade, and my heart sank. Worst still, I couldn't remember where it was to see what had taken its place......

I'm old school enough to remember NASCAR over here on Eurosport, along with CART at night. I remember the 99 Bristol night race got put on the front page of the Teletext/Ceefax sports pages. The front page of the sports section. Not motorsport. Not F1 where it sometimes got put. THe front page of the whole sport section, and it explaining Dale spun Terry, got booed. I remember Eurosport up until the late 90s showing Winston Cup as it was then, I remember staying up till 10-11 at night to watch that CART and then they'd do a Monday Motorsport magazine show and show highlights of the week's racing (well bar F1 for reasons), and always showed the NASCAR highlights. You had Motors TV with their Busch broadcasts in the 2000s as well as Atlantics, you had stuff from Speed that was either live, or as live the next day, got to see the whole season and I forget which year it was but they did the whole season. NASN with the 2004 Cup season too and showing the pre race/start for free before switching paywall as well. All of the above used the US feeds, and there's a clip from Eurosport for Rusty's 93 Talladega crash. I'd recognize that NASCAR WINSTON CUP box in the top right of the shot anywhere, that's how Eurosport let you know what you were watching. Point is, all of the above got me into NASCAR as well as being an Indycar fan already and picking up a bundle with NR2 in it for some dirt cheap price in one of those 4 games in one bundles you got back in the day as well. I put more hours into NR2 and the demo of NR3 than I care to admita

I love when I was younger I would always go the cereal just to see the driver and their cars. Same day went to auto shop and spotted 1:64 cars laid out, I thought to myself that I can take all of them and no one would notice what a goof idea.

When I was a kid and we first got dial up internet, the first thing I did was look for pictures of nascar race cars. That’s crazy about the rug cuz I had 2 and I remember flipping them over and drawing race tracks to race my cars on.

Seeing all of this really brought back a lot of good memories, but man it also hits hard to think that the 2014 season that started with Dale Jr winning his second 500 and the return of the 3 car is going on 10 years already. Time really flies.

Chris Myers voice was one of the most iconic things about NASCAR on FOX

The UPS “drive the big brown truck” commercials with Dale Jarrett are by far the most nostalgic for me.

The flashing cameras are what made nascar and all sports / big events feel special in the 2000s. Such a special time

Well in 20 years the current days of nascar will have this feel for you. Great to see fans your age. Get tired of people saying the sport died when Dale died. It’s changed a lot but still think it’s just as great and even better in terms of diversity these days. Id never believe it if you told me in 2005 a cup field would have the people in it that it did at Indy last Sunday

I remember! My first television nascar race..it was on fox sports during the COT era, my grandpa watched it with me, even though he was more of a soccer person (don't worry he is alive), i used to watch Monster Jam before BKT during breakfast since it was night at the US and morning here in Brazil, i watched it a lot, good times good times..

I miss the old funny Nascar commercials. I still have them on vhs. I didn't have cable back then, so my grandpa recorded them for me and I would make my own highlight tapes. I think I have 8 VHS tapes full of close finishes, big wrecks,burnouts , championship celebrations and of course funny commercials
