This was the good times for racing, no hybrids no nothing all base on driver skills

Glad you left the commercials in. I remember a lot of those. Good times.

RSChris666, I did it in the beginning just because I was too lazy/stoopid to figure out how to edit. People liked it, so now I'm 'off the hook'! Like I've said elsewhere..I never thought this would ever become a *real* channel, I really dig it that so many folks enjoy the old ads. Funny thing: my day job is actually TV (has been for 30yrs), and I really remember *so* many of the damn things!

Was just thinking how annoying they are. More ads than program!

It's amazing how different the track looks now

I can't thank you enough for uploading these. I'm 28 and it's so great to get the see the racing I've been in love with since i was a kid

I wish Road Atlanta still had the dip. That turn was just insane to watch the cars load up and go through it. I know they had to add in the chicane to get the track rated for ALMS, but I wish they had left this configuration drivable somehow. And the red clay banks instead of walls. It's come a long way.

Thanks For Trans Am Races

It freaked me out at 31:05 when the voice of Garfield the cat from the cartoon started talking and it was a truck lol. Anyway, thanks for the upload. The 80s and 90s are my favorite era of road racing.

man, i really miss seeing david hobbes on tv...

Thanks for the upload. I used to watch the trans am series races when I was a kid. I would have been 10 for this one. It might have had an effect on me lol

+Camaro Rick , Glad you enjoyed it! We loved it, those were great days for T/A. This year was weird, though. The look on my face for that half a second is more of a "WTF?" about the stewards trying to force them on to rain tires than it was about getting rained on. Watching those guys blast through The Dip and brake for T11 as the track dried out is one of my best memories as a Corner Worker, though. Weird weekend for us.

Its still entertaining. Looked like Dillon Machavern lost a tie rod at road atlanta.right rear towed in bad on accell but he held 2nd. I dont get a chance to watch much racing lately unless I spot it on yt. This was awesome to see the downforce with the rain. The dip looked like it would be my favorite turn too. I bet it was a blast Dillon Ma

8:00 minutes in, sweet, sweet mullet.

+jason parry , LOL! Yeah, sign of the times, bro. I'm at 59:00 or so (yellow flag)..looking at it again, you can actually see I had a little one, too at 59:06. Man, I was over 30yrs old in '95, and I think Dorsey's five or ten years older than *I* am! Weird thing..no Camaro/Mustang for me, I had a VW GTI. :)

43:04 Race Starts

Why do the Chevys sound like a four cylinder?

Paul Gentilozzi's smack talking game is lacking lol

What were the difference between cars in Nascar and Trans AM back in these days? It looks like there's a lot of similarities. The body is certainly more symmetric in trans am, because it's road racing. No Earnhardt bar too. I think the trans AM had fiberglass& composites.

3 or 4 link rear suspension, adjustable sway bars, not as beefy since they didn't have to worry about 200 mph for 500 miles. Just a different kind of art.
