    Every single female driver in NASCAR needs to be held to the same standard that every other driver is held do. Not on a curve. Take Hailee Deegan for instance - wins a K&N Pro series race, didn't even bring up the fact she's the first woman to win a major NASCAR event. Even her dad barely mentioned it as a side-note "Yeah a little bit of history here" is pretty much all he said.
    They need to work their way up and prove themselves like everyone else - and I believe there ARE good female drivers out there that are fully capable of doing so (like Deegan). But being a female won't save you if you choke or are out of your league.
    Fantastic video, man! Love your channel and concept :)

    • @walterlegere1403
      @walterlegere1403 Před 5 lety +15

      First of all, most females who enter into motor sports do so because there is some form of family connection to racing. Not all but many of them. Do you really think the Force girls would have had the success they have if their father wasn't involved in drag racing at the level he was... the answer is probably not, or at the very least it would have been way more difficult for them. NASCAR has never, since its inception, been a sport that was supposed to be 'all inclusive' because it was created by, for the most part, southern white guys looking to compete against one another for the thrill of it and bragging rights. Historically, most of the women who have been in American racing HAVE BEEN held to pretty much the same "standards" as men because of the rules and regulations by which their respective racing series holds all competitors. And just for the record, Hailee Deegan was not the first woman to win a major NASCAR sanctioned event. That was Shawna Robinson. She had 32 starts in the Goodies Dash Series from 1988 through 1990. She had 3 wins, 18 top 5's and 22 top ten finishes and ended two seasons 3rd in points. To date she remains the most successful female driver to have ever strapped on a helmet in just about any American racing series outside of the previously mentioned Force girls. Women drivers don't really fair well in motor sports because it's not really a sport that was ever intended to include them, just like football and baseball and boxing and most other "typically" male sports. Would it make any particular male dominated sport better to include women just because a part of society thinks they should? You can be the judge of that... I already have my own opinion.

    @yeleyfan18 Před 5 lety +160

    This is why Evernham fell. Not Crocker's fault. No, it was Ray Evernham's. It screwed over quite a few drivers. Mainly Jeremy Mayfield. Evernham stopped giving a crap and it caused trouble for Sadler, Allmendinger, Carpartier, Riggs, and even Reed Sorenson, as he signed with Evernham in 2008 and he went and gave the middle finger selling the team to Petty, where it didn't help at all. Evernham's lack of caring and the fact he couldn't separate personal life and professional life is the reason why his team fell, and put the nail in the coffin of Mayfield's career. Sorenson's nail in the coffin came after the controversial 2011 release, and it still makes no sense how he never recovered.
    The fact of the matter is, I hate Ray Evernham. And this is why. He is selfish. No if, ands, or buts. As Robby Gordon would say: Everyone thinks he's such a nice guy, but really, he's a piece of shit.

      His marriage was already over.
      That’s how it happened in the 1st place.
      It wasn’t like Ray was right in the middle of this great marriage , then booped her pooper , then married her.
      He wasn’t even talking to his current wife , they were only still together because of daughter but finally Mayfield was super hi so he couldn’t shut up and thus he snitched & he didn’t even mean to , he just had one too many puffs on the pipa and now they’re married.

    put Mike Woodring deep in the pack. His drives to the front were always exciting and he was one of the cleanest drivers I've ever seen. Everybody liked him - and I was
    so surprised that Erin ended up in the World of Outlaws and not Mike! I got my physics degree from Union College, Schenectady, NY - huge competitor with Erin's RPI in Troy, NY.

  • @nostalgiarushcollectibleto8954

    In NASCAR 07, while dominating Whelen Modified in my rookie season I was offered the Crocker truck quite a few races into the season. She was 15th-20th in points at the time and I ended up 5th in points despite missing the first 6-8 races (don't remember exactly how many) and my Tim Richmond/Ernie Irvan driving style caused a couple finishes in the 30s. After that, I took the #2 Busch series ride with Richard Childress racing, now I"m on season 3 running for both the Busch and Cup titles with the late John Andretti's #10 car with Kenny Wallace as my teammate. Kenny is 2nd and I'm 3rd in points, because I didn't decide to do the Busch series until after Daytona and Fontana were over. We're way far behind Tony Stewart, and I'm in the #191 Dodge, which I call an Evernham satellite team because it is painted just like Kasey Kahne's car except the number font is different. In Cup I'm 2nd in points behind Jeff Gordon but the Chase hasn't happened yet, and I've been kicking ass on the cookie cutters and flat tracks like Phoenix, Martinsville, and New Hampshire all year. The only one I'm concerned about is Talladega because I've ran like Buckshot Jones at the first 3 restrictor plate races.
    Erin is back to being 8th-12th in trucks and 20th-25th in Busch while running full schedules.

      Crocker might have done better driving for an established team in the truck series. Evernham's team was focused on cup racing, so didn't have much experience with trucks. Regardless of the personal stuff, a rookie drive on a start up team usually has erratic results.

    I honestly think a real issue with women drivers in Nascar is whenever there is one that gets one spark of success they get rushes up to Nascar as fast as possible instead letting the develop in their respective series. I genuinely believe someone like Danica Patrick could have actually won a few races in indycar if she didn't switch over to Nascar. Same with Erin with sprint cars. They're all really different forms of racing and not that they couldn't possibly move over, it just seems like a risk that keeps not planning out.

They showed a Cup race and Crocker was in the crew chief pit box and when their driver won (I believe it was Kasey Kahne), they all high-fived each other. When Crocker held up her hand to get a high five in return, the crewmember looked the other way without doing so and she gave such a dejected look. I was hoping to see it on this clip because I never could find it on CZcams myself. Oh well, still I good video.
