Bill Elliott- First Cut

[@PeterDunbar]

Bill is will always be the GOAT. Chase’s success shows he’s also a great dad... well grounded humble young man. Love this man, and there will never be another Awesome Bill

[@mikeye9147]

Bill is my cousin even though I've never met him personally. I sent him a letter when I was in fourth grade as a flat stanley project, and he sent me back license plates, bumper stickers, and free tickets to come and watch him race. "I love ya Bill" --Mike Elliott

[@PeterDunbar]

Way awesome

[@christinebehm8157]

The sporting world needs more Bill Elliott's. The parenting world needs more Bill Elliotts

[@bradkroboth5490]

Bill is and always be the man. Earnhardt rubbed drivers out of the way, Bill was more respectful and did it in a gentleman demeanor. Drive hard and be polite to a point. Class act and my hero growing up

[@bobholland9924]

Bill is my all-time favorite driver. Love the laid back Interview this was really cool.

[@sheilagibson982]

I was a big Bill Elliott fan, (I began following Chase when I found out that he was Bill’s son)!

[@johnnydobbs1399]

And to think when he did this interview i bet he never thought his son would have a championship at 24 and be the third youngest driver to win a cup title and also be most popular driver. I was born in 78 and for as long as i can remember wild bill is who my daddy friends and family and myself rooted for, and were all GEORGIA boy's so Bill was our favourite now we love to root for Chase!!

[@smokeybear5460]

Bill is Legend.

[@nrwlkguy]

Bill Elliott is the reason, that I became a NASCAR fan. What I don’t understand is why nobody ever says anything about him when anyone talking about Earnhardt and his rivals. They were definitely rivals. Nothing like seeing the Coors Melling Ford Thunderbird.

[@williammartin1001]

Bill was the gentleman of racing and if Chase maintains those standards he will go far.

[@charlieparker2773]

HE WAS THE MAN IN THE #9 FORD , & HE'LL ALWAYS BE AWESOME BILL AND HE'S STILL THE MAIN MAN 🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁 😎

[@jimbosc]

Bill will be running SRX this summer (2021) - the series Tony Stewart and Ray Evernham created.

[@billp5656]

Awesome Bill from Dawsonville

[@daviclar867]

Won his first cup race on a road course, so did Chase!

[@yourejovian]

I would like to beg the question, does this person interviewing Bill Elliott even know what they are doing?

[@2000cobraguy]

I wish the kid was driving a Ford. I wonder if Bill and Ford had a falling out?

[@hawki5120]

I saw a interview with Bill when Chase was still running for JR in the Nationwide series at the time and he said he tried to work out a deal with Ford but they couldn't get it done. I'm guessing Ford is kicking themselves in the ass.

[@Machi74005]

Ford has a long reputation of only wanting to work with a select few teams and screw everyone else it seems. It's a miracle they have had as much success as they've had considering that mentaility of management.

[@TheBeatenPaths]

It's all money and sponsorships, and timing. Happens in all sports to a degree. I'm sure every MLB baseball player would rather be playing for the team they grew up following. Imagine growing up a Yankee's fan and having to play for the Red Sox or Padre's? They never admit that on camera, but I'm sure they all think it.

[@brianbooher2286]

Ford wouldnt exist in NASCAR if not for bill an Ernie Elliott. Then they jus screws him over an him an Ernie bring dodge Back to the sport

[@88fanforlife]

Rick Hendrick had a hold of Chase at a very early age. He signed Chase to a developmental deal in like 2011. The timing of spingate couldn’t be better either cause Napa fell into his lap

[@mikehanks1399]

Fastest NASCAR racer of all time.
