    Best reaction time of the event in a Top Fuel Car. Pretty impressive driving. A .021 is exceptional. Way to go Tony.

    Tremendous respect for Tony honoring Andretti, a true Motorsports legend. The intimate moment of prayer before the run is special to me and other spectators alike.

    Your closing is why you are the caliber and type of person that you are. Humble only begins to tell the tale. You know that you're just as human as the next person.
    Your natural and learned capabilities propel you into an atmosphere that very few people can achieve in a lifetime. The beauty of your life is that you don't let your abilities inflate your ego, in that is the grounding for your confidence, plus you in no way feel as though you need to prove yourself to anyone to have strong inner security.
    Thank you for living your humanity.

    When SMOKE was a rookie in Nascar in 1999, I was the 18th person to join his fan club. I have been rooting for him ever since. So glad he found Leah. He deserves all the happiness there is! ❤❤

    Tony Stewart. The modern-day A.J. Foyt. The N.H.R.A. is fortunate to have him. Tony's presence and participation in this series help give the N.H.R.A much-needed cred in the motorsports world. Good luck to Tony, Leah and their associates for all they do.

    I got to talk to Tony after a USAC Midget race in California back in the 90s. I had done some dirt track racing years earlier, and learned we had the same perspective on how much fun hard fought races were, even for a 3rd place finish. I've been a fan ever since.

  • @missinglinkster
    @missinglinkster Před 2 měsíci +9

    I was not a huge fan of him in his early Nascar days but grown to love him over the years. Drug me full steam into appreciating drag racing even more!

  • @americanmadexb
    @americanmadexb Před 2 měsíci +2

    Tony, being an Indiana boy myself I've been a fan a LONG time. I didn't watch Nascar much after Dale passed and definitely stopped watching after you retired and got more into NHRA. Definitely glad you're enjoying it and we are enjoying watching you!
    FINE, AND YOU? 🤣

  • @crazydaze248
    @crazydaze248 Před 2 měsíci +3

    @cooltrkin Před 2 měsíci

    Thank you, Tony, for giving love to John.
    John is the only one to win in each major sanctioning body. When you win in top fuel, you will surpass John as the no. One driver of all time.

  • @sinnedsinister

    Good to see you at top fuel you did well, it’s a learning curve but when you have Clay Millican come knock on your window before your run and let you know you’re gonna be fine. You could do a whole heck of a lot worse than that.

    Smoke, what a great tribute to John Andretti. I'm sure he's smiling down on you. Maybe you should reach out to Taco Bell and see if they'll allow you to do a throwback car at Indy like Capps did with Snake...
    Look forward to cheering you on in person at the Virginia Nats.

  • @mrmiscast
    @mrmiscast Před 2 měsíci

    You'll never get a answer from Tony on which auto racing format is best, or which group of fans is the best. How can he give a direct answer? Meanwhile, the NHRA is so very different from other forms of motorsports that it's got to be such a warm reception and enjoyable weekend for Tony. Going to drag racing, especially at this level has got to be tough as there just isn't much that compares to other forms. My hope for Tony is his usual sucess at some point and just enjoy the fans. Best of luck to him and Leah by the way..
