Talking With NASCAR Historian Mitchell Stapleton! 

Stapleton42 has one of the most underrated channels out there. Guy has a dictionary of motorsports history.

The two Earnhardt aunts were a good interview

Hell yeah, Stapleton42! Loved his documentation of Bud Moore's shop in Spartanburg SC. And it shows how important what they do is.. that shop burned down a couple weeks ago! Gone forever 💔

Mitchell is walking talking NASCAR encyclopedia.

Mitch has one of the best channels out there for great historical NASCAR content! Awesome to see the support he’s getting from the greats and he really is doing something that’s way bigger than himself. Congrats Mitchell for being recognized by Kenny for your work!! We love it!

Stumbled upon Mitchell a few months back. He's the real deal. He's making history...while documenting history. I've learned a lot from him. He's a class act.

Awesome! Mitchell and Logan are doing great work. If you love NASCAR and its history, go check out their stuff, it's great. Thanks for having him on, Kenny!

The Mark Martin videos he did were profound. They were so real, genuine, emotional. Must watch for anyone who has not seen them.

I’ve been watching Mitchell for years. He has developed in to a very talented listener and interviewer.

Seems like a good dude. He has a fun channel and I’m amazed with his ability to land racing royalty as his guests.

Kenny and Mark thank you for giving Stapleton his break. Mitchell people that really find their calling often find it by a combination of accident and seeing a moment. Good on you for taking that moment.

The Wood Brothers video is Gold.

Two great RU-vidrs in one place,Awesome

My favorite Mitchell video was the Morgan Mclure shop and the Kodak car. Excellent video Kenny.

Love watching the history Mitchell finds in NASCAR and learning more about the people behind the sport.

Awesome vision and execution Mitchell. Keep. It. Up. Wow, Mitchell’s closing remarks about being true to yourself is GOLD.

I think an episode with dale jr would be awesome like he did with Kerry ….love what stapleton42 has done for the nascar history it’s amazing 🤙🏻

Been watching Mitchell (Stapleton42) since before he went to Texas in his RV. I'm so happy Stapleton42 has done so well, both care about integrity and honesty and work their asses off bringing us great content.. Love them both because of the great people they really are. Mitchell also has the best Mother in the world. God Bless

Another great interview, thank-you Kenny, take care and stay well :)

Mitchell is doing awesome things. Been there from the start and don’t always see everything but love the content

Man yes Mitchell has a great channel. Love seeing the good olds of NASCAR.

I met Mitchell at Rockingham Speedway a few years ago. He was filming classic stock cars making laps. Im glad he made it to 300,000 subscribers. Been a fan of his for a while. I learned so much more about him today. Thanks to you and him for keeping me entertained during the week! Congratulations 🎊

They have saved a lot of history plus race boats Indy and even museums just glad they have taken the time and effort to show what one day will be gone plus brand new parts being made by industry giants in the parts world

Actually this is one of your best guests as Mitchell is about as real and determined as it gets. Well done Kenny, well done Mitchell!

Mitchell @Stapleton42 has the best NASCAR history content out there bar none!

Mitch is the best love watching him here in Australia 🇦🇺 he’s doing an amazing job !!!

Thank you Kenny for shining a light on Mitchell and Logan's work. Their honesty,passion and love for what they do is inspiring in these modern times. Have followed them from day one from the other side of the world,their reach is vast.

Thank you Kenny and Mitchell 2 great youtubers , stapelton has inspired me to travel to the nascar race last year and do the museum tour at talladega , have been watching you for over 2 years. Some amazing content created . Regards Gareth 🏁🇮🇪🇺🇲

Mitchels stuff is always great !!!! His girlfriend is a doll !! Keep up the great work guys !!

I love the Old School NASCAR, and Stapleton 42 Delivery soy Great Content, it's an Education of the History of The People the Cars and NASCAR earlier Days, Great Work " Mitchell & Logan

My favorite one of Mitch's was the DiGard shop tour (the Wallace and Blue Max ones were great - but I'm already well versed in that stuff) ....and in his own words of documenting those who may not always be here - I sure wish he could get an in depth with Bobby Allison, (my favorite), maybe even a segment of Bobby and Donnie together.

Kenny you are a dam good interviewer. Now you have me hooked on yet another RU-vid channel. I hardly watch TV anymore.

I started following Mitch during COVID. He is a hard working young man.

Always enjoy Stapleton videos. I learn new things about old NASCAR and the videos bring back awesome memories.

Think it’s speaks volumes of Mitchell and Logan’s videos, for the increasing number of times I’m seeing their video’s be used and referenced by other hi profile / celebrity individuals, not only in NASCAR, but, across the entirety of the motorsports arena.

thanks kenny for having mitchell on your cast. he does a great job with his channel and i watch and comment on them all, i watch all yours too kenny! thanks for the video. i started watching stapleton42 when he did the darrell waltrip hauler show and pulled all the stuff out of his hauler which use to belong to bud moore. great video and ive watched all since then. thanks buddy.

Love the Stapleton podcast, great guest Herman

Mitchell's channel is the best Nascar history channel on YT. :)

Mitchell’s channel is awesome!!!

Mitchell and his channel are just great. I really appreciate his humbleness and he never has to continually pat himself on the back and remind everyone how smart he is.

The Stapletons are straight up great people and content creators. I made a mistake about my opinion about one of their channel sponsors and I was left a very professional reply by Mr Stapleton and it taught me a lesson. The lesson was its not always good to make a comment especially if it is negative. I love his digging into the roots of nascar and bringing it to the masses.

This was a great interview with Mithcell, I have followed him for a few years, and I love his videos, he is authentic and loves what the people are having to say. I know he has a bit of a monotone voice, you have to be paying attention to him to get all the details, but he has so much good content. Good job as always Kenny, keep up the good work

Thanks Kenny and Mitch for fulfilling 2 birds with one stone RU-vid videos. I love both Stapleton42 and Kenny Wallace channels the Nascar history brings me back to when I was a Kid in the 80s-90s watching Nascar!!! Thanks!! Both of you keep up the good work and we WANT TO SEE MORE!!!!!!!!!

Love watching Stapleton 42. Great content. Even his old stuff. Thanks Kenny for having him.

Thank You Kenny and Mitchell Forward March !

Thank you Kenny. Mitchell has so many cool interviews. Besides the many people he interviews. He always does his home work. And his knowledge is amazing.

Been watching his channel since the PFI video. I never expected him to become such a good archivist, but he has. I can tell he really enjoys it and is stressing to get as many done as he can, before some of these people aren't with us anymore.

I love watching Mitchell and Kenny. I loved the Mark Martin episode, as well as the Lake Speed series. Hell, I enjoy every video Mitchell post.

Thank you Kenny and Mitchell / Logan for doing what you do ! I think the first Stapleton 42 I watched was when you went to buy Dale Earnhardt's motor couch and have watch every one since that one . They are all great .

That Stapleton kid really is great! Thank you Herm for bringing him back out. The content is so rich , it's like going there so interesting and it's great to see the things we've heard about but straight from the horse's mouth is wonderfull!

I got suggested his channel by RU-vid a few years ago. He does great work. I watched a lot of his Nascar stuff.

Dale jr needs to have hem on hes podcast he did a thing on Robert G

Stapleton42 is an awesome youtuber, amazing guy and phenomenal historian! Kenny Im glad to see him on show, i hope he can tour with dale jr one day and hear some of his storys. One of my favorites was the kerry earnhardt tour. Mitchell if you see this, know i always drop what i do when you upload and watch it right then, you're awesome and keep doing what your doing and making content i love.

Mitchell is a good dude and his authenticity shows in his videos. I loved when he interviewed you Kenny. My connection to you is you were my only pit pass when you were with Square D, it was at Richmond around 2000. I’m probably a little older than you but I’ll never forget it. I also ran into Rusty eating lunch at Pinehurst but that’s another story. Lol

From a fan to a significant participant in the sport. Congrats !!!

I think you opened a lot of doors for Stapleton .Kenny . After your interview he seemed to be interviewing a lot of famous stock car people .. jmo

i was watching him before he moved to n.c.love him and pretty logan!

I just watched this again, first I love me some Kenny Wallace, but also I love Stapleton42, Mitch what you are doing is so cool and I feel like you are the Alan Kulwicki of NASCAR history. Small operation, perfectionist who cares about the end result and the results are showing sir.

I was drawn into the world of Stapleton42 by his video from when he was looking to buy a motorhome that was previously owned by Dale Earnhardt Sr, which led to other motorhome fix up videos, which led to Mark Martin (who is at heart a motorhome guy)...

The Darrel Waltrip hauler videos put Stapleton42 on my radar but the Mark Martin videos got me to subscribe to follow the journey.

Thanks Herm, Mitchell drops some great content for us old school folks and his GF isn’t hard at all to look at unlike myself and you..😂😂🤣🤣😂🤣

Two of the best you tubers. Stapleton you are awesome and Kenny, well what can you say about him. So I tagged him "HERMINATOR THE EXTERMINATOR". Thanks to both of you for what you are doing. I really enjoy what y'all are doing . Keep it up!!!!

Great interview Kenny. Mitchell and Logan are good hard working people.

Great job Kenny and Mitch!! Absolutely correct, the realness and genuine interest is what keeps people (me, for sure) coming back. The interviews and site visits fill in so many many missing pieces of the full picture of the lives of racing folks I’ve watched for years and years. Keeping it casual and fun is like getting to hang out with y’all. Thanks SO much! Keep ‘em coming😀✌️

2 of the best RU-vid channels on the market.

Thanks Kenny. That was Awesome. Mitchell and Logan, keep up the good work 🤩

I love this dudes channel. He said what ive felt all along, hes gotten to meet all these greats and see these neat places because hes a true fan and not just trying to get a video and the people can see that and theyll open up a bit, when theyve spent most of their careers having to keep their guard up

Authentic JEG's. Quality racing part's.

Kenny, great conversation. I love Mitchel and Logan's work. Don't forget Logan is a car girl she has a Mustang she is turning every bolt on to get it restored and ready!

Mitchell is cool! Love what he's doing with the Nascar history!

Love Stapletons channel!

Kenny great show as usual I think Stapleton is one of the best out there. He is so smart and does a great job explaining the stuff

I only actually subscribe to a handful of channels, and this one and Stapleton42 are in that list! I designed three of Kenny's NASCAR cars (Nationwide at the time) and have followed Stapleton since I found him on the Earnhardt trailer video! Glad to see you guys do this together, such a great interview!

My 2 favorite RU-vidr’s together again hells yes ! 🏁🏁🏁

"King racing", I live four miles away- Napa auto parts is in the front. JGR is right around the corner, 23XI is right down the road. Dale Sr's old shop is right down the road. The audio of a cup car running is awesome.

I watched Mitchell's videos before the Mark Martin Tour and a grand tour it really was! All I could think was this is So Cool, then the Wallace story's and I have seen Every One Since. One of the newer interviews was with Andy Hillenburg and had such a great time he was Thanking Mitchell and Logan for the search for history . You rock also Kenny ! Best of Luck and Skill Always.

Two of my go to RU-vid video creators in the same video. Awesome.

Mitchell is an awesome creator (RU-vid & fabricator) & great historian!!!

I'm talking too much, but I envision a series of Ken Burns type documentaries on racing, NASCAR, F1...dirt tracks...etc all Made by Mitchell Stapleton...and I will have my popcorn ready to watch everyone.

Let me tell ya, I am probably Mitchell Stapleton biggest fan. I’m certainly think in my mind anyway. I am huge on the nostalgia and history. its always interested me anyway, I’m kind of a history buff, but when I started doing this with Nascar, when social media on RU-vid started coming around and you can learn and dig in all these things it’s just been awesome. I cant express I’m words. But just driving by a garage that used to be used by Anuel Wallace let’s say many many years ago we’re driving by your house of Jr Johnson is so cool and I’ve started doing it myself privately.. it is a unique feeling. I think I know how Chris feels and what it means. My question for Kenny as does he understand that or do you? I mean understand that your name is part of those big time family NASCAR names of people think about they wanna see where you lived where are used to work and how you came up they see a cart of you at a flea market near Daytona from the late 80s early 90s are you aware that these things are going around you and you’re part of that nostalgia????

Love Mitch. ......Logan too

Mitch and logan's knowledge of NASCAR reminds me of dale jr when he brings up stories of the old days.😀

The history of Nascar...cars, tracks, drivers, everything Nascar is so great...especially because of how humble it was and how big it got...unfortunately, at this moment, the history is much more rich than the current product. I don't know if Bill Sr. Could do today what he did 30- 70 years ago...but he and Bill Jr had an amazing thing going on...and I hate overusing the word Amazing.

There could easily be a part 2 video.👍

I really liked the video he did on Kerry Earnhardt. All the footage he showed about Kerry and the story how Kerry grew up was pretty cool.

Great interview Kenny! Really enjoy his channel and content! Thx

Thanks Kenny great interview

Simply awesomeness!

Kenny, what you said about the money and you born into it that was 100% true people did believe that when they saw Rusty make it. we all thought he would help you out and pass that money towards you but in reality that’s not the truth that’s NASCAR has fucking struggle hard to get there ain’t

Great interview! Have been following Mitchell's channel for about 4 months now trying to get caught up on all of his videos. The hometown video he did with you was my favorite. Thank you for helping Mitchell out. I enjoy seeing a lot of these historical shops/tracks and interviews(started following NASCAR around 1994). Thank you both for being genuine down to earth people. Keep up the great videos(both of you)!

He is amazing

Great show 🏁

I enjoy the content of you both. Stapleton’s is perfect for at the end of the day wind downs. Kenny’s is perfect for the morning to get my day started at 200mph LoLoL. Appreciate you both. I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again. Wallace Brothers have worked their butts off for something that put them on the maps. Respect! 🫡

300thousand!!! Wonder how many can say SUCK IT COLE !! Followed him from his week of rocky mountain with the escalade , keep up the great work!!!

Awesome video thanks

Great video!

Awesome video very inspiring and informative now I need to catch up on his videos I missed

My first video of his was the one on Dales motor coach

I love the stapleton vids i basically started with the mart martin 1s, then rusty you, and kerry. so cool seeing the places while hearing the stories.

Great Job Herman😊😊
