Man...what a contrast between how these two drivers carry themselves on AND off the track. Congrats #34!
Actually both drivers are whiny crybabies.
Stand up racers. Michael is so humble. Denny checks "I didn't see that info on numbers" from the numbers guy. So glad Denny had him on after a fresh win.
I think McDowell and Front Row has come a long way from where it was 10 years ago as an organization. Yes, they are still no 23XI, Hendrick, Trackhouse like team but they are in the right direction. They aren't a team that sits in 20th or worse every week and can usually compete for top 10s or 15s. Also, they have a great Truck program for Zane Smith. While they aren't a super power team, I wouldn't necessarily call them a small team anymore. Michael's done a great job with what he's done at Front Row (and just think, I remember they days when he was a start and park driver for Phil Parson's racing). Great win Michael!
Yep Phil actually did McDowell a huge favor by keeping him in the Cup garage even if not racing. Michael Waltrip had sort of set that whole thing up and sold/gave Phil a bunch of old cars; Phil had been doing something similar for several years on the Nationwide side since the economic crash, and been criticised for it, but it nonetheless kept dozens of people employed and kept a guy like McDowell in the garage every week.
Even though 23XI is a JGR satellite team, and trackhouse has loads of backing from Chevrolet, I wouldn't hardly include them in a sentence with Hendrick and JGR (21 Championships combined)
I love Michael McDowell. Such a good guy and well deserving. He’s very underrated. I’m glad to see him get some Recognition
I didnt realize how many wins Front Row actually has. 4 is amazing. Most people think of them as a team that is 15-20. They have won 4 times!
4 Cup wins including a Daytona 500, a Truck championship, they have quietly put together a very solid resume
Congrats to McDowell!!! Always exciting to see guys not frequently in contention for the dub get to celebrate a win! Very cool to have his family there this time too. And, cool of Denny to bring Michael on the show!
As an SEC fan, its kinda like watching Vanderbilt get a win. Even if they beat your team, you are still glad to see those guys get a W.
I love that Michael is getting his flowers so to speak the past couple seasons. Just a great guy and talented driver.
Yeah
I watched Michael McDowell in high school racing at the dirt tracks in Arizona. He lived right down the street from where I am
Michael seems like one of those guys that you could sit down and talk to for hours about anything and he would listen.
W Micheal Mcdowell Been pulling for this man for so long lol
I was cheering for McDowell to win at Indy despite being a Chase fan an knowing he needs that win bad. I just love seeing dudes like McDowell win races. It feels great, the man’s got 2 cup series wins now. That’s more than a lot of people can say 😆🤘
He won a 500 at Daytona and at the Brickyard. He didn't win insignificant races
Great respects to McDowell.
Always liked Mcdowell, glad he's been on the upward trend!!!!
McDowell is one of those drivers that you know he has the talent but, like he said, needs to put the whole race together. They did this past weekend. It showed his talent as well as how much this car has helped level the playing field. FRM has some great speed this year, they have come a long way in the last 3-4 years. All their efforts are showing off. If they keep at it, it'll only get better. I just wish this happened for him about 10 years ago. So, they did it last weekend on the road course, think they can do it again at The Glen? He's having the best year of his career and Ford has now won the last 3 races.
I agree. McDowell is underrated and you have to remember, he's 38. I think if he were in so many other garages 10 years ago, even 5, he would not be a mid-20s pack runner on any given day and showing his talent on super speedways and road courses (which reinforces he's solid all around IMO). We'd be seeing him in VL way more.
The 23 being out on owners goes to show what Josh Berry did during his stint. Jordan Taylor had a good run too, and they day Corey Lajoie drove Bubba lost brakes
There's the odds, but this is Why they have the races! Michael has the trophy!! Delighted for him!
Congrats Michael McDowell!!
Front Row has come along way over the years. Congratulations to the Team The Owners and to McDowell! There is never an I in team.
Way to go Michael
Great interview with a stand up guy !!
Congratulations Mikey Mac. Monster drive. I'd like to see Nascar open up the boot at Watkins Glenn.
Hey Denny! How does that crow taste? You should have known Michael has been a good road racer. He was due for a win.
2 wins in 10 years..... Only 4 wins total for FRM. Statistically, his chances of winning compared to Elliott were pretty low.
McDowell is a great person and it was fun to watch him spank the big money teams.
I would love to see McDowell, Chase, and Daniel go at it again at Walkin Glen to settle that battle. It was fun watching them battle for the lead at Indy. To me I always felt the best races at a road course was when 1-6 are all within 1-2 seconds of each other side by side fighting the whole race. When its anyone game and not just 1 guy 6 seconds ahead of 2nd.
I can't wait for the Glen, seeing those 3 battle for the lead all last week was great. McDowell starts 3rd again too...
having svg in nascar is blessing in disguise for nascar one thing nascar should have 50% oval 50% road course, roval
McDowell kinda reminds me of Yeley in a way. Underperformed for the most part in good rides, now is very talented in mid tier rides. I'd love to see him get a top ride, he doesn't have many years left for that.
I’m only here for Michael McDowell. Otherwise I avoid these Denny podcasts like the plague. McDowell is such a good human being. So glad he’s had another huge success.
I'd like to get Denny's opinion heading to the Glen as an owner seeing as Wallace is in a precarious situation. Elliot's got great odds to win and bump him out, it's one of Suarez's best tracks who made up 35 points at Indy while Bubba was having an exceptional day by RC standards, and what he thinks going into Daytona given the 23 is more than double the average finish this year (25.0) to last year (12.4) at Superspeedway races
Personally I think it's a relief to the 23 that McDowell won, because if he didn't and Elliot was able to get the win the 23 car would be only 24 points to the good on top of Suarez being 28 out. This way at least he's only racing one guy for points and it's the guy who doesn't have great results at the Superspeedways
Brickyard wins:
McDowell - 1
Hamlin - 0
Much respect to McDowell however, Hamlin 50 wins McDowell-2 remember McDowell has in cup for a while
@@slackhammer4467 yeah but Hamlin never did win at the Brickyard and McDowell has
@@slackhammer4467
Not to mention, DH has been in a powerhouse car his whole career, McDowell spent like five years as a start and park
@@timpowell1429 McDowell said it’s not the real Brick yard it’s doesn’t carry the same weight. Like the the Daytona 500 vs the fall 400 race same track different prestige
@@slackhammer4467 McDowell also hasn't been in good equipment for his career and Hamlin has been in his whole career and Hamlin is one of the best if not the best to never win a championship
Glad for McDowell and giving Denny some crow to eat.
Shout out to Denny's cohost for being a Rush fan, love the shirt
I'd like to thank the Nascar officials for NOT throwing out the yellow flag in the closing laps when Elliott was not able to close the gap to contend for the win. Happy for McDowell!
I like this guy. Congrats!
Nice to see Michael win.
Best show Denny has ever had
My question would be in your percentage in your statistics that you do. Do you incorporate the top five underdogs that might make it in to the playoffs?
Michael, I will have to disagree with you that SVG should “never” have won at Chicago(he did!) but at the same time it was a street course that no one else had been at (he is a street course specialist!) the cars are mechanically very similar (the type he typically drives,not so much as far as aero) between the wet track going to dry and his experience he had just as good a chance if not better than most of the field there at Chicago.
I wouldn't call him a street course specialist, hes more of a jack of all trades.
Michael said the exact same thing you just did lol
New car, new tyres, sitting in the opposite side of the car to what he normally drives, different pit stop requirements and never driven on that track and still win. That drive by SVG was amazing and should not be reduced by excuses.
@@gotemlookin20 I don’t know what you were listening too but he said the opposite of what I was saying
I wish more drivers had Michaels drive as to being mad ,to want to fight back and get better, and say SVG should not have won.Those that don’t have that attitude are getting paid too much!
He is a good driver I love to see the small teams win pisses off the big teams
7:50 Glad I'm Not The Only One That Misses The Daytona Road Course 💯
Good job Michael 💪💪
Congratulations Michael
I look forward to watching SVG pass McDowell, like why mention him lol
@@rubenmay5 I get it , I may have mistaken ill will towards SVG. But I’d would have thought McDowell was giving it all he had , the notion he upped his game seems silly. I would have thought these guys are 100 or wouldn’t make it in cup long
McDowell doesn't keep much. Denny keeps his Daytona 500 cars in the living room
To be fair, Danny Hamilton said the guy with teh stage points makes it. McDowell very much took the bulk of stage points at Indianapolis.
Denny is a numbers guy? Number of championships 0 easy to count lol
Dale Jr is a hall of famer how many Cup championships do he have? Mark Martin has how many? Don’t worry I’ll wait
@@slackhammer4467 I don’t see Denny Hamlin winning a championship. I feel like the reason Denny Hamlin gets brought up more often is that he is still current, won more than those two and a lot of people find Mark Martin and Dale Earnhardt Jr more likeable. I don’t mind Denny Hamlin for the record. But I’m just going off from what I have seen.
I said it before, counting McDowell out on two road courses was idiotic.
Congrats Michael. Not looking too good for Wallace.
Question for Denny. At Daytona, final lap, you're pushing Gibbs in 1st place with Wallace behind you. What are you going to do?
Truex getting pushed by Hamlin in the final lap of the Daytona 500 with Bubba behind him in 3rd
Truex and Bubba looking for there 1st wins in the 500
Win, of course. His job is to win races, not push his teammates to do it.
Denny wrecks them both to get himself the win
@@kyleurrutia8262 lose money if you wreck ur own car and have a very pissed off teammate in the end
Easy. He will try to beat both of them. They will have to beat him to win.
I like Chase but even if he wins this weekend and gets into the chase I don’t think this year he is strong enough to win the championship. Congrats Michael well deserved.
Why does denny hang up pictures of him face to face with people he dumped on the wall?
What if the Daytona road course replaced the Indy road course. You do Watkins Glen them Daytona rc then the speedway for the cutoff
Great interview. Can we get MTJ and your mom back next?
MTJ doing dennys mom?😂
Keep having guests please
I would be up for that
Denny is such a Pickle Kisser!
So are you 😂
Chase Elliot has also had the best equipment, Research and Development, Engines...... Lets be real huh?
And? Has he not done anything with it during his career?
Get Chris Buescher on
Word on the street is Denny wants to sign ryan preece as soon as possible
Looking at preece's career CUP record it's no wonder so many CUP teams are trying to get him 💪
He's terrible 🤣
Lol what street you on? Preece has truck series talent at best. He has no business in cup.
Did he like a post?
Haha
What a bigotted thing to say BIGOT
❤
& race wins in 5 yrs? SVG had 21 race wins out of 34 starts in 2021
McDowell is absolutely correct!!! Every single cup driver should have been fired up about SVG dominating that race! Just like every fan was fired up about Toyota coming in to the sport! SVG drove great, but American drivers let a foreign driver stomp them in their own game, and they should be motivated to make sure that doesn't happen again to the best of their ability!
SVG didn't "dominate" the Chicago road course. He only led 3 laps the entire race. He ran top 5 until the end of the race. Also, SVG has considerably more road racing experience than most of the drivers in the Cup Series.
Still hate Denny but I want to hear what Michael has to say.
Why not have both oval and road races at Indy
Are you hiring Michael?
Trophy spanking!
Denny? Do you think McDowell is one of those guys who can win but gets better with time and becomes a threat to win every week, mirroring what say Bobby Allison and Harry Gant did?
Could be possible. And I would even include Denny Hamlin himself in that mix too.
McDowell dominated that race.
“ 1:02 I’ve never had a car that good” well how cheated up was it
It passed post race inspection so, I reckon it was legit.
@@user-fm1dd8bo3i they all cheat. You’ve heard Junior.12 + years of racing and he says this about his car. Rigged like the 01 Pepsi 400
Dimmy is detramental
The Indy or Daytona "road course" aren't road courses. Neither are Rovals.
Anything with banked turns is not a road course.
Gee, Denny, if you acted like this at the track, I might be able to stand you. But you don’t, so I don’t.
Next gen car and 9 just do not win, and glad cause i love to read on the comments his crybabies try to find all kind of excuses; like he didn't win cause there where backpackers in front.
It was a great impressive race and Michael McDowell can only be proud of his trophy, a small team winning is almost a miracle nowadays.
As for the Nascar fans that only want to watch wrecks; better watch demolition derby instead.
Thank you to Dirty Mo media for having people on their own show or on their shows. I left NASCAR after Dale Earnhardt Sr pass away. I lost all interest in. I left NASCAR and put my money in other sports. College Football ,Atlanta Braves, Atlanta Falcons. Now Dale Jr brought back a little spark of love For NASCAR. But NASCAR is doing a terrible job of keeping. The cancel woke culture is off putting in a sport that just does not need it. We can make a product or kill a product with Budweiser as a example, we have the power of the purse. So Go Woke we will make you go broke. We have gotten away from what the bible teaches us about forgiveness. “For if you forgive other people when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you.”
Hot take: Driver standings suck and should be removed
I’m glad to know one of the drivers was pissed about SVG winning cause I know I was lmao I was not a fan of him showing up and beating our drivers like that on his first try man
It's so cool that Michael McDowell's Indy trophy at least partially covers up those stupid ostentatious microphone arms.
Haha haha
I hate the Indy "oval". It's the worst track in existence. I'm not sure why it's so historic. It sucks!
Hamlin is a numbers guy! He’s a freaking zero !!!
If Chase Elliot were not the son of Bill Elliot, he would not be driving a Nascar race car.
Guy is one of the most talented drivers in the sport and you say that, classic
Won the cup a few years ago they cry Mickey Mouse. Was the dominant car and led points all year long last year including the regular season title and he gets bashed. Peope are just gonna be haters with him unfortunately
@@IdiotsInCarsFan so let’s talk total wins then hot shot. Less than 5 ahead of Elliott and started earlier. Puts them in the same ballpark. Find a new slant dumb ass
@@IdiotsInCarsFan I bet you're that person that posts a clip on r/idiotsincars contributing to an accident by honking their horn instead of hitting the brakes when another car makes a mistake in a merge or pulls out in traffic.
Dude has 2 Cup Wins , not that great of an accomplishment for a Cup driver 😂
At least Michael McDowell isn’t a hype show.
@@bighand1530 he cant be hype because he doesnt win often enough. He a nobody as far as Nascar Stars go.
@@mrwinston_thepug What about for drivers who have won the same amount and less that gets more attention?
@@bighand1530 well apparently they arent great either even though you have not mentioned names.
How many have you won cowboy? How many trophies you got in your foyer?
I don't care how boring the race is, if we're going to Indy it has to be on the oval. Nobody cares about the road course.
Let's see who wins SVG or another NASCAR Regular at Watkins Glen, next year. Your win was not on a REAL Road Course, but, nice mid-oval win. 1 win and done, sadly, those odds are against him making it to the 2nd round because it will be checkers or wreckers. I don't think Chase will win at Watkins Glen. McDowell will NOT win at Daytona....Hendrick Chevy...
Go figure Denny being wrong again.
Shout out to letting bigots slide in ya comments like its comfy come on dale... rwgulate these bigots
Just bc we hate bubba don’t mean we’re bigots
@@killamindedmusic4220I don't hate anyone except those that label everyone as a bigot.
@Problematic4u Nope, just a troll
bro im a straight up NAZI. I'm the one who tied that noose on that garage door.
@@killamindedmusic4220 everybody has haters I seriously doubt Bubba care that you hate him. He’s not caring all the way to the bank
