  • A lot of motorsports fans and EVEN SOME NASCAR fans say the Daytona 500 is nothing more than a luck based lottery. I strongly disagree, and one of the main arguments against is the dynasties of Chevrolet and now Denny Hamlin. One of the forgotten Daytona 500s happened in the 1990s with the single car operation fielded by Tim Morgan and Larry McClure. During the 1990s, the team found its success not through luck, but hard work from faces such as Tony Glover and Runt Pittman. Don't forget some wheelpower in Sterling Marlin and Ernie Irvan as well. The accomplishments they achieved is greatly underrated in my opinion, so here it is. The story of the Morgan-McClure Daytona 500 Dynasty!

    It's a hell of an accomplishment but winning a few times at one track and little success anywhere else doesn't get you in the hall.

    Here are 2 other accomplishments by MMM. They were one of the few teams that won all 4 of the restrictor plate races (Daytona 500, Winston 500, Pepsi 400, and Diehard 500). They also were one of the few teams to win on every type of track... Superspeedway (Daytona/Talladega), Intermediate track (Darlington), Short track (Bristol/Martinsville), and Road Course (Sonoma/Watkins Glen). These guys were a lot better than they get credit for... especially as a single car team.

    LOL when Sterling hit Daytona and sounded like a damn Indy Car ESPN interviewed him and asked "Runt what did your guys do to the exhaust" and Runt said "What do you mean what did we do, we WORKED ON IT"

    • @4fanintexas
      @4fanintexas 2 роки тому +2

      After a Talladega win Runt was asked the same question. He said with a half-smile, "We carried it down to Bob's Muffler Shop in Abingdon and did some work on it." Classic Runt.
      In another interview in victory lane, Runt was asked, "Just what kind of engine do you have in that car?" Without missing a beat Runt replied, "A Chevy engine."

    I have been critical of this channel for it's lack of content so I feel compelled to be complimentary here. I enjoyed this video. It was a cool idea about a subject that hasn't been beaten into the ground. I'd rather watch this any day over "top ten times an Earnhardt drank water while racing at a plate track."
    It would be cool though if someone made a video about how superspeedway racing has changed throughout the years. Like,a history of drafting or pack-racing kind of thing.
