Tony's house looks like a Bass Pro Shop.
LarryWT mine would too if I had that cash.
@@DB1Journeys Good point...
@Larry it's supposed to be he's sponsored by them
Yeah I would love be in that house
It does!!!
I enjoyed seeing the two on the track battle and now look at the respect they have for each other.
Was thinking the same exact thing
My thoughts to i am a huge Jeff Gordon fan. I am glad that Tony wii be inducted in the Hall of fame.
@@robertrobinson9920 same here big time,gordon fan so happy smoke made it to the hall of fame with bobby labonte n joe gibbs
My father was a lifelong fan of Tony and I now see why. You can't judge a guy by his attitude on the track! If I ever have the privilege to meet this legend and amazing guy I wouldn't ask for a signature from him for me but in memory of my father!
Gonna be honest. I think Tony is EASILY within the top 10 greatest motorsport drivers of all time.
100
These two ran when Nascar was good...fun...miss em!
Ok BOOMER.
Jack Dempsey you say that but I’m feeling the same nostalgia and I’m a millennial, get over yourself.
Whats the difference now? Im asking bc i watched my first race a few weeks ago at Talladega and havent missed a race since.
@@Great-Tiger I'm not even sure where to begin. I'll give you a general run down:
- Every race was exciting
- Talent pool was greater
- Champions usually were determine by 3rd quarter of the season but you stayed tuned weekly anyway because the racing was just that elite
- More interesting personalities
- Better paint schemes
- More winners every weekend, not just the same 3-4 guys
- Every race received mainstream coverage
The only con that I could think of was there was too many cookie cutter tracks being introduced. Everything else was perfect though.
@@BDLforever24 Thanks for taking the time to share. Im am excited for this Sunday. Any winning picks for Daytona?
When I was growing up, Jeff was always my favorite driver, and Tony was my Dad's. It's funny because it created our own rivalry in the household. I have nothing but respect for the both of them now. Thank you Tony and Jeff for creating memories for fans that will last a lifetime in one of America's greatest sports.
I wasnt even a fan of these 2. I've been a Kurt Busch fan forever but for some reason Gordon and Stewart was my favorite ever NASCAR rivalry
All this TALENT IN 1 ROOM
lo lo 1 Murder and Jeff Gordon
@@keitharm9598 hes not a murderer
CLY_LEFT_THE_CHAT Yeah some think that.. Alot if us think he did it showboating in front of his rich friends!!!
@@keitharm9598 can you retype that sentence
That made no sense
CLY_LEFT_THE_CHAT Have Mommy read it for you!!!
I get so intrigued by the this almost happened stories. Makes you think what would happen if Tony went to HMS or if Gibbs would’ve gotten Jr
Tony is my favorite driver of all time and it’s amazing how I remember when he won the championship in 2011 and now he’s in the HOF. Time really does fly doesn’t it.
Especially when you're run over and killed.
I've been a Stewart fan since 2001, the fall Bristol Race when he spun Jeff Gordon in the pits. At that time, I was a huge Bobby Labonte fan, but when I saw that, this "kid" take on a superstar like Gordon, and spin him out, I was hooked, that moment! I followed Stewart the rest of his NASCAR career, through the good and the not-so-good times! It's fantastic that these two "once rivals" can sit down and have this kind of talk.....genuine, respectful, and truly the friends they are! What a great video!
So great that a bunch of those guys are good buddies. NASCAR will never be what is was without that incredible group of guys.
First thing that caught my eye was the Foyt helmet. What a collection.
Mark Plemons - Foyt is Tony’s Hero.
I bought my first 20 hat at Richmond on that first win night. First race I listened to in car audio. Smoke fan for life.
2 legends of Racing
N96ZG nah
@@keitharm9598 Yeah.
I see Tony Stewart has a collection of Michael Schumacher and Lewis Hamilton`s helmet in the background.
Patrick Anderson: Lewis Hamilton drove Tony's NASCAR Sprint cup car at Watkins Glen. Then Tony drove Lewis Hamilton's F1 car! That might b be why he has Lewis Hamilton's helmet...
Two of the greatest who done it!!!!!
J Gerard one of them killed a guy. Just like OJ
@@keitharm9598 It was manslaughter. Tony intended to scare the kid, but his temperamental action went horribly wrong. I don't think he meant to kill Ward.
Lucky for Tony, the kid had weed in him that could have been detected for as much as a month prior. Whew!
AZNative43 yeah but these kids don't get it.. Tony will make the news again..
@@keitharm9598 If he did kill that pot head hot head, I couldnt be happier. Every time I'm sad I watch that video to cheer myself up. kevin ward is the ALL TIME DARWIN AWARD WINNER! Natural selection at its finest!
@@nascage If he did kill that pot head hot head, I couldnt be happier. Every time I'm sad I watch that video to cheer myself up. kevin ward is the ALL TIME DARWIN AWARD WINNER! Natural selection at its finest!
Happy to see Tony happy, Jeff a good interviewer!
Tony Stewart is my favorite driver ever. And of course I was the "anybody but Gordon " girl. Hahaha. What a cool chat between two amazing men!!
He's a murderer and should be locked up
@@garyking6365 If he did kill that pot head hot head, I couldnt be happier. Every time I'm sad I watch that video to cheer myself up. kevin ward is the ALL TIME DARWIN AWARD WINNER! Natural selection at its finest!
Great video thanks for sharing and two of the greatest drivers
WHAT AN ERA , these guys have experienced. I'm not sure it will ever be as good and I'm concerned that it may not last at all. When I see the empty seats that used to be priority to even get it makes me wonder how much longer we'll have NASCAR.
My two favorite men in the world. The happiness I still have when I see them. Living legends. #24 & #14 always.
What about OJ?
What a great helmet case full of some legendary lids 👀
Awesome video. love those two guys and it is so great to get to see Tony racing back in the sprint cars.
Great interview!!
Awesome interview and insight.. miss watching both of you cup racing on sundays..
Thanks for these great storiesJeff. I absolutely love watching these interviews. Makes you all seem very human. Thanks and keep it up.....Look forward to the next interview. P.S. would love to see you speak with the King.....
That entro could have been said for you Jeff...Thx for such a gracious interview. you are Legend as well.
Watched this one after watching the one on Tony's car collection. There probably could be a few more. I would have loved to see how far his deer farm, or hunting club if you prefer, has come. They did a periscope on it a couple years ago.
And thanks Jeff and AXALTA for doing these.
Two of the four Indiana drivers that was in NASCAR at the same time. These two plus John Andretti and Ryan Newman made the dirt tracks in Indiana proud in their day before they became famous in Indy Car and NASCAR, AJ Foyt and Bobby Unser once said "The greatest all around race car driver that ever lived was Tony Stewart", they went on say if it had atleast 2 wheels on it and a motor Tony Stewart could race it with anyone.
2 of the Best racing drivers... Smoke not missing any meals... Jeff started racing at 5 yo in California
Jeff G your the man.
Need to get Eldora on the cup schedual!!! I would also love to see a Sprint car series and dirt late model series finally get some major tv deals!!!
Logistics would be to complicated for Eldora with the cup cars.
@@lskiller1903 I agree... alot would have to happen but, it is possible to change some things to make it happen! and change is what nascar needs!!
@@MikeE-hb8zb if nascar doesn't start doing something to embrace it's roots no matter if it's out of its confort zone, nascar will be no more. People are sick of hearing about to much money lost racing at small tracks not enough seating, looking around they can't fill a 1/4 of the seats in the cookie cutter tracks, wake up nascar
@@tobyanderson3640 YEP,YEP... I`m in total agreement with you!! I would like to see a lot more 1/2 and 3/4 mile tracks and no more than 1 race at a track( with the exception being Daytona,Talladega and Chase tracks) add a couple dirt tracks (Vegas and Eldora)... I dont claim to be the smartest man in the world but, I think something along those lines would bring back some fans and make dedicated fans even more excited about the sport!!
I watched them all through the years!! I have been watching nascar since the first time it was on wide world of sports!! I feel old now..lol
Makes you wonder with a stable of Terry Labonte, Jeff Gordon and Tony Stewart.. how much more dominant would Rick Hendrick would have been?
@nynetynyne not btwn 1995-2000.
Who knows but imagine Tony with Gordon and Johnson. Be the best team ever
Great video!
2 of my Childhood Heroes in 1 room
Nice interview!!!👍
Two legend’s
My two favorites growing up!
I love these guys.... Tears
Kimi, Lewis, Michael and Rubens' helmets in the background??
Smoke swaps helmets he uses with other drivers, it's a big hobby of his.
They are both greats fluffing eachother which was fun to watch, ! Nuff said.......
It's 2024 now and Tony straps into his wife's Top Fuel Dragster at the season opening Gainsville "Gator Nationals". Unbelievable!!
Bald eagles got started really good in my area a few years back.. up until then they were not around... i live in the very western tip of VA
Imagine tony, Jeff, jimmy, and dale jr all in Hendricks that would’ve been insane
we are all fans tony much respect
I almost laughed. He’s got 50 wins in cup, 3 championships, huge monster house, etc....... then I see a Chrysler minivan parked in the front of all the vehicles, a minivan hahahahaha
and the dodge 2500!!
That could be Jeff's minivan. 😁
The camera crew rental.
@@kccryptkeeper4874 true, just throwing the conspiracy theories out there too.
Probably for storage or like someone said the camera guys van to put his equipment in
Its about time ,TONY STEWART YOU ARE THE MAN
Tony is a great guy and class act
My last hero after dale Earnhardt. Retired. Geesh. At least he is going to a
Hall of fame. Congratulations tony!
i miss both of them
Axalta
Great stuff. Smoke is my hero, and I have such tremendous respect for Jeff (and love the guy as a broadcaster/interviewer).
Tony's apparent arrogance turned me off at first but, as a racer's racer, he more than won my respect. At least he no longer has to pretend to stay in shape. Good on ya Smoke.
Yes! Chubby AND got away with negligent homicide, so he's got that going for him.
@@sickofidiots4095 If he did kill that pot head hot head, I couldnt be happier. Every time I'm sad I watch that video to cheer myself up. kevin ward is the ALL TIME DARWIN AWARD WINNER! Natural selection at its finest!
This guy had AJ Foyt, Rick Hendrick, Joe Gibbs and Barry Green all wanting him to drive for them in the span of a few years. Wow...
Michael schumacher helmet in the back
Paulo Lúcio Machado de Brito 2 Shumacher helmets maybe? Hand full of F1 helmets front and center tho.
@@DimMakTen31 I see just one, that besides it is from Rubens Barrichello
Tony stewart is such a awesome guy that has more then gave back to people and the sport of racing
adam45899 except Kevin Ward Jr.. Tony Really Really wanted that Trophy!!!
Yep hes even got the helmet to go with the trophy!
"Young guys struggle in winged sprint cars" except yung money
Wish these guys would atleast run a race per season. Just show up one week with a car for Daytona or their favorite track. Dale Jr is doing 1 a year and it's a big deal everytime.
Coil over or spring..?
We love tony!
I JUST WISH I COULD MEET THESE GREAT RACERS AND SELL SOME OF MY COLLECTION OF CHEVOLETS TO THEM SO I KNOW THEY WOULD BE TAKEN CARE OD SINCE I HAVE RETIRED AND BECAUSE OF MEDICAL PROBLEMS I HAVE GOT TO STOP. STEVE LYDA GREENEVILLE TN. 37641
I just would like to go fishing on his lake.
I like tony and gordon but I like Scott Bloomquist way more
Hell older guys still racing... you still have red farmer raceing at talledega short track hes what like 91
Say what you will about tony but, he's as real as it comes when he speaks his mind lol.
FIGURE 8S GO FIGURE WHAT REAL RACERS
These guys had to work to get there opportunities which shaped there personalities and made racing what it was........know it's just rich kids with the most sponsorship not the most TALENT!!
👍
Tony Stewart, a real American role model. Commits vehicular manslaughter with his Sprint car... five years later gets into the Hall of Fame.
He ran over and killed a kid.
Is it just me or could Tony's house have been a Bass Pro building lol
It should look exactly like a prison cell.
@@sickofidiots4095 🤦
Only thing my boy didn’t win was 500!!!
I was and still am a big Tony Stewart fan The day he quit driving nascar I quit watching nascar enjoy retirement Tony I still wear The Home Depot jacket everyday
Such a great driver , and only KILLED one kid. I remember him almost running over his own pitcrew and saying," Ill run over their ass." I saw him wreck others and scream INNOCENT. I told my wife that he would KILL someone someday with his antics....I WISH Id BEEN WRONG...Always complaining and insulting NASCAR interviewerws. So much class. HOF!!!
Love both these guys but couldn't help but think "difficult decisions like running over a fellow competitor?"
My gosh, the size of his house toward the end of the video. Actually, I just want to fish in that private pond with Tony. I'll make dinner, elk backstrap
Dan, you should contact Tony directly so he won't have to run you down.
To much work to run him down, here in Nevada we just wait for the IDIOTS to jump in front of us its alot easier, plus its worth more points that way !
@@alanbaeth5542 Every time I'm sad I watch that video to cheer myself up. kevin ward is the ALL TIME DARWIN AWARD WINNER! Natural selection at its finest!
Un "FUCKING" believable. How in the HELL does someone, who MURDERED a race car colleague just 5 years ago, get into the NASCAR Hall of Fame?
Every time I'm sad I watch that video to cheer myself up. kevin ward is the ALL TIME DARWIN AWARD WINNER! Natural selection at its finest!
Tony buy Lincoln speedway
the only problem I have with Tony and TSR is that pesky blue oval.
Oh oh tony tony over here over here.....hi .....I was wondering if you could comment on the time you MURDERED that kid with your spring car?
Agree it's really pathetic how money can save your freedom in this society. He tryed to slide job during a cation to throw dirt and taunt him and ended up ending Kevin. Tony should of been bankrupt if he isent going to serve time. In my opinion before I get raked over this
Every time I'm sad I watch that video to cheer myself up. kevin ward is the ALL TIME DARWIN AWARD WINNER! Natural selection at its finest!
Tony Stewart is a True GENTLEMAN
Donald Burton all people into children sacrifice..for a Trophy... Get Zero Respect...Huh! Sounds like Egyptian sacrifice for the sun God...
@@keitharm9598 You make as much sense as a football bat.
2014cwajts71 you sound like a transgender man purse.... Love to watch children model and (dress up) 👗 for story Time... Pedos for Tony!!!
@@keitharm9598 Ha ha ha. Shows how much you know...or more accurately don't know. No surprise though. I mean anyone stupid and ignorant enough to think the accident was even partly Tony's fault is too dumb to know the difference between a checkered flag and a holding penalty.
2014cwajts71 oh cause you said it. Well then Children sacrifice is ok as long as your Rich.. even if it's televised for millions to see... Wait,.... What?
I thought Jr would of host of his own show...SMH
Tony in a nutshell-Psychopathy is a neuropsychiatric disorder marked by deficient emotional responses, lack of empathy, and poor behavioral controls, commonly resulting in persistent antisocial deviance and criminal behavior.
I see nothing being said about Tony saying he was loyal & that’s why he turned AJ down!!! Funny Tony says that after GM/Chevy was LOYAL to him!! They stuck by his side when he was acting like a jackass in the early 2000’s!! They stuck by him when Gibbs jumped ship & Chevy got him out of the deal with Gibbs & put him in the deal he’s in now!! They were loyal to Smoke but Smoke was the one who doesn’t know the meaning of loyal!!!
Remember when Tony killed that one guy?
No, But I remember seeing with my own eyes a night a kid get out of His car and got Hit by Tony. Tony killed no one!
@@jtkckracing3016 lol OK boomer. Why did home depot refuse to sponsor him and why did he retire? Oh yeah, he killed a guy. This is why you shouldn't hero worship anyone, you end up having to try to defend a known murderer.
Yeah Tony could see just fine... Sped up, hit and killed Ward Jr. for a Trophy... Had millionaire Lawyers & found and easy out... Totally Fucked.. Tony should be hung on TV.. It might bring the fans back!!!
I remember a investigation and a judicial hearing. Not guilty. But some still have a hard time finding peace.
Michael Baumgardner has to do with millionaires getting away with terrible crimes cause they bribe or have way better Lawyers like OJ.. look at Kardashians... Their dad got OJ off two murders.. Tony only killed one I know of...Ward Jr.
Hard to not to think of Kevin Ward Jr as a part of Stewart's evil legacy....
Every time I'm sad I watch that video to cheer myself up. kevin ward is the ALL TIME DARWIN AWARD WINNER! Natural selection at its finest!
Not one word from this ego maniac about Kevin Ward, the kid Stewart killed (on video) at a track where Ward made the mistake of challenging Stewart's titanic ego on Wards hometown track. The tragic event was totally avoidable at the hands of a decision Stewart made from emotions and temperament we are all aware of. Yet noting will ever change Stewart's legacy no matter where he lives or what he does.
Tony is the biggest hot head pos that has ever raced!! What other racer has deliberately killed a competitor on the race track??!!!
Wasn't Tony'fault at all, video proves it.
Like when he swerved toward him and hit the gas lol
how about his decision to intentional run over another driver
Every time I'm sad I watch that video to cheer myself up. kevin ward is the ALL TIME DARWIN AWARD WINNER! Natural selection at its finest!
I used to love Tony till he ran over ward..did you get a trophy
Chris & Suzette Sharpe well he was cleared of charges.
Kid learned don’t get out of a race car on a live track and charge a moving car.
Give it a rest already jackass. Over half a decade ago and it wasn't even Tony's fault.
Hey man, let it go already. He lives with that accident everyday.
@@marcuscompton3772 Exactly, and the sad thing is it wasn't Tony's fault at all.
I always hated jeff gordon as a driver because he whined all the time !!!
Stop whinnnnnng. All drivers will whine at some time or anothet
You mean he WON all the time
I Really Wonder Why He Isn’t In Handcuff’s & In The State Prison, I Watched Him Turn His Steering Wheel Toward That Young Man, That Never Will Have A Chance To Even Try To Be A NASCAR Champion ! And For You Tony!! For That Reason You Are The Bruise On NASCAR! I Don’t Know How You Can Walk Around With Your Head Held High , After What You Did!!
GTFO
Why? Because it wasn't Tony's fault whatsoever, that's why.
Almost No Views.. Shows America does care to hear about Tony.... After that "Killer Trophy"
Career defining: Well being a Murderer might be one
Might be, but it's not.
How can tony walk around with a smile? He murdered a man by running him over.....smh
No he didn't.
Tony the murderer

Tony's house looks like a Bass Pro Shop.
