@@epic9256 dale jr. Won 26 races, and was competitive in the points for many years, while trevor bayne only has 1 win, 5 top 5's, and 16 top 10's in 9 years
imo I believe Trevor would've been better just staying in Xfinity. Some people can have great in that series. And, he's shown he is competitive in that series.
Matt Kenseth hasn't been doing much better than Trevor in the 6 car this year, and he's a veteran! Roush is the real problem in my opinion as their equipment has just gone downhill from the championship-contending team they were ten years ago! I really do not believe the problem is Trevor Bayne being a bust!
@Elite Soulfly delusional bro they changed it because of Gordon not Kenseth. Not Discrediting Matt Hes a hell of a driver and a class act and has done it all absolutely. But they didnt change the points format bc of him.
@@hell-sol5240 They definitely changed it cause of Kenseth. In 2003 with a handful of races left, Kenseth had a 400 point lead in the Winston cup system. Even with a handful of really bad finishes toward the end of the season, he still won by 90 points. They changed it because of Kenseth's dominant season with only 1 win early in the season.
Caiden Wichert it clearly didn’t improve... Stenhouse’s numbers are worse than last year and Newman’s average start is by far the worst it’s ever been in his career.
Clout Chaser Kenseth did better than Trevor he got a stage win and a couple top 10's, Trevor Bayne didn't get any top 10's even at his best tracks. Bayne wasn't any good.
I think Roush Fenway Racing died somewhere either in the 2013 season or the 2014 season. They use to be like Stewart Haas Racing when I was growing up.
That was in like 2007 and 2008. In 2009 and 2010, they died off just a little before hitting a stride come the end of 2010! They were front and center again in 2011 and 2012! 2013 was when they started slipping but still held on! 2014 is when they slipped again but were holding on by the skin of their teeth. Since then, though, their equipment just got to the crappy state that it is today, save for two wins at Daytona and Talladega by Ricky Stenhouse, which are really just flukes!
@@NemechekFan87 it just ruined his career unless he gets a better ride... Bayne is like diburrtio, tired of running 15th every race so if he doesnt get a better ride than he said he is uncertain at jis feature in cup... But theres a chance he might sign with stewart haas racing cuz of sponsorship
Man, he’s a really nice guy to the point I felt sorry for him losing all these races He won in his 2nd Cup start, that made me think that he will be a legend to the sport... Buuut noooo.... Harvick won in his 3rd Cup start, so I thought Trevor Bayne might win a championship like Harvick did
If you recall, Jamie McMurray also won in his 2nd Cup Series start, and he didn't win a Cup Series championship either. Granted Jamie won more races since then but still, no championship.
I know. He should’ve practiced more in whatever stock car series he was in before the Daytona race he won, but he wouldn’t win that race so yeah. He needs to practice more in the Xfinity series ASAP.
NGPG - ROBLOX & More! But at the same Time Roush Really hasn’t made the Best Cars, but yeah I thought that he had a promising career. Maybe he still does.
Fun fact: My dad used to race go-karts with Trevor at a little track in Knoxville,TN called Dumplin Valley Raceway. At a NASCAR convention Trevor was there for a meet and greet and he pulled me and my dad aside and Trevor and his dad Rocky talked to us for a bit. Super awesome guy.
At first, I was surprised that you’d decided to count Trevor Bayne as a Bust but then the more I thought about it, I realised that he has been quite disappointing over the years but I think we can all agree that we won’t forget Bayne winning at Daytona for quite a while.
I blame the decline of Roush Fenway for most of Trevor’s troubles. Sure Kenseth did better in the car, but he’s freaking Matt Kenseth, a future hall of famer.
Before I would say anything about Bayne, I believe that with the right equipment, Bayne could be a underdog contender. But now for the opinion, not every wreck he has been as been his complete fault, flat tires, areo causing the car to spin and mistakes by other times would put his luck into Casey Atwood territory (like fucking horrendous luck) and ended his days. But I consider him a bust still. If he did better, we wouldn't be, but now he is
I'm doing a speech for Communications class explaining why Michael Annett is the worst driver ever. You're definitely the inspiration for this speech so thank you
@V.V FC10 exactly, what's worse is that his teammates are the top of the standings, he missed the playoffs and at had less points than John Hunter Nemechek going into Watkins Glen
A lot of people say he crashes too much as well, but looking at those crashes, I wold say the majority of them were not his fault, but other tools running in better equipment thinking small teams have a big budget
Here's what wasn't said in the video. Bayne was released from Diamond Waltrip Racing sometime in 2010 and got pick up from Roush later that year. He would run full time in the Nationwide series but would not run completely full time until 2013 due to health and sponsorship problems in his first two seasons for Roush.
You know honestly how nascar is now, you could've never know how good he really is due to him not being in top equipment in cup. Ik good drivers make due with bad equipment and that what makes them good but I really wish nascar would change it up to make it where everyone kinda honestly spent the same and the field was extremely equal. Like honestly I would love it if Joe Gibbs stuff wasn't much better than like Star Coms stuff because that would really show us who is the best.
It's not just spending, it's set up moreso. Having a car that makes the brakes stay just that degree cooler, engine run just a small bit cooler, more refined suspension and steering adjustment will make a major change.
I feel like after his Daytona 500 win, the wood brothers and Roush had too much faith in him too fast. He should have spent 4 full time seasons in the nationwide series from 2011-2014 before taking over the 6 car full time in 2015. If that was the case he would have performed so much better and maybe even got 4 more cups series wins before being let go by the team
To answer the question, unfortunately, yes. Trevor Bayne won the Daytona 500 but never really did much afterwards in Cup. The biggest thing was he got lyme disease and later multiple sclerosis which stunted his growth as a race car driver due to the recovery time and Bayne was unable to put together a solid career after the tick bite, and the downfall of Roush after Kenseth left really hurt Bayne's development. Its hard to say what kind of driver Bayne could have been had he hooked on to a good team like the Toyotas or Furniture Row or had Hendrick engines. I think he could do what Kenseth did at Gibbs or Truex at Furniture Row, he just wasn't in the right spot unlike his Daytona 500 where he did everything right which was simple stay in line and push.
That's a thing a lot of people seem to forget: Trevor spent a very large chunk of time out of the race car shortly after his Daytona 500 win due to medical issues. This no doubt cost him a lot of experience. Add to that rotten luck and shitty equipment and you just sit and wonder "what if..."
I don't know if it's really fair to call Trevor Bayne a bust so much as when he went full-time in Cup, the equipment at Roush just went downhill! Even Matt Kenseth, who replaced Trevor for a few races this year has not been able to get good finishes in the car! His performance is probably not much better than what Trevor has done this year, and he's a seasoned veteran! If anyone is a bust now, it's that whole Roush team!
I met Trevor two times, once was a week before the 2011Daytona 500 and he was the first driver I had ever met. A few years later I met him again. Trevor may suck but he is up there for one of the nicest driver. Corey LaJoie has a great personality and he sucks so I guess nice drivers suck. Even though Alex Bowman is really nice...... can't say the same thing about Kyle Busch.
In 2010 at Bristol before the weekend race we have this event on State Street where all the drivers meet and bring their vehicles/set up and sign autographs. It's a big event every year. Me and my dad raced late models at a local track and local short tracks get a little bit of recognition at these events. Anyway, we set up and this guy shows up with a couple people and mentions he's a driver and would love to have a spot to sign autographs at. We had no idea who he was but said sure! The more the merrier. That guy who needed a spot next to us was Trevor Bayne lol. He was so nice I remember.
Trevor Bayne deserved a better chance than Roush. Ford itself was lacking until Penske switched back to Ford when Dodge left in 2012, but Roush was never competitive after Carl Edwards left. Trevor had made some bad calls pulling up in front of drivers, but setting that aside many wrecks weren't his fault, and I think If he'd raced for any other B level team aka Ganasi, Childress, JTG Daughtry, he might have faired better I'm my opinion
justin dinkins I know but what I am trying to say is that If Bayne was lucky enough to be in better equipment like Hendrick, Stewart-Haas, Gibbs, or Penske He probably would have had a better career
Dude Bayne had a Heath problem that's why he didn't race as much or win no way in fuckin hell was it Bayne' s fault or Roush and Woodbrothers racing there was nothing he could do God damnit I see Trevor Bayne as a guy who even tho was going through ruff times could still make a dream come true and win on one of the hardest ass tracks in Nascar and not only did he do it at Daytona he did it at the Daytona 500. P.S take the video down Edit A year later: Sorry for pass me going insane, I was young, stupid and was a having a tuff time at school, sorry Black Flags Matter
Trevor Bayne is still one of my favorite drivers of all time because he sent me an autograph when my pappaw was in the hospital and his sister in law was his nurse.
I disagree. Trevor is a really good race driver! He just wasn’t on a good team. It sucked seeing him caught up in wrecks majority of the time, but he’s still got the skills or he would’ve never been there. Hell Matt Kenseth didn’t even do well in the car and he’s supposedly one of the best, right? Exactly. Trevor needs a chance with a team that could provide much more
@Black Flags Matter I feel like a lot of people didn't see him as a bust because of Danica crashing when she was racing in cup. Then when she left, I think more people realized how big of a bust Trevor Bayne really was. Heck, I thought he was the "Crash King" after Danica left. Your video proves why Bayne busted out and will probably not race for another top tier cup team again. Also, I think you should make a Danica Bust video if you haven't already. She failed to live up to the hype and I also felt like she got rushed into the cup series/should've stayed in the Xfinity series longer.
Gotta take into consideration though he was crap in Xfinity too, he took over the championship winning car from the previous 2 years of Ricky Stenhouse Jr and 2015 championship winning team of Chris Buescher. Only way he would be in race winning contention is if you put him in JGR equipment.

I am finding a common thread in the “bust” videos. Teams tried to move these guys up to Cup too fast. They needed to stay in Busch, Nationwide, Xfinity, or whatever you call it longer. It’s just too much too soon and too high of a learning curve. Early fluke success and the media frenzy only makes its worse.
@@Trevor42721 He was driving for Hendrick from late 2003 - 2006. You expect him to win a few races a year driving for Hendrick. He only got 1 win at Hendrick and it was a highly controversial one.
@@tylerpuszczewicz2535 true but think this, he won while driving for red bull and also he won in 2013 for MWR while driving part time and i think he had great talent but his blood clots screwed up his career. I think he was like logano at Gibbs. Never felt like home and then when he switched to a different team he won races and scored a lot of poles. I wished he didnt had the blood clots. I think hes a great of what if guys
Wins one race and everyone thinks he Jesus.....I've honestly never liked him because of him being way, way, way too overrated. Awesome video BFM! I know you have been waiting to make this one for a while now
Idk maybe it’s just me but it kinda seems like he was rushed to Cup too early but even then he wasn’t spectacular in xfinity either. Curious to know your guys thoughts are on this one
Derrike is an amazing marketer and businessman, doesn't burn bridges, that's why Mane and Tail and Bojangles came back. Very smart with his money. The Daytona 500 combined with his savvy business sense is why he's lasted so long

i used to be big into nascar but kinda stopped because of the crowd it attracts so i really appreciate the rap instrumentals in the background for some reason😂
Most of the wrecks were not his fault. He was in the wrong place when it happened. Second, blown engines and all that is not his fault either. 3rd, his health also did not helped when he missed some races because of MS.
I worked at Roush during these times. Trever was a hell of a kid. He was having some vision issues towards the end. And Ryan reed brought more money to the table. Plus after jacks last plane crash he lost control of the company. We struggled as a Company hard then and still haven’t recovered.
after his surprise Daytona win; never heard about him again. At least he'll be in the history books forever as a 500 winner, so there's a consolation prize.
I remember watching that Daytona 500 like it was yesterday, and me and my mom, and dad were as giddy as a kid on Christmas morning. But to play devil's advocate, he didn't get the high quality equipment at RFR that he deserved.... What a shame for his last four years at RFR
I didn't think he was that good to begin with at the nationwide/xfinity level or the cup level. The 2011 500 win was in my mind a fluke as he never bothered to try to make his way through the field or anything. On the xfinity/nationwide side of it, if he stayed there for more than 2 years at MWR before Glenn and Lennard Wood picked him up, he would of had enough experience to make the transition I think and maybe be competitive and a race winning contender I think 🤷♂️

2020 NASCAR Stop Motion Series lajoie doesn't suck now
@@jimmiejohnson6737 Ik lol this was back when he was a on BK Racing I think lol
In 2010 at Bristol before the weekend race we have this event on State Street where all the drivers meet and bring their vehicles/set up and sign autographs. It's a big event every year. Me and my dad raced late models at a local track and local short tracks get a little bit of recognition at these events. Anyway, we set up and this guy shows up with a couple people and mentions he's a driver and would love to have a spot to sign autographs at. We had no idea who he was but said sure! The more the merrier. That guy who needed a spot next to us was Trevor Bayne lol. He was so nice I remember.
It’s “nice guys finish last” dude, not “only good guys finish last” lol. Otherwise very good video, was waiting for this one!
to be fair roush isnt the roush of 2003 --2013
thomas payton Ahh those years when Matt Kenseth was still driving the #17 instead of Ricky Stenhouse Jr.
thomas payton Along with Mark Martin in the #6 for at least till 2007? Then it was David Regan and finally Trevor Bayne.
Trevor Bayne - "The greatest one-hit wonder in NASCAR Cup Series history"
Derrike Cope: "That's cute."
To Derrike’s credit, he did win 2 races
Cope won Dover later that year in 1990.
"only good guys finish last"
I'm not POSITIVE, but... is that really how it goes? lmao
Fun Fact: in NASCAR Heat 3, on my championship season, Trevor Bayne somehow won the fall Talladega race.
Trevor Bayne deserved a better chance than Roush. Ford itself was lacking until Penske switched back to Ford when Dodge left in 2012, but Roush was never competitive after Carl Edwards left. Trevor had made some bad calls pulling up in front of drivers, but setting that aside many wrecks weren't his fault, and I think If he'd raced for any other B level team aka Ganasi, Childress, JTG Daughtry, he might have faired better I'm my opinion
You forgot that he was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis.
If Bayne had been in better equipment He would have had a better Cup series career
Yeah it sucks that no one would give him a good ride
Yeah it does suck
At the time, he wasn’t going anywhere. Wood Brothers was his peak. He couldn’t go anywhere that had good equipment after 2014.
justin dinkins I know but what I am trying to say is that If Bayne was lucky enough to be in better equipment like Hendrick, Stewart-Haas, Gibbs, or Penske He probably would have had a better career
Dude Bayne had a Heath problem that's why he didn't race as much or win no way in fuckin hell was it Bayne' s fault or Roush and Woodbrothers racing there was nothing he could do God damnit I see Trevor Bayne as a guy who even tho was going through ruff times could still make a dream come true and win on one of the hardest ass tracks in Nascar and not only did he do it at Daytona he did it at the Daytona 500. P.S take the video down
Edit A year later: Sorry for pass me going insane, I was young, stupid and was a having a tuff time at school, sorry Black Flags Matter
His 500 wasn’t luck, he was fastest the entire weekend by a lot.
Who’s here after his new ride with Gibbs?
Trevor Bayne is still one of my favorite drivers of all time because he sent me an autograph when my pappaw was in the hospital and his sister in law was his nurse.
I wasn't expecting a bust video on Trevor Bayne anytime soon
I disagree. Trevor is a really good race driver! He just wasn’t on a good team. It sucked seeing him caught up in wrecks majority of the time, but he’s still got the skills or he would’ve never been there. Hell Matt Kenseth didn’t even do well in the car and he’s supposedly one of the best, right? Exactly. Trevor needs a chance with a team that could provide much more
Anyone get this after Bayne’s return to Xfinity?
@Black Flags Matter I feel like a lot of people didn't see him as a bust because of Danica crashing when she was racing in cup. Then when she left, I think more people realized how big of a bust Trevor Bayne really was. Heck, I thought he was the "Crash King" after Danica left. Your video proves why Bayne busted out and will probably not race for another top tier cup team again.
Also, I think you should make a Danica Bust video if you haven't already. She failed to live up to the hype and I also felt like she got rushed into the cup series/should've stayed in the Xfinity series longer.
just one thing you forgot to mention the man is dealing with MS , you could not drive a stock car half as good as he could and him
Trevor Bayne is the epitome of someone who peaked too soon
Daytona 500 in his 2nd start fucking hell haha
Trevor bayne is talented, problem is he is racing for roush
And was racing part time with the woods
The Random TH-cam Channel95 true
@@Trevor42721 and that was before they had a Penske alliance
So they weren't great
@@caleykruse9852 even when bayne was racing for WBR i think they had a Roush alliance lol
Gotta take into consideration though he was crap in Xfinity too, he took over the championship winning car from the previous 2 years of Ricky Stenhouse Jr and 2015 championship winning team of Chris Buescher. Only way he would be in race winning contention is if you put him in JGR equipment.
I think this year someone should give him an xfinity ride i bet he would be pretty good
Well...
@@_TheMad0ne_ I knew it all along
This is so good! Great job! Can't wait for more!
At least Ryan Newman is making the 6 car competitive which is a good sign

I am finding a common thread in the “bust” videos. Teams tried to move these guys up to Cup too fast. They needed to stay in Busch, Nationwide, Xfinity, or whatever you call it longer. It’s just too much too soon and too high of a learning curve. Early fluke success and the media frenzy only makes its worse.

@@Trevor42721 He was driving for Hendrick from late 2003 - 2006. You expect him to win a few races a year driving for Hendrick. He only got 1 win at Hendrick and it was a highly controversial one.
@@tylerpuszczewicz2535 true but think this, he won while driving for red bull and also he won in 2013 for MWR while driving part time and i think he had great talent but his blood clots screwed up his career. I think he was like logano at Gibbs. Never felt like home and then when he switched to a different team he won races and scored a lot of poles. I wished he didnt had the blood clots. I think hes a great of what if guys
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TREVOR BAYNE!
20 YEARS OLD!
Man won the Daytona 500 in his second start, on his birthday
He's probably the most accomplished "bust" in NASCAR
Love your videos dude keep up the work!
Ryan Newman got this car in the chase in 2019. Let that sink in.
Wins one race and everyone thinks he Jesus.....I've honestly never liked him because of him being way, way, way too overrated. Awesome video BFM! I know you have been waiting to make this one for a while now
Running's Racing exactly. Winning Daytona that early was the best and worst thing to happen to him
Trevor Bustpain. Great video btw. I LOVE your channel. Can't wait for more videos.
Trevor Bane: *EXISTS*
Every other NASCAR driver: Free target practice
Idk maybe it’s just me but it kinda seems like he was rushed to Cup too early but even then he wasn’t spectacular in xfinity either. Curious to know your guys thoughts are on this one
"Cant ride the coattails of his Daytona 500 win." Then whats Derrick Cope doing?
Derrike is an amazing marketer and businessman, doesn't burn bridges, that's why Mane and Tail and Bojangles came back. Very smart with his money. The Daytona 500 combined with his savvy business sense is why he's lasted so long
He won at Dover later that year so what are you talking about
6:25-6:38 JUST PUT TIRES ON IT GUYS!

*Tire blows out, catches the oil lines, entire car bursts into flames. Trevor climbs out of the car*
JUST PUT TIRES ON IT GUYS! PUT TIRES ON IT!
J cole background music nice
He has MS. That really affects his driving ability.
My mom has MS, so I can attest that is a true fact.
I agree. That was never pointed out in this video.
The best win that Trevor Bayne ever got in his Cup Series was the 2011 Daytona 500
Good driver with poor equipment and has also been diagnosed with MS. Bust? I think not.
i used to be big into nascar but kinda stopped because of the crowd it attracts so i really appreciate the rap instrumentals in the background for some reason😂
Most of the wrecks were not his fault. He was in the wrong place when it happened. Second, blown engines and all that is not his fault either. 3rd, his health also did not helped when he missed some races because of MS.
I worked at Roush during these times. Trever was a hell of a kid. He was having some vision issues towards the end. And Ryan reed brought more money to the table. Plus after jacks last plane crash he lost control of the company. We struggled as a
Company hard then and still haven’t recovered.
after his surprise Daytona win; never heard about him again. At least he'll be in the history books forever as a 500 winner, so there's a consolation prize.
I remember watching that Daytona 500 like it was yesterday, and me and my mom, and dad were as giddy as a kid on Christmas morning. But to play devil's advocate, he didn't get the high quality equipment at RFR that he deserved.... What a shame for his last four years at RFR
A 500 win in his second start, and after that is just one big "Oof"
You forgot when he DNQ’d his first race in the #6 car. Qualified 38th purely on speed and was sent packing
I think Bayne will have success in the future.
NASCAR Busts:
- Sam Hornish Jr.
- Juan Pablo Montoya
- Danica Patrick
- Brian Scott
- Reed Sorenson
And David Stremme
Hornish competed for the nationwide championship in 2012
Reed Sorensen wasn’t a bust give me a good reason
@Andrew Anderson I'm going to do a speech for My Communications class explaining why he is the worst driver of all time
Sorenson isnt a bust just a mix of bad equipment he did great in good equipment
Front Row/JTG Daugherty Racing could have won the 2011 Daytona 500, and to be honest I wish one of them did!
That was wholesome when Trevor Bayne was getting a push to victory from his teammates the day after his *birthday*.
love the window pain instrumental
Racing Gods; you can win the Daytona 500, but the rest of your career will be some booty...
Bayne; (aggressively shakes hands) I'll take it.
He may not have been the best driver, but I'll remember him for not only winning the 500, but saving the Wood Brothers from shutting their doors!
I didn't think he was that good to begin with at the nationwide/xfinity level or the cup level. The 2011 500 win was in my mind a fluke as he never bothered to try to make his way through the field or anything. On the xfinity/nationwide side of it, if he stayed there for more than 2 years at MWR before Glenn and Lennard Wood picked him up, he would of had enough experience to make the transition I think and maybe be competitive and a race winning contender I think 🤷♂️
I have a good debate bowman vs Gragson for the 48 who will get the ride?
i love how dw says "good grief" around 8:07
Roush was junk. Would have won Indy if McDowell didn’t mess up. Runs with JGR this year show it was the cars at RFR
Trevor Bayne was proof anyone who qualified at Daytona or Talledega have a shot at winning. After he won I never saw Daytona 500 as the big race
I watched Derick Cope win it when I was a kid and had the same feeling.
