Buckshot Jones Explains His Feud with Randy LaJoie 

Dale Jr. is no kidding one of the best hosts I’ve ever watched. Every time I get a little confused he somehow steps in and asks the exact questions needed to clear it up. 2:23 He is truly talented. I hope he and Mike do this show for a long long time!

Ah, ol' Buckshot! Always loved those #00 Pontiacs, especially the Cheez-It & Aquafresh ones! And how badass of a nickname is "Buckshot"?

Love Dale Jr's quest to find the truth, and facts good or bad

I was at the Bristol race when Lajoie dumped Buckshot and Buckshot was on the bottom of the track and when LaJoie came back around Buckshot drove his car strait up the track into the side of LaJoie's car and the crowd went wild when he did it .

Buckshot was my favorite driver. I still have a couple autographed hats of his.

We need characters like Buckshot back in the sport today.

Whenever I see the name Buckshot Jones my brain hears it in Eli Gold's voice.

Soundes like NASCAR recited the script from Days of Thunder to ole Buckshot & Lajoie. Lol

I wish in today's NASCAR there were rivalries and personalities like there were back in the 80's-90's.

That rivalry sold a lot of tickets. NASCAR can claim they're "not having it". But the promoters and track owners were having it.

I always loved that Georgia-Pacific Dodge that he drove, even though he performed terribly in it.

Outstanding interview! The podcast was great!

You need Kevin Lepage. We want to hear his story on that talladega race. The big one he caused

Watching Buckshot Jones race, whether in the Busch Series or Cup Series, was always fun. He raced everyone hard...which is the entire point of racing! I really enjoyed this interview, Thanks Dale Jr

Crazzy to think how dale jr has been apart of my life since I was a child! I watched every lap he turned in his career with passion! Would even watch the practices on speed channel just to see how he was on 10 lap averages lol the day he retired I had to leave work because I was upset........I knew it was coming but it just hit me I wouldn't watch a race again the same way and now I cant wait every week to see what old timer hes gonna have on! I would love to meet him one day just to tell him thanks! If you ever see this dale thanks for what you do man!

Been waiting for Buckshot! Thank you!

Again y'all hit it off the charts I listen to the two hour podcast that was awesome I would love to see the video of the whole two hours that was so good I'll never forget seeing his motor coach I always really wonder what the real reason was that he left NASCAR buckshot was one of my favorite drivers back in the late 90s early 2000 keep up the good work

Awesome show love the story time it brightens up my day for sure👍👍

Just started listening to this podcast ..... good stuff. Love the old stories.

One of my favorite Pontiacs when Buckshot drove in the late 90s. 00 Pontiac.

Always loved Buckshot! Thanks JR.

I see him around town on occasion. I live in a racing town but it’s still fun to see old and current nascar drivers around

I always liked ol' Buckshot.

As long as I’ve followed NASCAR and these 2 guys incidents I don’t think I’ve ever heard Buckshot talk for more than like 10 seconds. Dope to get this full interview about the whole situation.

Loved this dude back in the day. Loved seeing him and Randy f around

Love the interview.

Like they always say “ DONT MESS WITH A COUNTRY BOY” they will take you to a field and woop yo ass. The sport needs more country boys like buckshot.

These podcasts are awesome

Pure Gold !!!

Buckshot rockin that Jefferson hat! Just listened to the whole podcast I live bout 10 mins from him!

They need drivers like this back in Nascar. The nicknames that other drivers give them. We lost the big Personalities. Stories like this.

All I can think of is Cole Trickle asking the crew to change his tires after Russ Wheeler spun him out.

Back during that rival I worked at BACE motorsports (Lajoie and Fedewa) shop. There was a big guy named JB (Jim Byrd) he was the goddamn best fabricator. Anyhow he had a buckshot 00 Hat and he would go outside the garage peaking through the windows with the hat on🤣🤣 We would always think Buckshot sent a Spy.

I raced go-carts with Buckshot in York, PA when his was in town for an appearance!!!!!! WOW! I wish I knew about this ahead of time. I worked with Luxaire back in the early 2000's and got to know him real well along with Rodney Combs, Phil Parsons & ROY Allen (forget his first name). These were all Busch cars then... I watched this wild crap with Lajoie fest a long time then and personally at Rockingham personally....

Buckshot Jones: Man of few words.

I play baseball and my hitting Instructor is friends with Buckshot since high school, they met while playing football at school

Best podcast in the world

I’ll have to go back and watch Randy’s

Best name ever man.

My memory's a little hazy on the exact details, but at a race at Dover (I think), Joe Bessey (I think) won his only BGN race. Towards the end of the race, he had some kind of dust up with Buckshot, and after he won, while Bessey & his crew were celebrating the victory in the Winner's Circle, Buckshot's crew attacked them with water hoses, right on TV, spraying them and giving them a good soaking, LOL. One of the strangest retaliations I've seen in racing. I'm still not sure it really happened, because I was watching it live on TV, and while the commentators mentioned it briefly, it was barely mentioned afterwards in the media. Just imagine something like that happening today, but back then it was a Saturday race on some station like TNN, so it passed unnoticed. Buckshot looks so different now. I'd have never recognized him. I liked him in the Cheez-It car, mainly because I love Cheez-Its. So I rooted for Buckshot. Junior asks why Buckshot had trouble with Lajoie and here I'm remembering trouble with Joe Bessey. Why? Bessey and Lajoie were New England Yankees. Buckshot, good ol' Southern boy. Civil War part 2?

Lajoie was always dirty watched him wreck tons of people in the old busch north series.

Buckshot and Randy use to put on a helluva show at GPS

I always thought he had the coolest name I ever heard.

Thirty years ago,maybe longer. Jr. looked about 12. He and his dad were at a NHRA race. Kenny Bernstien let Dale sr. sit in his dragster. Can't find any video. Does Dale jr. remember?

Dale, I hope you see this. I'm not a NASCAR fan, but I enjoy these shows. I know you'd probably prefer I watch the races. The first racer I remember is Joie Chitwood. My Dad used to mention him. I recall watching Harry Gant and The King. I moved on to Indy with A.J. Foyt, Rick Mears, Emmerson Fittipaldi and Team Penske. Now I like that show about Formula I on Netflix. That documentary about Senna is tragically terrific. Formula I took away his talent and who he was. I think it's their fault he wrecked and passed. Well, keep on keepin' on. I enjoy these. Peace

Lajoie..... and pain (Turn it up, turn it up) Sunshine...and rain.

My phone knew I was watching this and thought I might wanna c it again. Snooping phone

I’m still expecting a 25 yo kid when I hear the name Buckshot Jones.

Drivers never forget lol

Anybody besides me think his characteristics favor Hank Parker Jr?

We need more names like buckshot

We need to juxtapose Randy and Buckshot's interviews with footage of the incidents. Somebody out there needs to put that together lol.

Man 👌🏼‼️‼️ I didn’t give a rats ass what the standings said. I was a huge BUCKSHOT fan .. HUGE ‼️ Damm boy drove a PONTIAC 00 CROWN FIBER then went to my childhood hero THE KINGS ride … I was all in 🤟🏼 I was hoping maybe he would come back and do a race here and there but nope ‼️ I still have me a ton of BUCKSHOT cars on display .. and I can’t even stand to watch anymore … sad the shucks can’t leave well enough alone …sad

Seems like yesterday ole buckshot was in the #00 Aquafresh Grand Prix

A guy has the highlights of that Bristol race posted on here. Worth watching just to see at the end Mikey clowning on Kyle's gas can demo.

NASCAR history

Top 5 best name ever in Nascar!

Should have asked him why he got so pissed when Randy would call him Roy.

never met either man, watched them race on TV in that day, thought they were both good.

No matter what level that you race at there's always that guy who is the one who'll lose control and spin out in front of you or run into the side of the car for no reason.

Is that a Jefferson Dragons hat? If so, he doesn’t live too far from me! 🤷‍♂️🤝

Can we get an interview with Birdshot Smith soon? 😂

Buck Shot was a good driver when equipment was!

I swear I always assumed that Buckshot was his real name. Just as Junior had assumed too this was a great episode.

2:50 Days of Thunder moment

Shout out to Cadena's Auto Repair in Columbus Ga

Red eye Randy 😂😂😂

I always wondered what happen to old buckshot

Jr Shaved

Buckshot had some real good cars

Shades of Days of Thunder.....

Right or wrong, one was a championship driver who worked to get there and the other...I always wondered why Jones never really had more success. Great stories.

Wow!! Buckshot looks great!! No way he's 51! Looks 31 or 33!

Mike...it's called scumbaggin lol

He Sounds like George Jones

I know it ain't nascar. But when are you guys gonna interview Jordan taylor?

I can remember when he was a kid...lol

Corey’s dad on Dale Jr show

🎉

Hey Dale my grandpa poured the concrete at on the garage on your house at Lake Norman back in the 90s for your dad and then he helped build dei my grandpa was Ron Johnson he was kin to Junior Johnson from Statesville and I'm Ricky Banks

He dumped two cars on the way to the shop! I seent it!

Idk why I mix Lagoie and Blaney up

Man I swear... years ago I had a Clash of Clans account and my name was Buckshot Jones lol

I never like Kevin LaJoie. But I bought a Buckshot hat from his Dad @ Bristol in 97

Sounds like those two had the hots for each other

Remember when NASCAR used to put drivers on probation? Not a thing anymore.

sad that nascrap had to take a control standpoint in this situation let it play out would of fixed it self in time just as dale sr would of fixed it.

Sounds like buckshot kept it going

Best name in the history of racing

Always kinda liked this guy. Shame he never had any decent equipment to race in Cup.

❤❤❤❣😂

Wouldn't show my azz at the track,,,,,,maybe when they go fishing or huntint.....for sure.

Toothpaste guy has real nice teeth.

But why did LaJoie dent Buckshot's road car?

Racers, for the most part, are big babies.

Don't think it's in this segment but for the love of God, Buckshot, if you're gonna live in Hoschton, learn how to pronounce it. It rhymes with bush ton.

Buckshot was definitely underrated

Hes quite possibly a little crazy

Appreciate the history aspect, but this was a bunch of battles between a bunch of never was'

Wearing that Jefferson hat. Gary Jones should have went into the cup series but for whatever reason he just didn’t. I’ve watched Gary Jones and Clay Dale beat Buckshot regularly. Clay Dale was amazing in a race car also. Buckshot just didn’t have enough talent
