This is back when NASCAR was great. Lots of good teams, charismatic drivers, sponsors willing to pay for a good performance, and above all a decent rules package that actually allows good clean hard racing. I miss these days.
Thanks for the upload! Stuck here in the Covid-19 pandemic where all sports are canceled. These races have been absolutely amazing to watch! Miss the old days of NASCAR.
Jeff Gordon sang "Take Me Out to the Ball Game" shortly before the race. Couple that and his suspension failure here and his season started a miserable downward spiral out of the Chase.
Kasey Kahne was very underrated and if it wasn't for health issues at the end of his career and a few other stupid factors he would have a lot more wins.
@@camt7415 eh, this was like a week before school let out for the summer I believe. School for me let out for the summer the Friday before the all-star race. But this was definitely the time of the year where you don't do anything and just screw around...good times.

As a massive Kasey Kahne fan, this was one of the best nights of my life. I turned 11 two days before this, I’ll never forget it!

Binging every race since 1998 so watched Kasey come so close so many times. This win definitely is an iconic moment.

I think he finished outside the top 30 in the next 3 races :(
It was astonishing that he was 2nd in points here and had an unthinkable collapse from that point on.
I was at this race. It was great seeing my driver Kasey Kahne get his 1st cup win.
I met Kasey a few weeks ago while working at CLT Airport as he was flying in from Madison, WI. Super nice guy!
Kasey kahne finally wins a nascar race. Good job #9 kasey kahne. My favorite nascar driver kasey kahne.
I was at that race it was a awesome race I was a tony Stewart fan but seeing kasey first win
The beginning of the nightmares for Jeff Gordon's 2005 Season
i have rewatched this a few times...nascar was nascar
Wouldn’t it be awesome if most of these races were in HD?
Nascars greatest race
Amazing how Richmond speedway has changed. A full house back then.
Can you post some more full races from 2008 in HD
