Roger Wasson: The Return to Chiefs Engine Shop 

This was a great video , keep Roger talking !!

Another great video guys!!! Only problem is, it's not long enough! Yall better keep an eye on ol' Mark there, he's starting to look like Chief with that beard! God bless!!

Any word on how much horsepower those Hemi`s made in 1970?

Sand blasted pistons ! Offset adjust dowels for the bell housing Great stuff guys !!!

GREAT engine tech. I'm with Timmy, i want to hear EVERYTHING PE did with the Big Block "Wedge" engines. I have a nice little collection of vintage 413's, 426 wedge, some 440's & a pile of parts i experiment with. I sure hope there's a "Part 2" with Mr. Watson (the vid ended kinda abruptly).😁

LOVE this channel gentleman, it is NASCAR living history. Keep the stories and these legendary guests coming!

What's amazing is I've really never thought of it before but Pretty Enterprises won 9 Daytona 500s.isnt that more than any other team owner to??

Always enjoy the heck out of y'all's show.Roger Wasson sure looked excited to be with you.Roger is as sharp as a tack,and really liked his stories.Thanks and keep them coming,

Great video!!!! I understand Timmy is an engine guy yet there was a great story about your mom and Roger that was skipped over to talk about engines. anyway, keep up the good work!!!

Love the engine talk! Keep it up. Thanks

The rumor I heard years ago is that when the 67 car that wouldn't perform like the 66 is that y'all sold the 67 GTX with a lot of wedge parts and that when y'all had to go back to the wedge y'all bought a bunch of stuff back from the man y'all sold the 67 car to.

Don't stop now! I was enjoying it so much!

Love the history ❤️

Ah the beautiful #40 Petty Blue😍🏁 Glad Roger is in this to tell some stories about Pete Hamilton’s 40 ride!

Great video as always guys! BTW, 5k in '70 = $39,600 in 2023.

Not long enough guys. This is the type episode we want. Good job

Great interview y'all! Would love to know if y'all were able to pin him down on how much horsepower those things were really making?

Another good one boys, hope there’s a part 2

Great video, do more videos with Roger, we all need to know horsepower numbers on all the different engines he ran, very interesting and great job guys!

Great great video today! The mics are a welcome addition, they really improve the sound quality of the video. I hope there is more videos coming with Roger!

Thanks for sharing. Awesome

Going stop and see you guys next spring. Keep up the good work, I love it.

Great stories looking forward to hearing the other half 😀 👍 😄

😬I spent the whole video worrying that #40 car up front was going to fall off the table. 😬

Massachusetts PETE! ✌🏼❤️🦞👑🏆

Wow! Roger brings so much knowledge and history to these interviews. I appreciate the motor shop talk. The Chief and his crew turned out tremendous engines that provided speed and reliability that most teams couldn’t match at the time. I know that the Petty family appreciated Roger for his dedication to detail in his work. Be encouraged and keep up the good work with your channel.

According to my Google box, $5000 in 1970 comes to $38,768.04 in today's money.

I really enjoy you guys…I’ve been a Petty fan for more than fifty years…first race I attended was world 600 1972

I could listen to a month's worth of Mr Wasson stories and the Petty Brothers everyday

Was hoping you guys mentioned the oranges the hoop the man is wearing ...anyway i remember seeing old Car an Track video on one of many ol VHS tapes i use to record A LOT of racing. Long live Speedvision network .... Yes i remember Richard wearing that ....i figured the entire crew got one ...dident know only Richard got it ...but i knew what it was just was waiting hoping on confirmation...too cool.

Good show… them mic’s sound good, a that pink ones awful cute!

Awesome awesome awesome

Allsome I love it so good to here can't wait for more Thank you guys

Can you do one on the small block Mopar?

Awesome👍👍

Roger is a blessing to listen to. Hope you guys continue letting him tell his stories from the glory years.

Well now I need to know why he quit & where he went

👍 🏁🏁👍 43

This is so great! I hope to be on hallowed Petty grounds within a week! It’s taken me too long to leave frigid New England for Texas and finally get to NASCAR country on my bucket list on the way. ✌🏼❤️🦞👑🏆
