Stock Car Legends Reunion Volume Two

[@Fehrman21114]

Real guys with real personalities. Amazing how the world has changed...

[@MrChristopherHaas]

And I would have rather lived in theirs.

[@KK-ex5zu]

I saw this full length special on cable back in the 90's as a kid, I forgot about most of those amazing stories. The best in this part 2 hour is Junior Johnson escaping both the car and the plane while flipping and Cale and the bear cub, very funny awesome stories from the early days of NASCAR!

[@drivin379]

The whole nation used be like this...laid back joking carrying on ...but now we cry get offended and mad at the world

[@Slinger43]

Social & Main stream Media + all us parent's that allowed TV & the internet to help raise our children are to blame 🙏😞

[@brad4110]

Yep I can remember every town you went to the country stores always had a group of men like this.

[@AlericAsbury-lb2tv]

I have to agree @drivin379 but not with @slinger43

[@johnnymiller8938]

Real men, real racers. When Nascar was awesome.

[@Miatacrosser]

Dick Brooks..the pride of Porterville, California. Was a fan of him his whole career especially his time in the #90 Junie Dunleavy Ford. Got to see him lead many laps at Ontario in '78. We were all yelling for ya and the ladies smiled.

[@Slinger43]

I was there at Ontario in 78, Ol' Brooks had that Junie car in the wind didn't he! And you right, Brooks was very popular with the Ladies 😁 I was rootin hard for Junie's car, cause my 43 car was the Magnum, and I knew that barn door wasn't gunna win nuthin 🤮 I don't remember what happened to Brooks in that one, just remember Bobby won it.

[@davidh1249]

"You son of a bitch,You find my nose I'll find your motorcycle!" Hahaha,That sounds like a helluva trade.

[@PowderEater]

I've watched this over a dozen times and that one always cracks me up. A true classics

[@swvastories3498]

Please don't ever take these down. Pure gold right here! It's a shame we have lost several since these were filmed. Barney, Buddy, Junie, Little Bud Moore, Dick Beatty, Dick Brooks, Coo Coo Marlin. RIP Gentlemen.

[@cameronbolin5261]

Scott K. Add one more we lost Tom Huggins today

[@Wicked1999]

RIP David Pearson. He was great in these films a great sense of humor. Thank you for uploading these films!

[@85me262]

Junior Johnson has since passed aswell.

[@9751asd]

dont forget Glen wood

[@Flag2flag]

And now Cael is on his last days . So sad man . Legends

[@aaronkristofer18]

Wow! What a surprise to see Coo Coo Marlin here! I thought he passed in the late 90s, I did not realize he didn't pass away until 2005. I've never actually seen footage of him/heard his voice in interviews or anything. That was an awesome treat!

[@jimgribble4169]

NASCAR will never be the same without these colorful characters ...All these guys are legends, it ended when we lost Earnhardt ...

[@jasonvogue4487]

Coo Coo and Pearson… Schewww.. they’re all cool take off is optional, Landings are MANDATORY!!!

[@brad4110]

Crazy Red Farmer at 91 is still racing. This man is a legend.

[@Slinger43]

These Gentleman are ALL LEGENDS & they are Legends for a reason, BALL'S of STEEL! Each & every one lead an amazing life, doing thing's 90% of driver's & crew folk's today would be to afraid to do. That's why this era, especially the driver's, are looked upon as Hero's, where as the driver's today are merely celebrities 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@MrChristopherHaas]

And personality! No cookie cutters here.

[@Slinger43]

​@@MrChristopherHaasAmen to that comment Hoss, spot-on actually! 💪 Haven't spoke with you in a goodly bit, hope you're well 🤞

@@MrChristopherHaas Glad to hear it, us old fan's gotta stick together 💪

[@garyross1279]

I love these videos. Reminds me of good times. These are or where good men.

[@swvastories3498]

When I first got into Nascar back in 1996, I had dreams of working for a race team in their shop offices. I had no skills besides working in a bank office. Stupid I know! Anyway, I sent a resume to every full time team and usually either got a standard postcard reply or no response at all. But the Wood Brothers sent me a very nice personalized letter signed by their office manager Kim Wood. I still have that letter somewhere and always pull for them. Glad to see they are returning to a full time schedule in 2016.

[@lynnstevens4772]

The Wood brothers are some of the best in Nascar.

[@drivin379]

I live in stuart ....wood bro country....in a way you got lucky...TRUST ME

[@Slinger43]

The Wood & Petty families are some of the most awesome humans walking the planet, as down to Earth as you'll ever see 💪

[@lugnut4u]

This is so cool , real racers real legends !!!!

[@MrChristopherHaas]

I’m a 50 year nascar fan who has watched every video that every one of these men were involved in, thousands of hours on you tube, but always skipped this series. Why I have NO idea, I guarantee I’ll be rewatching this many times.

[@calebjones2341]

“Is my legs cut off?!?”

[@hayden4597]

Lee Petty must’ve been pretty sick by 1998 because I’m shocked that he wasn’t at this. And Richard, Dale Inman, Mourice Petty. Something must’ve been going on that Darrell was there and not any of the Petty’s

[@garyross1279]

I have watched these over and over

[@Whogrl16]

Crazy to think dw and marcis were stil active drivers at this time

[@MrChristopherHaas]

This series is utterly wonderful. Try to imagine 20 years from now or even now and they gathered the next generation for a talk. It would be “we were playing this video game aaaand..”. boring. Too bad they didn’t give us the R rated get together. THANK YOU for this HISTORIC post.

[@cool3865]

honestly they could do another one with the guys that ran during the 80s and 90s and it would still just be as good. in the 2000's is when it got all mandated

[@MrChristopherHaas]

@@cool3865 id love to get a story out of Jeff Gordon about the first time he met his sponsor…Dupont. a lovely pairing. By the 90s the pilots were mostly married men who toted their families around,everything was much more regimented. poor southern boys were pretty much replaced with rich mens kids. beer cans and liquor bottles in hand were widely replaced with video game controllers lol.

[@rickarra9396]

We'll never seen anything like this again

[@timcochran5807]

I never knew Dick Brooks was such a good story teller!

[@XnaughtylusX]

these guys here are the REAL drivers back in the days

[@HopeyDopey143]

OMG ! OMG !! 😱 NEVER HEARD OF THIS !! Buddy Baker here !!! Made me cry !!! Talking about Buck Brigance!! You know Buddy and Buck were personal friends of mine !! Loving this !!!!

[@mx21foreverboo29]

I so Miss these men! Real Dang Racers!

[@NotSteveCook]

Somebody's gotta gather this generation again (minus those who have passed on) for another round of stories and tall tales! And then gather the next generation (Elliott, Dale Jarrett, the Labontes, Martin, Wallace, etc) for the same thing.

[@MrChristopherHaas]

I can hear it now….each story starts off with “i was playing a video game on my device aaand..

[@eddiedawkins19]

So many of these men have passed away since this filming, sad that so many heros are missing

[@brianzink4543]

This is better then then the second coming. I grew up watching these gods of speed. Thank You.. Cant stop laughing...

[@briancanterberry3085]

Eli Gold! Voice of the ALABAMA CRIMSON TIDE!!! Man so many of these great legends are not with us anymore. Sad 😭😭

[@aricsnyder5882]

Jr saw the reverners on the airstrip.. That's how he got out

[@J.B24]

Dick Beatty reminds me of an auto mechanics teacher in the south back in the 70s.

Now this is nascar at its finest not like this crap they have today

[@patwarson217]

These veterans are class acts all the way,98% of the driver's today,are selfish and no personality

[@aricsnyder5882]

Jr Johnson... I've seen pictures Ed Hinton has a different picture then what was shown. JJ somehow jumped out the busted back "WINDER" and ran away. ... Hutzpah of pure Steel

THANKS!!!

Please post 3 & 4. It would really be appreciated. Thanks.

I LOVE these tapes! Thanks so much! Are they available on DVD?

[@DenjaCol]

Robert Lloyd , those vids are from my VHS tapes I purchased a long time ago. Not sure they are still available.

[@gregeryhouston9197]

Yeah, I lucked up last time I went to a nascar race and found it on dvd

[@kingmaddog2]

omg lol i'm dying laughing.

[@Threekings96]

Wonder why richard petty wasn't there as well, maybe this was recorded around 2000 when Lee's health was declining

[@aricsnyder5882]

See that Morgan- McClure 4 car up there.. Wonder if it has the Tony Glover tuned headers on it.. . Unless you were there you won't understand.. It sounded beautiful.. Like the Cubans take there 50 Gallon drums and sculpt it to have that sound Tony Glover took a ball peen hammer.. That 4 car had just an amazing sound...

[@Pwg1985]

Aric Snyder they don’t have motors in any of those cars

[@aricsnyder5882]

What did jr say when the plane story is being told

[@lynnstevens4772]

He told Cale " come over here where I am "

[@Threekings96]

when was this recorded? It sounds like it was before 01 cause they spoke of earnhardt like he was still alive owning that dealership. Interesting that he wasn't there if he's still alive at the time I know these guys all got 20 years on him but DW is there not that much older

[@DenjaCol]

I got it in a four VCR pack. The date on the box is 1999. I don’t think that was when it was recorded, sometime before that I would imagine.

[@Threekings96]

@@DenjaCol Awesome thanks for the response

[@MrChristopherHaas]

No Tom PISTONE?

[@rascosim1]

No 19 year old kids in this group.

[@klk1900]

These guys don’t understand the modern drivers because these guys don’t understand how most of us were raised. At 5yrs old was the first time I drove a car under a sponsor. We had a extreme amount of pressure on us from an early age. You were taught this is a job not a game or a playground. You were brought up that it’s serious and also the competition was a lot stronger.

[@cvpuga]

what year is this?

[@luisy.gonzalez6469]

November 1998, released in 1999.

[@Tommy_Mac]

What's the date when this was originally recorded?

[@DenjaCol]

The only date I could find was 1999. Not sure if it was recorded then or not, but that appears to be the production date.

[@Tommy_Mac]

@@DenjaCol Thank you. That explains a lot.

[@yojoeski]

DenjaCol Based on a few comments said during one of the videos, I believe this was recorded in October 1998 between the Charlotte and Talladega races. They mention having just been at Charlotte and Talladega coming up. Even some of what gets talked about by DW as happening at Charlotte matches up with events in the 1998 Fall race.

[@agirlwholovesjesus]

At the end, there's a dedication to Dick Beaty, and they mentioned that he passed a few weeks after this filming. So, if you look up when he passed, that'll give you an idea of when in 1998 it was done.

[@joevald3]

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

[@rubberbandmansgarage470]

It’s so scary how bad the sport has gotten since the last of the old school left it’s just about money now and absolutely not interesting anymore as of 2021 what a shame!!!

[@RB-ib3mo]

To be fair it was always about the money, maybe even more so back then when they posted the purse. Look at most of the most famous drivers history (earnhardt, DW etc). They all raced to put food on the table and found that if they did well They could earn way more than a normal job. They've all said so themselves many times. Sponsorship was a huge thing always as well. No team could ever race without sponsorship. After saying all that I totally understand what you're saying and I agree that it's changed for the worse. I think it's more along the lines of nascar having gone so pc that any potential character's like these men can't be themselves. Nascar has sanitised the drivers, teams... everything to the point of them being almost like identical robots. The other thing is that the excellent safety of the cars now has made them think they're invincible. Safety first always but it has been an effect of it being so good. On the upside this next gen car looks like it's going to be a good thing. The racing is already better and the drivers have to show a bit of skill to drive. Time will tell if it will help bring nascar back to being as good as we all know it can be.

[@drivin379]

But junior at beach there is video shows that wreck. Car stop junior climbs out back glass ...cale stretching truth Lil bit.....KZbin. top 10 nascar flip of 50s
