Roush Racing's Former NASCAR Shop History Tour: Mark Martin & Jeff Burton's Glory Days Built Here!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 2 чер 2023
- Jack Roush started his NASCAR Cup series team with Mark Martin back in 1988. Ten years later THIS building became home to the all new Roush Racing team in the 99 car with Jeff Burton. This was a TOTALLY separate operation from the original teams in Liberty NC for two years until Mark and the 6 team moved in with Jeff for 1998. In 1998 Mark Martin had one of the most dominant seasons of his career winning 7 races and 22 top fives. This building in Mooresville NC is where it all came from. Jeff Burton won his very first cup series race here with our tour guide Tony "Rambo" Liberati working on the crew. After Jack built the current hoe of RFK Racing in 2001-ish this facility became home to the Busch (Xfinity) series and Craftsman Truck series teams! Now it his home to SRI Performance and you can walk in to see it for yourself 5 days a week!

I love your shows. Brining yourself back in time by respecting and embracing the great things the great people before us did has the same effect on me. I'm a huge Nascar fan and former local driver. I urn for the days pre Dale's accident. It's all went to trash.
@@Stapleton42 Is there an update coming about Lake Speed's motor in his Purex car on the race track. Thanks for all your great work!!
The fact you go the extra mile to give your content additional context (pics, etc) is exactly why we are all here! Noted and appreciated! 🙌
Thanks man I am glad it is appreciated
If course more Rambo! He seems like a great guy and certainly is very down to earth.
You have made a reputable name for yourself with the NC racing community I can tell you that with all confidence! Great video!
Thanks man
I think this is very true. You've made a name for yourself doing this, and with each step you unlock more for your next piece.
Mitch, I'm right there with you. We long for the old days because those were the good days. Racing takes us back to a life we miss. Thank you for all you do!
I'm not a nascar fan anymore but the history is interesting to me. I like the stories and it's great seeing where everything happened. It brings them to life because you can physically see it
Thanks man 💪🏻
Same here. Just got into this channel and the Dale Jr podcast. Brings back memories and I love just seeing people talk about it because you can tell just how special those times were. Nascar today is rubbish.
As a diehard Mark Martin and Roush Racing fan. Thank you 😊.
Now I understands Mark's amazement when he eventually wound up racing for Hendrick. Roush was old school, while Hendrick was NASA.
Thanks man. Mark had raced at the current RFK shop which is much bigger than this one. I wouldn’t say it’s on par with hendrick though
I agree with your assessment of why we all love the NASCAR history. But also because old NASCAR was really just that damn cool and fun to be a fan of honestly.
This is great Mitchell! Im sure even a lot of our current employees didnt know about a lot of the history that was made here over the years!
We are here to inform! Thank you guys.
As a 46 year old machinist/ tool and die maker and car guy, I’ve built motors, worked on the cars and raced the cars. I’m also a history buff from the south so all this just fascinates me. To put the old places with the old faces I’ve heard about since I was a little kid is beyond cool. So your side bar about the escape to a simpler time really tracks. Thanks for doing all of this.
I've said it before. You two produce the best Nascar content of all the You Tube channels. Including Dirty Moe media which would be the favorite for most Nacasr fans. It is due to the nostalgic history, the people that you manage to meet and interview, the respect that goes both ways, the locations, the professional coverage. It's all great stuff. Just like Nascar was during the era.
Thanks again. "One at a time", well said.
ua-cam.com/video/bgPMeOtcIMI/v-deo.html
thank you so much randy
Can't tell you guys how much your history vidios mean to me, they all are fantastic every thing you do. Great job guys.
They explore the days when racing was an everyman sport.
Big money turns everything into a playground for the elites.
That SRI shop is a racers haven. I could spend all day in there!
Mitchell, for me, I'm an 84 model, so the 90s were a time where I fondly remember watching races every weekend with my dad. I was raised on NASCAR and it will always hold a special place in my heart. I joined the Air Force in 2003 and have spent most of my time in the service stationed in Asia, where races are broadcast live on Monday mornings while we're either at physical training or at work. Also, my dad passed in 07, so my younger years and memories of my time spent watching NASCAR with him were such a happy time in my life. Like you said, it was different before all this crap was constantly thrown in our faces...a simpler time indeed. Also, I'm a history nut. Your channel combines two of my deep interests. Like I've commented before, keep up the amazing content. Love what you and Logan bring to this community!
Thank you for your service Jason. To this country and our channel!
My dad worked Exide from 1996-2002 so we were huge Burton fans. We went to all of the Phx International Raceway races and most of the Las Vegas races including the inaugural race in Vegas. This video would thrill my dad if he were still with us, so I’ll enjoy it for the both of us. Thank you!!
Thanks man!!
'Comfort food'... yeah... that's about right. As a child growing up in the 70s, I got to watch the rise of NASCAR... I even spent a few years in Mooresville chasing the dream... but I'm sorry... it's over and all we have is our memories... Thank you for what you do once again...
Dang Mitchell, you continue to put out some of the best stuff on UA-cam. You’re batting a thousand and be careful Hollywood doesn’t come calling.
I really appreciate the effort and hard work on all of your productions.
Thank you Randy 💪🏻
Dang, Jack Roush immediately put that dude on his own private jet to fly home when his dad had a heart attack! That's a solid boss.
I am that 30 something that still tells ya about my badass years and yes I graduated in 04 and this takes me back that's exactly why I watch
Rambo is great guy!! Him Buddy Parrott and Robert Yates truly legendary!!
Rambo is one cool dude. I could listen to him tell these old stories for days.
I'm not a truck driver but I am absolutely astounded and in love with the Penske hauler! I've been trying to work out buying a new to us Simi...(My tiny little fiance) she's been driving for six years now and I think it's time for our own truck. Noone cares I know but I'm just writing for the algorithm. I saw that the more words in a comment the better for you. Seriously that truck is badass
we appreciate you man
I am fascinated by the old history because we would never understand how we got to the present without the past. History is what built the present state of Nascar. We need more people like you Mitchell, and Logan. Without you guys, we would have lost most of this history by now. Thank you
You are right.. those days of racing were the best.. cars, drivers, crews all were the originals.. grassroots of racing!!!
As a old nascar fan I appreciate the videos my guy 🙌🙌 a lot of history gets forgotten and it's good to see people out there keeping the roots alive.
Thanks man!
It's amazing how these guys like Tony Liberati can remember all this stuff so vividly and walk around a shop that doesn't house racecars anymore and still know where most everything is. Then again, I could probably do that with some of the places I used to hang out in and be around as a kid.
Mitch your the only one telling these nascar gold stories keep up the good work
Love the old stories and how things were in the glory days of nascar!
Comfort food? Yes I agree with your analogy. It takes our minds off of what we may look at as negative or troubling, and brings us back to a time we may have been more stress free. I like it. Another great video bud.
Thank you Kevin
Rambo is by far one of the best story tellers on the channel so far, definitely a fan. He did a fantastic job! Nice job Rambo! Hope to see you soon.
I think that its like me and Nintendo vidogames and NASCAR almost like its a good friend or something to come back to. It just really brings me back to when times were much simpler and I didn't have any obligations and I had my racecars or my Nintendo or Playstation or whatever and just let loose and have fun. That is what these race shop videos do for me too, it helps me understand what NASCAR was like in its heyday and how things came to be when I started watching the sport in 1992. You become attached to that because it was a part of your childhood and your daily life. One of these days if you ever have children or grandchildren you are going to tell stories.
I absolutely agree about the history aspect. Guess that goes for most nostalgia. Buddy Parrot was great. Anyone that could take Derrick Cope to victory lane a few times is worthy of respect.
This 72 year old really appreciates your trips down memory lane of our early years. I’m sure in my 40+ year collection of racing magazines there are many photos of shops from NASCAR’s past. Tim in northern TN
thank you very much!!
I can't wait that last valvoline car of Martin's was 1 of my favorite cars of all time its number 4 behind the 58 of the great flipper phil andross (local track champ from the 80's) the black 3 of dale sr and the dale jr bud car
Yes it’s comfort looking back at the way NASCAR was.
Rambo is the best. Seems like a guy who gets along with everyone. Keep it up guys, You’re doing great!
Mitchell, I agree 100%! I am older than you, I graduated high school in 98. These videos take me back to simpler times in my life and the times I was so completely obsessed with NASCAR.
The extra effort of buying the magazines and finding those photos is greatly appreciated. You're literally preserving and sharing this history that might go unappreciated, otherwise.
Thank you very much!
Never knew about Rambo......awesome to learn about him because I'm a huge buddy Parrott and Harry Hyde fanatic
You’re absolutely right Mitchell. It does bring a lot of us back to our childhood or as you said a simpler time. And we can learn so much from these stories. Thanks again for all the work you’re putting in 🙏🏼
Mitchell and Logan I love that you do this vlog, you keep the dream alive......one never knows what one will turn up!
hell even I learn things by watching!.........
thanks man!
What I enjoy about these videos is the memories of my favorite drivers as a teenager. It's awesome watching.
Once again... OUTSTANDING CONTENT. Watching in the United Kingdom.
I laughed when you commented about “the guy talking about High School football when your 45”. I am with you all the way. I’ve had to listen to the “wana-bes” & "Glory days" my whole working career. The back story you bring is excellent.
And thank you YT for letting the story tellers have their platform.
Thanks man!
not only the buildings but the people behind the scenes like Rambo! great job!
Thanks man!
Your reflections on yourself and the history you discover is what makes your channel unique and interesting and is far too uncommon
Thank you very much. One person at a time it can change. That’s why I’m honest about it even though audience retention drops every time I start talking. Those people weren’t worth keeping around anyways
Mitch and Logan, thank you for your hard work. I the 2 of you do not document these people and their stories in a short time they will be lost forever. No one will have any clue about the passion and determination these individuals possess and the knowledge they have gained from a lifetime of hard work. That would be tragic.
It's cool to see how these buildings change over time and how they dont. Rambo is a cool dude and awesome guide. Thanks Mitchell and Logan.
Might get kind of old with me saying what a great job you do. This is the ERA I watched growing up I was in my early teens back then. I used to watch the races every weekend with my DAD But lost him in 2002. But it's Soo cool to see we're the cars came from I was seeing on TV
Bump steer-set up all of my cars too. Brings back memories setting bump steer, caster and camber
I think the history you are seeking is really searching for a connection to your childhood hero’s. I know watching your videos take me back to when these guys where larger than life characters. The more you learn, the more we learn the more we get to know the people involved. I find it fascinating to hear the stories, see the shops. It is amazing what these people did and the history they made. Thank you for hunting this down and documenting the history of truly the golden age of Nascar.
Connect with that and learn how to become that for a future generation. Pass the torch.
I'm an old stock car fan that loves the history and nostalgia. These shop tours are priceless. You get into the good stuff like the tool box and the breaker box. You two have a great channel. Keep up the good work.
I'm partial to the old Mac combination wrenches.
another great video with Rambo. crazy that 20+ years later all those tools were still there as well.
Both tours with Rambo were really cool to watch! Finding the engravings on the wrenches WOW. Think I woulda tried to buy the Robert Yates wrench from the guy--what a piece. Thhx!!
I love all this NASCAR history. The old names and b rolls of the cars definitely reminds me of a simpler time. I’d watch a video of a mailbox if it had some tie-in to an old NASCAR driver
I love your content and I agree 100% with you about why we love this NASCAR history stuff. It absolutely is a comfort food for me. And your next comment about just being good having your toy cars is exactly how I feel as a grown man still lol
You tell a historic tale of the sport, backed by first hand accounts from the folks that made it happen. I love your videos, what you post will be history forever. Please don't stop
We won't!
Really respect how you go back to the glory days of nascar .
Thanks man we appreciate you
Hey Mitchell, I totally get what you are saying about the escape from the daily bombardment of negativity. During the era that you work so hard to help us remember, I was consumed by racing, nascar,bush,arca and I was a crew member of a late model dirt car. Good times and certainly a much more enjoyable time to live. You keep doing what you do, don't question it. Ride the wave, and keep creating memories for you and Logan to enjoy, and share with us what you choose. Thanks for doing an job!
thank you Eddie!
My first memory's of Nascar was watch Dale Sr in the number 2 wrangler car. I know he raced before that but I was born in 1972. So I was very young,but I definitely remember it well. Dale Sr. Fan for most of his career and my life. Thank you for reminding me of all the great memories I have made
This was an amazing video down memory lane for me. My wife and I used to go what we called shop hopping back in the early 2000s and just go from shop to shop and made a lot of friends just doing what you're doing go?Running around and talking to whoever we could. Thank you for these memories that we never were able to document because that was before any social media. Loving the videos!
thank you Dave we appreciate you!
I like these shop tours and learning stories I hadn't heard before. I have watched Jeff Burton's full Cup career and the majority of his Busch career and had no idea he was a hands on guy and could set up his own car. These are the stories that have never been told. Mainstream NASCAR media represents these guys as golf shirts and pressed pants, not working men (and women) like us, which would give the average fan a connection to drivers.
You found your niche Mitch! Build videos are cool but there's thousands of channels that do that stuff.
You and Logan are really onto something here. Keep it up and you may be surprised where it gets you in a few years👍👍
the 90s were the best era for Nascar hands down, love all these vids, brings me back to the good ol days of playing with my racecars while the race was on tv
I loved stopping in Mooresville on my way home from Myrtle. We would hit Roush, Ricky Rudd, Sabco, the two Penske shops, Simpson world the hall of fame across from Roush, Memory lane museum, head out to DEI then finish up with lunch at Lancasters Bbq. It was a great time back in the mid to late 90s to be a race fan! Thanks for bringing back some great memories!
thanks man! Lancasters is still there and looks exactly the same
Watching these videos bring back a lot of nascar growing up in the early 2000 maybe a little late 90s
It was a more simple time then. I watch because I wasn’t into NASCAR, but I love all racing and it educates me on the names I heard when I was a kid. It would be awesome for you to get on the Dale Jr podcast.
Thank you for the videos and the cost of time and $ to create. It’s definitely not free on your end.
Have a great weekend!
thank you Matthew!!
We used to say "Been everywhere but the electric chair, Seen everything but the wind. Rambo is a cool dude. I guess I watch these because I loved the old Winston Cup days. Like many things in life I prefer those days and how people were. So you can say "you need to move on" but someday you might be doing the same damn thing. Great video Mitchell. I like to see Logan point things out and maybe be more "in" the revivals.
Yes that was the phrase he used I got it wrong lol. I like it when she speaks up too. Gotta get her to be more assertive!
I was living there in Mooresville in 2003- 2006 trying to make it in the industry. I lived next door to Carl Edwards at an apartment complex when he was running the 99 truck. I remember that being the shop they ran out of. I tried pretty hard to work there but never got the opportunity. I really miss those days sometimes.
As a 70 yr old man one thing I can appreciate is going back in time for things I never knew about or realized. Your channel accomplishments that for me and I can't thank you enough. Love every one of your videos!
thank you sir!
I was lucky enough to visit North Carolina and Virginia several times from 1999 to 2006. I went to all the race team shops I could find, this one included. I got to watch pit stop practice once, and got some lug nuts from the team. Slightly unrelated story, one year I went to Ultra Motorsports, and out in front of the main building there was a stack of race-used tires, some sheetmetal, including a couple of noses which they were just giving away. If only I didn't live in California! I ended up taking a tire used by the #2 truck team (Mike Bliss). I have it under another tire signed by RIchard Petty with a round piece of glass on top which I use to display some of my scale replicas. I have really fond memories of those times touring shops and going to Charlotte Motor Speedway and Martinsville Speedway. Great tour, and really I like your message in the middle of the video. Oh, and the "comfort food" analogy was spot on!
Man, it's so cool your doing these vids on Nascar. I was raised around circle track cars, I remember watching Petty and the Allison's way back when I was a kid. Sure wish we could go back to what Nascar use to be!
that break room he talking about is where about where we view our pit stop and critique sessions.
that extra room between fab and body was where all the pit carts and crash carts and stuff to load the haulers was.
Excellent as always. WoW, what a keep sake that Robert Yates wrench would be. He was my hero. Bet someone would pay big bucks for that.
BrotherMan you single-handedly have brought NASCAR history to life. I’ve been a track rat since 67 and fan through today. You have brought back the heart and soul of racing as it was not the shit show we see today. Just amazing what you have turned up to show people how things were, it will give directions to what could be ! Thanks Stapleton!
thank you jack !
Your comments starting at 13:34 are perfect! I'm 45 and my first race was 1993. A lot of technology is good and a lot of it is not good. It was a simpler time when there were less distractions i.e...cell phones. Can you imagine leaving your house now for a race and telling your girlfriend or wife "see ya when I get home. Love ya" and that's it? She had no choice but to wait until you got home and assume everything is ok.
Would love to have that Robert Yates Mac Tools wrench in a frame. If only that wrench could talk. Awesome job Mitchell and Logan. Us old timers appreciate all you do with the Nascar history. Keep up the great work!
Thanks man!! I would love to hang that thing up lol
Yes more with Rambo so glad you guys do what you do always a great watching.👌👍🇦🇺
Jeff Burton was/is my favorite driver of all time, thanks for this behind the scenes of the good ol Roush days… This is my favorite video of your guys’ yet and I’ve seen a lot of them! I’ll be honest I never thought I would see the old Exide #99 featured on this channel 😅. You can literally see this stuff nowhere else. Thanks Mitch and Logan you guys are doing the lords work 🙏
thanks man we are glad you're here!
It got crappy one person at a time and it can get better one person at a time ..... Solid my friend 💯💯💯
Really enjoy seeing all these old shops and hearing their history
I’m definitely going to be taking a drive to check this out. Mark was my favorite driver growing up. Maybe I’ll check it out after Cars and Coffee in a few weeks.
Keep digging up them nuggets. You're the only guy out there doing it. Good work.
Thank you for another race history video. I understand what you were saying about watching this stuff. It does bring back memories etc.. and how it makes you feel.
For me personally it brings back great memories of my dad and i watching the races on tv and going to the races.
Take care you both and thank you again!
thank you Ronald!
RAMBO!!! Yep downdraft booth floor grates...I remember when people were excited to pull the mist down and out instead of across the whole car to one end. Looking back to when the most important thing in life was actually building it and working with those that worked or made products we all used. I painted, wrenched, watched, learned! Good times. Honest trade among friendship! Got a famous tool box there. All my stuff is engraved ROB...gotta look in all the toolboxes you run into now too! There's a playlist name...."If these walls could talk"
PS black primer not the best basecoat choice for Pennzoil Yellow....chuckle! Thanks for the video Mitchell and Logan and enjoy the paradise weather this spring is giving!
Thanks man!! Yeah this one isn't going to be yellow at least not yet lol
i love your videos. i love the feeling of looking back to simpler times. little to no social media and to see our favorite drivers and teams bring back not only nascar memories but where you were and who you were with.
I appreciated all your videos and the work that you and your wife put into them. Keep them coming !!!
Thank you Donny!
13:40 that's why I watch these on Sundays, when there's hardly any "news". I can't help staying plugged into current events on weekdays, but this is definitely comfort food, a welcome break from the $#¡+ show. Thank you, Mitch and Logan. 💪🇺🇸👍
Thanks man we appreciate you
Can I just say thank you for your videos of the nascar magic era. Before the huge money come in. I love seeing these small shops making these super cars. I live in England born at never really get my coverage of nascar. Please keep them coming as I'm now hooked, dale snr is a freaking legend.
Thanks man we’re glad you’re here! Lots to be learned from the men of this era
I remembered those days. That was the beginning of some good yrs for Jack and his team.
I am in the Detroit area, and when Jack said N.C. was the new location. That changed everything. I was fortunate to be hired directly with Ford this week! Even though I am a "GM" guy. So happy for this!
Your love of NASCAR and my regions participation is re-lighting my NASCAR FIRE. I wish I had tickets to chi this weekend.
We love to hear that!
Good job ! I like Rambos Cup knowledge and memories of the people that he has worked with . Hard yes to more videos with Rambo
I like what you were saying around the 15:00 mark about why you like vintage Nascar. I feel the same way about some things from the past. I told you before, my dad is retired from GM dealership parts department. So i have a ton of memories of the parts departments he worked in and, to this day, parts departments feel like home to me. With that, the was always a lot of Nascar signs and merchandise around the dealers, so 80s and 90s Nascar is my favorite.
You're right, its comforting and almost like re-experiencing these eras of NASCAR (well, the 90s for me) with a new perspective. And also it's just super interesting to me because i have so much more appreciation and nostalgia for the cars and racers I grew up watching. It's really cool to hear these stories, and its even cooler when there's tangible evidence of them. I love when you are able to show the old photos compared to what the places look like today.
I definitely feel the comfort food is true.. the same reason we watch old movies from a younger time cause it gives that good feeling.
Love these videos! Really takes you back to the glory days of nascar. It’s cool to see and here the stories of some of my favorite drivers shops
You and your wife do a great job with this channel and your recalling of the history of this sport. I can appreciate it growing up in Spartanburg with the bud moore family and bud moore engineering from 69 to 96. Thanks for your content. I enjoy all your videos
Thank you Larry!
Once again a banger video. Thanks guys GREAT JOB!!! Your telling stories that I feel like nobody else is telling but everybody is interesting in
Our race shop was painted just like that room with the dark gray bottoms, red stripe and lighter gray on upper section.
