  • It's just to bad that JR wasn't able to get a good run at the end.

  • Speakin' as a Jeff Gordon-fan, let me just say, Hell, yeah!

  • everyone knows who wins this race and this video was still 1000x more exciting than recent restrictor plate races. the tandem racing SUCKS! we need to get back to the pack drafting. hopefully we will this coming season. 16 days till the 500!

  • Oh, how I have missed the Pack Draft and the sound of those old engines. Hope that NASCAR will bring back the Pack Drafts or a variant of it anyway. 

  • Damn, that's a stupid race...

    5 laps to go, 1 car smoke and park itself outside the track without obstructing anything ==> Yellow flag...

    Thanks to the security paranoia of our decade...

  • @t3d3k he put oil on the track

  • This race was fixing to be epic and it got ruined with a yellow

  • Comment removed

  • when tony stewart wrecked, I laughed so hard

  • This was a start to what we call today: vickerized!!!

  • This is an interesting race finish until that caution.I like it how 29 or 30 cars have like 1 second behind the race leader.

  • what a crappy ending, Jr had it

    

  • This is back when NASCAR had SWAG.

  • Kurt buch helped jimmie on the restart i bet he wouldn't do that now lol

  • the hole time i was waiting for 2 cars to pull out

  • the whole damn time they were ranting about the 8 car, little did they know jeff gordon knows how to win

  • i miss the sound of the old cars with restrictor plates

    

  • At the start of this video, Gordon is in 14th.

  • I loved the old cars pack racing! It gave me such a good passionate feeling while FOX was commentating!! 2007 was the best season of the decade!!!

  • plate racing has become a real disgrace, not even looking foward to those races anymore like I used to

  • i miss the old car

  • gordon should have one the 07 championship

  • @thehypermidgit well he blew it just lke this year.....again

  • @Weezy10580 i know right

  • Dont complain, you know Mike Helton and Brian France will make racing worse if you do

  • last race in the old car at talladega.

  • this is when nascar needed the three atempts at the gwc

  • you guys are fucking blind if you think playing follow the leader all day is better than the new form of restrictor plate racing. 99.9% of nascar fans can never be satisfied with any change even its for the better

  • @k0ehl3r I agree with you on the last part no doubt, and I don't mind the draft because it still develops exciting finishes, but it still needs work, and I don't like the fact that the pusher has to give up the win to let the guy in front of him to the win. I think maybe give them both the win because the offense in football doesn't get the just get the win. The defense does as well. I guess that would be weird if both drivers would win, but it would be more fair.

  • Reason u see more 2 car racing its b/c of the areo package of the cars. they they used old areo package like this it would be like one crazy racing.

  • thumbs up if you think this 2 car never-worth-it crap should end

  • This is classic racing not that 2 car crap thumbs up

  • nascar died with dale

  • And all the retarded earnhardt fans throw beer cans and shit at gordon! I feel bad for Dale that this is his fanbase now...

  • 5:01 , now Mcmurray what to do lol

  • 9 to go gordon was 14th he can drive! JR. doesnt deserve to hold his jockstrap

  • this is what plate racing was built on, not the new style of racing

  • 2 car is racing is less exciting, but safer. The sport isn't about exciting crashes.

  • this race in 2007 looks like nascar in its prime compared to the talladega race this year. they're just really making a downfall for nascar

  • the 2 car draft is AWESOME!!!

  • @TheJessee97 It sucks.

  • hell id rather have this high-line draft than the 2 car bullshit anyday....

  • @X1Metallica You'd rather watch a string of cars doing nothing the entire race? What the fuck is your problem?

  • @X1Metallica I agree. That's when it was so breathtaking.

  • @X1Metallica but the finishes are more exciting

  • @X1Metallica no i dont get whats so exciting about the parade around the high line its BORING AS SHIT

  • like if you miss pack racing. f@ck the 2 car draft

  • @sportsfan0518 I like the 2 car draft because it dosnt take 15 year to get to the front but the side by side racing was much more exciting.

  • @sportsfan0518 they better do something about it or they arent gonna keep their fans at those tracks

  • @sportsfan0518

    yea, watch em go single file all day with no passing. FUCK big pack racing. If YOU thin that's racing you're not a nascar fan. Yea i'm calling you out.

  • @Gforcebond Single File racing, a straight line of cars following each other with zero passing. Pack racing, a pack of 35 cars bumping and passing each other with very little room to drive. I think both styles of racing are fine do not get me wrong, but the 2 car draft is not entertaining and shows how easy NASCAR can be. pack racing shows why the drivers are true athletes.

  • @sportsfan0518 Let's hope they can find the solution for the pack.

  • @sportsfan0518 New style.. I dont like it that much either but you better get used to it.

  • @sportsfan0518 amen to that..

  • @sportsfan0518

    With the new changes for this year on the car, the 2 car draft SHOULD only last a lap before the pushing-car gets serious overheating problems. More pack racing expected this year! :D

  • @ParasiteQueen1 I suspect the pushing car will be out on the right of the car he's pushing in an attempt to keep his car cool.

  • @PGOLDEN88

    I doubt that will help as much as it did like last year. The grill-openings on the car this year on the restrictor-plate tracks will be exactly on the front bumper, So the pushing-car will have to back off completely to cool his car...so I've heard. :)

  • FUCK THE TWO CAR TANGO BULLSHIT! I WAS AT THE 2011 AARON'S 499, AND I WILL TELL JUST HOW BORING IT WAS, I FELL ASLEEP! TOO BAD WE WILL NEVER HAVE EXITING RACING AT TALLADEGA ANYMORE!

  • @flubber342 yea dude i was at the race. i hated it!

  • mannn i miss that pack racing

  • gay.... they never shoulda flagged the guy ..... he coulda just pulled off to infield at any gate on track and prolly woulda had one of the best race finishes ever... but thank you NASCAR assholes for screwing the shit outta something good once again.......

  • @Jammin6796 yea and left all the oil/water he was spilling allllll over the track so everyone would crash the next time around. yep good idea.

  • MAN THAT JEFF GORDON IS GOOD!!!!!!!!!!

  • yeh yeh yeh, so gordon can go from 14th to first in 10 laps, now lets see if he can go from 19th to first in about 5 laps like Dale Sr. did in 2000 at dega.

  • @flubber342 gordon went 14th to 1st in 4 laps. 8 to go he was 14th, caution with 4 to go he was in the lead

  • @flubber342 actually gordon was behind sr when there was 5 laps left in the 2000 winston 500. got hung out but came back to finish 4th

  • Man, you got to have some big balls to go 3 wide in the turn at Taladaga...that's how God makes angels. Don't know how these good old boys do it! In the old days you'd sometimes see 4 wide...crazy!

  • Stange seeing Denny Hamlin in a Chevy lol

  • if you notice at 4:56 the ticker says jeff gordon is in 16th but he actually is in 3rd

  • The caution ruined this race, just like every other superspeedway race if there's one at the end. Because once there's a GWC at a superspeedway, its just a circus and people are wrecking everywhere on the next attempt(s) and it ruins the race. No matter who you root for, you gotta know what I'm talking about. I wish they could red flag the races instead. You mind as well play circus music during the last 5 laps of these races because that's what they'll be.

  • What a lame finish. Good race, but a really lame finish...

  • WTF happened to Stewart

  • @27darthvader: Got clipped, I think, by Gilliland...

  • @27darthvader Gilliland spun him out, they had a lil rivalry going on

  • @27darthvader Jamie McMurray spun Gilliland into Stewart, who bounced off the wall and came up in front of Gilliland. Stewart was going so much slower than him that Gilliland had no time to react and avoid him.

  • @sporgie84: I think McMurray and Gilliland made contact and Gilliland got into Stewart...

  • @sporgie84 gilliland moved up on mcmurray. if you watch the replays of this wreck gilliland pinched jamie. jamie didnt do anything wrong on this one

  • I wish they still had the mix of the old/new car like they did here in 07

  • Sadler surviving the pocono wreck had nothing to do with the height of the car. It was the Hans that saved him.

  • Comment removed

  • "There 3 wide once again, like they were for the first 300 miles. Dick!"

  • Best Season of NASCAR Racing in history. Damn, Jeff Gordon should've won the championship!

  • Stupid caution

  • 07 was the best year of nascar ever, besides Johnson winning the championship

  • I hate to say it, but I've loved nascar always. but 2007 was the final year of GOOD NASCAR racing.

  • @xBenjiBoy28x Actually 2003 was the last great year of racing in my opinion

  • @WWENASCARFAN Agree with you.. 2003 and 2004.. after that its made a steady track down hill.. Ive watched 2 races this year .. and dont care.

  • @xBenjiBoy28x  Fuckin' Car's of tomorrow....

  • @Matthew3777 why? because the cars of tomorrow don't kill the drivers?

  • @xBenjiBoy28x Alright, In the year of 2007, Which was the last run of regular Late model type stock car, Did anyone Die? What excitement is anyone getting from the Car of Tomorrow? The look of them isn't that bad, I will admit that.. But the rest of it being set up, Racing isn't the same.. You can put the same driver, in the the older type stock car, and put him through the same collision and with Todays safety products, The driver would still survive.

  • @Matthew3777 Well, they had to put a higher roof on it. Elliot Sadler would've been killed at Pocono if he had this car. Because he's pretty tall.

  • jimmie johnson doesnt care bout his teamates...as u see, he just said "lets go jeff", and he went, but then he abandoned him and went back 2 the outside. God i hate jimmie!

  • whats so awesome about talladega is the big ones that happen and wow they repainted the track than they did in this evnt like 2 years ago but today 5 years ago the place was all like the old roads that we have today but man i miss the old nascar style

  • Brutal speed!

  • Jeff Gordon is due for a great run at talladega he and Jr remind me of Dale Sr a little bit out there just the way they work the air. I think jr and gordon will both finish top 5 at dega!

  • How about everyone stop complaining.

    Look I've been a Jeff Gordon fan since he first came into the picture

    Jeff would be nothing without his greatest mentor/competitive Earnhardt. He learned so much from him, and their rivalry is considered the best in series history. You should be proud to experience the 90's between the top two best drivers from that time. I would choose those two any day over so called Jimmie Johnson and Kyle Busch today. Fact- Gordon has 6 wins at both Rest. Plates

  • #24 IS THE FUCKINBG BEST

  • When The Cars Were Cars And Racing Was Fun

  • Most memorable moment (to me) is when everyone stayed single filed.

  • man i miss that 8 car at talladega

  • thank god for three attempts at gwc now. man this used to suck and it happened every time!

  • GO JEFF GORDON! #24 4 EVER!

  • Just so you guys know, counting the races that matter, the all time leader in restrictor plate wins is jeff gordon with 12.

  • Also. I love it when the talk to dick, It sounds like there calling someone a dick.

  • Hey, See that? Thats the days the cars we're faster.

  • go jeff and jimmie r.i.p dale this is wat yu made

  • @Japanesef1 Jimmie is a fag

  • Thats another win McMurray should have won and stewarts a fat ass who cant drive

  • Jeff Gordon about lap 180-183 was like Earnhardt in 2000. Gordon IMO is one of the best drivers in NASCAR and Dale Earnhardt did teach him well...

  • when this video started,gordon restarded 14th,that shows it dont matter where you start at dega,and also Jeff gordon is the best restrictorplate racer in nascar

  • @gtcochran1 fuck you Dale Earnhardt Sr. won from below 20th in 1999 and below 15 in 2000 and it was in about 5 laps on a green flag not on a restart with 10 laps to go on a restart

  • @flubber342 earnhardt has 1 daytona win and alot of talladega wins.jeff gordon has more than 1 daytona win and multiple dega wins.do the math gordon is the better restrictorplate driver.Retard

  • Fuck you. Just because he has multiple Daytona 500 wins doesn't mean he's better. I mean c'mon, 10 wins at 'Dega! And not only that, alot of wins at Daytona. Atleast 4.

  • Comment removed

  • @cpcomedy314 Gordon has won 3 at Daytona I know of and 3 at Dega I know of.And Earnhardt raced a LONG TIME! If Gordon lasts that long he can do it.And one thing you tell me who has more wins overall bitch

  • @gtcochran1 Well, I think Dale Earnhardt would have a few more wins if oh, I dunno', HE DIDN'T DIE! I mean c'mon! Gordon has STILL been around ALONG time. 17 years mother fucker!

  • @gtcochran1 Gordon is good however Dale Sr.s had more wins on restrictor plate tracks cause he won 10 at Dega, only 1 Daytona 500 yes but he won the 400 mile race a few times as well as constantly dominating the Gatorade 125 qualifying races winning 10 in a row which is just incredible. I'm not knocking Gordon its just the numbers don't lie.Plus the thing Earnhardt has on Gordon is that Gordon always had better equipment than Earnhardt. Lets face it Hendricks has great gear not just drivers.

  • @gtcochran1 gordon has won 5 Dega wins! He will get close to 10 trust me bitch.Dont get me wrong,I respected Earnhardt,but he had them old timy cars that you could wreck and come back and win.Oh yeah he has more Daytona wins.GO GORDON!

  • the old cars were a hell of a lot better

    new cars=fail

  • This was the last great 'Dega race....damn COT...lol.

  • o yea i saw that race. jeff gordon came from 14th place to win the race. jeff telling crew cheif "can i go now?" "yeah go ahead" said crew cheif. boom 1st place.

  • this was 2007.

  • if jr wouldve gone with gordon he wouldve won

  • @crazyalex881, Jr.'s car obviously wasn't as good on the bottom, also there were chances he could have gotten run over/

  • if you look at tony stewart from 6:08 to 6:10, you can plainly see that david gilliland swiped across the track and hit tony stewart, who later hit the inside wall. what a dick move from a driver who cant even find a full time ride now.

  • Man, single file restarts were trash. Double file restarts. Shit is cash.

  • This was 2006

  • @INTERFAMOUSSECRETS No, it was 07, in 06 gordon was leading with 3 laps to go but got shuffled back

  • no it was 2007...look it up Gordon won Aarons 499 in 07..plus look at kevin harvicks car it has shell on it..in 2006 he had GM Goodwrench

  • no actually it was 2007. jeff gordon drove the pepsi chevy in 06. also notice the blue flames on the front which were not there until 2007.

  • @jgfan24rox that was the chase race with the pepsi

  • wow tony got screwed. He got wrecked under caution AND apparently he got wrecked AFTER the field froze but nascar said oh well you finish 28th.

  • It doesn't matter if he got wrecked, he didn't keep up with the pacing speed. It's black and white, there's no gray area.

  • wow single file with 9 to go.

  • ya jeff gordon won

  • Someone please remind me but didn't Gordon win that one

  • 14th with 10 to go...1st at the end of the day...at Talladega...

    Remind you of someone? ;)

  • # 3

  • no not like the #3 earnhardt came from like 20th to first in 7 laps....soooo

  • i like how in this race they dont bump draft in the corner and they ran single file more then last weeks talladega race and no one complained about a boring race.

  • The single file in this race was only for about 10 laps.

  • Yeah, what bignfl09 said, plus, there was a lot of complaining about the Talladega race, too. Well, maybe not, but that was just because Jr. was the leader 'til the last lap.

  • one of the best races ive seen out of jeff. he is the restrictor plate king.

  • nah i think it was around like 20 or so. at least it felt like 20. maybe 15. more than 10 tho

  • @SuperShyGuy62 nah, Jr is the restrictor plate king. from 2001 - 2004 Jr won 5 talladega's and 3 daytona races

  • if Reutimann didnt blow up Jr couldve won. it would be Jr vs Gordon

  • This would've been a good finish if they didn't wreck going through turn 2

  • 1:40 = 3 very fast and talented drivers.

  • @rig48 How long did it take for you to come up with that one?

  • @crbassassin

    I totally agree with you. I'd give you thumbs up, but too many Jr. fans have given you thumbs down, so I can't do it.

  • gordon is god!!!

    gordon > 3 earnhardts

  • i was listening to the race on MRN and i thought Jr was gonna win this thing, but Gordon comes out of nowhere and pulls it off lol. Gordon can drive man

  • Gordon was 14th on the restart HE IS GOOD

  • Harvick was 7th on the restart with 2 to go and won the 500 in 2007.

  • Yea that was awesome too

  • BP from NBC and TNT is also the best commentator

  • Jamie should of let Dale get behind him. I wish Jamie wins at Dega soon.

  • why does alot of people hate Gordon

    are they forgetting that he learned from THE INTIMATOR DALE EARNHARDT SR.!!

    without Gordorn there would be jimmie carl kyle jamie denny david and more of the young guns

  • It'd be kinda nice without them.. Except for Denny.

  • Gordon made Jimmie Johnson, but he didn't make any other of the young talanted drivers.

  • gilliland is an asshole

  • How many cars are on track?

  • 43 cars are on track

  • 43 cars are on the track

  • go gordon! :)

  • Jeff Gordon the smartest driver in the history of nascar. If it wasn't for jeff there'd be no kyle carl clint and especially jimmie or alot of other young drivers Jeff did alot more for nascar then he will get credit for and i heard nascar is doing all they can to have jeff race beyond 2010 because lets face it the sport is counting on him no one else wants to step up i guess the 4 time champ is the only one that could and he learned every thing from Dale Sr. end of story

  • DW isn't a idiot, hes won 84 races and has 3 championships.

  • no it's 82 races 4 championships

  • <
