    If there's one thing this series has taught me, it's this: No, Richard Petty was not the driver he once was - and neither was Petty Enterprises tbh - but if the engine held together, if Richard himself could go the distance, and if he didn't get swallowed up in someone else's accident, he'd usually still be good enough to get the 43 into the top 15-20. There are Cup teams today that would LOVE to have a driver that could deliver that kind of result on a weekly basis. Makes you wonder what could have happened if a higher-tier team (Hendrick, Junior Johnson, etc.) were the ones fielding the 43 car from '86 to '92...

    Why is the title of this vid..."Final Year(S) of Richard Petty's career" ? This only covers ONE "Year" (1992). I want to see earlier YearS (plural). There's already a ton of "Fan Appreciation Tour" vids out there.

    Wow! This was a great series! I became a Petty fan in the late 80’s cause my parents got me a toy 43 car and I wanted to see it on TV. When I discovered he wore a cowboy hat and boots (I’m a ranch kid) he instantly became my favorite I knew nothing of his career at the time. The resurgence of PE in the 90’s happened while I was in high school. Learning about his career also led me to become interested in the history of nascar. If it was for Petty racing those twilight years I would of never become a Petty fan or a nascar fan. I still support the #43 and the rest of the race team to this day.

    8:31 Kyle Petty needs to have that win revoked. He intentionally dumped Dale Earnhardt AND Davey Allison and caused Allison to get hurt. It could've been a lot worse for Davey or Dale at those speeds too

    • @NascarNick2488
      @NascarNick2488  Рік тому +1

      It actually wasn’t intentional. If you watch the final lap, Kyle took the air off Dale’s spoiler and Dale got loose and spun and then coming to the finish, that was just door to door racing and they made contact and Davey unfortunately got the worst of it

    • @codyC423
      @codyC423 Рік тому

      ​@@NascarNick2488We'll agree to disagree here. You can clearly see Kyle make contact with Dale's left rear before he gets loose. It also was more of a snap oversteer like he'd been bumped vs the car slowly stepping out like it got aero loose. Either way, I've watched this series since the first video, awesome job man, you've earned another sub! Keep up the great work man

    The King's Final Crusade! Long live the King! But Richard would make it clear that he wasn't going anywhere, he stayed in the sport as a car owner and as an ambassador to the sport.

    In my opinion, he should have retired after 1987 or 1988 but run a limited schedule from 1989-1992. That way, the season finale at Atlanta can still be memorable for it being his last race and Jeff Gordon's first race and the battle for the Winston Cup championship between the late Davey Allison and Alan Kulwicki and Bill Elliott
