2005 UAW-Ford 500 from Talladega Superspeedway | Classic NASCAR Full Race Replay 

Literally just woke up 😂

Oh ya. Woke me up at like 416 am but it’s a great sound to be waken from

Yes

Yup

yes

That’s just fox. I know everybody loves to hate on NBC simply because Rick Allen and referring to it as “Nothing But Commercials” but their car audio is noticeably louder than fox’s and a big reason why I prefer their coverage

That’s how Fox mixes their audio. NBC is way louder with the cars and (as per usual) people complain about not being able to hear announcers over the cars

I don't want the commentary to be drowned out completely though

That X-pipe music 👑💀

Yeah, this was real, no stages, no waiting for the white flag and tearing up half the field, fuel saving and 2 wide but no passing? That's NOT racing!

Yeah, Scott took a wild ride and destroyed the car pretty good.

You should make a video about it

@@Sharpiecar 'The Most Underrated Talladega race' I can see it

Shouldn’t have ended under caution

It wasn't even a three wide photo finish with a flip, thumbs down.

The racing was so different back then.

You got that right. Race coverage is damn pitiful now days

Think?? Well we've been going n backwards for more than 15 years

Not only that but now in 2024 fox has the mics around the track turned down so low you can’t hear the engines and only “crank it up” on pit stops

It's because back then they had trained professionals who know what grabs the attention of the viewers

​@timcervantes2957 right!! Like why crank it up for pit stops😂😂 I still watch races but the production is terrible now.

really?! thats awesome!!

That's cool to learn

Shake and bake Ricky Bobby! If you ain't First your last!

​

Yeah, mid 90s to around 08 was the peak in my view. Went way down hill from 2010 to 2019.

Love the #42 scheme

2000s NASCAR schemes were the best

05-07 had so many nice cars

Yeah and the drivers too almost all of them don't race anymore

It was good...5hen it wadn't..then it was...but it wadn't...and then I saw the aarons dream machine and I thought that was good...but it wadn't..but I HAD FUNN!!

@@ddaou024 but it wadn't..but I HAD FUNN!!.. but then you didn't!!

Yep, production value is terrible now!!

The presentation was better...but so was the racing!

I'm so sorry for your loss. I was a big Jarrett/Rudd, Yates fan. I watched the 1980 Rose Bowl with my Gramps and he died after the game. RIP Grandpa, RIP Robert Yates, RIP Gramps. RYR forever!

Yates power was king of Talladega in the 90s-early 00s. Since 1989 👑

thank you for the spoiler

@@pat7293 most of us knew how this race turned out since 2005, Hoss...😂

@@pat7293 Dont read the comments before you watch lol

Gen4

You sure? If there wasn't a caution would Dale have still been ahead by the time they even got back to the tri-oval?

Ford switched to the fusion in 06, and dodge used the intrepid in 04, so this was the only year with the charger and the taurus

its up gotta search

😮

Parsons Bestwick and Dallenbach were the real deal Weber was ok but Bestwick was better

Jamie McMurray Also could win but he Started tô fall down

No.

@@kurosakikun1 Beg your pardon?

You mean the fastest 500 mile race? It’s clearly not the shortest race in NASCAR history, but for a 500 mile race, yes.

@@anthonydeloreto3881 It is described as the fastest NASCAR race of all time on Wikipedia. Given that virtually only Daytona and Talladega - when run without any cautions - since the 80s are possible candidates for the fastest race of all time (and all of them, baring qualifying and exhibition races are either 400 or 500 mile races), I am pretty certain it is the fastest NASCAR race in history. Feel free to correct me, fellow NASCAR fan :)

@@X8X8X8X8X8X8X8X8X8X The 2017 Watkins Glen Cup race was 2 hours & 7 minutes, the shortest race ever in the modern era, and a race that was so short since 1971 when Tiny Lund won at Hickory Speedway in 1 hour & 22 minutes.

Lmao, so wait... why does Toyota being in the sport nowadays make NASCAR not as good as "those days"? Weirdo...

Toyota was in NASCAR during this time, just in the trucks series.

Weirdo? How does preference in manufacturers warrant calling someone weirdo lol

@@randomepic6204 Insinuating that a manufacturer (who was in the sport at the time of the running of this race) doesn’t belong is pretty weird to be fair

@@TheTotallyRealXiJinping what? Who said Toyota was weird? He gave his preference in not liking Toyota......so Yea how's that warrant being called weirdo?

Go to Talladega or Daytona you'll hear it

@@billnason7098 Lol no it isn't. It's been gone since 2008.

@@billnason7098 lmao you clearly havent been watching since 08... they no longer do the x pipe crossover exhaust. and now the 2022 cars run just true duals with no crossover at all....and just sound like dump trucks.

It wss good but my all-time favorite Talladega race was the spring 01 caution free race where the field was like 3 4 wide the whole time

they made a deal with Hermie Sadler so Hermie didn't start, and the Tide car could.

I’ll agree. While I do love a lot of racing nowadays, the playoff format is stupid and not really thought through. In the old point system, the reason a driver would win a championship would be based on wins, top 5’s, and top 10’s. Who got less DNF’s or not. And it was a yearly points system, where anyone could win. And the thing that gets me, is the fact that if you had a DNF at the Daytona 500 and finished dead last, let’s say, on the first lap, a single driver had to win a ton of races and finish in the top 5 a bunch of times to even consider getting that 1st spot, that’s how crucial a championship meant back then. Hell Matt Kenseth won a championship in 2003 and he only won 1 race. The Case format was pretty much the same, except it counted wins more than top 10’s and top 5’s, but despite the flaws in the Chase format, we can all agree, in the old points system and the Chase system, the driver who was 1st in points doesn’t have to defend his first position in a championship race, it’s bullshit how the points leader has to race in a race where he could potentially lose the championship in a race where his championship should have been clinched a week ago or 2 weeks ago. In 2022, had it been ran in the old points system of old, Chase Elliot would’ve won the Championship, and it wouldn’t have been close.

Wait is Ricky Bobby in it?

That Yates power 👑 I like to believe Dale was doing it for Davey right there 😂💪🏻

@@youdropwemop8854 It certainly seemed like. Never seen power like that before or since

Actually 6. Kurt Busch, Kyle Busch, Kevin Harvick, Ryan Newman, Martin Truex Jr., and J.J. Yeley. But I think Kurt’s retiring at the end of the 2021 season.

@@BigBennyBoy Kurt's at 23XI while Newman's going to SRX

Uh, that was implemented in 2004. This is 2005.

I disagree. I really liked the original chase format like this because consistency and running well over a stretch of races still mattered. It was ruined when the 2014 playoff format started

But this was before you fight with Chris Bonchano on his birthday and before you throw an airline tantrum on Diwali Day
