Rusty's Induction video and full speech for his entry into the NASCAR Hall of Fame on Friday February 8, 2013

[@Xenon676]

Rusty's enthusiasm is huge.Stardom was his destination from the start. It's one of many things that made me a Rusty for all that time. I wish I could tell him how much the memories mean to me.

[@donnajo8599]

Rusty will always be my fave driver ♥ congrats well deserved

[@gatlinkeaton9502]

a tip: watch series on flixzone. I've been using them for watching all kinds of movies during the lockdown.

[@theodoreezequiel3720]

@Gatlin Keaton definitely, I've been watching on Flixzone for since december myself :D

[@chuckhartey9349]

thanks rusty for all the great racing memories!!!

[@Presley126]

Happy for Rusty. Sure miss seeing him race. Such a great guy.

[@stephengroskritz502]

It's great to see Rusty make the Hall Of Fame. I miss watching him race but it's nice to see him on ESPN. He was a great "old-school" driver who now stands beside the best of all time and rightfully so. Thanks to Bill W., Bill P., Glenn, and everybody else for bringing me out to the races. It was a real treat to watch Rusty, Mark Martin, Sterling Marlin, Dale Earnhardt, the Labontes, Dale Jarrett, Jeff Gordon, and all the rest of the great drivers of that time (too many to name) down in Pocono, PA. Congrats Rusty, you surely deserve it!

27:50 Dale Earnhardt and Dr Jerry Punch saved his life at Bristol in 1988

[@MJForever1999]

I feel like if it wasn’t for Earnhardt this man would have way more championships. He was very consistent back in the day

[@TJ89741]

Also if it wasn’t for Earnhardt and Dr Jerry Punch he’d be dead

[@sergeantmasson3669]

I worked at DIS 1996-2006 as part of the security/safety teams. One of my uncles was an executive for one of Rusty Wallace's sponsors. Thus, I got to know Rusty Wallace fairly well over the years.

[@jackthomas205]

He mentioned Earnhardt once about pulling his windshield out after the wreck in practice! Thought for sure he'd be given dale a few more mentions and credits for the rivalry and competition that usually make the best of the opposition and drive them to greatness!

[@Dooguy]

Totally agree Jack

[@markwitkowski6418]

DALE EARNHARDT AND DALE EARNHARDT JR. ARE ABSOLUTELY REVERED BY RUSTY AND KENNY WALLACE,RUSTY JUST MADE DALE THAT MUCH BETTER AT THE WHEEL

[@nazcarcup]

I remember always rocking a Rusty Wallace shirt as a little kid. It was my favorite shirt. I really tried emulated his enthusiasm.

[@Ashstrodamus1]

Rusty is awesome. Can't wait to see him run the Off Road Trucks at the XGames this summer.

[@Reddaytonadog3]

One of the best, although he could have earned another championship and a Daytona 500 win. He had a great career with 55 victories and the 1989 NASCAR Winston Cup (now Sprint Cup) Series championship. An outstanding driver who could have gotten more, but took what he had did the best with it. The original Blue Deuce.

[@ralphhargis5852]

David Pearson and Rusty will always be my all time favorites.

[@jimmyhill9843]

Glad to have been able to watch him race a great driver indeed...

[@danlandry4070]

Onone of the most consistent drivers in my opnion. I remember growing up seeing the results and he was always in top 5 in or top ten. has also won one race a year for 14 years.

[@Greg4fun]

I really wish he had gotten a Daytona 500 win. He was right there a few times just never could pull it off. The true king of the Bull Rings though. No one was better on the short tracks in the 80s and 90s than Rusty Wallace!

[@kevinknott4404]

him and stewart never won at daytona, but look at their record

[@chadmears136]

Rusty was an aggressive but car smart driver who knew alot about chassis setup n shocks n stuff about race cars. One of the Best in Nascar period.

[@godgirlsguitars]

Really nice. I love listening to his stories and what he said about Dale Earnhardt, The King and everybody else.

[@Countryhack01]

This is so awesome.. there the best

[@purplebondsaiyan2987]

one of my Absolute Favorites The Original Blue Deuce Driver. He was the Master at Short Tracks like Bristol and Martinsville and Always Contented at The Point Standings Could've won more Cup Championships even with Penske Racing at least Once. but like his old Buddy and fellow ASA Alumni and Nascar HOFer Mark Martin he never won the Daytona 500. His 1993 Season was incredible

[@ChrisSmith-1983]

Rusty Wallace was my brothers favorite driver

[@timchapman9926]

I couldn't tell if Brad was still drunk from winning the championship Lol

[@danielsoutherd]

10:17 is the face you make when you're caught between Fatback mode and Michael McSwain. He looks like an unhappy old lady in the church choir. Love that guy.

[@Countryhack01]

❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@djracemixer5109]

Rusty "one-time" Wallace

[@Enzo87325]

Better then no times and how many races has he won ?

[@TJ89741]

He beat Dale Earnhardt in his prime to win that championship too

[@sergeantmasson3669]

DJ RaceMixer, that's one time more than you could ever do.

[@scotcoon1186]

1983, I don't think the hall of fame was a twinkle in its daddy's eye yet.

[@chainsaw_monday]

Man, he hung it up too soon.

[@emoney100]

I had a big rusty Wallace car

[@someoneintexas6520]

Sometimes I feel like Brad likes achohol to much

[@ballyman12]

multi car teams killed the real nascar

[@Ghostmotorfinger]

Agreed.

[@scotcoon1186]

Big money more than multicar teams. Big money comes in spending cubic dollars to win a small purse, and it all goes to shit. John Force did it to drag racing.

[@ballyman12]

Was Jeff Gordon ever not a part of a MULTI CAR TEAM?

[@sevendst19]

Maybe when he ran in the Busch series. He was always on at least a 3 car team in NASCAR with Hendrick.

[@gboyredneck88]

Yes, when he drove for Bill Davis in the Busch series

[@ballyman12]

Punks like Jeff Gordon and Jimmy Johnson will never be able to make this kind of speech

[@ballyman12]

AJ Reynolds I meant all the FACTS about the old stories he told,Moron!

[@ballyman12]

AJ Reynolds Wow no life dude?

[@MightyMack03]

Rusty was in a multi car team, Jeremy Mayfield? Ryan Newman? Shut the fuck up kid come on

[@robbyrobinson4500]

How is jimmy johnson a punk? Understand that gordon got that tag when he was running neck and neck with Earnhardt, but Jimmy dont get that one

[@sergeantmasson3669]

@@robbyrobinson4500 Jeff and Jimmie had the most famous cheaters as crew chiefs. Both still work with HMS today.

[@dockey6942]

That was real good rusty how about a ham sandwich. Latter

[@bennybost7073]
