A bunch of nice stuff you say about Ricky Rudd one of my favorite drivers of all time I got to meet him many times at Riverside International Raceway great driver on and off that track have a good one keep up the good work and God bless
@@jchayes7325 Thank you JC! It’s very hard to find anything bad to say about the guy regardless. Solid dude, solid driver. Very cool that you got to visit riverside raceway. It’s very unfortunate that the place is now one of those California mega malls. Very special track with a lot of cool history.
@ClumsyCardboard I've been a NASCAR fan since 1965 my first race was at Riverside International Raceway and I went there at least once a year until she closed in 1988 I've also been to Ontario Motor Speedway until it closed in 1980
Top job. Ricky Rudd without doubt. Nascar most underated Driver. Should have had at least another 20 wins to his name. Could have easily been Richard childress cup winning driver for many years had things stayed as they were. I mean in my opinion. At least 5 or 6 championships Daytona 500 victory for sure. In the end one hell of a Nascar legendary Driver.
@@DarrenHaw Thank you Darren! I certainly believe he would’ve had at least one championship for sure. Several would’ve been also absolutely feasible. It’s also not hard to imagine a very successful RCR career, so another very good point there. Still, He’s been long overdue to be put into the hall of fame, so I’m glad he’s finally in! Makes me wonder who’s next to get in.
Haha, i was starting to wonder if people thought i was dead! But yeah, A lot of life things happened again so i had to quash those before I could finish this up. Plus, I had to make sure I had the details right. Hopefully the new more.. "Clinical" format works. I didn't want to rely too much on footage this time. It's great to hear from ya!
I will never understand that Rudd / Allison call. It was either that exact lap, or the lap before, but Tommy Kendall (driving the Mello Yello car because Kyle Petty was hurt) took out Mark Martin. I don't understand why he wasn't black flagged as well.
Dale Earnhardt had zero intentions of retiring at the end of 2002. Where the hell did you get that? I know for a fact he had plans to drive until 2005 and, only if he was running crappy would he retire then.
Ricky Rudd had my whole houses attention for years, my whole family love him!! Still do, thank you Ricky!!!
Great Ricky Rudd always a great driver always have been a fan thanks for the video
@@titansville1 And thank you for watching it! I’m glad you felt it was up to snuff. He’s a hell of a driver, that’s for sure.

My favorite driver, the sweetest looking car Tide Ford Thunderbird.
It's hard not to like that paint, that's for sure. Even harder to dislike rudd!
Nice Biography about Ricky!
Thank you jack!
Shame that your videos doesn't even appear on my recommendations

@@dwkulcsar thank you! I think this will be the format going forward.

Strovich here from Sim Racing Nation. Nice job man. Way to put the work in.
@@strovich Thank you Strovich! Much appreciated. Keep up your good work also.
I was wondering where have you been cuz it’s been a while. Now I see why.
Welcome back, you Clumsy Card Board!

@@ClumsyCardboard you too, man! Good to see ya again
16:48 the 28 car was owned by Rainer Racing at that time.
My apologies. I guess that's the Mandela effect that comes from JD Putting his name on as many cars in the field. Thank you!
@@ClumsyCardboard it happens. The only one I know for a fact he owned was the #2 car that was formerly owned by Rod Osterland.

@@ericjefferson9684 very true. There was a lot of weird miscues from officials back then. Robert black especially.

@@539strt How do you know that “For a fact”? His contract due for renewal in 2002 or 2003. He already wanted out of a full time schedule anyway.

Damn good idea! I'll put em on the list.
