Kurt is one of the last great racers left!! I have only cried about sports twice, when Rusty had his last race and when Kurt decided to retire!! Rusty was always my main man and when he retired I gravitated to Kurt!! NASCAR is officially going down hill now. Kenny you are the best and God bless Jughead!!!!!
Man has he changed over the years..didn't like him at first but he sure won me over..awesome guy and racer..good job Herman!!
same!
Kenny this Kenny Conversation stuff is briliant. No one else can do this. Thank you. Lots more to go.
Kurt is proof you can become a better person if you really want to. I didn't like him when he showed up and started talking crap about wanting to fight people but never backed it up with action. Now he is someone who makes those around him better and any team would be lucky to have him on their side and teaching their young drivers how to handle themselves in this tough sport.
It's crazy because I think his brother has done that as well.
Another great convo Herm! Kurt Busch is one of the most underrated drivers of all time. Guy could wheel! You’re absolutely right on how a big deal was never made of his run in the Indy 500, IMPRESSIVE!
Kurt is living proof that your past doesn't have to impact your future. He is very likeable and I really enjoy him in the booth. He helped set the 45 and 23 team for Tyler and Bubba. He is a blast to listen to.
Great conversation with one of the most underrated drivers of all times
Really awesome 😅 to have KURT on your video !! REALLY MISS KURT NOT BEING ON THE TRACK
Please support Breast Cancer awareness. Kurt Busch is a class act. And so are you Kenny. Keep the good Kenny things coming.
Awesome show Kenny, big shout out to Kurt, he's amazing and glad he spent some time with us.
You cant go wrong with the Wood Brothers! Best and most true thing I have ever heard.
One pure Talent hard driver. Thank you and Yes I agree one of the best
Loved the one Kurt is one of the great ones
I love Kenny Wallace! and people love Kenny Wallace too. Kenny has earned the respect of all these great drivers that he interviews. A bum with a podcast dont get champions to come on their podcast and talk. Kenny is the man! Much respect to Kenny for being a great ambassador to racing!
Thank you Kurt and Kenny, the “Long” explanation of leading up to the final call to get out of the car really makes sense. So much of it feels like a “Secret”… but in reality it factors in SO much and it takes time. Great explanation!
Kurt's my hero man! what a great show! I remember when he first showed up in NASCAR.. What a dude!
Jeg Coughlin.. hey Wallace great show with Kurt. Kurt made the veteran driver's mad.
Thank you thank you thank you Kenny for having Kurt Busch on Kenny conversation Curt was one of my favorite drivers I've been with him to thick and thin and Back Again when he turned Spencer around at Bristol I knew he was going to be my favorite driver
Glad you got Kurt on Kenny! Been a fan of his since ‘03. Got to meet him in 2019 at Kentucky and got to celebrate with him and the crew in victory lane. Best day of mine life for sure.
👍
One of my fav drivers only 2 favs in cup. He and your brother Rusty.
Great episode Herm!
Great interview !!!
I love what your doing Kenny!!!
Kurt is my all time fav driver. Broke my heart when he couldn't race full time anymore. He's the reason i still watched. He was my fav from day one. I really hope he can come back and race part time.
You both are amazing! GO PINK!!!
Great video Hermon thank Kurt loved watching you race
Thanks kenny loved that interview made me emotional 😢 love ur shows. STL strong thanks.
Thanks Kenny for having one of the GOATS 🐐 on! My all time favorite driver.
Another great episode. Man I love that guy.
New respect for Kurt,thanks Kenny! I was never a fan, but never a hater. My biggest memory of Kurt is he and Jimmy Spencer in turn one at the brickyard.
I wish you would have Kurt and Kyle Busch on the show together ! And I wish them to would go in the Hall of fame together !
But nobody likes Kyle 😂😂
Kurt won in all manufacturers. Ford, Dodge, Chevy and Toyota
Kurt really turned his life around early on in his cup career. A lot like Tony.
Very respectable & from the time he raced for SHR & after, I grew to enjoy watching him & rooting for him. I'm glad that after that nasty wreck, he can still work in the sport he's known all his life. & Help to improve it!
I love these Conversations, keep up the great work. This on with Curt was the best ever. You are able to laugh with the guy and still find out the untold story. These Conversations are great, love them.😊😊
Great Interview!
Go Kurt! 🙏🏁
yes sir, Mark!
@KennyWallace36 has anyone mentioned to Kurt, that he was the last full time driver to race against Sr in the cup series?
Best one yet Herm, great job with your leading questions, couldn't have been better!
Awesome !!!
It’s such a shame he gets hurt when clearly he was a CHANGED man. Like it was so hard to not be a Kurt fan while he was at 23xi !!
Damn I knew all them hits were adding up for him especially with how stiff the gen 7 car was last year. But I didn’t know it was that bad. Really wish KB could of went out on his own terms last year.
the race of gentlemen is too cool!
I'm from Las Vegas Kenny think I told you before and curtain, definitely my favorite driver specially Kyle but remember Kurt's Kyle Busch is my favorite driver always part of Rowdy Nation remember Donnie Allison third or fourth place finish at Indy
Super cool Kenny,Kurt great job!
Kurt is a completely different guy from where he was during his days in Roush and Penske it's great to see
& another great talk w/a great racer!
Absolutely loved the interview! Fantastic, thank you!
🤘🏻😎🤘🏻
Awesome stuff dude
Fish!
Good show 👍
I enjoyed list😢ending to Kurt. Love you Kenny.
I liked Kurt for a long time and hated him having to retire. He made every car and every team he drove for better. When he started driving for Stewart/Haas everyone was running his chassis setups because SHR was having issues. Harvick credited the organizations success from that point to Kurt. One of the best ever.
my first race was bristol 2002. Been a kurt fan ever since
Rule #1 you have to be a bad boy you have to be boo'ed ALOT you have to take beatings!!!!! To ever become the great comeback story and legend Kurt became 💪🏻
Kurt Busch is the man!!
Miss you Kurt,hope to see you at the track.
This conversation with Kyle Busch once he’s retired is going to be great. Imagine Kyle speaking with no worries.
Enjoyed rooting for Kurt when he was in a Ford. I believe big bro is the man in that fam to spite the stats.
I need a monster shirt ... love y'all
After Junior retired and I was looking for another driver to root for it was Kurt Busch I mean just think about the evolution of him from beginning to basically the end and how cool his growth was as the same thing with Kyle in a way but there's something about it since I'm 51 right now you know you want to root for a driver close to our age and you know that's why I enjoy watching Penny drive you know the jet with the jags it's gives you hope but what a good interview between to me old school fun NASCAR guys that competed enjoy guys you guys rock thanks Kenny for everything AKA the herminator
You mentioned Skinner in this interview... he's from my hometown of Susanville, Calif. Back when he was racing, their souvenir truck stopped off in Susanville prior to the Sonoma race. A few weeks earlier, Skinner and Earnhardt Sr were involved in a crash. I walked up to Skinner in the souvenir truck and asked him this. "How bad do you feel about wrecking Earnhardt a few weeks ago?" He looked at me and said, "do you want the politically correct answer or my personal answer?" I knew exactly what he meant... he never answered the question. We started laughing, shook hands and off I went. Not sure whether SR disliked Skinner for any specific reason, but my opinion is that SR didn't play well with others and essentially didn't want a teammate. What's your opinion, Kenny?
Kurt could drive Herbie up front. Awesome driver!!!!!
Thanks kenny i asked and u did it fir me ur so kool dude.
I am a Kurt Bush fan. The wheel hub broke apart, never has a wheel hub broke apart.
that 3rd party thing is one hell of a good idea!
Great interview.
Kenny! My man!
Man. I remember the sound of this.😂😂
Kurt has matured into one hell of a good guy
He should be first ballot.
Yes Sirrrrrrr💪🏻
thanks kurt n kenny love racing and yuns do it. i hit my head too kurt. it somehow makes you better to work through it. look forward to see you kick ass in some srx. teach kenny how to get fast
Six time Bristol winner. That trophy is the best!
he also ran a pro stock drag car
And Kyle and Kurt Retired for different reasons , and they both had great , but different careers 😊😅😮😢😂❤😂😊❤😊❤😊❤
Very nice. Hopefully someday you can track down Matt Kenseth in the Wisconsin woods somewhere for a chat.
He said thank you bud.
Kenny! Lol. Kurt showed up at 23xi today. the regular employes smiled and kiss ass with teeth. I walked in right behind him, big fan-97,2,45 what ever what is in between. an ex crew chief asked, do you want to see Deny? "go to the elevator and he is up there somewhere."
RE: Phoenix raceway. I’ve watched a few races here, was never fan of Greg Biffle, but Greg was exceptional to watch.
Miss some of these guys. Carl Edwards too. The people, not there team.
& the point thing is a good one too.
Yeah I agree that Kurt deserves to be a first round vote ❎ in cause he was a true winner 🥇 over the span of his career , and as Kenny pointed out Kurt was one 1⃣ of those drivers , who could run the top of most tracks , much like the Earnhardts ( Sr , and J r , and only a few others) and if he doesn't make it into the Hall on the first ballot , I won't understand why 😊😅😮😢😂❤😂😊😂😊❤😊❤😊❤😊❤
Kurt Bush fan. 97.
Yeah Kenny and Kurt both retired, for different reasons but they were both true winners and competitors their careers were such that they both deserved their nods, into the Hall 😊😅😮😂❤😂❤😂😊❤ 😊❤😊❤
Good talk.
Kenny I support pink for breast cancer but start a prostate cancer awareness for men. Kurt was my favorite Ford driver and Mark Martin and Dale Jarrett in the early 2000s
Plus Mark Martin
Kurt the GOAT... It sucks what happened to him..
Tell me about it
See him in my time,,,,legen. 😮😮😮😊😊 time ,,dirt in my beer 🍻
Kenny, youre a great interviewer! I think the racing helmut needs to be made bigger and with more foam/cushion. Got to do whatever it takes to protect the brain better.
Kurt Bush damn good driver. Almost as good as Kenny!!
Miss drivers like Kurt Busch, asshole when needed but hell of a wheelman
Kurt Bush should go back and do pro stock Drag Racing. He did great at that.
Wish he wasn't retired he still had more in the tank and I'm first
haha, congrats Charles!
@@KennyWallace36 lol thank you Herm I have a question a few months you were at my home track that's like 2 miles from my house lol you didn't race you were in town for the Apple Blossom Festival in Winchester Virginia would you ever come down herr to race your modified
I had no idea Kurt was suffering that bad , why did Rusty not like Newman as a teammate ?
Kurt has not always been easy to like, even when he was in a Dodge.
I still wish half of the last pair of full-time drivers who raced under Winston sponsorship, and the last full-time driver to have raced against Sr, could have at least had a short farewell tour.
I can glimps what they are looking at, grafic charts. How does that benifit the engineering department?
In the truck
I know the difference between .005 and .035 on a piece of paper no matter how thick that paper is. Mostly because I have run paper on a offset press for more than 20 years, yah all that is pretty dang tight, a Frigging fingernails thicker than that. 50:04
12:55 Them Indy Cars are sticky.
A wheel hub breaks apart/ never hgapened again.
Their Father raced Vs My uncle Billy Harper here in Vegas
Uncle Billy drove the wannabe
Levi Garrett 5
SweetWater 05
Looked exactly like it and Won a bunch of best looking ride trophies 🏆 😁
Won more of those than actual races 😁
Uncle Billy was Bad Ass RiP 🏁
Their Pops Tom started their lineage
But Kurt Kicked open the door into NASCAR’s Top 3 Series
and paved the way for Kyle
and as obviously talented Kurt is behind The Wheel
His Brother is literally amongst
Thee GOAT’s
like Petty , Earnhardt , Allison , Yarborough , Pearson, Johnson
Junior & Jimmy , Gordon
Kyle Busch is A GOAT 🏁
Kurt & Kyle maybe & probably is
Thee Best Brothers Duo in Racing
Labonte’s are there
Alison’s are too 1 sided
To be Thee Best overall for Brothers
But they’re still some of the best ever to do it.
I’m still surprised Kurt didn’t take Monster to Victory Lane in The Cup
So Talented
He was a sheeit head as a youngster
When He Won The 🏆
Vegas had a BiG Thing for Him on Fremont St and Myself , My xGF , a couple of My cousins & their wives went out to support & show Love to our local NASCAR Cup Champion whom I supported from day 1 & He was favorite Driver as soon as He hit the truck series so when He Won The Championship I was so fricken stoked
So We go down to support , show some love , sign the BIG CARD for Kurt & He comes out says 2 words and couldn’t leave fast enough.
The way He did it and the car guy for Rousch out there watching the car was an A Hole and turned Me off to Kurt completely
Didn’t support Him again until He started growing Up the past 5-7 years or so
& it was impossible not to root for Him in The Furniture Row Ride when doing so well
Him & Truex tore it up in that ride like no other drivers have ever done & made A ride look so good.
But Kyle, from Day 1 has been My Dude, He took over Kurt’s spot after The Parade 😁
and all 3 times I’ve met Kyle He was cool AF with Me
I met Kyle at the Bull Ring out here in Vegas before He started driving The HMS Kellogg’s #5
He was cool then and I’ve been Up with Kyle ever since
I couldn’t understand the hate He got and even still gets a little bit
He’s so darn Good
But I didn’t get it with Kurt until I experienced it in person the smug attitude He had , so ….
Kyle on the other hand has not ever acted like that with My personal experiences
He’s got a lot more Vegas Boi in Him than His Brother does
I think Kyle got some hate just from Kurt , people passed judgment
Then Kyle started doing the corny thing of mocking the crowd with the eye crying gestures
I’m not a real fan of that look even though it is kind of funny because there are actual cry babies out there In the stands a lot of times & especially towards Him
People don’t realize Kyle is 10 years younger than Harvick and has a few more Wins
Kyle is going to be considered 1 of Thee Very Best when He’s done even His haters can’t deny it.
Hopefully Kyle gets 2 more Championships 🏆🏆 & 55 more 🏁
Well Done Herminator
You really showed Kurt a lot of Love & Respect Due
Salute 🫡 My Brother
Respect Due You Good Sir 🙏
Love to see Kyle take the RCR 8 to another 🏆
They had a nice 1st season 👍
Dale Jr. should comeback for 2 seasons & drive that 3
That’d Light The Sport on 🔥
Those 2 in the 3 & 8 as teammates & for RCR
FUGGEDABOUDIT
That’d be the Jolt that NASCAR can use to help jumpstart the return of more & more fans
People are slowly coming back
But during the later 2k’s & 2010’s NASCAR was more worried about South of The Border
& not The South
They wanted all the other fans they didn’t have and stoped giving a what about the real US Southern Boys that made the sport
Wanted to be like Formula 1 and still get the Necks $
No Sir… No Your Place & Better Recognize what Makes NASCAR Racing So Great
Why people like Me were really initially drawn to it and Why I Love it Most
& that’s The Moonshiners
The Bad Asses that Go Racin
The Southern US of A
& You don’t have to be from The South to have at least some of that in your soul
You can grow up around it even in Vegas . Believe Me.
That’s what makes NASCAR so unique
So stop worrying about everyone else and worry about The Red Blooded Americans that made/ make NASCAR
Stop trying to be something You’re not .
Get some Good $ & forget who You really are
I get it. We all mess up
and $ can go to our heads
But continue to regroup and get back to The Roots .
The Roots of America
The Roots of Racin
😇
Throw all of these grafics at me, solve it.
Kenny ask them to define.
