@@luisayalajr8139 I think it is to do with the feel of this actual race, a lot of people were expecting a win, especially MM and the other drivers, the build up, the drafting, and then the spectacular finish, you don't like it then that's fine, we all have our own opinions. I like Kevin Harvick so agreed I am a bit biased, but I actually wanted MM to win after all those years of trying and coming close... as did nearly everyone... that was MM's best shot, but it wasn't to be..... Kevin messed up the party ha ha.... hence it was a show stopper!
I watched this race live and my family came and just watched with me… The last lap really caught their attention and the same year they took me to my first race (of 3) at talladega… 1 hour away from my house
I felt for Mark Martin I really wanted to see him win 1 500 and I was hoping that NASCAR would've thrown the yellow flag when Kyle Busch spun. That being said, WHAT A FINISH!!!
@@rhys3089 I was just thinking that because so many cars wrecked at one time, but of course my 9-year-old self(I was 9 at the time) wasn't thinking about the wreck being behind them.
There's also more to it and how the exhaust is designed which is complicated to put in a comment section however the reason that used that exhaust in that era was because even though they are wide open with a restrictor plate, it makes the power evenly through the RPM band. Helps gain RPM back if they did have to crack out of the throttle also. From Spring 2004 through Spring 2007 at Daytona and Talladega the Hendrick cars actually had more the old style exhaust and it had a flatter sound. Next time anybody watches try to see if you notice how the Hendrick cars with a loud flat sound
The sound comes from The Collector pipe. The header pipes run into the exhaust pipe which meets The Collector and that's where that sound come from. It depends on how the baffles are designed inside the collector as the exhaust passes through those baffles and then exits

@@deeperllama6147 let's be honest, it's ALREADY hard to watch the current state of NASCAR lol. The fact of the matter is, newer fans who only know modern NASCAR (and still think it's good) NEED to see how GREAT it used to be to gain perspective on what they're seeing now. A lot of younger fans will see people like myself shitting on the current "product" (there's a word that should never be associated with legitimate auto racing), and say "You just don't like change, you stupid boomer! Get with the times!". Personally, I have zero issue with things changing or evolving with the times... when the things being changed make the sport better. But when the last 15+ years have been spent making changes that stifle innovation, fairness, and legitimacy... I tend to frown upon where we are versus where we came from lol.
I was at this race. Drunk as a skunk. Just remember never seeing JR again and not know what actually happened to him. Thanks to technology, I now know what happened. He ran into the back of rudd. He probably did it for Dale
The reason I'm here is because I watched a video from slap shoes and I had to see all of it for myself I'm just in the beginning where they're a wall trip and the other guys and messing around with those 15 second questions but I'm looking forward to the race let's see how it goes
This race would mark the first time since 2001 that FOX were able to outbid CBS for the rights, that they were the sole network to show the Daytona 500. And 2007 marked the return of ESPN broadcasting Nascar events, as they were outbided by TNT. NBC didn't want to bid for Nascar to be broadcast on NBC, which ment TNT would show all 6 races on TNT. Which ment, FOX would show the first half of the season, from the Daytona 500 - Dover, TNT getting the Summer races with Sonoma - Chicagoland and ESPN getting the Fall races with Indianapolis - Homestead. Which would stay that way till 2014.
ALMOST SQUEEZED HARVICK INTO THE WALL AND HERE COMES HARVICK THE 29 with Matt Kenseth. Harvick’s getting a run off turn 4. There will be a drag race all the way to the start/finish line! No caution, THEY’RE SIDE BY SIDE BACK TO THE LINE! Dark crash here they come checkered flag….. HARVICK!

1:58:45 to 1:59:00 is god tier meme potential
The same thing happened in the 2001 500
This is, without a doubt in my mind, the greatest race in nascar history
As a Harvick fan, I couldn't agree more.
completely agree, I use this race to introduce nascar to my mates in the UK, yes I am a british nascar fan. :)
Because of a finish? This 500 suck. 2002 Daytona 500 tops this race without that finish the 2007 had

Actually 45 minutes from my house
I hope we can get an HD version someday. This was a great race that lead to an amazing finish.
I remember this race very well. Went to my local flea market then got back home and watched the race. I was so excited about this particular 500
Thank you so much. Shouts from Mainz, Germany!
2000-2007 RIP those engine sounds
X pipes that's the secret behind this amazing sound
Watching this race back in the day with my siblings and my dad as an 8 year old really is a core memory
This is what started me as a Bowyer fan. I saw this on TV then I was at the Pepsi 400 later that year fully decked out in Bowyer 07 merch.
That friggin x-pipe exhaust is THE sound of NASCAR, but I love the dual exhaust of today.
I felt for Mark Martin I really wanted to see him win 1 500 and I was hoping that NASCAR would've thrown the yellow flag when Kyle Busch spun. That being said, WHAT A FINISH!!!
Why would u thrown a caution when there is two cars side by side coming to the line
@@rhys3089 I was just thinking that because so many cars wrecked at one time, but of course my 9-year-old self(I was 9 at the time) wasn't thinking about the wreck being behind them.
@@rhys3089 they've done it so often before and so often since
Joe Kaput there wouldn’t of been any point cause they where coming out of four, so when the leader crossed the line then caution should come out

We had it last season. I was at the MIS race, best race there I have ever seen last year
Did no one notice that not only did they wreck each other, but Kurt Busch and Tony Stewart qualified on the same row as each other
Kevin Harvick is my favorite driver but man I was absolutely heartbroken for Mark Martin here.
Just realized, Harvick won this race the same month and day Dale Sr. passed away.
Same with Austin Dillon in 2018
