tried a new video style! thoughts??
@@RawGatorits PERFECT
Morgan & Morgan screwed me when I hired them after I got hit on my motorcycle. They left me with less than 1/3 of the settlement, definitely wouldn’t recommend.
@@appleinfl ouch
@@RawGator Lovin This!
that caution with 10 to go really became dylan lupton’s defining legacy
If I was Carl I'd quit too. That was bs on nascars part. Thare was no need for a yellow they just wanted a show and they got a shit show.
DENNY WOOOOOOOOo
@@robertstone9988yeah, can't blame Carl. It's possibly the worst ever case of a NASCAR phantom debris Caution
i know this story is about JJ...but come on, you gotta feel the heartbreak for carl edwards.i never knew exactly why he left, and this sums it up pretty clearly.a janky championship format, making it to the top 4, running solid, and get screwed cause nascar wanted to play games.what a trip.
Keep in mind that without the Chase/Playoffs, he would be a 2-time Cup Series Champion. (2008 and 2011)
For me what really cements Jimmie Johnson as the possible GOAT of NASCAR is when in 2004 he won the very next race after the Hendrick Motorsports plane crash that claimed the lives of all 10 people onboard. To recover from such tragedy and come close to winning a championship in the face of that, when so many great drivers would have been derailed (for a recent example, see MTJ after Sherry Pollex passed away), cements prime Jimmie Johnson (and Chad Knaus for that matter) as being, for lack of better words, "built different."
Jimmie is not the got not even top5
The goat is Dale Earnhardt period
Blud does not know about Richard petty the real G.O.A.T@@rcguy902
@@rcguy902he may not be the GOAT but he is one of the greats

@Isaac43. nope Earnhardt is try again
He only has 7 due to the playoffs. In a season where every race matters he doesnt...
6:25 this is exactly why we need the chase or full season points back the chase actually had memorable moments instead of the playoff format
If you had all year long points, people going for it wouldn't happen as often.
Its been 20 years, Time for people to let full season points GO.
@@JeremyLeechthese moments are fake and everyone knows it. And the ratings prove this. If you want to give drivers some incentive to not be content with a "top-10" finish at the end of the season, then differentiate finishing positions points wise. Like F1 does, for example. Even a kid, based on unofficial "top-xx"s can create such a system (40th is 1 point for finishing last, 39-31st +1, 30-21st +2, 20-16th +3, 15-11th +4, 10-6th +5, 5th +10, 4th +15, 3rd +20, 2nd +25, 1st +30 which is 190 points for a win). But there is too much meth and coke down South to do this. NASCAR will continue to endlessly moan about sinking ratings and ask themselves "why to do?".
I agree with you, but Carl wouldn't have won that either. Harvick, Logano, and Busch had more points than him.
@@user-rg4sn9by7w every sports tv ratings are down. You can’t blame that on a points system that hasn’t been a full season since before their biggest year. Let the past stay in the past. Adapt
@@JeremyLeech are you high? Playoffs exist in NASCAR since 2014 and the ratings are sinking with Titanic like steadiness. And no major from of motorsport (or any major sport) faced the greatest decline in the 21st century than NASCAR. Hiding your head in the sand won't help it. Attempts at race and championship manipulation don't help either.
Raw Gator is currently taking a break from uploading because of Mental Health and other Personal Reasons.
Did he give a return time?
@@Maxisweird no not yet
I personally want to give Dylan Lupton the biggest bear hug ever. 💙
“This is Jimmie Johnson”
Correct
"These championships aren't like the ones Petty and Earnhardt won. I'd rather go out and win races."
-- Kevin Harvick 2020
Sooooo right! Like don’t get me wrong, I like Jimmie and he’s one of the greatest drivers, but this playoff system doesn’t reward the best driver of the year a championship anymore!
@@Brian5995M And it hasn't since 2004. I mean, I'm not saying it never happens, (it happened in 2005, 2006, 2009, 2012, 2013, 2017, 2019, and 2021) but when it does happen, it's only by chance.
I agree though, this doesn't necessarily warrant hatred towards Jimmie Johnson; the man was just doing his job. You can't blame a guy for doing what he gets paid to do.
@@Brian5995MI mean look at the Mickey champions we got this year…
@@nascarfanatic2425 I would be up for Brad Keselowski pulling off a Terry Labonte next year.
@@GatoradeCupSeriesX94 I know there was Ryan Blaney fans who found Ryan Blaney’s championship run underwhelming.
I never tired of it once.. loved all 83!
I can understand for someone being a huge Jimmie Johnson fan.
Carl got screwed and said enough is enough.
JOHNSON never gets old
Bro pls post more often, or at least please tell me why you don’t post often
hey rawgator how are you doing in life i have been wanting to know as a fan your vids have not been in my bell
@RawGator, when are you gonna upload another video??
fr we have been waiting for so long
I love seeing that you posted a video, always brightens my day
ANOTHER UPLOAD??????? this has to be the best week of my life!
Damn bro you still alive?
Still tragic what happened to Carl here. Very sad this is how he went out.
I never knew Kenseth got eliminated like that. That is one of the WORST moments in NASCAR I have ever seen lmao
Bowman with the late block on the 18 started all that.
we love when you post again
You know its a good week when RawGator uploads TWO videos in the SAME WEEK.
It’s a good day when raw gator uploads
Two uploads in one week? Truly a W moment.
My new idea t shirt by him
Crazy to think about but winning 5 titles in a row does get forgotten. It's possible the popularity of NASCAR took a hit because no one could stop Jimmie, but however you look at it 5 in a row is just an insanely ridiculous feat.
I heard of some people who didn’t watch for a while because of how dominant Jimmie Johnson was.
it's truly not that significant when you realize under the old system that rewards the best year-long performers, Jimmie would have (only, lol) had three titles. Just my two cents.
Yeahhhhh let’s go double uplouds the 🐐
BRO GOT A SPONSOR LETS GOOOO
Thx for talking about my favorite diver
why did he vanish
5 in a row done ✅
2 more for effort done ✅
Legend card done ✅
Great video. You could probably do an entire video on the carl edward situation by itself
I missed the accident because of my cable but it was always my favorite Championship race of this playoff format. Very sad that Carl stepped away from racing and I never saw him on TV ever since.
Because NASCAR threw a pointless caution that bunched up the field eventually leading to Carl Edwards wrecking and screwing him over. I hated that race!
JIMMAY
Jimmie is a legend
jeff should have 7 if he wasn’t robbed from the chase system
This the day broken Carl Edwards heart by nascar phantom caution Tch
This was when Carl Edwards quit racing in the Cup Series too.
This guy is the best nascar storyteller
gator please come back...
DADDY RAWGATOR POSTED WAKE UP
Changed the thumbnail I see…ngl this one is better than the one before
you should rank nascar seasons worst to best
my most favorite driver, along with JG, Earnhardt Jr, and most other memorable drivers
I'm a huge jr fan but my first all-time favorite driver is his dad Nascars greatest ever
We’ll never know but with what we know now about the final four race and nascar being involved near the end… did logano get told to go easy on the next restart? Did nascar want Jimmie to get that 7th and then Blaney pays it forward to logano for his.
The most impressive thing of JJ's 7 championships... is that *ALL OF THEM WERE WITH THE SAME SPONSOR* .
*Lowe's. Sponsored him from his rookie season... **_all the way until the year after his seventh championship._** Seven championships... with the same brand on it...*
Dale Earnhardt had GM Goodwrench as his sponsor for 6 championships. But the first one was with WRANGLER Jeans.
And Richard Petty was sponsored by STP ever since 1972 until the day he retired. But by then he was already a 3-time champion.
But Jimmie had a loyalty so big from his sponsor, that it stayed with them until his ultimate achievement. Worth it? Yes.
The pit crew menber for KB looked destryed, it wasnt his fault it happens like that some times, just hope he didnt beat himself up too much
I love jimmy
Bro you better be working on a REALLY GGO
Can you keep making videos 🎉
2016 was just… I almost wish he retired then.
Carl I couldn’t believe he stepped away and I didn’t blame him either.
2006 he was the kicking post for nascar starting at Daytona and … it never got better.
Joey would get his
Kyle would get his before and after 2016
Larson would do his thing
And Johnson would never be the same driver after Pocono 2017 which ruined him like it ruined Gordon and Kahne… and Sadler but we don’t talk about that as much as we should. Dark cloud and everything for survival I guess.
Anyway…. Great video. I had the 2016 Phoenix front clip of Johnson but decided to sell it simply because he wrecked it up so bad wrecking into Austin Dillion. I DO have a rookie front clip but am having trouble identifying it.
Why is raw gator not posting
I am surely not and never have been a JJ fan, but you cannot deny that this format is repulsively ridiculous. This video proves it.
Rawgator come back☹️
@RawGator your video on nascar drivers ruining their images is age restricted? why?
I want to be like Jimmie when I am older I even live near the city he was born in
hello raw gator
hello mirpheahi
YAY ANOTHER VID AHGSYWYD
Where'd u go
When are you going to upload again?
Everythings great
Dylan Lupton
Hey there
To call it Luck is to me weird. It does not matter what part of the chase or final 4 race you would like to chop it up to luck. It just does not make sense. The only thing that was kinda lucky was the Dylan lupton caution. But even then JJ was still only 3rd of the final 4. The next 2 restarts happens perfectly for JJ and he wins. Not really luck in my opinion. But besides that another great video rawgator
JJ is the GOAT. I know a lot of fans (or anti fans) think he didn't deserved it because the other guys ran up front all day. But think this....JJ started at the back and PASSED...EVERY....CAR....ON....THE....TRACK. He was there when Edwards and Logano took each other out (one of the most stupid things in NASCAR history). And JJ was there near the front on the last two restarts. He didn't cause these cautions, but like any driver, he took advantage.
Jj is not even top 5 he is not the goat Dale Earnhardt is Nascars greatest ever
@@rcguy902 Funny how JJ won more races than Dale, and did so in an era of heavily regulated cars.
@@rcguy902. By the way, JJ did it fewer years, too.
Truth hurts, don’t it?
@@LyleFrancisDelp of course he did in fewer years than Dale the flawed playoff and chase system makes it far easier Jimmie was overrated and nothing compared to Dale Jimmie merely just benefited from a flawed system and cheating crew chief truth hurts doesn't it
@@rcguy902 The chase has no bearing on number of wins. You can make that argument for total championships if you like, but JJ still had to win those races.
Jimmie Johnson is one of the best NASCAR drivers of all time. 83 Career Wins, 7 Championships, and a 2 time Daytona 500 Winner is just a little bit of his legacy, I started watching NASCAR a year before his 7th championship and to see him win it the next year was insane. There will never be a another 7 time champion, there will only be three, Earnhardt, Petty and Johnson the three best NASCAR drivers of all time.
He's bearly even top 10 he benefited from weaker comp a flawed playoff and chase format and cheating crew chief Jimmie may have as many titles as dale but he's not on dales level
most wins came under 10 years (2006-2016)
THATS MY BOI JIMMIE
Wow I’m early 10 seconds ago and first view and like
First comment
@@robloxkid9627thanks
He only got that 7th from a fake points system that only rewards the final race
I get you’re going for a championship but you don’t just block so much to where you get yourself turned 💀💀💀
NASCAR will never recover from this bs
Bro at this just leave TH-cam you have not post in 3 months no TH-cam short no nothing pls just come back or leave if need to take a break understand that but at least let us no you are leaving
5th
Bowman did NOTHING wrong at Phoenix.
First
first
You arent
@alexolpf ok, at least i tried lol. Have a nice day 😊
So undeserved. But it's how NASCAR rewards championship these days. This joke of a playoff system gives birth to fake champions like Logano and Blaney and has robbed so many drivers who rightfully earns the championship. 1 race doesn't define a true champion. Bring back the Winston format please.
The networks would never allow it. The playoffs were NBC's idea to boost end-of-season ratings.
And that's how NASCAR rigged the 2016 championship race!
Rigged implies they had a preferred outcome. They just wanted it to be exciting. If Busch's team hadn't botched the pit stop, he'd have been the one to take advantage instead of Jimmie, and NASCAR wouldn't have cared.
@@seannolan9857 Oh NASCAR definitely preferred Johnson to win over anyone else when he was actively racing full-time lol
NASCAR pushing the limit of what is allowed is Beautiful!!!!!
Fortnite
I forever don't like Joey logano. Brad is right below him only cause he tears up too many cars driving over aggressive.
That’s exactly why 3 or 4 of Jimmie Johnson’s Championships are not respected by hardcore NASCAR fans.
I'm honestly surprised Logano didn't just wreck him right off the restart
Carl wrecked him self. He even said as much after the race. "We both did what we had to do" when asked if he had hard feelings about wht happend. Carl rightfully blames nascar for the wreck calls they threw the phantom yellow so they could get a gwc
Any real nascar fan would know he isn’t really a 7 time champ. They keep changing the point system. It’s a joke era. He wasn’t the only person winning. Plus he had Chad knaus. The 1 to 1.5 mile tracks dominated those eras in which Johnson could win at. No more rockingham or north wilksboro and other tracks. The point system is still a joke and nascar is a joke. Brian France ruined nascar. Daytona and Talladega are fun to watch but you can’t win a race without help. Give back the horsepower, nothing I say will prevent jj from being claimed a 7 time champ. Had nascar not changed the point system Jeff Gordon would be a 7 time champ. Carl Edwards would have won a championship. I think Tony Stewart would have 4. The rise of Jeff Gordon and rival Dale Earnhardt made the sport fun to watch again. After Dale died nascar became a joke.
They kept changing the system to try to stop johnson, and they couldnt. And stop with this nonsense, you are changing the results of the race only by changing its point system. This is completely dumb. Drivers would drive differently if the system were different. Its that simple. Jimmie Johnson is your 7 NASCAR CUP CHAMPION, you like it or not. This nonsense of keeping the results on track and changing the point system is a complete joke to fit your poor, poor argument. Someone already did the math and if nascar had the system that formula one today, jimmie would still have, at least, 6 titles, if you like to change the point system of things... so what? Deal with it.
JIMMIE JOHNSON RUINED NASCAR!!!!!!
