    I love Steve's Byron story at 53:00 ! He is such a jokester. Grew up with Steve and Chad and enjoy seeing them together.

    I remember the fender issue I wish they could and would talk more about that stuff. Because I am positive things like that happen every race weekend. The COT car with the front left fender sticking out 6 inches lol. Digging in the grey area is what probably wins races

    I can't believe it's been that long since Chad and Jimmy bust on the main. I was always more of a Chad fan than a Jimmy fan. This interview proves he is a Hall of fame person

    Me and Chad had a staring contest when I was at Daytona for speed weeks in my Pepsi shirt I should’ve sneakingly stuck my tongue out at him to make him smile

    I’m the reason Jimmie Johnson had all of his success. I was born December 22 of 05, the first year with me in the world, Jimmie Johnson started his legacy!

    Ah yes...Rockford Speedway. I recall a few times when you and Joe Shear Jr had to be seperated when the competition arguments between you two progressed to blows. Yeah, those were the days....

    Chad and Jimmie are separated, Jimmie misses the playoffs for the first time, William Byron round of 12. Proving Chad is the reason for Johnsons success.

      They were trash with Knaus in 2018 so it has more to do with the car than it does anything else.

    No, Nascar gave that championship to y'all. Called a fake caution. Championship was Carl Edwards 100%.

    • @d.rogers5424
      @d.rogers5424 Před 4 lety +5

      Its not cheating its trying 2 get the cars as close 2 the grey line as possible. Its racing, every good team pushes the envolpe. Obviously you never worked on any race team.

    • @darnit218
      @darnit218 Před 3 lety

      Yep Chad is definetly a cheater, Decided to retire once he ran out of his cheating methods
