MIKE WALLACE - what a NEAT guy :) !
Finally! Been wondering for 22 years what happened with not getting the Penske ride. Always liked seeing Mike run . Really to me gained a lot of respect when he ran second to Adam Petty at Charlotte.....probably would have been easy to turn the young man but he didnt. Enjoyed the interview very much Mr. Kenny Wallace!!! THANK YOU!!!!
This is the best TH-cam video I’ve seen. I am 53 years old, I found the best tonight 11/22/23.
It’s the best vid! Thanks Herm!
I most remember Mike in the #90 Heilig-Myers car. What always impressed me was how tough he was to pass on the track. He'd race fair but if you wanted to get by him you had to earn it. A very tenacious driver.
love mike wallace he is such an amazing guy.
Life is good for the Wallace family, I never new much about Mike , seems he’s as talented as the others great show 🏁🏁🏁🇺🇸
It's wonderful like all three of your brothers had great talent and your dad and he could make it at racing
Great show Kenny! Great to hear from Mike! Big fan of you guys and the whole Wallace family. Part of my childhood, just a guy from Georgia who enjoys racing over the years. Recently bought some Stacker 2 a few months back and thought of you and the old Stacker 2 commercials 20-22 years ago in the 2000’s and you running the Stacker 2 23 car. Made my childhood memories. God Bless you ,Herm.
Hope you get back on TikTok cause I just found your channel. Thanks for all you do
Oh Kenny awesome hearing from your brother Mike. My heart broke when Mike lost his son. I admire your family so much. Love you guys. Don't stop doing what you do or change.
This was the best interview yet. Listening to Mike speak about losing his son, and how he tries to help those with his own experiences really hit hard. My family and I just had a huge misunderstanding or disagreement occur. Things don't seem that bad now as I definitely needed to hear this. Mike is still helping people just sitting there doing this interview. Thank you Mike and Kenny!
My GOD ķenny I have heard all the Kenny conversations but just heard the one with your brother Mike IT IS THE BEST ONE EVER i was laughing and ì was crying.THANK YOU.
One of my favourite episodes Herman. Mike is an awesome dude. Well done Bud!! Cheers from BC
I just love how Kenny highlights successes with everyone on Kenny Conversations.
I’ll tell Ya, I’m actually a little bit surprised
that this was likely My favorite episode
I haven’t seen em all yet but I’ve seen most of the episodes
This is a great ☝️ 👍
Well done Mike 👏
That was AWESOME, been waiting for this episode also. What a great family.
Another AWESOME "Conversation" Herm! Your brothers are great, but you are more gooder! Lol
Speaking of sponsors, we need another video of how to find a sponsor!
You Rock!
I was at Mikes house in Arnold the day before that tragedy happened. Mike was my dads boss at OK vacuum and he was doing some work on my dads car. I always will have memories of mike racing at Pevely on Saturday nights and riding my bike over to his house on Krueger lane to hang out at the shop. Great guy.
That’s pretty Rad
Other than the sad part
Great interviews Herman. Listening to you interview your brother was awesome.
Great to hear these inside stories.. thank you
That is so awesome to watch and listen to you Kenny ❤️! Listen to you and your brothers is really cool! Being a Nascar fan for a long time it's awesome to just listen to the real conversations. Thank you Kenny.
Wow....i mean Wow ! Kenny, i think this might have been your best interview yet. I am a "middle brother" myself and as a huge racing fan, i have always thought of Mike as "the forgotton" or "overlooked Wallace". An incredible driving talent he was and it's good you brothers all get along today.
Kenny your positive attitude and fun personality is awesome and drew me to your channel. The videos and drivers you interview are awesome. Love hearing from Mike and Rusty.
Really enjoyed these stories from Mike! I could’ve listen to more of it. It’s so amazing to hear what went on behind the scenes back in the day. Keep up the great job Herman and I’m looking forward to more shows like this. 👍
I was/am a fan of all 3 Wallace brothers.
Mike Wallace's daughter was the best female driver in NASCAR I've seen so far...imo
I wish she could've got the right opportunity to drive for a good team, I think she would've been a NASCAR Winner too!
Great show Kenny!
It was a pleasure to watch Mike drive.
I worked on a late model that ran a Lefthander Chassis in the early 90's...lol
Met Mike in Atlanta in the early 90s. Great guy! Orkin was the sponsor on the car.
Kenny, You and both your brothers are great drivers and really good men. Thanks to all of you for all the race memories I have of watching all of you!
Great podcast HERMAN
🤘🏻😎🤘🏻
Awesome stuff Kenny
What a talent behind the wheel. Do believe mike drove the Geico car if I remember right the last time I seen mike race.
Kinda remember the furniture row car too, maybe?
Really enjoyed the conversations with your brothers. Let's see if we can get you three in the tv booth to call a stage at Darlington next year for NBC. I think it would be fantastic!
Herm, great great show with Mike, and Rusty really really enjoyed Mikes show great job keep’em com’in!! Thank You!
Great Episode!
All we need now is Mike interviewing Rusty and the cycle will be complete.
Love you guys!!!
God bless Mike my brother and sis in law lost my middle niece in the womb the week she was to be born Kenny I too had 3 brothers all older
Dale Earnhardt Sr was a totally different animal than everybody else. There's a reason why he became the greatest racecar driver in NASCAR's history. His main focus was winning. Cheating was never a part of his program. He always physically inspected every racecar that he ever drove. Anything not right got corrected or he'd refuse to drive it. I worked at Daytona, Darlington, and Talladega NASCAR tracks 1996-2006 as part of the security/safety teams. I also raced in NASCAR North for many years and did fairly well. IMHO, those were some of the best years of my long life.
I Love The Lake Speed’s , Dick Trickle’s, Ken Schroeder’s , Mike Wallace’s of The Racing World
I love em now more than ever
I actually regret not recognizing just how great they were and what they really mean to racing &
NASCAR Racing in general when I was a kid but that wasn’t presented to Us the way it really should have been , as well as the fact when you’re a kid it’s all about those BiG Names that are always Winning & Running for Championships
But without The Real OG Race Car Drivers that bleed it and will do whatever it takes to race
& they’re need there for those BiG Names to shine
Those type Drivers I named are the Blood of The Sport
Need them to blow a tire or lose some debris at just the right time to keep doing what’s best for NASCAR and thus those BIG NAMES DRIVERS that bring all the $ into The Cup
Thank You and Respect Due to
The Real OG Race Car Drivers
All of You
Yes Kenny The Herminator
That obviously includes You as well , Sir ✌️ 🙏
I've always been a big fan of the "Rich Kid" from St. Louis Mike Wallace! I was so excited when he drove the 12 cup car, I knew he could do it!
I grew up at I44 and speedway USA bolivar watching Larry Phillips
Kenny, I love what you are doing and I would love bringing Rusty and Mike back on together to tell stories from when you guys were just starting out in racing. I would also like to know more about your dad.
I remember two things about Mike. Tougher to pass than Ryan Newman, If Mike rolled up behind you at a Super speedway, you were going to win. Great, real racer.
Whoa ! Mike has a fancy room. Someone is living a nice life 💪
Lots of respect to your family, I hope people realize how tough getting into the top tier of any sport is but NASCAR is tougher because of the huge amount of money you have to find and keep finding! Three brothers from the sticks to make it, well that's Damn impressive I don't care what anyone says,lol
I understand completely what Mike is saying I lost my 2 daughters in a house fire 17 years ago and it's something that changes everything that you feel and think and I'm still recovering today and it's exactly right on about Missouri guys and our toughness keep up the good work Mike and Herman
Mike was kind of "the forgotten Wallace" of NASCAR. Much like Brett was with the Bodine brothers and I often remember that...aside of any other families in NASCAR...your family and the Bodine family are the ONLY TWO to get ALL THREE brothers entered in the same race/show.
I'm GLAD that you clarified...rather your brother did...about what happened to him because I always thought that that bad crash at Daytona in the...if my memory serves me right...the #4 Monster Energy truck that Ricky Carmichael had just lost the ride the year before it.
But I always thought that that crash had made a major impact on Mike.
I laughed pretty hard when he said, "Still got the same mom and same dad."
Typical Wallace humor.
Not to goad you along Herman, but you really DO need to get Geoff; Brett and "the Onion." on your program too!!!
ESPECIALLY Geoff because he got into a "...different form of racing." altogether after NASCAR and not everybody knows what it was or how it came about so HIS story would be FASCINATING!!!!!
Heading out to photograph a Clint Black show tonight.
I'll have to catch this one on the Replay.
Nothing better than a brother interviewing a brother.
🙏's & 🏁's to all.
nice Mark, enjoy the show, thx!
Kenny, another great interview with one of your brothers. Is mom next? :) I think Mike's saying needs to be on a t-shirt.
sorry herm now mike is my favorite wallace boy
Mike best drit around for ever when Trac puts bounty on you that's saying somthang
I was wondering about Mike when you were talking to Rusty.
Mike is one of my favorite drivers from the cup series back in the day. I remember when you and your brother Mike trying to qualify for the 2007 Daytona 500 at the Gatorade Duels 150s. I remember when Mike finished 4th in the Daytona 500 that year. I also remember him from the Nationwide Series driving the GEICO car. I also remember him driving for Kevin Buckler in the 2009 Gatorade Duels and for Bob and Brian Keselowski the red #92 car the year after. Mike did it all and he was a real good driver. You, Chrissy, Mike and Rusty are all a good racing family. Quick Question, about the Gatorade Duels 150’s in 2007 what was it like racing with guys like Bill Elliott, Ward Burton, Michael Waltrip, Dale Jarrett & Former Rookie of the Year James Hylton and seeing Mike qualify for the Daytona 500 that year?
I met Mike at Martinsville Speedway, He was very decent to take the time to talk to me and signed an autograph for me
Mike was a great driver and if he would have consistently been with a top tier team he would have put up winning numbers 👌👍👍👍🙌🏁🏁🏁🏁
Yeah Penske closed the 12 team at the end of 2001 but brought it back in 2002 with Ryan Newman.
cool!
GREAT VIDEO.😍
I laughed my a$$ off at the Earnhardt spin story 😂
This is ironic because just Sunday I was thinking "I see Kenny and Rusty all the time but I wonder what Mike is up to" ..... Guess now I'll find out
Mr.Kenny Wallace , I was an still am a huge Rusty fan and a huge Wallace family Racing fan
How about getting your brothers together at one time to interview you on your show?
Great show but alot of questions i have that are unanswered. Mike should have taken the ride at RCR. Drove the wheels off the 12 car and was shining with good equipment. Its a story of almost and what could have been.
The 43 in 2003 instead of fittipaldi would have been a good fit for mike.
Awesome 54:24
Mike was a great race car driver
Not just but great rusty was great but i think mike was better in my opinion that's why mike lost the 12 ride !!!!
Was it Mikey or Kenny that tried to challenge Old Dale?
Get road course racers boris said and ron fellows on there.
Not too many people get the follow there
dreams and make it
I hear Mike is the 3rd best Wallace driver, coming behind Rusty and Bubba, but better than Kenny. :)
@AndyFromBeaverton, William Darrell Wallace Jr is a very different family. No relation to Kenny, Rusty, and Mike.
@@sergeantmasson3669 He is the brother of another mother.
I was at Dover when Mike won his first race in 94 i believe it was
