I loved IROC, take all the champs from the series and pit them all against each other in equal cars, and ol' Earnhardt seemed like he just rose to the occasion in these types of races.
Field nowadays: Nascar Cup Series: Dale Jr, Jimmie Johnson, Kyle Busch, Brad Keselowski, Kevin Harvick, Tony Stewart Nationwide Series: Ricky Stenhouse Jr, Austin Dillon Truck Series: Ron Hornaday, Todd Bodine Indy Car: Dario Franchitti, Will Power, Scott Dixon F1: Sebastian Vettel, Fernando Alonso, Lewis Hamilton, Kimi Raikkonen Sprint Car: Steve Kinser Rally: Travis Pastrana, Ken Block
I was a big time GM (Greg Moore) fan. The guy had so much talent. Was a better driver than Helio Castronevas, Ryan Hunter Reay, and Will Power of those drivers we have today. Not saying their bad by no means. But, Greg was in a league of his own, especially on ovals.
Oh mannnn. Thank you so much for uploading this!!!! I was 8 years old, and I went to these races all the time cause I live in Daytona!!! They were and still are my favorite races. And now I'm working at the track and miss these days....
It would most likely have proved impossible due to various schedules, but I'd have loved an ultimate IROC series where the Formula One, World Rally, NASCAR, CART, IRL etc champions had competed in one race at each series' discipline ie. at a NASCAR race, a WRC event, a Fomula One championship round, a CART street circuit and so on in appropriately modified cars. Then we'd have seen who was the "champion of champions" over all types of four wheel motor sport.
Close, but I'd set the field like this to get 12 cars. NASCAR Top-3 plus most recent past champ plus highest driver rating--> Keselowski, Bowyer, Johnson, Stewart, Kenseth (alternates Kahne, Biffle, Hamlin) Indycar Top-3--> Ryan Hunter-Reay, Will Power, Scott Dixon (alternates Franchitti, Castroneves) 1 USAC National Champ --> Bryan Clauson 1 WoO Champion --> Donny Schatz 1 NNS Champion--> Ricky Stenhouse (alternate Dillon) 1 NCWTS Champion--> James Beuscher
It’s crazy to think that by the end of the decade, Brian Clauson would be dead, Kenseth, Kahne, Biffle, and (soon) Johnson would be retired, Australia was burning and we would have a major pandemic.
Pontiac Firebirds. I wonder if they had spotters? Really wish they would bring IROC back, loved watching these races as a kid, classic Intimidator move for the win!
When you weigh the same as Danica Patrick, then your car is faster and you don't have to bump anyone. How did that clean driving work out for Mark in Cup racing???............................ That's what I thought. STFU !!!!!
this is awesome, we really had it good in the 90s
True about Greg Moore. The post race interview is really when I remember why I liked Earnhardt. Great race.
oh IROC how i wish you would return to us race fans
They can't due to lack of sponsor
your wish has now been granted :)
@@BlueJimmie48Fan Hopefully the cars have that nice sound to them again :)
BP DW and Bob in the booth
Great announce team
I own the car that won this race:) Car #19 IROC Race car.
Man these cars were beautiful especially on the Superspeedways i hope one day Tony and Everham bring the SRX to the Superspeedways

Totally agree it would really be a good watch.
thanks for loading this race.
Earnhardt the greatest ever. Especially at Daytona and Talladega.
I would like to IROC come back
Can't due to lack of sponsor
Well theres the SRX thats kinda similar
This was amazing to me at the time i waited a long time for this, I got to see Dale Dale jr and greg moore race.
I miss you so much IROC
First IROC race with Bob Jenkins
Best racing series ever
Bring back iroc and late 90s early 2000s nascar
Benny called the firstvwreck LATE, as usual, he always did. Always had to correct himself
I can’t believe I didn’t see a single comment about BP and DW in a booth together on ESPN lol that’s different
I miss IROC and I miss Speedworld

Wicked Witch of the South. She absolutely DISGUSTS me!!!!!!
Dont upload these anymore it makes me miss iroc way to much!!!! Haha, just kidding man great job keep it coming!
Dale Made it look Ez.
He just saw the wind
Starting Grid at 2:23
Weird seeing DW and BP working together
i wouldn't put Hornaday in unless i wanted to guarantee a caution. same for bodine. otherwise its a solid field.
saying that and horniday is a how many time truck champion?
Are those some kind of Camaro or Trans Am ?
Pontiac Firebirds. I wonder if they had spotters? Really wish they would bring IROC back, loved watching these races as a kid, classic Intimidator move for the win!
nope no spotters. yes I wish they would to but doubt it will ever come back
Your right, no sponsor, the ecomy is bad
Dale Jr is a 2 time Busch champion, so yeah why not? makes sense to me, and i don't even really like him.
Mark Martin won most championship. Case closed.
And never bumped anyone out of the way to win a race or championship.

Fernandez?!?!...OKAY. :P

Block is crap at rally, lets be honest.
