Former Dale Jr fan to a Truex fan I don’t know who to pull for now. Thanks Truex. 🤘🏼🖤🧡
Same here.
Martin has always been a gentleman, a devoted competitor and a class act. Best wishes to you Martin and congratulations on an outstanding career. 🏁
44 years old with a net worth of $50 Million. Leaving on his terms. He won. Awesome. Guy.
One of the best you would want to meet. Top Rate Guy. Love's to hunt and fish and be outdoors. Best Wishes and Congratulations for all your success.
I have followed this boy since he started . One class act .So dam sorry to see him go. Good luck is in your future I know it. Wherever he lands ,I'm sure he'll succeed .😎✌👍
So sad to see you go. Congratulations on a fantastic career !! Enjoy what the future holds for you ! ❤
How incredibly rare is he in the fact that he became an absolute hall if famer in the last half of his career? Nearly a decade in and rhen everything took off, when talent meets opportunity..meets the right situation.
You can tell we’re in 2024 when you’re thanking the sponsors instead of talking about a guy that’s retiring
They’ve been doing that at least since the early 80s when I first started watching and reading things called newspapers 🫤
Thanks Martin for being the guy God put you on this earth to be…. Honest, integrity & shining His light as you navigate your journey… now who do I cheer for 😂 Enjoy your life you deserve every minute 🤠🤩
Martin live the best life you can. In the outdoors on your terms. Congratulations and much success.
Martin this is a win win situation for you stand tall!
I'm surely going to miss rooting for him
Martin receiving the short end of the stick in 2013, not giving up, personally and professionally. Ended up taking the nascar world by storm with his run at the 78. And he has a likely unbreakable record. Leading more miles than any driver in history, while fans complained about "boring", that's a hell of an accomplishment.
You can tell he didn't want this to be about him and not be the center of attention. Great man
Congrats man
He should have thanked dale jr. Just saying. He gave him his good break into the big league.
He did Dale Jr and Kelly 😊
He thanked them all. 21 years is a long time with that schedule. 36 weekends every year. I think I would be ready to go fishing and hunting too.
He has thanked Dale Jr in public about 100 times in his career. It's not the end of the world lol
Get over it man!! Like that Kenny! Good luck MT!! JIMBO
JGR is getting all the old guys out and it makes a lot of sense
that's the opposite of what he said though..."tried everything i could" " two 43yr old drivers at the top of their game"
No he just happened to have a lot of aging and worn out drivers. The schedule is grueling not to mention all the PR stuff you have to do all week. HMS had the same thing a few years ago with Johnson, Jr, and Gordon all close to the same time period. Mid 40s is now when drivers retire because they start 10 or 15 years younger than when they started in the 70s and 80s
My thinking too, JGR made the decision for him.
@@tonyguill6209 you guys just enjoy conspiracy theories. If Gibbs really actually wanted to show old guys the door he would’ve shown Hamlin the door who has no championships and doesn’t do much of squat other than snivel and gripe
@@tritontransportWell said, you are absolutely right, I would pick Martin over Denny every day.
I was involved in racing in one form or another since I was 6 years old. I got to 43 and my body was beat up I had no help and I decided I was over it. Kept going to watch races at least 1 or 2 big races a year, whether it was NHRA, IMSA or NASCAR for another 10 years. Tinnitus got so bad the last big race I went to was 2013 spring NASCAR race at Texas. Couldn't hear for 3 days after that, and I was over it. Was trying to watch the duels in 2016 until they went to a commercial break and ran 4 Hillary Clinton adds in a row, when it came up the 5th time, said, I'm over it and turned off the TV. Haven't watched a race since except for 24 hr.s of Le Mans and 24 hr.s of Daytona and Indy 500. I have gotten back to watching what is happening in auto racing with vids like yours Kenny Wallace. But I get the, " I'm over it".
Noah Gragson to JGR to drive the Bass Pro car?
Martin is and always will be a class act.
He’s an underrated driver primarily because he’s rather low key like Kenseth. I didn’t even know he has 34 wins in cup 🫤
I'm sure this has to be tuff, on you top tear racers, when you finally give it up, in cup... But still love your racing Kenny, and Martin will still be racing.... Might be boats. But racing
Please take denny with you 😂
Why is Joe G doing a "commercial" for MTJ's sponsors ?
MY FAVORITE DRIVER. SO SAD....
Martin is the first Driver in my Opinion since Jeff Gordon to really out on top. Tony didn't, Jimmie hasn't, Dale Jr didn't, Harvick sadly didn't, heck Mark Martin didn't. Even before Jeff Gordon in my life time to go out on top was your Brother Rusty. I was born in 2000 and have watched Nascar my entire life so seeing a legend like Martin go out on his own terms is a good thing.
He hasn’t won a race in about a year.
Yeah, he's going out at the right time. Good guy. Coach could have shut up.
@@Commentleaver-c6x look at Richard petty, Darrell Waltrip, Harry Gant and so many others. Those three I named went on these massive farewell tours and all of them retired 8 years after their last win or even top 10 season in points. Martin hasn’t won’t in a year but he also won three races last year and is a playoff contender this season. Short of him winning a championship this season I’d say that he’s finishing out on top
@@chrisbarrettFilmstudio i don’t know, to me going out on top would be winning the championship.
He was the Only likable guy from JGR racing.
I really think this car is frustrating for the older drivers who are used to using their TALENT and not relying solely on the car to win......makes the decision a little easier, I imagine
Jr and kelly are getting a charter or investment in one and Johnny Morris is involved ? and Trues will ,will drive that car at some point Proably several other drivers too ...A Team building is coming But Then maybe the Fire under Gragson in practice is cause he got the Gibbs Bass pro Ride ,But just maybe Truex is gonna be the experience that helps build a new Team ...But one thing bothers me Harvicks Agenda !! is he Managing at his Firm a Driver that was needing that Ride if Truex retired?? cause he sure was throwing a Lot a Shade truex's way over getting out there and announcing something Already not later $$$$$ ??? Things to ponder What s good having all that Money if ya dont take time to spend a Littlle and Live !! Good for you Martin T go Enjoy a little life wirth ya lady Make some Babies
might wanna watch Kenny's talk with Kelley right here on this channel. I dont see them getting a charter anytime soon until charters become something that make financial sense to own, and that isnt happening anytime soon.
I feel like Martin is being forced out !
I doubt it. Cup drivers now retire in their early and mid 40s because they now start late teens early 20s instead of starting in cup in their late 20s or their 30s and they make WAY more money now. Drivers used to have to race 40 years juat to pay their bills. I remember when Darrell Waltrip was the first driver to win $1 million dollars over the course of a long career. I think it was 1989 and he already had 3 cups and most of his 80 plus wins and it still took him that long to make that much in purse money
Why can't people believe what someone says? He has repeatedly given his reasons which make sense if you listen.
Maybe he had a deadline to decide.
Then why did Gibbs say he tried to keep him?
@@kristenwhite2701 and still going to run a few part time rasas here and there for Gibbs. Martin gets to have his cake and eat it too. He still will be working with the organization, can enjoy a private life as well as still race a car now and then part time
Seems like an awesome guy! But he has come off like a complete jerk the last few years at times! Especially after all the Sherry stuff went down, which we all know nothing about.......when the car was perfect, he could drive it to wins all day! Hell of a career 👏 only Denny is left from the old guard
That’s just what Joe Gibbs always does get rid of the old guys
They’re the Leonardo DiCaprio of NASCAR teams.
He wanted to keep him
@@kristenwhite2701 I’m sure he did
@@billgregory-ki8fg how can he always get rid of the old guys yet want to keep Martin??
What he really wanted to say wasn't said as usual.
Bet his girlfriend would love to have been here with him.
Anyone see MTJ's interview with Alex Weaver? He was smiling at her like they had something going. I think he wants to date her instead of race.
everyone looks at her like that lol have you seen her?
He hates these cars just like everyone else. And Nascar is a joke these days anyway. You can tell he’s just sick of it all.
I thought it was a great race. Leave it as it is. Personally I’m a Denny fan and he dropped like a rock, which is what should happen when you miss the setup. When you missed the groove, you had to hang on to the car. What more do we want
Put kyle busch in the 19 but change number to 18 next year is the rite thing to do😅
I swear these Reporters ask the dumbest questions ever. They are all practically asking the same questions over and over its like did you not hear him just answer that 2 seconds ago.
Truex is 2nd in line to Mark Martin for greatest drivers to never win a championship
Except that he won a championship 🏆
He won in 2017.
Not much of a fan .... he won a championship in 2017.
