Yes I am the 74x crew chief and best friend. We knew we weren't going to make it in the big race but went to make laps and have. My son Jonathan Warnicke 13x did start 9th and made it in to big race on points in 602 late mode. We are so proud of thought theml
You guys did great even if you didn't make the show not to many people can say that they ran at Bristol. A lot of the fun has been taken out of racing with all of the bottomless pockets and the fancy rigs. Keep having fun
I know how he feels racing isn't cheap but I showed up for over 30 yrs and still showing up I've won point trophys being in top 12 but some nights the car counts are not high but I kept showing up everyweek still living a child hood dream having fun Rodney
Love the dirt racing. Guys out there banging on each other having fun. Not getting rich but loving it all the while. My father drover dirt for 25 years and I miss the track. The dust, smell of oil, rubber, and greasy French fries with vinegar.
Yep, me too. You may enjoy on TH-cam a visit to St Thomas Speedway St Thomas PA. It’s where I went as a kid in the 50’s to watch the jalopies. You can still see the outline of the track on Google earth. A few pics of the early days can be searched out also. Very entertaining. My boy was Clem Lemaster out of WV and a brother of one of my friends also competed. $1 admission and .15(?) cent fries as I recall. Had my dad not died at 50yo, I’d have had a car as he owned a body shop and my brother did exhaust systems. Ah yeah, good times, memories.
this is awesome...looks like a major success. some of the hardest racing you will ever see by the best in the country....these cars represent the local Saturday night dirt tracks in the U.S..i hope to see more of Bristol dirt racing in the future and make a point to actually attend.
Thanks for posting this video it's good to see the street stocks running great show that they have put on and to be able to go to a national event that's the dream of a life time
Thanks for posting this race grass Roots racing at its best side by side racing at its best of people who build the cars in the garage kept a smile on my face the whole time
the pretty boys are coming though..... cant wait to see them on this track!! plus, you have to remember that all the nascar drivers started out racing just like these guys. they were real people doing real racing as well, they just got so good that they moved up to the big leagues!
@RL CL You probably have no clue but Flair is the only world champ do not have a gimmick he is the least fake wrestler in history. NASCAR is a terrible product nowdays.
@@timrobertson299 absolutely people like him are who help keep the sport alive, sure winning is nice but as long as his cars on the track his smile is ear to ear.
8:42 Is this how they restart the Cars. 1st place gets his own Row alone followed by 2nd and 3rd side by side in Row 2? 11:07 1st and 2nd are side by side in Row 1.
Hard for me to see these cars getting torn up. I remember, back in the day, after a bad weekend of racing, our first thought was, "Where are we going to get the money?" Cup drivers don't have that problem.
Looking so forward to this weekend and seeing the cup cars on dirt for the first time in 70 years as it'll be my first time seeing him on dirt at Bristol I hope there sure is many many more to come and hey let's get this series televised we need more dirt less pavement less drama less corporate b******* let's get back down to the grassroots racing where it all started from and where it was so much more fun
These are far better to watch than those 'Late Model' shiitters. Most are not standing on the r/f with the l/r steering the car. While they may be fast they look dreadfull. Problem is these are body styles of cars 40 y/o,, these days collectable cars. They should be using more current styles of cars, eg Camaros Mustangs and Chargers or Challengers
My guess he was severely underpowered compared to the others, probably a competitive car at his local track , its pretty obvious he was running out of his class, but I have to give the guy credit. He lived out a dream, and unlike so many who started the race He did finish,
@@timrobertson299 yep, his home track might have tighter rules package on motors etc, or he is just budget racing doing the best he can with limited cash.

Top work fella! What body, chassis is the 74x?
Y’all are the true American dream! Keep digging and make Americans proud!
You guys did great even if you didn't make the show not to many people can say that they ran at Bristol. A lot of the fun has been taken out of racing with all of the bottomless pockets and the fancy rigs. Keep having fun
Excellent job out there, makes me wanna go to more dirt races this year!
1984 cutlass
Wish these classes would get national television time
Either that or more youtube exposure
Way Better than these cry baby nascar drivers
About as close as u can get to Old school babeeeeee.
True Grit.......
I love the thumbnail. I was cheering for that 74x every time I saw him. Just living the dream, who cares if you’re super competitive.
He/She gets a nice participating ribbon
74 car is my hero !! Out there having fun and living the dream !!
Not many people can say I got to run Bristol!!
I know how he feels racing isn't cheap but I showed up for over 30 yrs and still showing up I've won point trophys being in top 12 but some nights the car counts are not high but I kept showing up everyweek still living a child hood dream having fun
Rodney
I wish media would focus more on this, living your dream having fun
All it takes, is Sponsors. "Moist Boi Exspress" sounds like a potential Sponsor and a place, where one might use a Soon, Sir, potentially.
@@ihavefallenandicantreachmy2113 love the name!🔥 And I have some crypto profits maybe I will put moist Boy Express across his hood 😁

GRASSROOTS RACING...at its best. I LOVED it . AWESOME camera work, CKELLEY304, you're my hero
llt looks to me like the street stocks were the most competitive racing of the whole week!
Every track I go to the Street stocks put on the best racing.
Was way better then our track.... we has 3 yellows before we could get one lap.... same car
My favorite class to drive and watch.
True stock car racing. This is what PASCAR needs to go back to.
Thanks for posting this video it's good to see the street stocks running great show that they have put on and to be able to go to a national event that's the dream of a life time
It's the only SC racing I can watch. Got hooked!
I was surprised to see the close up of my car 147! Go mopar!
Cool to see 81 Speedway local AJ Finch running in these in that super slick F0.
Great job covering the race! Amazing Racing!!
Awesome! Thanks for making this video! And thank you editing out the yellow flag laps!
Nick Stoop 74X, You're a legend! G'day from Western Australia!
Thanks for posting this race grass Roots racing at its best side by side racing at its best of people who build the cars in the garage kept a smile on my face the whole time
This is the best thing NASCAR in 20 years. Can’t wait till Sunday.👍😜😝😃🤪
Real racing by real people. Not these pretty boy plastic nascar drivers.
the pretty boys are coming though..... cant wait to see them on this track!! plus, you have to remember that all the nascar drivers started out racing just like these guys. they were real people doing real racing as well, they just got so good that they moved up to the big leagues!

74X proof that you can be a winner even in the back of the pack, your only the loser if you don't try, and He did live out a dream.
Fun fact bullet chassis outa ogden Illinois is hooking him up with a brand new chassis
@@brandonkeller2115 that’s awesome. Hope he has great luck with it and gets even more help. Guys like that deserve a good break.
@@timrobertson299 absolutely people like him are who help keep the sport alive, sure winning is nice but as long as his cars on the track his smile is ear to ear.
Street Stock boys always deliver the best race
Love the look of the 74x. What a cool car
For the stock series these guys are fast most have had a lot of fresh motors for this weekend what a great race.
Always great racing from the stock car class. It sounds like one of the announcers from Lucas Oil speedway.
I don’t know but I race there a lot and he sounds just like him 😂
8:42 Is this how they restart the Cars. 1st place gets his own Row alone followed by 2nd and 3rd side by side in Row 2?
11:07 1st and 2nd are side by side in Row 1.

I remember, back in the day, after a bad weekend of racing, our first thought was,
"Where are we going to get the money?"
Cup drivers don't have that problem.
74x was awesome in my book just showing up makes you a winner
They should keep the dirt on there permanently, it makes for better racing.
It's nice to see a hometown racer at Bristol. Maybe next time I tag along.
this is real racing
That 74X became a legend.
What kinda of camera are you using,great video...
I would love to show up there to race it wouldn't bother me where I finished
How many people were at this race ?
Nice video. Would have loved to have been there to see that myself.
Looking so forward to this weekend and seeing the cup cars on dirt for the first time in 70 years as it'll be my first time seeing him on dirt at Bristol I hope there sure is many many more to come and hey let's get this series televised we need more dirt less pavement less drama less corporate b******* let's get back down to the grassroots racing where it all started from and where it was so much more fun
Thanks for posting. Hopefully, asscar can put on just as good of a show there.
Grocery getters is always the best racing. 😎
movin g up without passing anyone
These used to be called late models in the late 1970s and early 1980s.
No they were called pro stock late models always had homemade wedge bodies
That man deserves some sponsors.......
ice breaker at Thompson can't wait wooo hooo
What are the requirements to be able to race in this class at Bristol?
Can't just be show up and you're in, is it?
These are far better to watch than those 'Late Model' shiitters. Most are not standing on the r/f with the l/r steering the car. While they may be fast they look dreadfull.
Problem is these are body styles of cars 40 y/o,, these days collectable cars.
They should be using more current styles of cars, eg Camaros Mustangs and Chargers or Challengers
What size is that track? Good racing!
Half Mile.
good video
Very cool!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great Video, Thank You!
Only one camera!?
Pretty poor coverage.
you’re right man i shoulda held two cameras at the same time
@@CKelley304 Oh, sorry man, thought it was filmed by T.V. Company.
I'll eat my words now.
I'm just here for the SR.
Dang that looks fun
This racing would be great if they’d clean all the dirt off the race track
nascar needs one super speedway in dirt. A mile and a half would be cool.
Why would anyone give this a thumbs down? Smh
Wow its just nothing but a green screen with audio wtf
Looks fun
he was out cubic dollard. wasnt his heart or skill... dude rocked...
The turns are almost asphalt.
thats rubber...thats only reason they are running these scrubs...to get some some rubber worked in
I thought street stock and hornets where the best all week
Lot of side by side racing
I just don’t understand why they wanna stick cup cars on there but whatever
Great racing and NO Toyotas!!!!!!!!!!
Real stock cars not the pos cookie cutter NASCAR's we going to see Sunday who are real race car drivers
First year was amazing last year sucked
He got paid
nascar pay attention
Is he down on h.p. that much or is he letting off too much? It sounds good but ain't going anywhere. 🤷
My guess he was severely underpowered compared to the others, probably a competitive car at his local track , its pretty obvious he was running out of his class, but I have to give the guy credit. He lived out a dream, and unlike so many who started the race He did finish,
@@timrobertson299 yep, his home track might have tighter rules package on motors etc, or he is just budget racing doing the best he can with limited cash.
Bet he had a blast tho im jealous lol
Nick is a good guy he runs modified street at corinth mississippi basic suspension 16 lbs of vacuum I think .
welp. its mostly pavement after a week lol
