In the third and final installment of our interview, Andy Papathanassiou remembers the departure of Ray Evernham from Hendrick Motorsports, the establishment of what amounted to a pit-crew department there, a terrible day in Martinsville and finally, his own departure from the organization he'd served for nearly three decades. We then take a peek at the October 1, 1992 issue of Winston Cup Scene. Geoff Bodine wins a rain-delayed race at Martinsville, while Rusty Wallace, Brett Bodine, Kyle Petty and Alan Kulwicki follow him to the stripe. There's some movement in the Winston Cup standings … with Alan making up some fairly major ground. Dave Marcis and Michael Waltrip have at it and Mongo makes his way from West Point to pit road. Last but not least, we have reaction from Junior Johnson to a costly call at Dover andTim Brewer's reaction TO that reaction.

This week in the first of what will be three installments of our interview, Andy Papathanassiou takes us through his academics-first, athletics-second upbringing in New Jersey and how that helped land him a football scholarship at Stanford. Andy started all four years of his college career, but a major surgery left him at a crossroads in his athletic career. And THAT's when NASCAR first came into the picture. We then take a deep dive into the June 14, 1990 issue of Winston Cup Scene. The paper didn't have anybody on the crime beat, so there was no coverage in this issue of Andy Papa's first race ever and him sneaking into the garage. Rusty Wallace and Ricky Rudd are back at it at Sears Point, while Joe Whitlock turns in another masterful column … this one about his longtime friend Buddy Parrott. And … sadly … short-track legend Butch Lindley succumbs to injuries he'd sustained in a racing accident five years earlier.

A NASCAR Hall-of-Fame driver, Rusty Wallace's place in the sport is solidified. The 1989 Cup Champion and founding driver of Roger Penske's NASCAR organization, Rusty would cut his teeth in the midwestern ASA racing scene alongside other legends like Alan Kulwicki and Mark Martin. Coming up with limited means, he would go on to become […]

This week in the first installment of our interview, Gary DeHart remembers getting his start in drag racing and his entrance into NASCAR with team owner Billy Hagan and driver Terry Labonte.   The team's money issues forced Gary to work two jobs in order for him to be able to pay the bills. He eventually left the team when a request for a raise was turned down, but not before winning the 1984 Winston Cup championship.   We then dig into the November 29, 1984 issue of Grand National Scene.   Geoff Bodine takes advantage of Bobby Allison's late-race flat tire to win the rain-soaked season finale at Riverside, while Terry Labonte overcomes Harry Gant in the battle for the 1984 Winston Cup championship.   Rusty Wallace wins freshman honors, despite enduring a difficult season with team owner Cliff Stewart. Bobby Rahal makes his one and only Winston Cup start for the Wood Brothers. Darrell Waltrip talks about safety in the wake of a fatal accident the week before at Atlanta, and also discusses rumors that he might buy into Junior Johnson & Associates.   And Steve Waid has a column for the ages.   IMPORTANT NOTE: We're not going to be asking for any support this week for the podcast or YouTube channel. t would be FAR more appropriate to recommend that you make whatever donations you can to your charity of choice to help out in and around western North Carolina.

This week Dale Earnhardt Jr. has a conversation with a man he thought he'd never get to interview, longtime NASCAR Race Director David Hoots. In this episode, David opens up about how he made decisions in the booth, his thoughts on current NASCAR officiating, including the Austin Dillon penalty, his toughest calls in the booth, and how things ended at NASCAR.That leads to the reason Dale didn't think this interview would happen. He assumed David would be working in the control tower booth for many years to come, and that seemed to be the case until a cluster of NASCAR layoffs in January of 2019. After a run of nearly two decades, stretching back to the fall Rockingham event on the 1988 schedule, David's reign as chief steward for the Cup Series came to an end. The story of how David came to be in the booth starts in a likely place: Bowman Gray Stadium. David explains that his family began taking him to Saturday night races at the famed bullring when he was young, and he caught the racing bug at an early age. He initially took a position scoring cars in trade for free admission to the races, but his fascination with the race cars pushed him to wander into the world of technical inspection. From Bowman Gray, he began working at NASCAR regional events for the Sportsman and Modified divisions before the series were organized into their respective tours. He would stay on with the NASCAR Busch Grand National and the Winston Modified Tour before he caught the eyes and ears of Les Richter, who asked if he'd like to give the NASCAR Cup Series a shot. That day came on October 23, 1988 at Rockingham, where Rusty Wallace brought home his third victory in a row on his way to a second-place points effort. What followed for David Hoots was an illustrious career that saw him become one of the most revered officials in the modern era of NASCAR.21+ and present in North Carolina.

Dale Earnhardt Jr. sits down with NASCAR Hall of Fame executive director and former MRN Pit Reporter Winston Kelley to share over 30 years of stories from behind the microphone.Winston's career is rooted in his passion for the sport of NASCAR, dating back to his first job working on road for free. From there, Kelley has practically seen it all. He recalls working iconic races in the sport's history, including Cale Yarbrough, Richard Petty, and Jeff Gordon's final races. Winston was also Dale Earnhardt's final interview at the 2001 Daytona 500, and recalls Earnhardt's mood on the grid before the race. With a career behind a microphone comes difficult moments. Kelley remembers interviews with Dale Earnhardt after his multiple heartbreak losses in the Daytona 500, and the moment he was caught in the middle of the feud between Rusty Wallace and Earnhardt. As the Executive Director of the NASCAR Hall of Fame, Winston is living out his own childhood dream working with his heroes and building the legacy of the Hall. Kelley has been with the Hall since they broke ground to build the museum in 2006, and describes what it's like to watch inductees go through the process of entering NASCAR's most prestigious club. They close the interview discussing the best and worst interviews of his career. Between cutting it up with Tony Stewart after the race, to the poorly worded question that cost him big, Winston has no shortage of great stories to share. 21+ and present in North Carolina.

Here's what our listeners need to know about this week's installment of our interview with Ricky Rudd.   We talk about his Busch CRASH and that astounding win two weeks later at Richmond, as well as his on-again, off-again relationship with Dale Earnhardt that was DEFINITELY off again in the late 80s at North Wilkesboro.   Ricky also discusses one of the most controversial finishes in NASCAR history, when his apparent 1991 Sears Point win was awarded to Davey Allison, as well as his years with Hendrick Motorsports.    We then page through the October 20, 1988 issue of Grand National Scene.    Rusty Wallace comes back from a scrape with Jimmy Means to beat Geoff Bodine to the stripe after a CRAZY last few laps at North Wilkesboro. Geoff bumps Rusty, Rusty bumps Geoff, Ricky Rudd bumps Dale Earnhardt, Dale SPINS Ricky, Ricky PUNTS Dale.    There are features on the debate over a traveling safety team in NASCAR, Lynda Petty and Barbara Nelson, who'd recently found the son she'd given up for adoption.   Rusty Wallace's recent win at Charlotte is celebrated in quite extravagant style, Harold Kinder gets handcuffed to the fence at Charlotte AND Jack Ingram has a wee bit of a problem with his trailer going TO Charlotte.

Dale Earnhardt Jr. sits down with longtime NASCAR crew chief Paul Andrews to learn more about his journey from being a vacuum repairman to a Cup championship-winning team leader. After being raised by his grandparents in Louisiana, Paul found his way to St. Louis where he reconnected with his mother and took a job working at his stepfather's motel as a maintenance person. When he was working on a vacuum cleaner one day, he went to the local O.K. Vacuum store where he connected with Rusty Wallace, his father Russ, and Uncle Gary, and soon after took a job with the company. Along with this new role of employment came the opportunity to work in Rusty's race shop after hours, and Paul began traveling with Rusty as he found his footing in the short-track late model and NASCAR worlds.Once Wallace went full-time NASCAR Cup racing in 1984, Paul again found himself in Louisiana, this time running Rusty's sportsman late model program. Paul temporarily retired from the sport in 1986, but it wasn't long before he took a call from up-and-comer Alan Kulwicki, establishing one of the hardest-working duos in the Cup garage. The team would overcome the odds and bring home the 1992 Cup season championship. After Alan's untimely passing in a 1993 plane crash, the team was bought out by Geoff Bodine, and Paul would spend a couple of years honoring his late friend before moving on to other endeavors with Kranefuss-Penske, Dale Earnhardt Inc., Petty Enterprises, and Michael Waltrip Racing. Today, Paul can be found taking it easy, managing his various properties and moonlighting from time to time as a crew chief for JR Motorsports' late model stock program, working with Dale Jr. when he gets behind the wheel for short track competition.

We get things started off this week with a stunning find ... Rick's old mini-cassette tapes featuring interviews with a number of long-lost members of the NASCAR community.   Sandy Jones then remembers a team divided at Junior Johnson and Associates, Tim Brewer's jaunt through Ingle Hollow, and parting ways with the team.

Bobby Allison was unhappy with a two-car situation at DiGard … so he leaves and JOINS a two-car operation with the Stavola Brothers.   Rusty Wallace makes the move from Cliff Stewart to Blue Max. There's a Sandy Jones photo bio. Mark Martin has a new Cup deal. Michael Waltrip loses his crew chief to a terrible highway accident. Richard Petty undergoes surgery … and … finally … the name Grand National gets dropped from the Cup series and moves to the Busch Grand National division.   NOTE: This show is not associated in any way with American City Business Journals, owner of the Scene brand.   Be sure to check out the latest and greatest stories from the world of NASCAR at dailydownforce.com!   Interested in The Scene Vault Podcast T-shirts?

We don't typically cover weekly short-track racing to any great extent … except when it comes to folks getting started out there.   But with Gray Garrison's LONG family history with Big Bill, Billy, Jim AND Annie France, it's one of those interviews that we couldn't NOT do, especially considering the recent announcement of NASCAR acquiring the racing lease at Bowman Gray Stadium in Winston-Salem, North Carolina.   This WASN'T one of those business associations where NASCAR sanctioned races at Bowman Gray for a LONG time.    The France family LIVED with Gray's maternal grandparents, Alvin and Heloise Hawkins, and Alvin sat just one other person removed from Bill France Sr. in the famous NASCAR organizational meeting at the Streamline Hotel on December 14, 1947.   Gray's grandmother changed Jim France's diapers, so, yes, last year was NASCAR 75 … and Gray's family was there from the VERY beginning.   We then tackle the August 6, 1987 edition of Grand National Scene.   NASCAR puts a strict limit on testing during the offseason and competitors from one end of the garage to the other celebrate. There are features on caterer Jane Hogan; another on the reaction of Cale Yarborough Motorsports to the loss of one of their own; and the luck … or lack thereof … of Blue Max Racing and driver Rusty Wallace.    We have a photo bio on some guy named Tony Liberati, a column by the ticked-off Joe Whitlock ... and … finally … a press release in which Tim Richmond talks about looking forward to the upcoming Southern 500.

FIRST … we're gonna dig into the January 30, 1997 issue of Winston Cup Scene. Shawn Parker appears on the cover … along with teammate Ken Sapper … as they work on the rear-end housing from Rusty Wallace's Penske Racing South Ford. We get preseason stories on Rusty and Jimmy Spencer, as well as features on Ned Jarrett and a throwback to Darrell Waltrip's win in the 1989 Daytona 500. Andy Graves doesn't exactly go all out in his photo bio, and "Pappy" Tom Higgins gets a NASCAR-related fact wrong in writing about astronauts. THEN in the second installment of our interview, Shawn Parker talks about protecting his team's turf on pit road, which led to maybe … just maybe … a scuffle or two with members of OTHER teams. He talks about the wholesale crew changes that were made at the end of every season in and around the Mooresville race shops. He then turns his attention to meeting Tara Howell, her critical health issues and the subsequent heart transplant she endured and … best of all … the adoption of their son, Jagger. FINALLY … we'll be joined by Xfinity Series driver Joey Gase to talk about HIS passion for getting the word out about organ and tissue donation.

Shawn also worked for Penske Racing and Rusty Wallace; Roush Racing and Mark Martin; and Dale Jarrett. He then takes us on a journey that is one of the most emotional that we've ever featured here on The Scene Vault Podcast. This week, Shawn talks about getting into NASCAR with Jeff Gordon, where he's very reluctantly introduced to Jeff's pet python snake. He gives us his view on what it was like to work for Ray Evernham and go over the wall for the first time in NASCAR's greatest race.

Longtime crew chief Brian Pattie joins Davey Segal this week (6:40) on the heels of their win at Atlanta with Kyle Busch to discuss his 30th year of working in NASCAR. Pattie reminisces on the good, bad and ugly of a lifetime atop the pit box and at the race shop, from his first job of fabricating at NEMCO, to his first Cup win in 2010 at Sonoma with Juan Pablo Montoya, runner-up points finish with Clint Bowyer in 2012 and more. Pattie also discusses his long relationship with Kyle Busch, including a funny story about the first time Rowdy tested a car at Charlotte, where his love for road course racing came from, time working with Ron Fellows as an OG road course ringer, how the Reutimann family helped spark his passion for motorsports and more, including expectations for the No. 7 Spire Motorsports Truck Series Chevrolet in 2024 and who we can expect to see wheeling the truck. Papa Segal pays homage to Rusty Wallace and Davey dives into the all-time finish over the weekend that saw Daniel Suarez edge Ryan Blaney and Kyle Busch by 0.003 seconds in the third-closest finish in NASCAR history at Atlanta.

Our journey through the 2004 season continues with the early months of the year. Episode 2 highlights include the final race at Rockingham, Jimmie Johnson scoring his first victory at Darlington and Rusty Wallace ending a nearly 3-year long winless streak.

This is Stephen Schmidt from the Gazette Digital News Desk, and I'm here with your update for October 4, 2023.It will be cooler Wednesday with a chance for rain in the morning. According to the National Weather Service there will be a 30 percent chance of showers and thunderstorms in the Cedar Rapids area, mainly before 11 a.m. Other than that, it will be mostly cloudy, then gradually becoming sunny, with a high near 81 degrees.According to reporting from the Associated Press, House Speaker Kevin McCarthy was voted out of a job Tuesday in a showdown forced by a contingent of hard-right conservatives, throwing the House and its Republican leadership into chaos. It was the first time this has happened in the nation's history..McCarthy's chief rival, Rep. Matt Gaetz of Florida, orchestrated the rare vote on the obscure “motion to vacate,” and pushed ahead swiftly into a dramatic afternoon roll call vote.Stillness fell as the presiding officer gaveled the vote closed, 216-210, saying the office of the speaker “is hereby declared vacant.Next steps are highly uncertain as the House is in uncharted terrain, and there is no obvious successor to lead the House Republican majority.Mercy Iowa City has received at least one bid to compete with the University of Iowa's $20 million offer to purchase substantially all its assets as part of the hospital's Chapter 11 bankruptcy petition — triggering an auction Wednesday morning in Chicago.Attorneys didn't disclose how many bids Mercy received to compete with the UI offer — which set the minimum at $20 million and required an additional “breakup fee” of $800,000 — or 4 percent — to surpass. That means any competing bid has to be at least $20.9 million — including the breakup fee and a required bid increment of $100,000.Originally, Mercy wanted to impose both a breakup fee and a $400,000 expense reimbursement for the time UI administrators spent working on their offer. But Mercy's largest bondholders objected, lowering the bar to compete.Proactive safety measures put in place Tuesday in the Cedar Rapids Community School District following a threat made on social media will remain in place through Friday.Captain Charlie Fields, commander of the Community Services Division of the Cedar Rapids Police Department, however, said school would not have resumed if the police department did not think it was safe.“We are confident in the fact that school is safe for the kids to be in,” Fields said. “We have worked for several years with the Cedar Rapids Community School District to put school safety plans in place for incidents such as what we are experiencing right now.”There was about 60 percent student attendance at schools Tuesday, and the majority of staff were present and “prepared to support our students,” Superintendent Tawana Grover said during a news conference Tuesday.The best stock car drivers in the world will compete next summer in Iowa, officials announced Tuesday.The first-ever NASCAR cup race in the state will be in June at the Iowa Speedway in Newton, a track designed by NASCAR Hall of Fame member Rusty Wallace.“I was hoping we'd get it. And we got it. It's going to be a hell of a show, I can tell you that,” Wallace told reporters Tuesday after a news conference on the Iowa Capitol grounds in Des Moines.

This week's episode kicks off with hosts Rick Houston and Steve Waid sitting down with Las Vegas Motor Speedway President and General Manager Chris Powell and NASCAR Hall of Famer Rusty Wallace for a very special announcement. Then, in the third and final installment of our conversation, Archie Kennedy talks about his disappointment at being cut from the Petty Enterprises over-the-wall pit crew and how that might or might not have played into the difficult decision to tell Richard and Lynda Petty that he would no longer be driving their motorhome. After leaving Petty Enterprises, Archie went to work for another ultra-significant figure in NASCAR history … Jeff Gordon. We then take a deep dive into the October 5, 1995 issue of Winston Cup Scene. Mark Martin wins at North Wilkesboro, but it's Ernie Irvan in the spotlight as he makes his return to competition. Ricky Rudd gets all bitc … sorry … Ricky Rudd is not pleased with NASCAR when he's forced to return to the pits late in the race to tighten loose lug nuts. It's revealed that Ted Musgrave got REALLY close to Bobby Hamilton in their battle for the 1991 rookie-of-the-year title. Curtis Markham doesn't let a little thing like blindness hinder HIS attempts to win the 1995 Busch Series freshman title. Archie Kennedy finds himself in Scene's Photo Bio section. Rusty Wallace talks about his dream vehicle … and it AIN'T on four wheels. Slim Jim moves its sponsorship to Jason Keller's team … and gives away A LOT of product. Finally, the legendary PR rep Tom Roberts extends an incredible streak of being at the track.

In the conclusion to our interview, Jeff Green talks us through making the very most … and then some … out of the opportunity of a lifetime with team owner Greg Pollex and crew chief Harold Holly. Jeff also discusses his rocky relationship with Kevin Harvick and his departure from Richard Childress Racing, his efforts with Dale Earnhardt Incorporated, his tenure with Richard Petty at Petty Enterprises AND the decision to head back home to Kentucky. We then take a look into the July 27, 2000 issue of Winston Cup Scene. Rusty Wallace wins at Pocono after teammate Jeremy Mayfield has a tire go down on the last lap, while a number of competitors blow off steam after their CARS blow off steam at the tricky triangle and Brett Bodine shows up at the track with a HANS Device. Jeff Green holds off his older brother David to land in victory lane at Pikes Peaks and extend his lead in the Busch Series standings even more. Kyle Petty drives his son Adam's Busch Series car, while Team Sabco puts Ted Musgrave … whose wife Debi had been diagnosed with leukemia earlier in the year … in its entry after the loss of Kenny Irwin.

This week in the first of what will be two installments of our interview, Larry Pearson talks about growing up as the son of NASCAR icon DAVID Pearson, racing with his brothers Ricky and Eddie, his move up the ladder from Baby Grand to Busch Series competition, his belief that he would've won the 1986 Busch Series championship even if Jack Ingram HADN'T been suspended and his ultra-superstitious ways. We then dig into the September 25, 1986 issue of Grand National Scene. Geoff Bodine has a good day at Martinsville, right up until his last pit stop. Rusty Wallace's crew got him out first and he went on to capture the victory, much to Geoff's chagrin. Ricky Rudd is FURIOUS with Kyle Petty, who uses an ambulance to ease out of the track. Jack Ingram misses Martinsville, but is still atop the Busch Series standings afterward and Gene Granger has the scoop on all that ailed the Elliotts that season.

Just one quick note before we begin ... pace car? Did somebody say PACE CAR?!?In the first of what will be three blockbuster installments, Robert Pressley talks about the role moonshine played on racing in and around his hometown of Asheville, North Carolina. The son of local stock-car legend Bob Pressley, Robert also remembers his father's many on- and off-track confrontations and the impact they had on his own driving career.Robert then takes us through a chance meeting with future NBA superstar and current NASCAR on NBC analyst Brad Daugherty, as well as the relationship they forged on the way up the racing ladder.Hosts Rick Houston and Steve Waid then dig into the August 17, 1989 newly renamed WINSTON CUP Scene.For the second week in a row, we'll take a look at a Rusty Wallace victory at Watkins Glen … but this one is MUCH different than the one we discussed in last week's episode. Rusty scored the win despite several issues that day, including a lawsuit he'd filed recently against team owner Raymond Beadle.Darrell Waltrip's tire carrier was struck on pit road by Dale Earnhardt and fellow future NASCAR Hall of Famer Ray Evernham works either his first or ONE OF HIS FIRST races as a Winston Cup crew chief. Tom Cruise is at the track, supposedly thinking about a movie based on NASCAR.Robert Pressley beats Tommy Houston and Tommy Ellis at Orange County to collect the first win of his Busch Series career. Winston Cup Director Dick Beaty shows his humorous side with a practical joke or two and Joe Whitlock shows us once again why he was the greatest writer ever to step foot in a NASCAR media center.NOTE: This show is not associated in any way with American City Business Journals, owner of the Scene brand.Interested in The Scene Vault Podcast T-shirts?

In the third and final installment of our interview with Larry Pollard, he talks about the up-and-down world of being a NASCAR Busch Series race-car driver. He WINS … but finds himself in and out of a couple of rides.And THAT was before he became one of a very few people in the sport to survive a devastating basal skull fracture, an injury he sustained while filling in for his injured then-father-in-law, Harry Gant.He takes us through the painful and frustrating journey to becoming Larry Pollard again, as well as the enjoyment he finds now in building gears for Late Model racers across the country.Co-hosts Rick Houston and Steve Waid then take a long look at the August 13, 1987 issue of Grand National Scene. Rusty Wallace is forced to the pits for a VERY late splash of gas, but still scores the win at Watkins Glen. Larry Pollard wins the Busch Series race at Langley Speedway, but you could barely tell it from the coverage the event received in this issue.The hauler carrying Davey Allison's cars and three crew members was involved in a serious accident as it neared Watkins Glen. Dale Earnhardt and Bill Elliott show up on NBC's The Today Show, but Dale isn't very happy with how it turned out.AND … "Pappy" Tom Higgins celebrates his 50th birthday!NOTE: This show is not associated in any way with American City Business Journals, owner of the Scene brand.Interested in The Scene Vault Podcast T-shirts?

The success of sports is often built on rivalries. Auto Racing is no different. Dale Earnhardt Jr. and co-host Mike Davis bring their favorite rivalries from the table of truth to this special episode. In the late 90's the NASCAR Xfinity Series was a hotbed for talent but also a series full of hot tempers. One of the great rivalries of the era was between an out-spoken northern driver, Champion Randy Lajoie, and an aggressive Georgian named Buckshot Jones. Dale Earnhardt had several rivals throughout his storied career. Most foe were created by physical contact between two racecars. Dale's rivalry with Ricky Rudd was personal. Rudd reveals how their shattered friendship lead to some legendary on-track altercations. Ron Hornaday Jr. is still not over it. In a 2011 NASCAR Truck Series race at Texas Motor Speedway, he and Kyle Busch made contact on the track. Busch proceeded to wreck Hornaday under caution. NASCAR may have parked and suspended Busch for the actions, but it was Hornaday who suffered the most. The incident cost him a shot at the Championship. It's a wound that isn't fully healed to this day. Some rivals start as best friends. Some, under the same roof. Jeff Burton and Ward Burton open up about how their different personalities and upbringing, created bad blood between one of Virginia's most beloved NASCAR families. Rusty Wallace and Dale Earnhardt were great friends behind closed doors. On the race track? Far from it. The two giants of the NASCAR world battled each other relentlessly, resulting in a library of contentious moments and altercations. Rusty opens up about it and we find out how it played into a rivalry with a young Jeff Gordon. Dale Jr. says that if there is a Mount Rushmore of Motorsports rivalries, the Geoff Bodine / Dale Earnahrdt rivalry would be on it. Bodine details his side of one of the sport's most talked about feuds. Last but not least, a colorful Jimmy Spencer gets down and dirty about his distain for Kurt Busch. How did "Mr. Excitement" get so mad that he punched Kurt Busch? ASKJr presented by Xfinity Before the rivalry talk Hannah Newhouse brought fan questions to Dale Jr. about: What track should host the Championship finale? What dream racecars would Dale Jr. like to test at North Wilkesboro? The mysterious red left front tire at Daytona in 2004. Lugs Harvey or Harry Hogg? Learn more about your ad choices.

In part one with Jeremy Mayfield we dove head-first into the former driver's failed drug tests, lengthy court battles, indefinite suspension from NASCAR and the tangled web of alleged conspiracy that shrouds his story. Today, Dale Earnhardt Jr. and Mike Davis speak with Mayfield about the mighty rise before his world came tumbling down. The Kentucky native started as a fabricator before working his way onto the Nashville Fairgrounds Late Model racing scene. Through hard work came opportunity. On the short track scene, Mayfield won races, even ones he wasn't supposed to be entered in. Yes, there's a story there! His short track success led to a rise into the upper-ranks of NASCAR. But at first, Mayfield didn't have the speed. So he had to get "creative" to gain and advantage. But first, he needed to get some soaked tires by NASCAR's technical inspection process. Mayfield reveals the "wink" that paved the way to furthering his young career. Mayfield opens up about negotiations with Cale Yarborough when he signed his first major deal with a NASCAR team. His timeline, though jagged, rose upward to the Kranefuss-Hass team and then to driving for the great Roger Penske. During this time, he was clearly making it know that he was a force to reckon with. An in-team rivalry with Rusty Wallace got to near ridiculous levels. The day he planted his flag in the ground was at Pocono in 2000 when he moved Dale Earnhardt, on the final corner, to win. Jeremy details the controversial tangle and what the Intimidator's reaction was the next time they saw each other. The biggest break for Mayfield came with Dodge and Ray Evernham's No. 19 team. Mayfield won races and raced his way into NASCAR's playoffs in the high-profile ride. But it wasn't without drama either. Internal struggles with Ray Evernham went public. Then, Mayfield made a final mistake. Dale Jr. gets to the bottom of what led to Mayfield's departure, and eventually led to the downfall of his racing career.   DIRTY AIR Before getting to part-two of the Mayfield story, Dale Jr. & Mike Davis get animated discussing: A wild St. Louis Cup Series race full of its own drama Ross Chastain's post-race "trolling"? Will Denny Hamlin and Chase Elliott exact revenge? Conor Daly and Joey Mullinaro bring it in Speed Street debut.   ASKJR Presented by Xfinity Fan questions delivered to Dale with X-fi speed by Hannah Newhouse about: NASCAR Crown Jewels.

Yates, a name synonymous with power. Master engine builder Doug Yates, son of NASCAR Hall of Famer Robert Yates, comes to "the table of truth" to share stories with Dale Earnhardt Jr., and co-host Mike Davis, about a family legacy filled with ups, downs and everything between. Growing up in North Carolina, the epicenter of modern stock car racing, Doug knew nothing different than his father Robert working on engines. But life in Charlotte shifted to the hills of North Wilkesboro. The Yates family uprooted, and went to work for NASCAR car-owner and folk hero Junior Johnson. Living on a farm, just steps away from a modest laboratory of speed, Robert Yates crafted horsepower into the wee hours of the night with his young son right beside him. Doug details the formidable years they spent in Wilkes County and how it prepared them for their racing timeline. When DiGard Racing came calling, Robert packed up and left the farm. The departure caused tension between Robert and Junior for years. It wouldn't be the only tension. Darrell Waltrip's departure from DiGard resulted in unspoken animosity that spanned decades. It wasn't until Robert's final months, before cancer took his life, that son Doug found a way to get them together to bury the hatchet. Doug gives us a unique perspective on DiGard's successes, like the ‘83 title run w/ Bobby Allison and the Daytona 500 win that some called “bumper-gate.” He also details dynamics that led to the fall of DiGard and his father leaving the sport. In 1985, just two years after his engine won, Yates watched the Great American Race from his television. But soon the sport that came calling for Yates again. Rick Hendrick was using his engines when Ford set up the next opportunity. Doug carefully details the alignment with Ranier-Lundy racing that led eventually led to the creation of Robert Yates Racing. While young phenom Rusty Wallace was in line to be their driver, Yates took a swing in a different direction, choosing a racer with a familiar pedigree, Davey Allison. With Allison's raw talent and the straightaway speed of Yates Engines, it created speed that even the Intimidator wasn't pleased with. Doug admits the Yates engines were cranking out about 50-horsepower more than the other Ford engines. This forced NASCAR to get involved. The following years of the Yates story read like a novel. Wins and a near title w/ Davey were followed by his untimely death in a helicopter crash in 1993. Yates opens up about his family's struggle with moving on from a driver that was like a son and a brother. Then, their next big star, Ernie Irvan's practice crash at Michigan International Speedway. Ernie returned from severe head injuries, to win w/ RYR, but the accident proved to stunt the growth of a once promising career. Most don't know that the next step for RYR nearly put Dale Earnhardt as the driver of the Texaco No. 28 Ford. What? But, it was Robert Yates who said he wanted another Dale. Once again, Yates went a different direction and his choice was Dale Jarrett. The combo proved lethal, netting the team two Daytona 500's and the 1998 NASCAR Cup Series Championship. Doug opens up about the unusual partnership that brought bitter rivals and the two giants of Ford Racing Engines to form an unlikely alliance. Just how did Jack Roush and Robert Yates agree to partner? Doug holds the key. The company still thrives today but not just in racing. They manufacture for medical companies, defense projects and even Elon Musk's Space-X program.
