This is going to be fun to fallow

Stewart’s win was very popular with the fans. He got probably the loudest applause of all the winners.

Feels like the very first time ~

I keep seeing this video everywhere. Awesome interview, gone worldwide.
The buzz NHRA and Drag Racing needed all around. New???? I know, settle down ...

I hear people are steering away from nascar ..

 

[Afuelracer]

And how about THE BULL team, Clif Bakx with Todd Bruce driving, runnerup showing by .0003!!! One hell of a good weekend for that team!

 

[Cliff]

I think .0003 = 1 inch. It would be cool to get some NASCAR racers in NHRA.

 

[LasVegas87]

So close and so cool. Great exposure for the sport. The only downside is it happened so quickly that people may perceive drag racing as 'easy' when the reality is far from that. It does show what type of competitor he is, in case anyone didn't already know. McPhillips seems like a positive guy, fun team.

His participation in NHRA and drawing in fans has got to be killing NASCAR. You can tell he's having a hell of a lot of fun. Congrats on the win.

 

[mick]

sooper cool. congrats on your first nhra wally yesterday tony

 

[Butch]

I still want him in a Drag Boat, so we can all say SMOKE ON THE WATER. Pun intended.

Pretty sure that Tony would like people to enjoy both NASCAR and NHRA. He has a lot more invested in his NASCAR teams than in the NHRA teams. It doesn't have to be one or the other. The main thing I see in this deal is that beside the name recognition Tony has convinced Big Time sponsors that it is worth advertising in NHRA as well as NASCAR. The cross advertising is a win - win deal and just may bring owners & drivers with their sponsors to NHRA. I am convinced that Tony could sell ICE Cubes to Eskimos and maybe other sponsors may follow him and jump on the band wagon and bring their Drivers and/or Owners over. Multi Sport recognition can only be good.

The one thing I have always admired about Tony. There is no Smoke.

 

[tom]

best interview EVER. If there was an election by the fans for a new NHRA president I would make Tony the 1 to 5 favorite. Everything positive, but no bull.

Edited for accuracy ...

 

[tom]

He would actually accept that job.

 

[chop]

I never said it was either or. If you think NASCAR is happy about Tony's success in NHRA and the pub bringing in fans that NASCAR is struggling with...............well.

 

[Jer]

Great job,he's done alot of good over here!
