I'm positive no other channel is having the great in depth conversations that you are Kenny!

[@gobbler1957]

I always say that was the best video. This one with Superman was off the charts. It was real. Answers were genuine. Love the honesty. Jonathan Davenport is now my favorite. He is the driver you dream of being. Jonathan Davenport deserves everything he has worked for. And just think, this guy is only 39.

[@jerrylewis4509]

Love it man bring Scott on the show

[@tylerwalker2206]

That would be a good one

[@rickyrickyrule6451]

Awesome sauce......Super Man is the MAN ❤💪💪💪💪💪

[@robertconreux8079]

Thank You !! To Jonathan Davenport!!!

[@haroldgarrett9677]

Good job Kenny! Really like ole HD.

[@bobbyhood3109]

First of all this was a great interview,JD has earned his way in dirt racing and anybody can tell he's true to the sport.Ive watched him race at Fayetteville North Carolina and Dublin North Carolina and win or lose he is the same.He has a good point about the facilities at most dirt tracks,that they need to clean up their act.The question he answered about Bloomquist and Moyer was spot on,I think JD or Superman would be an outstanding ambassador for the sport and he has earned it.Kenny thanks for sharing...

[@bhuff4748]

I got cold chills when he said Bloomquist…. He didn’t hesitate. Always loved to root against Bloomquist, but deep down inside I always knew he was the guy. Cool interview!

[@williamprosser8927]

That was awesome interview with Davenport

[@johnferguson3047]

These are the best interviews. Keep up the good work Kenny.

[@justincrowell3708]

I'm glad Macon Speedway is getting a face lift it was way over due and needed it was sad the condition and state it was in! This new track owner was the best thing for that racetrack!

[@GREGDEATHERAGE-in1pp]

Call us for Supermans glasses!

[@shanekirk8950]

Johnathan is a true class act in the racing world. He has made is way in the sport to be among the best like Bloomer and Moyer. And he has many more years to go and more races to win in his career as a driver. Thanks for that video. Keep up the great job Kenny.

[@johnhale9892]

I went to the Show Me 100 this year, and every driver there was saying that Jonathan Davenport was the one to beat. He put on one hell of a show there this year. I didn't get an opportunity to talk to Jonathan as he didn't finish the race as I was told he ran out of fuel. Ricky Thornton Jr. won, then disqualified due to failing the droop rule. Jonathan had the car to beat. Congratulations to him for winning the Dream.

[@CharlieN01]

I enjoyed that Kenny. You done an excellent interview with Jonathan. You both are a great contribution to dirt racing and just racing in general.

[@michaelkonstantellis3075]

Met JD at the DREAM man is about as humble, calm, cool, collected as they come.

[@resqfreedom9308]

The only other channel that is this in-depth is @Stapleton42 Which, coincidentally, Kenny is by far, the greatest guest, in my opinion, on their channel! 😂 Comes full circle 😂😂😂 GREAT JOB HERMAN! Thank you for all you do, you too @Stapleton42

[@KennyWallace36]

Mitch is great!

[@resqfreedom9308]

@@KennyWallace36 yes sir! He's very into his way of life! Being a fan of everything racing, makes him a great interviewer! He actually wants to know about the things that his audience wants to know about. He's 100% committed to being a fan and that makes him 100% committed to bringing his audience back to his channel. I want to personally thank you for making your life so accessible my friend. You have made this guy smile more times than you can imagine! GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY KENNY! YOU TRULY ARE ONE OF MY HEROS! 🙏❤️✌️

[@robertconreux8079]

Kenny, GREAT show! Amazing!!

[@Fujimo]

Great Job Kenny and JD! Enjoyed it fellas! 💯✌🏻

DaleYeah Great content Kenny ! Thx bud .🏁🏁🏁

[@jameswaite6496]

Love this interview.! JD, Jonathan, "Superman" is "one bad ass wheelman" !

[@kirthooper4625]

Great interview.

[@daleables3554]

Great interview. I have been fortunate to get to hang around Jonathan and he is truly a great guy with unbelievable talent.

[@davidburchfield2720]

Great video Kenny jd is one of the best in the biz a wheel man for sure $$$$$

[@marcnelson2645]

Sporting that Dale shirt. That's what im talking about.

[@reneeshrewsbury6186]

Love JD shirt❤❤

[@sandywilliams5180]

This is just one of the best conversations I've heard so far. I love dirt and asphalt racing with a passion for life that comes with the chase. Keep up the great work ❤️ 👍

[@Supremeballer1776]

Herm keeps bringing the heat boy u better keep racing till ur around Herschel McGrifs age #noexcuses - a loyal fan & sub

[@Matt-qg1ow]

My friends and I have been going to the dream and World for about 11-12 years now. Davenport is turning into Bloomquist at Eldora. If he’s in the race, don’t bet against him

[@bobbyhice8635]

I really enjoy watching The Kenny conversation show

[@benjaminlewis671]

Kenny, keep up with the best content in racing!!! Congratulations to you on taking over the KZbin!!

[@carpenter2833]

Bloomer and Moyer are both great! Two legends in the sport and JD is working his way in there.

[@20yearhvacguy]

Jonathan is definitely one of top 3 my favorites. He is definitely the Dale Earnhardt Sr of Dirt racing in my opinion.

[@chrisodie2467]

Love this guy..he and Kyle larson put on epic battles..kyle knows he's the best and he races the shi# out of him🤣

[@mrt601]

Awesome and thanks for bringing it to us and this is just a observation love JD because he's hard to read and sometimes it like he's looking right through you without any emotions at all calm cool and collective he's the man

[@adamdodson3901]

Superman and Herminator 💯🏁

[@timmyb1980]

Thanks for doing this Kenny, BIG JD fan 🤘🏁🏆

Great conversation Kenny Well done Sir

[@michaels.1365]

Great show Kenny really enjoyed watching this one with Superman I been to a few races when he was there and boy he drive. Thanks man God bless 🙏

[@dougbrewer2257]

watch JD last night at Smoky Mtn hell of race

[@Atmo_nS]

Great conversation Kenny. You can really get a decent gauge on people in longer formats like this and you can tell JD is a good dude. Has a really calm demeanor that I think comes across as pompous or arrogant to people who don't know of him and just know what he's accomplished, but in reality he's just a chill guy and humble and trying not to act no better than anyone else.

[@woofersd2383]

Mr JD is one of the best in the last 10 years. Young man can Drive a race car.

[@thatcurveguy]

I started watching the super late models by watching the Hunt the Front guys. Really enjoy it. Great interview. I would recommend watching it if you're running a dirt late model.

[@reneeshrewsbury6186]

Love your Show ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@charlieparker2773]

GREAT CONVERSATION WITH JD , I WISH WHEN Y'ALL WERE TALKING BOUT KEVIN RUMLEY AND THE #6 CAR, Y'ALL WOULD OF BROUGHT UP LEROY RUMLEY NAME 🏁🏁🏁 HE WAS A GENIUS WHEN IT CAME TO BUILDING DIRT LATE MODELS AND BUILDING THE HIGH HORSEPOWER ENGINES 🏁🏁🏁 KEVIN HAD A GREAT TEACHER 🏁🏁 GREAT INTERVIEW GO HERMAN & GO #49 SUPERMAN , BOTH ARE 💯'S

[@lonewolvesonwheels]

Always a great show on the Kenny Convention

[@gregoreberhardt7453]

you do a lot of cool things Mr. Wallace but this tops all, this is for the books especially because you asked the right Questions and Jonathan was feeling good completely honest, thank you for that !

Lr hiked up was a thing back in the early 2000s. GRT was real big on it back then. Ronnie Stuckey was an genius with the 4 bar birdcages back in the day.

Love all of your interviews ❤❤

[@DDP0723]

Thanks again Herman!! Would be awesome if you got Stewart Friesen on for an interview!

[@DDP0723]

PS. I think stewy was Kyle Larson before Kyle Larson lol (not saying he’s a better driver then Kyle but both succeed on dirt and NASCAR)

[@robh.7699]

Awesome show guys

[@khimbittle7705]

Great video

[@CanuckIV]

I have learned so much about dirt racing watching this interview. I don't even watch dirt racing and have heard his name floating around. HOWEVER, I actually want to start getting into the sport. When are the races and what channel/streaming service is it on? It always looked interesting to me but never found the time to watch it

[@davids5006]

I love dirt racing all of it but I follow the super late models the most I think jd is the best right now

[@davids5006]

RTJ may disagree with ya

[@ralphwatten2426]

My gosh Kenny, what a great interview. One car for Eldora only. Who else does that? Davenport certainly has it now. How long he'll have it. Nobody knows. Just takes one big boo boo to make it go away. Hammer down JD, you've got it. I'm totally against leveling the playing field. That's one of the main things that have messed up NASCAR. It limits progress and innovation.

[@jimmyjolly4184]

One thing about Moyer is they didn't have as many of the bigger races in the early part of his career and bloomer came along when they did have all the big races

[@bobbybrown870]

Overton ran the middle to win all those Eldora races, too

[@keithaldridge8780]

i was under the impression when the right front dropped in the turns raising the left rear pulled the left rear forward to give the car rear steer in the turns

[@JJ-1-1]

You need to pay attention to someone besides that Hunt The Front Crowd...lol

[@kevinsiler7185]

I bought his T shirt just to piss the neighbor off love watching him .

I don't see you out there racing with them if so what's your name and number I think they are probably running and doing better than you keep hating hater. Clay from mobile Alabama

[@jodymcspadden7973]

I believe Moyer had bout 3 different chassis with his name on it . That he helped design oh btw Jonathan check the record books on who has won more big money races it’s not a secret and easy to find . Moyer is the goat no questions asked . 🤣🤣🤣

[@geofferycarey1720]

He don't like being called uncle Johnathan either 😂

[@tico4940]

Kenny,never take pepto bismal,i enjoy your diareia of the mouth lol,heard that when you were nascar years ago and it flows lol,just let it go kenny because your the best aside from tony Smoke Stewart when it comes to saying how you feel .

Bloomer is the best my opinion but JD right there he is a bad dude

Hello your dirt kicker

[@dockey6942]

Really like your cost and mental on what it cost to race the cheaper races it like any else you do if like it you have a day job but a lot of people think you make money I was in drag race for long time what if any may have paid for the fuel

[@ChrisWigal-qn6lh]

Something that kills local dirt tracks, is time. Majority of these shows could be done by 11pm. And your their till 1am or later. Due to wasted time. My local track, I swear the wrecker crews add an extra hour to the night, not knowing how to hook the damn car up, and get them off the track. Lots of wasted time with nothing happening, or waiting on cars to come to the track. Instead of telling them your either on the track when we start, or your not racing.

[@ChrisWigal-qn6lh]

3 different compounds. Mount them and go. Teams shouldn’t have touch them. Mind blowing these tire manufacturers can’t make a tire that’s already grooved and shit, that can just be bolted on. Guess it makes to much sense
