  • That Uber driver had to be like “WTF? I’m driving Tony Stewart 2 1/2 hours to F’ing bike week!”

    Poor Ken Block. He passed just a ways down from our family’s property, snowmobiling.

    I have been telling everyone that if you go to a drag race, you get a really up close experience. If NASCAR would try to be more like that they might get back to where they were. NHRA is like no other experience.!!!!!
  • Drag racing is just an awesome damn thing to experience. The drivers and crews are just amazing. It is incredible just how accessible the drivers are to fans and how friendly and talkative they are. I'll never forget being a 13 year old kid way back around 1990 and going to the local drag strip to watch the races. One day I was out walking around in the pits and taking photos of race cars. One guy who had a really gorgeous dragster must have caught me standing there staring at his race machine and walked over and struck up a conversation. Before I knew it, I was strapped into the seat of that dragster and he was answering all the questions I had about various race related procedures. After experiencing that, I was a fan for life. Drag racers are the nicest people you could ever want to meet. I mean here was a guy who didn't know me from Adam, who was probably busy between rounds, yet he went out of his way to be nice to me and make me feel welcomed. That kind of thing is common around the drag strip too. This is unique aspect of drag racing you don't see in any other form of motorsports.
  • Gonna have to listen to the full episode. This video is such a great interview with Smoke. He and Leah seem to be so solid and I’m so happy for them both.
  • People dont like Tony, but i have always been a fan of his. Got to start one of his cars at talladega in 1999 when i was 12 yrs old and he was a super nice guy. I believe it was 99. I remember dale sr won and tony crashed out about midway through if the ol' memory is correct lol. Guy is just passionate! How can u not like that

    Dodge and Pennzoil Ford and Mobil 1 That's so funny! I describe it Tony and Leah's own private Cold War... at least they didn't butt heads! Imagine if they did!
  • Would be awesome to have Amy and Leah and Jr. and Tony do a podcast. It would break the internet. Mike could create questions that both couples could answer. The last couple of podcasts with Jr. and Amy have been incredible. It would be tough to schedule but it would be huge.

  • Great video! That oil situation was hilarious! Racer problems!
  • @louiesmom7394
    What a great story about how they met!! ❤❤❤🥰🥰🥰
  • Met Tony at Fontana when he was still racing NASCAR, awesome person.
  • I was raised up on NASCAR, but drag racing is my first love. Smoke comes over to drag racing. Hes like my instant favorite. I haven't sat down and watched a NHRA event in years. Its pure gold. Dale sir, you should hop into a Pro Modified car and have some fun.
  • I met Leah at the NHRA event in Phoenix Around 2014 or so. She was very nice and Smoke is right the fans are accessible to the drivers which was cool.

    Maybe NASCAR could actually learn something if some NASCAR CEO's went to some NHRA Drags and watched the Fan interaction and how they can basically go anywhere and not have to pay tons more money for it. Like Smoke said, it's a much more laid back atmosphere. Happy that Smoke found his Love in a dragster. Figures.
