My all time favorite driver. He should be in the HofF!!

Met Rudd 1 time and he was the nicest guy! He’s my all time favorite driver

One of my favorite drivers. Love that car.

Great video, thanks for shedding light on such an underrated driver. i knew he was good but never considered how consistent his stats were each year, regardless of the team he was with. He was always my favorite for being competitive still as an owner driver.

70's rookie of the year still winning through the 90's. Yes, great driver.

That Orange colored Ford Thunderbird was the coolest looking car (ever) on the grid. Rudd was always one of my favorites……Total blue chip quality, & low keyed. Great video!

Good video, Ricky Rudd was always one of my favorite drivers. That wreck he had driving for Bud Moore is the story Michael Rooker's character, Rowdy Burns, tells after not being cleared to race in Days of Thunder. The win I remember most is his win at Martinsville where Dr Jerry Punch took off his broadcasting coat and put on his doctor's coat, then interviewed Ricky while Ricky was more or less laying on the ground. He was a tough guy!

Thanks for this. Rudd was always the guy I watched. That Tide car was easy to find on the track.

Earnhardt drove the 3 before Rudd’s short time at RCR. Cool vocal stats 👍🏼

Huge Rudd fan. Quiet, under-the-radar guy who was nonetheless a fierce competitor. Drove some of the coolest paint schemes- Tide, Havoline, Quaker State, etc. Had the privilege of seeing him win twice- once at Pocono and once at Richmond.

Great video, very informative. Thank you Calvin

I loved the tide ride. Darrell waltrip Ricky rudd and Ricky craven. Great year's.

If I could make some suggestions: work on your diction and don’t be afraid to do multiple takes if one doesn’t sound right! Also, don’t forget enthusiasm! If you sound bored, the audience will be bored. You clearly do your research so if you can nail down this aspect you’ll be sitting pretty 👌

Ricky Rudd was not a political driver. He did not rub elbows with the France Family. I'm here to tell you rubbing elbows with the France family was an ace in the hole. Not Rudd. I think the France family loathed him. He was always under the radar but somehow for almost 2 1/2 decades he popped up in Victory Lane. Regardless of the team he was driving for, the funding, resources or whatever, He remained relevant from 1977 all the way to 2005. I can't think of any driver in NASCAR history that just kept on trucking through 3 generations and remained a threat to win. He was a threat in 1977 just as he was in the Wood Brothers car in 2005.

H.O.F.

#Rooster 👍 🇺🇸

He was robbed at sonoma in 91. So ridiculous

I didn't know much about Ricky Rudd. Very fun and informative video. Winning the brickyard 400 back then was a big deal.

I wasn't a Nacar fan for most of his career but I heard about the black flag controversy.
