Dale Jr. Download: Burton Brother Run-Ins

[@commonpeasant8792]

Ward is an all time character in NASCAR. Everybody seems to enjoy him.

[@pitbull113]

Much respect for Jeff. You can tell he's a nice guy.

[@howabouthetruth2157]

Does anyone else remember years ago, when someone asked Ward Burton: "How come you & your brother speak entirely different?".........and Ward replied: "I was raised in the southern end of the house"..........LOL.

[@rslattery3]

Howabouthetruth that’s awesome. I used to do the drivers different accents when my dad would rent a house for family vacations after we were older and I realized Ward barely moved his lips when he talked and was almost like a ventriloquist. (Thanks spellcheck)

[@kt-lc5zj]

yes I do remember that. I thought it was funny as as hell.

[@garylindsey5174]

I remembered something to that affect. I think I have misquoted it and said something like "Jeff was born in the north end of the house" lol I used to try to imitate "Ward Burton driver of the MBNA Pontiac"

[@alexismspgaming8260]

@@howabouthetruth2157 funny thing is I had an old VHS about NASCAR (don't even remember what it was, probably 25 years ago when I last watched it as a kid) and they had Jeff Burton on there talking about the "Winston Racing Series" and he sounded much closer to Ward than he does now (or 20 years ago). *** Just realized this is coming from my daughters account.

[@petebribble4651]

I met Ward at a water park near Greensboro with his family many years ago. It was a day or so before a race. We just sat and talked a few minutes. He was very cool, just a dad with his family.

[@gearhead9760]

Thanks everyone at djd. 2 years ago dale retired and I was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer. I lost interest in everything including nascar. A friend told me about the Hornaday interview and I had to listen. I watched Ron race at Orange show in so. cal . That show brought me back to Nascar and I've spent the past few weeks catching up on podcasts. Thank you for bringing me back. My bucket list is Daytona one time while I still can.

[@stevehoward3123]

This show is amazing. I have always loved junior as a driver, but he had really found a niche with these broadcast. I think it's an incredibly great thing for the sport to have a forum of drivers and others involved being interviewed with someone whos been there. Keep it up. This is awesome!

[@hunter12182]

Steve Howard agreed Jrs passion for racing shows much more on these platforms than in a car on a track.

[@grumpyboomer61]

I always liked Jeff Burton. Ward too. And I loved Jeff's answer as to how he and Ward grew up together, but spoke so differently. Jeff said that "Ward grew up in the southern side of the house."

[@stadleroux]

Robert Slattery, he's brilliant. Just asks a simple question and sits back, lets the guest speak. Most talk show hosts are too fond of their own voices and ideas.

Jeff is the only one who won a title on a short track in late model and he also won a lot more races than Ward in late model as well. Record books at South Boston and Orange County reflect that. Jeff also actually for a long time ( and still might ) held record at Orange County for youngest late model champion in track history. He was 21 I think.

I’ve always liked the Burton brothers

[@jamminjim247]

Dale's program is very interesting. It allows us to see and hear things that the media have slanted, or at best, guessed about incidents that occurred in the past. Noteworthy incidents. The major difference is that we are hearing from the actual people involved. So it allows everyone to see the unveiled accounting of everything and everyone involved. This story in particular for me, is quite large. The way the media painted, not just Jeff, the Burton brothers made me anything but a fan. After hearing this single program, I'm honestly sorry that I didn't pay more attention to both of them. You see them in a whole different light.

[@claytonknight3078]

Jeff became my favorite driver when he was driving the 9 car and Jack Roush came calling and Jeff said he had already told Bobby Allison he would be back next year. Loyalty is so rare in racing but I was really impressed!

[@super22ll]

That’s a guy I’d like to hang out with. Class act, tough when he needed to be but not a dirty driver.

[@paysmoretowin]

Love this interview. I really always liked Jeff Burton. And now I respect him even more. We need more of him. I suspect Truex is probably ‘that guy’ these days. A clean racer, a clean mouth, and living by convictions not by knee jerks. I appreciate this guy and what he stand for:

[@jeremymurphy7320]

Funny story. 11 years ago, I was a server at the coolest Cafe (now closed, sadly) in Huntersville. My first Saturday afternoon there, a familiar face was sitting at table 8. It was Jeff Burton & a woman and a couple of kids (which was his lovely wife & their children). I was a Nascar junkie (so to speak) since 1987. Ward was in my top 5 faves! I was nervous so, goofy me said all the welcomes, specials & blurted out, "How's Ward??" 🤪 I felt a chill in the air. I took their order and they ended up being friendly & great regular customers. I was hoping he'd bring Ward in. He didn't. Lol

Thanks for this Jr! Always been a huge fan of the Burton bros. Used to joke with my friends that the accent difference they had was because Jeff must have grown up in the further north side of the house, and Ward in the further south portion of the house!

[@waynefromcanada]

Thank you KZbin for putting this in my recommenced. This is awesome . Looking forward to watching the other videos posted in the channel. I am so glad I found this.

[@JasonNation72]

Who remembers the Bristol race when Ward threw a head accessory at Dale Jr's car when he was circling back around during a caution lap? During the replay, there was a view of the in car cam of Junior encouraging him to throw it by gesturing "c'mon" with his hand. When they interviewed Ward, he said "I wish I wish I would've had something else shot through the window." It was so funny because he sounded so much like Boomhauer from King of the Hill, even the commentators were giggling.

[@swirvinirvan3789]

I remember him throwing his heel protectors at Jr. I thought it was hilarious. Then came the interview and it was even funnier. Good ole Ward was a character. We don't have those types anymore. Clint Bowyer tries too hard and is a little cringe imo.

[@coolzr573]

let me know when Ward wins a race and leads every single lap of said race. many 500 winners not many winners that lead every lap.

[@grizzgrizzly7208]

I consider them about equal honestly. Jeff did have the longer career, more wins, and had periods of time when he was a legit championship contender, but he also drove for some real strong teams especially at Roush and to a lesser extent, RCR and even had some occasional strong runs when he started out with Stavola. Ward didn't have nearly as much success but he also drove for mostly average/below average Cup teams. That he won 5 races, including a Daytona 500 and a Southern 500 and had a couple top 10 points finishes driving what was usually garbage Bill Davis Racing equipment that he propped up for a long time, and even worse when he drove the #0 in '04 and then Morgan-McClure when that team was on literal life support says a lot about his talent. I always felt if Ward had a ride equal to his brother, they would be right there with Texas Terry and Bobby Labonte, Bobby and Donnie Allison and (roll of the eyes) Outlaw and Rowdy Busch (among others) as some of the best brothers to race I the Cup Series, even if neither ended up winning a championship.

[@Slinger43]

My Wife absolutely loves hearing Ward talk, so do I, but she will actually watch any time that Ward is being interviewed 🥰 LOL, I sincerely hope that when Dale Jr had him on (I haven't seen that DjrD episode yet) they talk about the "I wish I had sumpn to shoot thru the window" incident, if they did talk about it, I can't wait to watch it! 🙏
