Darrell is a true treasure of the sport. Glad to still have him as a peace of the glory days of nascar to talk about it

[@scottrjmatmsncom]

2 years later and It still gets me

[@christopherwaldrop8115]

Big PROPS to DW. Thank you D for being in my memories.

[@18winsagin]

You're a Legend DW, glad I came along while you were in your prime. "Follow me in Tennessee "haaaaa! Best of health to you and Stevie people of faith that are simply down to earth good folks and I am glad to witness this his bit of history.

[@tr1338]

I literally get goosebumps from this.

[@user-cs3zs6jn1d]

Man,I choke up every time I see that Daytona clip of DW saying " I sure hope Dale is okay" . You are a LEGEND .

[@jeffcanyafixiy]

Me to, tough day. Thanks 👍

[@MegaMr46]

Michael Jackson it was a rough start for DW. Even though Michael Won...it was tough to witness the loss of one of his buds who was also his brother’s boss.

[@carlloar7519]

I do to

[@marcconte3275]

Right there with ya, good buddy

[@joshuabranson74]

Yeah I was six when that accident happened and il never forget it and how emotional my mom was and then I remember the next race the had this montage memorial video before the race and it was the song Yellow by Coldplay and it made me cry because it was sad and my mom was sad and it brought up old trauma because my brother had got killed on his Kawasaki Ninja just a few years before. It's weird how no matter how young certain moments in time can be so real that you can almost taste it even if it was 20 some years ago it's like a core memory

[@matthartleyjr9180]

beautiful all around 😢🎉🙌💚

Thank you dw great driver great man!!!

[@ErrolDAllen]

Every man needs a wife like Stevie!

[@greglewellen4510]

DW you are awesome but man your wife Stevie is a very beautiful person in every way. Two lucky to have and keep each other through the last 50 yrs with more to come. I believe success starts with two good people sticking together through the good and bad. Just a wonderful story it really is. The greats always shine through

[@bowitt6799]

DW, you where a racer, a awesome family man , a man of faith, take it man . Happy laps with chapter 3 thanks for the memories.

[@altenwoodrow6479]

Darrell has a very sweet wife.

[@chadmorin4068]

As a young driver coming up through the ranks he beat The King and out ran The Silver Fox in the heat of their battles. To his feuding with Dale and Rusty he was a class act man and a class act driver on and off the field. I always knew he should've never went independent. An old rival needed a great driver and DW proved to the world he could still drive right to very end. He was a brilliant man with a brilliant mind and a great problem solver with his thought process. It's that perfect balance with determination that made him such a force on the track. He should've been one of those drivers with a 110 wins. I can say as a young boy born in 70 I got to watch a young man evolve NASCAR but also that amazing man evolve into the great person he is today. Thank you Jaws for being consistent with NASCAR all these years as you've done something no else had done.

[@acrock21]

what a career.

[@SpleeZee]

Boogity, Boogity, Boogity. I loved hearing that every race to start growing up. I love the Waltrips but man DW made me love racing. I was a toddler yelling “BOOGITY BOOGITY BOOGITY”

[@terrygarvin1980]

I couldn't stand Jaws,so of course that made him my brother's guy. We finally made it to Daytona and he had to have ol DW'S autograph. The session was 4 to 6 and the line went on forever. It was obvious his time would be up before he got his autograph and DW wasn't helping any as he chatted with everyone and the line moved agonizingly slow. At about 8:30 he got his autograph. I have been A HUGE FAN ever since...

[@christolbert4628]

❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏

[@robertshepherd1020]

Go DW relax andjoy life

[@aaronkristofer18]

Not that I mind this guy doing what he's doing, we all love him, but this is a long time coming. He's only been saying he was gonna do this for like, the last two and a half seasons.

Me too man.

[@mrkilmister365]

I hope NASCAR makes him a two time hall of famer. After all those entertaining years in the booth he truly deserves it. :)

[@tr1338]

Agreed!!!

[@jeffcanyafixiy]

Enjoy chapter #3 DW. Be blessed, stay blessed. 🙏🏁

[@farahismail13]

#3...

[@ericshimer6669]

For Stevie to put it like she did and 50 years of Doing what he loved and her standing by him threw it all is the true legacy. Testimony of what a true woman these days should be all about. Not money or fame and fortune but to see each other succeed in what we want to do. She is who young women need to hear more from.

[@gospelviews9831]

That was very honorable. I ❤ it!!!

[@BoleDaPole]

Young women shouldn't be tied to their men, they should be strong and independent, her kind of thinking is rapidly decreasing.

[@FinancialGuyLou]

@@BoleDaPole A strong and independent woman doesn't give you babies or sandwiches, they just give bullshit.

A testament to two people who truly love each other. A testament to two people who are willing to fight through the hard times to experience the good times together

[@leeweeks2000]

Unfortunately for NASCAR another personality gone. It's not the racing or cars that's wrong with NASCAR today, it's neglecting the roots and losing the personalities that built it. Best wishes to DW and thanks for the memories!

[@bobguffaws2901]

Well say bye bye to the roots, California boy with no southern in him at all Harvick is going to be the next voice of nascar.

[@leeweeks2000]

NASCAR was definitely a southern thing but today it's these huge conglomerates that own 4 & 5 car teams and drivers that are more paid endorsers than racers.

[@bobsmyth7590]

Stevie Waltrip - God Bless You...

[@TimScottDT]

What type of person dislikes this I mean really?? Cmonn now

[@Tiredsoutherndad]

Straight up dick heads. People live miserable lives, and want to rub some of that off on everybody. Even if it's just with a thumbs down.

[@sntstafford]

Cale Yarborough fans, maybe??

[@jerrysantos6484]

Died in the wool Cale Yarbourough fans might be the only ones I reckon.

[@joshuabrooks4907]

It's one thing to not like Darrell as a person, but it's another when you don't like the video someone made of his wife reading and writing a letter she wrote to him thanking him for being a positive part of her life. That's just plain disrespectful.

[@box3229]

sounds like they prefer NBC especially with Rick Allen

[@gregturner5890]

Man..as a blk man I been watching NASCAR since 1969 Daytona 500..thank you DW..one of the best..2020..the first thing I said where's DW..didnt know you retired...thank you..and let go racing boys..😍😍

[@runjam88]

Gonna miss DW calling the race but I'm glad he graced NASCAR for so long. God bless you DW and family. Enjoy retirement! (Maybe get a contract to call part of the Darlington throwback race?!)

[@justachipn3039]

Im 63 and grew up watching DW and all the guys and the all the new cars that kept coming along... i'll bet this aint the last of DW's story with NASCAR... I HOPE ;)

[@MrMiD.Life.Crisis]

This is a beautiful and moving video. I dont think Stevie wrote it all ("dogged") tho it is a real good summation and tribute. I'll miss you DW Sir. You are one of the main reasons i got hooked on this sport in the first place and while i'll always love racing, theres things i cant stand in Nascar nowadays - but, like DW, maybe im just getting old(er) and lookin thru those 'rose-tinted specs' for something that aint there. Hope retirement is good to ya Mr. Waltrip. It will be hard to replace a personality as big as yours!!

[@michaeltoss8204]

Thank you for everything DW.

[@Truth5468]

DW is one of my favorites drivers and when he won the Daytona 500 that day I was a big fan of his. He is truly a champion in and out of a race car.

[@ckbama17]

DW was my favorite driver as a kid. Some people probably have no clue how dominant this guy was in the early 80’s. One of the best there ever was for sure.

[@mattcecil6692]

They need to get someone big to fill Darrell's place. Someone like Larry back or a person of that calibre. No need to change Gordon or Joy though

[@gogulankamaleswaran7795]

Matt Cecil bruh, Mike Joy needs to go, he’s boring and sugarcoats the product.
