Atlanta motor speedway is celebrating six decades of incredible moments like the 1992 championship race, during its next race weekend on March 13th through the 15th, in 2020. Since 1960 AMS has hosted some of the most memorable moments in NASCAR history, and with the speedway's "20-in-20" initiative to make 20 individual improvements for fans, Atlanta Motor Speedway’s 60th anniversary weekend is gearing up to be its best one yet. That's why this spring is going to be the perfect time to experience nascar at a track that's been a favorite among fans and drivers alike; tickets for the 2020 cup race start at just $39, and if you mention this video when you call Atlanta Motor Speedway's ticket office, you'll get an exclusive offer to make your NASCAR trip even better. Head to atlantamotorspeedway.com or call 877-9-AMS-TIX and mention "S1apSh0es" to get your 2020 tickets today. Really happy and excited to bring on Atlanta Motor Speedway as my first sponsor! Give them some love over on twitter: twitter.com/amsupdates

And considering I associated the brand with my dad, and I love my dad, I became a fan of the “Texaco Havoline Ford”. I still love saying that.

And if that was really Chevy, why didn't they kill Bill Elliott? Along with that, why didn't they get rid of Mark Martin? Also also, wouldn't the deaths of those two help Mark and Bill too? And how did they know Gordon was gonna be their hottest commodity? Jeff Gordon went winless in 1993. Hell, why would Chevrolet even care in the first place? Believe it or not, NASCAR's attendance and viewership numbers are currently similar to what we got in the early 90s. I'm gonna venture to say that Chevrolet probably doesn't care much about their NASCAR performance. Their first concern is what drivers they have on their roster. The only company in NASCAR today that seems to give a rip about their performance is Toyota. Aside from that, the drivers on the roster are the manufacturer's first concern. All in all, what I am trying to say is that conspiracy theory is very dumb.

OK, I'm impressed. I was rooting for Alan during this race. I cried the morning he was killed. Read or watched nearly everything out there about him since. I could tell you the name of his girlfriend, the combination of his briefcase (777, go figure) and the usual contents of his car's "glove box". I didn't know about the situation between Junior, Alan and Maxwell House. Knew he had turned down Junior twice, but didn't know about the animosity that grew. Personal guess, they were way too similar. Either way, that's a Kulwicki fact I didn't know. Well done.

My family is new to NASCAR, but huge fans. While my wife cheers on Jimmy Johnson and revels over a lug nut from his car and my daughter’s numerous pictures with Earnhardt Jr. to sitting in Denny Hamlin’s car I never could pass on the memory of watching Richard Petty, Harry Gant, and my favorite, Davey Allison. My father’s constant jeering of his favorite Darrell Waltrip before he went Boogity, Boogity, Boogity. Well today I sat them all down in front of my television and played this video. As tears came to my eyes of the soldiers of the track that we lost I got lost in a moment that would never be repeated. A time when journeymen drivers could still compete and where defining who was your favorite was no easy affair. I respected everybody on that track. For 30 minutes today they experienced what I know and covet as NASCAR. As they realized where the polish victory lap came from and how the King should finish his last race, their eye’s brightened to why this sport is what it is today and can finally see what I see, a time when magic and legends were real. Thank you for another great video. Easily getting a big like from everybody and thanks for the memories. I’ll be sharing this on my website too.

This race was so incredible that I can still vividly remember watching it live 30 years ago, back when I was just a young 10 year old kid. I still recall the feeling of my heart sinking when my favorite driver, Davey Allison, crashed out. I was absolutely devastated. But man, this video brought me back. What a fantastic presentation of such a historic event.

I'm not crying, there's just something in my eye! Great work slap, its my favorite moment ever with the 1996 finale right behind it.

R.i.p first Atlanta race of 2020

As a young NASCAR fan myself (18 years old) I only have a surface level knowledge of races like this. I have no idea of all the pain, trials, and victories that lead up to these moments. Thank you for making these vids and congrats on the sponsor!

Alan Kulwicki and Davey Allison: two legends that are still missed to this day. We never got to witness what the future would’ve been like with them, but we know they would’ve been good, and they would’ve made history; and they did in 1992. Once again, another great video. Lots of emotion, sacrifice, fate and triumph put together for one of the biggest races in NASCAR history. Keep up the great work, Slap, and keep cuttin’ the onions buddy. 👍🏻

I like to think that if they hadn't died, and if Earnhardt hadn't bought it that Nascar would look VERY different today. Less template bs, no stupid playoffs, maybe a real rear suspension setup (the suspension nascar uses, was found in Trucks from the ww2 era). I think Gordon would have a couple more titles to his name too for that matter, as I think Earnhardt really pushed him after Dale died it seemed like the fire was never as hot with Gordon.

A time when men where as tough is Davey Allison and as self-promoting and challenging themselves as Alan Kulwicki. These guys were the best of the best out there racing week after week, no sponsorships from their parents owning the sponsor, no self-loathing cry babies expecting that everyone out there on the track owes them something.

A lot of people don't remember this but some still do. At the start of 92 season Alan Kulwicki had the likes of Ray Evernham and Jimmy Makar working for him. We all know who Evernham is Jimmy Makar was Bobby Labonte's crew chief when they won the championship in 2000.

End of ‘91 for Evernham. He left AK just before Daytona to take the job of crew chief on Gordon’s Busch car. And Makar never worked for Alan. He spent 1991 at Penske as Rusty’s crew chief before moving to Gibbs in ‘92.

This is a perfect example of a topic I don't really care about, presented so well that I loved every second of the video anyway and can't wait to watch more :) Thanks for the great video @S1apSh0es

If watching sports can teach anyone anything, it's that fate does not care who you are. What an amazing time for racing it was. Really set the bar high for what the 90's for Nascar would be.

I’ve seen many videos on this topic, but you actually dove into the backstories (specifically Kyle, Harry and Mark) for setting up this race. Also, you covered the race and had a good analysis of it, including the cautions and pivotal pit stops. Great work!

I wasn’t even close to being born yet and this is still my favorite championship. And my second favorite driver of all time

Damn, man.. damn. I just got into the sport and I teared up.. DAMN. wow..

I quit paying attention when Winston left the sport.

Gives me chills watching your videos. Can't get enough of them Keep up the great work!

Everything about this video is amazing and I’m glad someone someone was able to highlight such an important moment in nascar history. Def a big fan of your work slap👍🏻

NASCAR WAS so fun to watch. I’m thankful for KZread that allows some of us to relive some good memories.

This video made me the NASCAR fan I am today. I’ve watched this video 4 or 5 times now bc it’s phenomenal. Great content. Please keep these kind of NASCAR history videos coming

This race is like November 5th 1955 in BTTF. Love coming back to your videos dude, watched a lot of them several times. Thanks

I watched this race, this was at the height of Nascar. I was a big Bill Elliott fan back then.

This is the third time I've watched this video. It's one of your best and one of the best historical NASCAR videos on KZread. Keep it up.

Nascar Mgmt -- "Hello Mr. S1apSh0es. How can we fix this sport?"

One of the greatest championship finales ever and they didn't need a silly "chase" or playoffs or artificial excitement to make it that way.

How did you get sponsored by a whole ass SPEEDWAY???

Great video!!!! I mean it! I remember watching that race. I was 14. I was a huge Mark Martin fan back then and was bummed out when he blew his engine. Still very happy Alan won the championship. It was such a great story. That race to this day is amazing. NASCAR right now to me is unwatchable to me but your video’s are great!!!! Keep making them!

I can remember watching the Atlanta race. I never even knew how much significance it held until I watched this really. It is my childhood. And you explain it so well and in such detail. Great job!

Fantastic video as always! There will never be another NASCAR finale like the 1992 Hooters 500. Without doubt, the greatest race of all time in NASCAR history.

I hope you still see comments from old videos but I love every single video you have done. It's been a pleasure to find this channel and learn and revisit memories of my childhood.

Such a great video, had to watch it again. I'll never forget my Dad tearing up about Davey while watching an end of the season overview on espn or tsn, now I know why. RIP Davey, Clifford and Alan

I've watched this video many times, and it continues to be just as good as the first time i watched it. Fantastic piece

That was awesome man, and congrats on the Atlanta sponsorship!

Excellent video S1APSH0ES !!! The 92 Hooters 500 was a great race with many stories to talk about and that thrilling championship battle. You certainly put a tremendous amount of effort and research into your videos and they are some of the best Nascar videos I've watched. Thanks ! 😁👍🏁

The final boss of S1apsh0es lore - the 1992 Hooters 500 at Atlanta Motor Speedway I'm a fairly recent NASCAR fan, I'm a couple of seasons in now and with the race this weekend, it only seems appropriate to revisit some of the videos that helped me learn so much about the sport and become more interested in following it. Whether it's a small detail I missed before or I'm gaming and need something relaxing to listen to, I really enjoy the storytelling. I hope you're enjoying the season and thanks again.

I actually met Richard Petty at Atlanta motor Speedway he’s actually a very nice man.

I love these videos, you could really do so much better than any TV documentaries, you're so passionate, these are brilliant, thankyou for all this free and amazing content.

Can't get enough of your channel! Thanks!
