I make this same comment on all of these old races. This has got to be the best announcing team I've ever heard for any sport. Ned Jarrett and Benny Parsons are just perfect for this. Both of them so knowledgeable and so classy. Bob Jenkins is fantastic at keeping the viewer updated to the race but always subordinates himself to the more knowledgeable members. It's a wonderful dynamic they all had

Nothing at all wrong with nostalgia, as long as you don't let it cloud your view of the present. Times change, for the better or worse. I love 1990s and 2000s NASCAR as much as the next fan of that age, but I also still enjoy it, today.@@SwineBrothers

Yes I agree. I don’t understand why Dodge wasn’t in Nascar during the 80’s & 90’s with Dodge/Plymouth dominating back in the 50’s,60’s & 70’s with especially Richard Petty where 191 of his 200 wins were in a dodge or Plymouth.

Yet just a few laps after he rejoined and the field caught him, he and Lake Speed badly held up Rusty Wallace which caused a traffic jam that saw a lot of damage to Rick Mast's Oldsmobile when he spun Ken Schrader. But then, that's Bristol isn't it. There wasn't really anywhere Earnhardt and Speed could go. And technically they were doing the right thing staying low and trying to let everyone else go by on the outside. However, Rusty had decided to try and pass low when in reality he should have gone high which is really what triggered the whole episode. No one was really at fault, its just what happens on a short track with the leaders coming up on slow traffic.

Thanks for the video I worked 7 days a week in 1991 and missed most races that year. Ernie and Davie was under the impression that bump drafting was necessary at Bristol. I'm glad nether won the race. Rusty Wallace was a clean racer and he won that race because he earned it.Those were the good old days for sure.

Legend has it, they're still trying to figure out the running order to this day

Here after the 54 lead changes from Sunday's nutty spring Bristol race. This race was referenced for the previous high of 40 lead changes, and there were a lot of similarities between these two races. Odd (and thankfully short-lived) pitting rules, track surfacing issues, and unpredictable weather. Folks forget that Bristol was having track surface issues in 1990 and 1991, and that ultimately led to the installation of concrete for 1992.

Damn what a finish!

So this was the spring Bristol race in 91. Alan Kulwicki has just secured the Hooters sponsorship on the 7 car and would win the Winston Cup in 92. Immediately before the spring Bristol race in 93 -roughly two years from this broadcast- he would be taken from us. RIP Alan...

I love how old fans complain about the rules nowadays but seemingly ignore the whack stuff NASCAR tried 15+ years ago. And this isn't even the first example of weird pit rules.

@gth804f

They had these pit rules because a guy had just gotten killed in the pits in 1990, and there were a couple of other incidents that same season where pit crew members had gotten badly injured. There was also still no pit road speed limit. NASCAR was still in the process at this time of trying to figure out how to make pit road safer. People bitch about the pit road speeding penalties; apparently they are okay with guys getting hurt and killed in the pits.

What was that yellow light that would come on every once in a while on the Kodak #4 car?

2:39:50 Buffet Benny

Asphalt at Bristol. I was at this race as a teenager. Every change that has been made from concrete to this dirt crap now will never be what it was

Keep uploading the classic NASCAR races; but, please don't do what I think you are going to do by bringing back the stupid odd and even pit rule.

Bristol lost part of it's soul when they closed it in. I loved it when you could see "Thunder Valley"! Sure, now it's "impressive" but it's proven to be too much. If nothing else horseshoe it with about 125k seats. The open end would provide some cool views.....

Love that Pontiac look!

Look at those cars dance around! These in-car camera views are almost scary. Current cars are rock solid compared to this. NASCAR, please continue to upload high-quality retro races, but I don't think they should be in the 2017 Full Race playlist. Perhaps "NASCAR Classic."

Reverse of the fall 1990 finish.

The top ten in the. Starting grid looks like an all star race and that doesn’t include Irvin, Elliot, labonte and others.........truly the heyday of nascar!

Pretty sure they posted this to make a subtle point about "wow everyone bitchin' about rule changes like we havent done them forever" in reference to the even/odd car pitting. However this rule change is understandable as it was in response to safety concerns following the death of a crew member from Bill Elliott's team in 1990, Mike Rich. And this rule change has a minimal impact on competition unless you spin out on pit road, which doesn't happen very often in the first place.

2:14:25 Wow...Davey just dumped DW!

stupid story about this race, I was at my grandfathers watching it, (we didn't have cable) and it was under rain delay and I think Rusty Wallace was down 2 laps and had just made them up and I just figured the race was over and it wouldn't restart, it was literally pouring down rain but they didn't show it in this video. I left and went home, well the next day I pick up the paper and found that Rusty won the race, and I never really knew how he managed to do it but it looks like the stupid pit rules for this race really helped him out once the race got going again

What's the yellow light for flashing on Irvan's dash?

Failed to Qualify: 71-Dave Marcis, 70-JD McDuffie, & 52-Jimmy Means.

The level of mullet on sterlings crew guy is legendary

I'm a Rusty Wallace fan, but boy did he benefit from that late race odd-even restart after the rain. Basically went from 7th to 1st without passing another car simply because he happened to be the first in line of the odd cars and got to go to the restart basically on pole position. Under normal circumstances he would have been 7th (and last) in line on the outside with all the lapped cars on the inside, so essentially he would have been 14th on the restart grid. Instead he lined up in first place and won the race.

1:50:02 now there's a car owner. junior johnson helping the crew get the right side of the car up.

I’m surprised Ernie Irvan didn’t win this race also. He’s done so good since Daytona and not being in any accidents etc. After Darrell Waltrip wanted to kick him out of the league. When he was the one who nearly ended Davy Allison life What a hypocrite.

If there was a Stupid NASCAR rule list . it would include the Odd/Even position pit rule... I'm just glad that... 1. I was a bit young to try to understand that...(Later in life, it's a headache to figure out...) 2. they changed it to just speed limits based on track size (35-55 mph.)

If anyone would say that, they would be considered "crying" or "whining", but since it was Earnhardt, none of the announcers or his fans would say so. If Bobby Allison was still racing at this point, he would have said it. Gotta miss the days when the older guys made fun of Earnhardt, ie: Iron Head, his first nickname.

They cut out the red flag footage in which Darrell & Davey had a confrontation after their on-track contact.
