    Hey guys! This is Derek Colson! The piece of wood with the car on it at the 40:30ish mark of this video is something my Dad and I made and gave it to Darrell at North Wilkesboro Speedway while he was sitting in the back of the hauler! Really cool to see it again after all these years! Looks like it's in perfect shape!

    Back I'm gonna say around 1990-1991. Our local track here in Tucson used to invite the pros out and they would race the top five cars. The class was late model sportsman it was a dirt track. I got to meet Dale Earnhardt Senior, Richard Petty, and Darrell Waltrip. And actually have a beer I'm not sure what they were drinking keep in mind. We all just sat at the beer well and chitchatted after the race. All I have to say is those were Men for sure. We were talking about restrictor plate racing and I remember Dale Earnhardt said if it was up to me we just take those damn restrictor plates off May the best driver win! Then I became a fan LOL

    So many memories came flooding back watching this video. My Grandparents lived in a little town in VA called Christiansburg. Grandpa used to watch NASCAR every weekend. The best part was that Hugo Phelps used to be a neighbor and was friends with him. I remember when Hugo passed on and D.W. and a bunch of other drivers all showed up for Hugo's funeral. Grandpa was there and got to meet all of the drivers that showed up. For an small town old timer, it was a major event and highlight for him even though he had lost his friend. Grandpa has passed on, but I still remember watching races with him. Thanks for doing this video, it brought back some real good memories for me. I appreciate your enthusiasm for the good old NASCAR stuff. Keep it up, you two are doing great stuff.

    Dang, how cool is that! You are so right, time only happens once, as you said in the video. It was a huge positive experience to be able to go through this time capsule of a great race car driver's career for sure. That was also so cool to be able to speak to Darrell himself, and that you all did contact him about all his stuff that is in excellent shape.
    You sure stumbled upon a huge gold mine of NASCAR memorabilia for sure! This video rocks for sure, and a huge thank you to you & Logan for sharing all of this with us!
    Keep up the great video content, and you know I'm right there with you all.

    That was awesome, all that cool stuff finally seeing the light of day after who knows how long. Kinda makes me wanna find an abandoned NASCAR hauler to dig thru. As for picking something to keep from this one, I'd probably go for one of the stickers, one of the toy cars or one of the Pontiac hats

    Absolutely Amazing Video….I was so excited just to see the old hauler in your last video and now this one going through everything..Not to mention yous talking to DW on the phone…How cool was it to be able to sift through the DW history…I sure hope the old hauler finds its way into restoration….Far as if I could keep on thing, it’s such a tough one since just about everything was cool…I’d say I’d keep the drive shaft, merch is cool as hell, but an actual car part, doesn’t get any better…Thanks to both of you for bringing back history….You must have been like a kid in a toy store…
