    Man I miss these days , the old cars, that high pitch snarling beast sound of the pack of cars, the old Hendrick/DEI rivalries of the restrictor plate domination, good times.

    "Jeff was our preseason favorite to win the championship" And he would and should have. Damn Chase.
  • Gordon used this same car at Talladega for the spring race the following year. Clearly the most dominant car in the field. Great run at the restrictor plate tracks for Jeff from this race until 2005 spring Talladaga, winning 3 out of the 4 races.

    This was a awesome, I was there in 2004 when Jeff won from the pole, but there was some tragedy, a man with his daughter got hit by lightning 50 ft from where I was standing in the souvenir area outside the speedway, girl was ok, but the dad wasn't, they didn't take the green til after 930pm and ended close to 1am, hell of a good feeling to see your favorite driver win in person.

    NASCAR used to be such a glorious thing to sit down and watch on a Sunday (or Saturday night). Throw some burgers and hot dogs on the grill, throw a 12 pack on ice…… Don’t get me started on how awesome it was if you had the honor of being at Talladega in the mid 90s early 2000s Now it’s just pure political garbage with empty seats, like everything else

    2:37:00 - Jeff starts pushing the Powerade bottles off the car 😂
  • This is when hendrick meaning mostly jeff started chipping at dei s restrictor plate domination
  • @quasimoto7662
    Millions of Coca Cola C2 cars, and guess what? The Pepsi car won.
  • Odd that fox allowed dws extreme jr bias to go on every race especially the restriction plate races

    Between the years of 1997/98 - 2006/07 was the best these things sounded and raced at these restrictor plate tracks. I may be off a year or so. Hence the reason I put the seasons as I did. I forgot the 98 Pepsi 400 was the first year for it being under the lights.

    20 of us from Bermuda was at this race it rained like crazy we were tailgating in the Best Buy parking lot during the rain delay
  • The only Restrictor Plate Races that DEI and HMS didn't win from 2001 to 2007 was the 2001 Talladega 500, 2002 Daytona 500, 2003 Pepsi 400, 2005 Pepsi 400 2005 UAW Ford 500, and 2006 Pepsi 400. Also since the Cup Series went to the Gen6 car in 2013, Ford has won 12 of the 21 Restrictor Plate Races. 7(5 straight) at Talladega and 5 at Daytona.
