Dale Junior is such a genuine, intelligent and good hearted person. I can understand why he was the most popular driver for so long. I personally was never a fan of his but certainly didn’t dislike him in anyway. How could anybody dislike him. Years ago I read a book by DW. I can’t remember the name of the book. It was about his father-in-law helping him to get into NASCAR and a lot of the things he did to cheat. There was a lot more in the book other than that but I don’t remember it as it was probably 15 years ago that I read the book. Look it up if you can, it is a good read!

I love stories like that. It's not cheating, it's reading between the lines of the rulebook. My dad worked in IndyCar for many years, and would go to lunch with Smokey Yunick when he was fielding a car for Indy. He said his cheeks hurt afterwards from grinning and laughing so much hearing Smokey tell stories about ingenuity. I think one of my favorite creative solutions was when F1 teams started doing water cooled brakes in the 1980s. Similar to the lead shot, they'd have a good size water tank to make weight, and once the race started, they'd flick a switch and pump all the water out onto the track, supposedly to cool the brakes, but it was really to dump the extra weight. F1 weighed the cars after the race too, but they would top off all the fluids first, so the water tank would get filled up to full again, and the car would be back to the legal weight.

Smokey Yunick was a genius, nothing less.
@nutstank233 жыл бұрын
True story, FIA stopped allowing them to refill fluids because so many cars were doing this. Another good F1 story are the teams who figured out the sequence of the green lights at the start and would receive a transmission to the millisecond of when the green would be out and F1 figured out they were exploiting that and changed the sequence so the next race multiple cars jumped the start because of it.

I agree with D.W. and Dale, Jr. NASCAR makes the "rules" but if the "rules" say a car has to weigh 3,700 pounds at weigh in...they did that. Too bad if NASCAR did not foresee the creative way crews found a way around that rule, and many others. My favorite was the "dump cans used in the 60's to refuel. Some "creative types" discovered that if you put a flapper valve in the bottom of the dump can (which becomes the top when pouring in the fuel) that allows air to rush in it allowed that fuel to flow out of that can nearly instantly. There were NO rules against doing that at the time. NASCAR just said they could hold no more than 10 gallons (or whatever) and that was it. So while some teams were waiting in the pits for the fuel to glug glug out of those cans...the ones with that valve emptied almost as soon as it was turned up. That is not "cheating" to me, that is innovative thinking. Smokey Yunick used something like a 30 foot, 1" diameter coiled fuel line from the tank to the carb thereby holding an additional 5 gallons of gas or some such amount. There were no rules against that at all. There are now, ha ha.

Those days are gone and unfortunately so are most of the driver's from back then. I used to race r/c cars and DW's Tide car was my main body. I still have the car and body.

I've always liked DW but honestly I found the sport at the very end of his driving career so most of my impression of him is as a commentator in the booth. But love him or hate him, it's so awesome to listen to him tell the stories about how they used to bend the rules. You can call it cheating but it was just every man for himself trying to do whatever it took to win. They were so competitive and if you didn't bend the rules, you didn't stand a chance because everyone else was bending the rules too. Oh the glory days of NASCAR! Too bad it's not more like that today.

DW is kinda the John Madden of NASCAR - great personality and very knowledgeable in the booth.

My favorite DW comment was when he said "The inside of the track is shorter than the outside of the track." My wife and I just lost it and we never stopped laughing about it for years.

My best friend and I thoroughly enjoyed Darrel Waltrip's post race interviews, quick witted and entertaining. I miss those days, I don't watch NASCAR anymore for several reasons.

What a show you could have if you put DW , Rusty and Mark on at the same time. What a set of stories you could have

I was fortunate enough to meet DW at his race shop just before he retired! I think it was the 66 Kmart ride! I will never forget that experience!

I love this. Whether its the tv show or the podcast I love it. But man the personalities that have passed on that would have been great on the download. Buddy, Benny, Neil, Bill Sr. and Jr., I mean the list is so long.

Kills me that Jimmy Spencer accused Jr of having a cheat car at Daytona and his only two wins were in a cheat car.

Darrell waltrip looks like the kinda guy you could sit down, have a beer with, and just talk about life and racing. A mans man through and through

I'd love to hear Jr. elaborate on the Clint Boyer crash at Richmond in 2013. That was when Clint dove the #15 for MWR. Jr's reaction was awesome!!
