These are the unsung heroes of NASCAR. Never get any of the attention, but have such a crucial outcome on a race. Love seeing the crews get highlighted
So are the truck hauler drivers without them there would be no car for the pitcrew.
They're not former athletes, they're still very much athletes that are an essential part of a sports team.
Very much. Yes 🙏🏼💯
Former???? These people are working just as hard as they were in stick&ball sports
Love it!! Shoutouts to the teacher who brought the Black athletes in. Could be our real introduction to the sport.
Diversity means BLACK only, I guess
@@mewe9020if you know any Asians who wanna bench press tires, speak up.
A good friend of mine back in the mid nineties tried to form a all black pit crew. It was a great vision for us at the time when I was working at a historically black university in Fayetteville NC. We traveled to Rockingham , Charlotte, Darlington, and one more track, pitching our Pit Crew Team. At that time Buddy Baker's Dad, Buck, was holding one of those driving schools at Rockingham. He nodded his and agreed it was very noble and wished us luck. Couldn't get a bite- so good to see this happening finally in the sport. We can't be divided today - this political rift that's happening in our nation most not consume us. We are one nation under God, and are called to act like we know
"Former athletes" ??? They ARE athletes!
Right there, is when seconds TRULY counts
Gregor Mendel would be so proud.
Something I never thought of but makes so much sense.
I might be able to pump the jack once then gonna need a break
This is going to be effing awesome!
Do they earn a decent wage? I have always wondered if those out crew are well paid
🏁✌🏾
This is nothing new
Why they still train on 5 lug nut?
NASCAR needs to slow down the pit stops. They are trying to be F1 and they need to be NASCAR. It is such a boring thing to watch because pit stops no longer matter the way they once did
