Kenny Schrader is one of the nicest people in NASCAR history.
Mr. Schrader is a great racer but even a better human being. Thanks for the interview.
Schrader such a humble guy. Kenny Schrader another racing ambassador Great show herm. Keep racing Herm. The sport needs you.
Alot of people don't know this and I myself went back and educated myself but Mr. Schrader was THE Kyle Larson of dirt racing in his day!!

he was one of the first open wheel guys to go to NASCAR and not go to USAC and Indy. Some of the background on Days Of Thunder is based on Cole Trickle being a dirt racer. Which was somewhat based on Schrader's path to NASCAR.

A true racer
Ken Schrader is so badass! He's never going to quit racing or drinking cold ones! Atta boy! Life is good!
I love That Kenny turned Dale Jr into a man that one weekend, Treated him like one of the boys, and kept it quiet from the old man, He is a Legend and top ten of My favorite Motorsport drivers of all time,

That was the funniest , and then most touching interview Dale has ever done. The way Dale told him he was "sorry he had to be the one to see dad, ...but was glad it was him because he knew Kenny would take that delicate information to his grave", ....tore me up!
When you look at these 2 racers and the Vehicles they raced over the years which lacked of modern day safety features. They are both are still racing. Pretty Awesome.
You two are Freakin funny ! - Your kinship really shows - and I also think Schrader is the best ever ! - Gotta be a reason so MANY folks luv this guy ! Thanx Herm
Who doesn't love Kenny Schrader. He has to be the busiest guy in racing. What a great guy. Great interview Herm. My only complaint is the interview wasn't longer 😂. I could have watched for another 2 hours. Need a part 2. I'd like to know how he got started in racing. A detailed history of his racing career.
Glad to hear from Schrader man ,One of My all-time favorite drivers and People ..God Bless Yall!!!!
Kenny is one of if not the most fan friendly driver ever. Have spoken with him several times years back at many sprint car shows.👍🏻Thanks Kenny you as well Hermie
This, right here, is what’s missing in cup racing today. The personalities.

100 % I have no interest in NASCAR any more but love these interviews
i could listen to you two talk all night. Need a part 2
I hope everyone in Nascar watches this. You can get some great advice from Ken! Thank you guys for another awesome video!
I don't want to bring no bad luck, but I think the day Kenny no longer races will be when he no longer breathing ! Love you guys have had the chance to see him in a late model two times one time at Interstate Speedway, and Elkins Speedway but that's been years ago ! Keep slinging dirt Kenny !
Best Kenny Conversation yet!!! I'm not old enough to have remembered Schrader when he was at the top of his game in Cup, but he's one driver I've grown to love as I've followed his journey back to dirt, and subsequently learned of his early career in USAC etc. Helluva racer, and helluva human being. Thanks for putting this up!
Kenny Schader is a national treasure. One of the top personalities of NASCAR in my opinion
One of my all-time favorite race drivers. He would stop by Spider Stultz's Motor Imports store in Collinsville when the Cup drivers were at Martinsville. A true American gentleman who turns left on American dirt! I could listen to Ken Schrader tell racing stories for hours.
My father always called him- Kenny "I'll drive anything for fun and profit" Schrader...lol...always been a huge fan of Kenny and mad respect for him and his accomplishments...also not to forget he's funny as hell also..lol
Love Schrader! I've been a huge Schrader fan since 1988 when he won Talladega. Had the privilege of speaking with him on several occasions in Delaware in my pre-teen years. Also had the privilege of being in the infield in 91 when he won Dover. My dad and I found a hole in the fence so we snuck into victory circle to witness the awesome celebration with our Kodiak gear on! Even though I was only 12 at the time, that is one special day that I will never forget.

Nice 👍
There’s no bigger grassroots racer than Kenny Schrader and never will be.
Love both the Kenny's...
Schrader could teach drivers how to interact with the fans. I had the honor of being his guest twice. I watch him interact with fans of all ages. The one story that sticks in my mind and will always be there is this one. A young fan was just staring at Kenny. Too afraid to approach. Kenny saw this and walked to the kid and started talking to him. That kid has got to be in his 30's now and you know he is a Schrader fan for life.
Kenny is one of the coolest guys on the planet. 67 years old and still playing in the dirt. Awesome show Kenny W.
Who could forget the post race 98 Daytona interview? "Kenny, how are you feeling? I'm ok.... I knew I'd be ok I wore my Kenny Wallace shirt today. 😂😂😂
Wow this is amazing . Schrader is one of my hero’s . You too Kenny . Red farmer , and I’m a 20 year old guy from the south who just loves dirt racing . This made my day . Thanks Kenny and Kenny
Ive always had a lot of respect for Kenny Schrader. Always seemed to be a super clean racer. I have always appreciated the wisdom he has shown at critical moments too. You look at the day that Dale was killed. Kenny could not have handled that situation any more perfectly. Yet, you knew just because his honest heart just couldn't hide the truth. Hard racer and all around great guy!
KENNY AND KENNY JUST BAD ASS AND STILL GOING BAD ASS IN MY BOOK😊❤❤✌
I love both of you guys. Schrader is the real deal. Kenny Wallace you need to come Toledo and run a school bus with Schrader.
I was in Lawrenceburg on Monday, and I about lost my mind when I saw his car sitting in the pits. I've wanted to see him race for several years and it was such a cool surprise to see him. Ran back to the pits to grab a photo with him after the race and he was just as gracious as you would expect. Thanks for coming out to our local tracks and putting on a show for the race fans.
Good ol Schrader. I helped him push his late model on the trailer at Laurens speedway in SC several years ago. Gotta great pic with him to go with it I was star struck lol❤
a lot of wisdom between the two. TY Enjoyed Herm. My stepdads brother worked for red baron (Schwan’s). We got to go to most the southern races and give away pizza. We had an absolute blast tagging along with Kenny and the gang.

Wow man that sounds fun as hell!
I've always liked KS the guy is so real and as far racing KW it's his way of keeping the old man out.👍
Kenny Schrader is a National Treasure!!!🇺🇸
Met Schrader, at a autograph session, back in 90. I sat in line, well into a hour, to meet him, and have a Skoal clock autographed. When I got to the table, he brought me around, behind the table, under the tent, right alongside him. Talked with me, like we were old friends. SUPER nice, down to earth, our kind of guy.
Ou two are awesome. I look up to you both. Kenny Schrader I remember you would come back and go to Eat Right on Hwy 30.
Yall are the "missouri gang"..lol..you guys are so dam awesome..Herman, I watch the flo clip of you at gateway almost everyday to get me fired up for the day..hate coffee so that works 🤣
Schrader is the best, a real racer and true gentleman. You never know where you might find him. 👍
Another great Kenny Conversation. I met Kenny Schrader when he was racing a yellow Ford Granada at the Milwaukee Mile for a USAC stockcar race a long time ago. He was then as he is now a very unassuming guy. It is very interesting to me and may be to others that Dick Trickle is thought so highly by the Kenny's and other drivers. It would be interesting to know why Dick Trickle is thought so highly by his fellow drivers. Maybe this could be explained in a Kenny Conversation.
Just love Kenny Schrader. We need part 2
school bus racin' is wild!! & kenny schrader is one cool dude!
Legends! Schrader is my all time favorite 👍🏻
Lovem both! K Wallace this was one of your better episodes IMHO.
THANK YOU FOR having one of my two fav Nascar drivers please please if you still have access to him tell him Thank you for his book loved it and tell him, and he will laugh, I"M SO SO SORRY that he has had to carry that memory of Dale Sr when he crashed thanks Kenny
Ken Schrader is awesome, sharp as a tack, the ultimate definition of a true, nice and genuine person.
Ken Schrader is a class act. Racing may be better today but the personalities of decades gone by is unmatched. Having heard the term, “racers racer” I think it was mad up for Schrader.
About time you got Kenny on the show
It would be a blast to sit in that garage and drink beer with those two!
You could do whole show on Schrader’s shop! What a cool couple of racers!!
We need to see more of Schrader
I was blessed to have ran my first street stock feature C race at Flatrock speedway and won. 8 cars 8 laps. That was my career. Loved every minute. Still love to watch ARCA at MSI. Great interview with Kenny and yourself.
This conversation with K Schrader opened my eyes on NASCAR. Being from the Ozarks, I have been a Schrader fan since he started driving for Ray Marler! I respect his opinion on NASCAR. Chris Economaki would always make it a point to interview Ken Schrader! Luv K Schrader!
Wow thank you for this episode Kenny two of my Favorites I love both you and Schrader
Inside Nextel cup was my favorite speed tv show mainly because of Ken.
Wish I could see Kenny run dirt again at the Indy mile fairgrounds track,,What a great time
Just love Kenny Schrader. ❤
KS is awesome I’ve always loved watching him race. A true racer👍🏻🏁🇺🇸
Got to see Ken at Lawrenceburg this Past Monday 😎
Proud to be a MO native along with these two guys!

Me too .I saw these two race at Quincy I'll several years ago. They put on my favorite race to date
Love you both so much, and both of you are on my top 16. Schrader is on the pole and Wallace is pole 3.
I've always enjoyed Schrader, Hell of a wheel man.
Another great interview kenny. I've always liked ken schrader,he was one of the most respectful guys on and off the racetrack. And he raced everyone clean. I wished he could've won more races in cup. Just a really nice guy. So thank you Kenny.
Schrader is funny lol tell him we love him then and now
I've always liked Schrader, ever since I was a kid. I coulda watched a whole hour more of this. Loved every minute of it. So much to see in his shop too, definitely gotta go back sometime.
2 of my all time favorites. Thanks Kenny
Hey Wallace! I'm only two minutes into this one... but GREAT INTERVIEW! Schrader is one of the great ones! Gonna love hearing his stories! 😎
I've been waiting patiently for this one. I new it had to be coming. Two of my all time favorite racers and just really neat guys. I really really REALLY enjoyed this one.
Schrader! Man this takes me back. I grew up watching you guys race as I became a race fan in ‘96. Schrader was driving the Budweiser #25 and Kenny was driving the Square D #81. Great times!
I love the good ole days of racing, but I like what's happening now too. Loved seeing Schrader. Loved seeing Dick Trickle on the wall. Great job Kenny & Kenny.
This is so cool. 2 entertaining guys talking about what they love. So good to see Schrader again. 2 guys who will drive anything, even a school bus.
What a Great show. I love Kenny Schrader he was the 1st NASCAR driver I ever met. Was so friendly and autographed 2 cars for me. Kenny Wallace you are awesome, keep up the great shows.
Kenny You could do a whole series on Kenny Schrader :0) I would love to hear you talk about the days when your Brother and Kenny would come down to The Ozark Empire Fairgrounds and race with the great Larry Phillips, Willie Crane, David Goldsberry, and many other drivers. That is part of racing history that goes all the way to the Cup level of racing.
Wow! Sooo awesome! I love the shop tour segment! ❤❤❤
Hot Damn, that one put on smile on me old face !!!
My two favorite Kenny's! Love what you both have done for racing.
Kenny and Kenny. It doesn't get any better than this!!!!!! BTW, Love that he has his own Ice Machine in the shop!
Need more of these episodes and the advertising agrees I just bought blinds watching the figure out the left with the Ken's.
This conversation was just awesome. Thankyou for what you do Kenny
My two favourite Kenny's having an insightful, open, honest and hilarious conversation about my favourite topics. Couldn't ask for more. I was a little kid when Schrader raced in cup. He was not only my favourite driver but his personality has made me a lifelong fan. I loved the show you both did in the early 2000's, Inside the Nextel Cup, and I never missed an episode. I'll never forget the one where Schrader said, That's when I turned the M&Ms car into the W&W car. So funny it still makes me laugh today. The two of you are total legends. As racers, in the racing industry and as awesome people. I could listen to Kenny and Kenny conversation all day.
Two Legend Kenny's in one place. That is alot of legend in one spot. I love you both. The coolest dudes on earth. Have either one of you ever raced at the 1/2 mile dirt track in Hartford Michigan in your lifetime?
U can't get 2 guys more genuine than these 2, met and drank with them both, what u see is what u get!
Mr Schrader is a true gentlemen racer such a humble guy. Kenny Schrader has been my guy since the 80s
I’ve watched nascar for 30 years and I’m almost 38. Yall have always been one of my favorites! Miss the old days of racing! Awesome video brother!
Yeah, school bus racing. It's all about the engine! My wife is all about Schrader. She belonged to the Kenny Schrader Fan Club for many years and was her favorite driver. Thanks Kenny Wallace for having him on the channel. P.S. Back in his NASCAR days we built our Sundays around stock car racing on TV and off to the local dirt track Sunday night. When Joey Logano started running drivers off the track, that was it for me. Now it's common place and won't watch it. I totally relate Schrader racing with Federated Auto Parts. I see the logo on the car, to me it's Kenny. There's an 82 year old former late model dirt racer that is going to start racing a street stock in our area. He said he just missed racing for so long and felt good enough to get back into it. It gets in your blood and never leaves I guess.
Digging that Schrader T-shirt you got on there Kenny Wallace
Good show Hermon, Schrader is and always will be a legend. I have a leather Schrader hat never been warn. M&M's Thanks guts and looked for more shop talk with Kenny.
Love the show Kenny Wallace!! I've been watching since the channel started. I'm about half way through this episode and WOW!! Loving every minute of it. Kenny Schrader is one of the best. He is very open and honest. I'd love to see Kenny Schrader race either in West Fargo, ND or Grand Forks, ND. sometime soon. Saw him a few years back in West Fargo racing. He was easy to talk to after the race.
It’s about time you interviewed ken on your channel I’ve enjoyed watching Kenny race when he was racing for Hendricks boy that was way back 😂
My favorite Kenny Schrader quote after a cup race years ago that he had an engine failure. When the reporter in the pits asked him what happened, he said "Something real important in the motor broke" Classic !
I have something to tell the people about Ken Schrader. One night 30 plus years ago. Kenny pulls in to the little dirt track in Southern Indiana. He had a huge truck and trailer when everyone else had haul trucks and trailers. I remember my dad and his buddies making comments about "Mr.Big Shot or Daddy Warbucks" coming to show the hillbilly how to race. By the time heat races were started everyone who gave him a chance found out he was just a racer. He spoke to everyone about racing. Everyone was an equal. There was not a single stuck yp bone in his body. I know Kenny thought he was just racing but, I know now he was making memories for everyone he met. He was an ambassador for NASCAR and Kenny Schrader. God Bless You Mr.Schrader
School bus figure 8, thanks for mentioning Toledo speedway Schrader! Thanks for the interview Kenny
Thank you Kenny! Always super cool to listen to you and Kenny together.
I had the opportunity to interview Kenny Schrader for a radio show I did years ago at a dirt track just outside of Charlotte. He was the nicest and most accommodating person you could ask for. At the end of the interview he drug Humpy Wheeler into the conversation and the stories started to be told! That was one night I will always remember. Both men were beyond nice to me an my guys. Love the channel KW!!!
Wow thank you KW and Ken Schrader..I say u both are very special for bringing us the excitement we have witnessed with your skills as being real Wheel Men..
Kenny is an awesome guy, I had the honor of meeting him about 25 years ago at a dirt race at Tri City speedway, I had my youngest son with me and we were walking through the pits looking at race rigs and Kenny was in his hauler by himself, he called us over and invited us a sit and he talked to us like we had been friends or neighbors for years, the man knows no strangers, after about a 20 minute chat and tour of his hauler My son was like Dad who was that nice man? a memory we still share to this day.
We used to have a race at the Atlantic City Convention center in NJ. Love Kenny Schrader A racer's racer!
When I was a kid, Kenny Schrader was always my favourite cup driver. Didn’t matter where he was in the field, I was always excited to see him, because he was a dirt midget driver and that was what my dad raced and I grew up with. Absolutely brilliant episode Herman, I could have waited you two chat for another hour episode. Cheers from Australia 🇦🇺🇺🇸
Kate and I love you both! I was a big Gordon fan but would have loved to have a beer with Schrader. Kudos Herman
I enjoyed seeing Kenny run the m&m car all those years.he keeps himself busy with racing 🏎️
Schrader is my all time favorite racer. I spent a lot of time at Highland speedway growing up in late 80’s and it was always extra exciting when he showed up to run!
