Man it's good to see Steve Park. He was the first, the chosen one. Earnhardt wanted him. When Daryll Waltrip said that car was the fastest thing he'd ever been in I got goosebumps.

[@buckeyefangirl1976]

Amen. He drove the #1 and WAS #1 with Dale for DEI.❤️. He was #1 in so many fans hearts too.

[@annex6]

@Buckeye Fangirl19 He is, absolutely.

[@the_lenny_draper]

He thought it was a joke the first time Earnhardt called him. :)

[@annex6]

@@the_lenny_draper Harvick was not the "Chosen One", twas' Stevareeno.

[@michaelw6483]

That was awesome Kenny, really good to see Steve Park. We miss those good old DEI days with Steve,Mikey and Jr.

[@speediepitstop1531]

Ever wonder why Waltrip left Steve Park out of his movie like he was never at DEI

[@tritontransport]

@@speediepitstop1531 your first mistake is trying to make any sense of why Michael Waltrip ever does anything because he’s not the sharpest tool in the shed. Why was he caught walking down a county road in his socks? 🤔

[@BrianBraaten]

@@tritontransport dang now I want the answer to both questions

[@kclaptraffic]

One of my favorites. Steve was a great driver and an even better builder.

[@IcecreamLtDan]

great to see steve again.He was a big part of DEI. Glad you guys are having fun together.

[@ad206]

My favorite driver growing up. Loved to see him wheel the Pennzoil car to a sneaky number of top 10s. He was severely underrated.

[@johnschilling1759]

I grew up watching Steve race in Connecticut my home state also watched him in multiple states race asphalt mods and man he was freaking great one of all-time best..

[@orendz7740]

It’s damn good seeing Steve Park. I always hated what happened, but no matter what he is a hell of a driver and always admired his will power. I miss seeing Steve and Kenny Wallace out there. Glad you have a YT channel Kenny. Doing good with it! 👊 Man Steve Wallace has grown up! Didn’t recognize him until I read the video description

You look great...yeah yeah Herman so do you❤️👍😁. My birthday is the 15th and this is my best birthday present! Thank you both so much. My late husband was a huge fan of yours too Steve. So glad to see you looking so well and happy. Sure have missed seeing you. Much love, health and happiness to you and your family Steve. Don't stay away so long. Kenny keep up to date with him here more often please.

[@buckeyefangirl1976]

I saw a video on KZbin last week of that horrible wreck you had at Pocono Steve. After all this time it still upsets me and makes me cry. I was screaming at the TV and crying that day and my husband was trying to reassure me you were ok. That was awful and you had angels riding on your shoulder that day for sure. Kenny, yeah I remember you driving the #1 Pennzoil car while Steve was recuperating from his head injury too. Steve was Dale's #1 driver for DEI and he was #1 in so many fans hearts too including mine and my husband's. Gosh it's just GREAT seeing you. Thank you so much Kenny!❤️

[@macmac2846]

I miss Steve Park!!!!! A man's man

[@loualexander6071]

Steve, it is really good to see you again. My son and I met you one weekend at Dover Downs. My son was probley 10 at the time, and you were so cool to him. I have always been a big fan of yours at the very beginning. I hated it when you left the Nascar scene. It's really good to see you doing well. Thanks Herm. Love your shows.

[@prato-24]

So awesome to see Steve Park!!! Met him at Michigan, got some autographs and conversed a minute! Was only 25 years ago or so!!!! So awesome!!! Thanks Kenny (who I met at Bristol and what a guy!!!) for sharing this with us!!!!!

[@buddygreeno7723]

[@Jamesbass1968]

Love and miss this driver!! Definitely would have been a Championship contender!!

[@DC322]

Park repping from Long Island/Northeast. Dale Sr.'s chose him to race his car and the rest was history. Park's first win was the Glen in 2000 beating Martin(accomplished road racer). Glad he's been doing good post Nascar career. Northeast has produced great drivers over the years.

[@chriswilgus4752]

Good to see Steve doing well. My son's bday is the 24th of august!

Awesome to see Steve. Yea Steve, you're famous, just own it. Yea the bikes are amazing.

[@TheFOHMan]

Steve got DEI its first win at Rockingham the week after Dale Sr. passed. That was an important win helping DEI move forward.

[@Be.authentic_]

He was going to win WAY MORE than just 2 races for his career. WAY MORE but we all know what happened. Idc he's one of my favorite drivers when I got into NASCAR in 1999 and he was headed to the TOP. Great to see him 😭

[@jonsabo8849]

Thanks for the video Kenny, Steve Park crash I won't forget. Nice to see he fully recovered.

[@jamietaylor8522]

Holy crap just learned I share a birthday with Kenny Wallace and Steve park august 23 🎉😊

[@dannotwalruslarkin9324]

Steve Park was on his way to being a good top 10 driver snagging wins for a long time. It's good to see him smiling having fun, this guy had a bunch of horrible things out of his control happen to him.

[@randywiedemann1461]

Good to see what Steve's been up to I have been following him since he broke the track recored in a featherlight modified at holland speedway in NY

[@mlstrib]

Great seeing ya Steve! Come around more often! Really glad you're doing well. Edit: especially because KW needs a buddy more than most 😜

[@hannahcarmen7236]

S o glad to see Steve Park keep up good work like interview, seem he is doing fine,

[@tjw3999]

i grew up in the north east near thompson speedway watched steve and his dad race alot on the modified tour. funny he lives in port orange now so do i lol. hope his dad Bob is doing well

[@elgallowayjr]

I’ve been sick this last week, this made me feel a little better

[@markwitkowski6418]

Hey Kenny,Steve Park was a great racecar driver and person.Ask him about Oswego,he ran there ,and like you ,the fans loved him.Steve was the victim of bad circumstances,he is still a champion in our eyes.

[@stevegabbert9626]

You guys were born a day too soon, should have been the 24th. 😉 I grew up with a friend of mine that was into driving stock cars, and was born exactly one year before me. One year we shared a birthday cake in front of the crowd at East Moline Speedway, in Illinois (a really long time ago). I've also been riding bikes for the past 45 years, and have seen races in all 50 States, and every Canadian Province but two. Stay safe, and keep the rubber side down.

[@TravisMSimpson]

Two guys you wish had been riffing off wins in Cup like it was going out of style. Hate Park got hurt and I hate you didn't get too many opportunities in top stuff but I will always love your work ethic no matter how the car did.

[@jonsabo8849]

1983 Kawasaki GPZ 750 turbo, what a rocket back in 83. Only 2500 copies made.

[@muggins9389]

Geoff Bodine lives right near there too. you could have one hell of a party

[@danbarnett9518]

Steve park fan here in Maine

[@tomsadowski8308]

Hey Kenny you are a trip love u man

[@ChrisCards]

Scariest thing I ever saw on the track, Bentley Warren in a super modified at Flemington speedway. They turned that square into a circle and it was FAST.

[@buckeyefangirl1976]

Sorry K, I meant to add this to previous post. IF we'd have gotten our NASCAR track in WV at least we'd have had great music and concerts thanks to WV homeboy Brad Paisley who is a proud Mountaineer. Between him and him getting all his country music pals to come here the music would have been great. His buddies Alabama played Huntington a LOT. Have you ever seen his video with them and Jeff Gordon called "Old Alabama"? It's great. Rick Hendrick and DW even got in the video 👍😁❤️. One more quick story related to NASCAR/Huntington but about Dale Jr and Smoke. They were at Bristol in the spring a few years ago and flew Smokes plane up to Huntington for a Kid Rock concert. I wasn't there but my son was. JR got up on stage and played drums and was awesome to fans. Smoke however was a tad grumpy lol. I totally understand and respect that he was correct in saying "hey we're here for a concert not a race thing; not a meet and greet". I say he was right to take that stance. I guess JR stayed though and signed and signed.

Crazy married August 23 1980. Were still rollin along

Perfect day for a birthday its mine also
