    Scott didn't always do poorly in NASCAR. Later on, he would do really well in some road course races in the Cup series. In fact he had three top 5's and five top 10's in those races.

      Was it Scott that was driving a Juicy fruit car in Busch (maybe Nationwide) series, leading a race, and got nailed by Montoya?
      Hope you're good.

      @@TheSaltBoiCometh Yes, 1st I met his son. I was there to fill their propane tank (Its an underground tank), but it was flooded due to rain storms in the area, so he got Scott out there, and yup met him. (1st tried to siphon the water out with a hose but didn't work, then he bought out a pump) But I didn't ask him about anything. Kind of want to be professional so focused on my job. But his Ganassi shirt he was wearing was a giveaway.

  • @John-tr6of
    @John-tr6of 3 роки тому +1

    I think it's a bit unfair to call Pruett a bust in that he drove one season for a brand-new team that had never run in NASCAR before with probably average equipment.
    Perhaps if Cal Wells had gotten him some experience in the Busch Series in 2000 rather than go straight to the Winston Cup Series, that would have helped also.
    The final point that needs to be made is he could have won twice. He was leading in Texas before Dale Jr. spun him and he was leading at Infineon before Gordon bumped him, so he was a bit unlucky there.

    • @NorthStarBlue1
      @NorthStarBlue1 3 роки тому

      Agreed. Wells definitely wasn't running a start-n-park operation with last year's equipment, but it was pretty obvious that a new team with an inexperienced driver wasn't going to stand much of a chance.
      I've sometimes wondered how Pruett would have fared in he'd spent a year with a more established team after the 2000 season. Not even necessarily a Roush/Hendrick/RCR car, but just a team that had been around for a while and wasn't under so much pressure to prove themselves.

  • @AEMoreira81

    Scott Pruett, and Colin Braun as well, just didn't have a stile that translated well to short races. Endurance racing was Pruett's forte and is Braun's forte. Colin Braun is another one you could do...he ended up back in endurance racing, where he actually got a win before the age of 18.

    Scott Pruett honestly could’ve dominated if he entered NASCAR Right. Pruett made 2 Major mistakes for his rookie season
    1.He Jumped Straight into cup-Pruett decided to jump straight into the big leagues. He didn’t even attempt a Part-time schedule in The Busch, or Truck Series
    2.He Joined mid pact Team-Not only was PPI Motorsports a non contender for most of it’s existence, it was a brand new team founded months before the 2000 season.
    based on history a New Driver + a New team = a lot of wrecked race cars & unfortunately Pruett is no different.

    My gosh!! He was horrible, I remember he wasn’t let go from the 32 Tide Team until middle of January of 2001, one month before the Daytona 500. I can’t imagine another season like this

    Honestly, Scott is a fantastic driver, but it really seems like so many of the wrecks were not of his own doing. A good 65% of them, he gets hit or dumped. They had speed at times, but I think the costs of all the wrecked cars and having to build new cars just got to be too much.

    I know this is a NASCAR channel but I think Scott Pruett was also a bust as a TV announcer during the Lemans broadcast. He wouldn't stop talking about his exploits in the Daytona 24 hour race.

    I was watching the Phoenix race from 2000 yesterday and he crashed. I thought to myself that Scott Pruett needs a "NASCAR busts" video made. His career in NASCAR was truly abysmal. Otherwise, he's had an amazing racing career.

    His season was so bad that he DNQed at Watkins Glen, when he's a road course ringer. That's really unfortunate because Pruett is a great driver. It's just that he was thrust into a full year worth of top level stock car racing when he needed to have a full year in Busch with some Cup races instead.

    Again, i wouldn'y call him a bust, he was just not prepared for NASCAR as he was mostly used to driving sports car racers at that time, he knew that after several races, like in the case of Sam Hornish, Juan Montoya, Danica Patrick, Kimi Raikkoneen, and several other drivers well known in other series, NASCAR is a whole different breed, take a look at Earnhardt, Marlin, DJ, DW, Richard Petty, Jeff Gordon, and many greats, it took a year or two to get used to racing stock cars, had Pruett raced in the lower tier NASCAR races first, he might have had a better career in Cup
