No, there are only a select number of seats in NASCAR. Unfortunately, some of the best wheelmen never get a chance because they don’t have name recognition.

Doesn’t matter how little talent you have as long as you’re connected to someone who can supply sponsorships.

He's a good dude , never cusses , donates a shit ton of money to wounded soldiers and PTSD soldiers. I was able to work with him designing a building for him and a few other guys in Utah for when they are here and he's genuinely a really good guy. Saying he's got an ego is just rediculous. He's one of motorsports greatest legends but it's not given him an ounce of ego. If you'd ever met him you'd retract that but there's a lot of haters out there because of all he's accomplished. NASCARs a joke anyway , I think world champion in WRC and rallycross says so much more about his ability that driving in circles. Not to mention his Motorcross and x-games career.

I respect him for walking from NASCAR and not wrecking more cars from blown tires or wrong place wrong time accidents. Rewatch this, most of these are blowouts or getting caught up in accidents ahead of him or even some shady drivers wrecking him out. I counted 3 of those alone. NASCAR drivers didn't like that he bought his way into the sport but hell, he used his own money and a lot of it to get started so why not? If you're a multi multi millionaire and a Motorsport legend and want to try a sport ,..why not? A lot of bad wrap from people and not sure why. He's a really good dude and doesn't deserve it. He never blamed others or cried about it like Danica ,..so why trash him because he left after a year. It's respectable.

I respect Travis so much for how honest he was and taking responsibility for his spins and shortcomings. I watched an interview that wasn’t mentioned in this video that said he stopped racing because he’d have to devote all his time to getting better, which he didn’t wanna do. In other motorsports like supercross or rally, if you need to find some speed you just use your balls. NASCAR doesn’t work like that. Could have been great if he devoted more time and resources into it but I love the guy regardless.

Driving on gravel fast does require talent, but it also requires a very different kind of driving style from oval racing. Big balls are a necessity but if you want to be the fastest on gravel, you have to know to read the surface and how to use the weight balance of the car to maximize traction.

Problem is many people outside of Nascar don't have a clue how hard it is. Most think it's easy and 90% of the tracks it's just turning left. There's no respect for the skill it takes to do it from those same people also. Guys that did well in IndyCar didn't have much success in nascar either. Just because you drive other types of car fast with success doesn't mean it will transfer over to Nascar. Nascar is much harder because of the weight, tire size, etc over something like IndyCar. Last the guys that finish mostly at the back every week are really good drivers. The experience and skill required just to stay running in Nascar most will just never understand.

Most top-10s by a female driver. 1 of only 14 drivers to lead a lap in both the Daytona 500 and Indy 500. First woman to win the pole for the Daytona 500. Most Cup Series starts by a woman. That's all aside from her IndyCar accomplishments, where she was the most successful female driver in its history.

Wouldn't change a thing. Some people just do not have the talent for certain types of racing. From what I saw of Pastrana on the track, it was plain that Paved Oval racing in bulky cars was never going to work for him.

He’s baaaaack

One of the nicest guys and extremely talented. Loved watching him race anything he could

Despite finishing 11th at Daytona he's still ahead of Ty Dillon and B.J McLeod. We're 4 races in. That was his first and only nascar cup race

His paint schemes looked nice at least

thank you for the great videos. well edited, well narrated, never disappointed

Runnin' by The Pharcyde, man! The realness!

Always humble, honest and professional. The guy is a role model.

I don't imagine it's as easy as just driving in a circle for a few hours lol He tried, he admitted he wasn't good at it. No respect lost. Travis is a legend in motorsports.

I had hopes when he announced that he would drive in NASCAR that it would not have ended up this way. Unfortunately, that’s how it went.

This didn't age well

Thank you for doing this video. I was waiting to see one about him.

Got a pleasant surprise in 2023 when he recorded a top 10 finish in the Daytona 500

This shows that NASCAR inst for everyone and that it isnt just turing left, and atleast he gave it a try.

Hmm, I never knew Pastrana raced in Nascar. I knew he participated in Monster Jam a few years back, but didn't know about Nascar.

Jacob Cranmer I had no idea either and I've worked with him lol. He was a world champion in WRC which shocked the world , then in rallycross and x-games comp, he also did well in trophy truck series and the Baja 1000 and 500. In fact the building we designed him has his Baja 1000 SXS he wrecked and rolled a ton of times hanging from a chain in the entry of the building all wrapped in lights. It's their chandelier lol a wrecked race prepped SXS still covered in red dirt and sand wrapped in LED's as a chandelier. Who else would do that but Pastrana lol. He's a legend and yeah needed some more time in NASCAR to get better but think he lost interest and wasn't received well by the other drivers. I respect that he pulled out and didn't blame anyone but himself.

mark p he had the funds to continue himself but chose to leave out of respect and honesty don't think it did it for him. World champion motorcross. X-games, ralleycross, trophy truck. Baja series , and most impressive a world champion WRC driver. Nothing harder. I respect that he blamed himself and not anyone else like a lot of other NASCAR drivers ahem Patrick.

Still one of the most bad ass dudes ever. It’s a shame stock car racing didn’t work out for him but he ideas always honorable and never blamed anyone else for his mistakes, he always owned up to it and respected his team and pit crew always. Huge respect to this King, he will always be a legend in motorsports and he is an absolute mad lad.

I remember Pastrana running that year in Daytona. He was racing with Larson, Bowman, and Klingerman in that race. It was the race where I discovered Larson and Bowman.

This reminds me of another driver who did extremely well in other disciplines of motorsport but was a NASCAR bust: Dario Franchitti

Man, this is brutal editing lol. Travis is killing it in Rally now, even held some records at Pikes Peak. Maybe his style of going hard and wide open all the time just didn't transition into NASCAR. He just couldnt figure out how to go slow when needed.

Man I've been getting recommended a lot of Pastrana stuff on KZread lately and I forgot just how genuine he's always come off. He seems humble and just laid back. I remember when he was running I just hated him for being an embarrassment, even though I really liked him in other things. He was just in too deep, he didn't learn stock cars enough to run that level. But I respect the hell out of him for putting it on the line out there and being honest in saying hey I ran out of talent. Really wish he'd have been able to get his feet under him and find some success. I never thought he'd win a championship, but a few wins and some better finishes would have been awesome to see.

Met Travis twice in '13, one of the coolest guys I've ever met anywhere.

watching this in 2023 be like

It's not to late gentleman

This one that I really really wanted to work out. Like imagine if Pastrana came in, raced multiple years, got a few wins. That would have been absolutely incredible. I mean hes already a legend. That would have made him fucking mythical. Still has my respect for how he handles himself and the love he has for people around him. You can tell he did not like feeling like he was wasting everyone's time with this NASCAR run; he really wanted it to work out.

Pastrana is a legend. He got out early in Nascar cause he knew that wasnt his thing. He will always be an idol in the racing/stunt world. Thanks travis!

X games, motorcross, rallycross, WRC, Baja , trophy truck, even monster series , dudes mastered it all,..jsut not enough time in NASCAR. Other NASCAR legends been driving decades IN NASCAR, he wasn't going to be a legend first year, tho he's done that in many other motorsports lol

Lets not forget, he created the Pastrana 199 Monster Jam truck, which later became Nitro Circus. The guy who drove those trucks, Cam McQueen, went on to win the freestyle championship in 2012

Let it sink in that someone as talented and awesome Travis is he couldn't make it in Nascar which goes to show how difficult it really is.

Honestly Travis and Danica have a lot of similarities in their actions. They both came from other motorsports where they were rather successful and just couldn't handle nascar, plus if you look at the wrecks themselves they are similar. The differences come when you listen to what they say. Travis admitting that he ran out of talent and apologizing for wrecking sets him worlds ahead of Danica who just blames everyone but herself and bitches endlessly about anything that dosen't go her way.

Do Ricky Carmichael next, he was all hyped up early in arca and failed in the trucks

Young me was a huge X Games fan, so I always rooted for Travis when I watched the Nationwide series. It's a shame it didn't pan out for him. Never got to see him in the Nationwide series live, but I did get to see him and Kyle Busch in an ARCA/CRA race at my home track back in 2012. I didn't remember too many details other than that Kyle won, so I went back and looked it up. Travis finished 24th out of 30, but the more interesting thing was the other notable names that showed up in the field. Chase Elliot finished 2nd, Ross Kenseth 5th, Daniel Hemric 11th, and Austin Theriault 13th. I didn't know those names at the time, but it's cool looking back and knowing that I got to watch those guys live before most other people did.

I’ve Always had a more of an outsider perspective of nascar, started to get into it really in 2011 and I always was excited to see Travis race, sucks it never worked out for him..

I've got his boost mobile car in diecast form. Was really excited to see him race, shame it didn't work out.

8:55, that’s the problem. He doesn’t have the sensitivity you cant drive a stock car like that.

First Travis is a badass hands down.Me being a long time Nascar fan i have seen many drivers from different disciplines of racing try their luck without success.So for me their is a little-bit of bitter sweet here.The reason for that feeling is all the naysayers of Nascar,and think that it is easy or what ever negative comment they can come up with.When you are in a 3,275 lb car with over 700 hp and no TC or ABS a true 4 speed low downforce compared to other forms of racing we are talking real drivers needed.It may not look like it on TV but these guys are on a razors edge all the time.They sit in a race car that can reach temps of over 150 degrees in the summer months for 3 to 4 hours.Pitstops can make or break you,and that by itself is like a show case of a drivers talent.So Travis was not the first to fail and will not be the last.I just hope he and others has gained a little more respect for the goodol boys type racing.Turning left ain't as easy as it may look,and that's a fact jack

This is the first I'm hearing of him racing NASCAR. Never knew he gave it a try.......

I feel if he hadn't gotten rushed, he would have done better.

What wasn’t mentioned is that he only won that Rally gold medal in 2006 because Colin McRae rolled it, got a puncture, went down to 1st gear *during the roll,* and still finished only half a second behind Pastrana. Pastrana than straight up called McRae "a god."
