He was 21.... Not that it really matters

Rob was not driving when they left the bar. His girlfriend was, nobody knows when he got behind the wheel. But it was after they left the bar. That's why nobody tried to prevent him from driving at the bar he wasn't driving.

He Was 22

SUBARUWRC555Jiffy perhaps Barry had motives........

When he left the bar his girlfriend was driving, nobody knows when he got behind the wheel.

Can't blame Barry for that. Period

drinking and driving was not the taboo back then that it is today. Even my law abiding dad would sometimes drive with a beer.

@@johnboy4025 🤔🤔🤔

I’m not triggered but I do think about the fact that it was a different time, before DUIs where the taboo offense of today. Even if they were, he was just a kid, he was famous and used to success and was clearly struggling to deal with failure. No it doesn’t make it okay but there’s no need to shit on him for what he threw away. He didn’t intend on wrecking and if he hadn’t killed that poor woman ppl would be remembering him as a what could’ve been and not what pos moron. Like us regular ppl always made responsible decisions at 21 without the pressure of fame. We just got lucky and didn’t die

It’s always easy to judge someone in hindsight and if the op of this video didn’t take such a hardline stance on this kids stupidity then I guarantee you that this comment section wouldn’t be full of ppl saying how stupid the kid was. It’s easy to say harsh things when everyone else is, the tone was set and ppl went with along. If this video shown him in a tragic light then that’s how most ppl would have reacted and commented because like it or not most ppl are sheep. They get in where it’s easy to fit in. If everyone says one thing then they say it too cuz they wanna be accepted. Everyone should just take 10 seconds and remember some of the stupid shit they did at 21 and got away with, now think about if u hadn’t been so lucky, would that make u a piece of shit?

Dalejr88rox yeah road rage affects all of us. It wasn’t the alcohol that caused him to do that, it was his road rage. RIP Rob Moroso.

IT WASN’T THE ALCOHOL? DID YOU EVEN WATCH? HE WAS TWICE THE LEGAL LIMIT. TWICE. YOU THINK THIS WAS ABOUT ROAD RAGE? JESUS! HE WAS BEING A DRUNKEN FOOL AND CRASHED AND KILLED A HARDWORKING MOM.

TrueTallicaFan0343 You are an absolute idiot.

@@TrueTallicaFan0343 You realize alcohol impairs judgement too, right?

Guys, calm down. He has a point. Yes i know it wasn't road rage but are you trying to kill him or what?

Drunk people dont make good decisions and you cant hold them responsible for them.

@@theoneonly259 then they shouldn’t drink, they know the consequences of drinking and driving before they even drink, so they definitely know. Don’t make excuses for these sorry kinda people

@@christophermotley6695 I am not making excuses but when someone causes an accident unintentionally that does not make them a bad person. We all make mistakes.

@@theoneonly259 when you drive drunk and don’t care 🤷‍♂️ yes you are

@@christophermotley6695 There is a reason why you cannot sign a contract while drunk buddy. Its because you are not in your right mind. If anything you should have sympathy for a person that causes an accident while drunk because they have to live with that for the rest of their lives. They had no intention of causing anyone any harm.

His girlfriend was driving the car when the left the bar. SHE should have NEVER switched spots with him.

@@steviechampagne that makes her as much at fault and does not make him any less at fault.

He could have been a future star if he didn’t drink and it was unfortunate he had everything but drinking (along with other bad choices) was very bad and idiotic and he even kill a guy and injured a women because he was driving under the influence like if he didn’t drink and made better choices he wouldn’t be on the bust list and heck could be in the hall of fame if he made better choices which unfortunately he didn’t and obviously pay the price for it and I don’t like him because of the many idiotic things he did and if he made better decisions I’m pretty sure i liked him.

you're a bust

Dale Sr would be crashing a ton in that shit car

When Derrike Cope was lol

I'm not upset calling him out for drunk driving. I'm upset for calling him a bust. When he moved to cup he didn't have good backing. The equipment they ran with was hand me down junk. It's not like they had a budget to compete. You sent be called a bust of most of your career wasn't in top equipment. You really think JJ Harvick or Busch would be competitive in Front Row or Roush or RCR or any mod to lower team today? Hell No.

People that are drunk dont make good decisions so its idiotic to get upset at them for those decisions. No doubt you brainless retards would be even more upset with him if the woman he killed was pregnant. In Australia it is illegal for an establishment to serve someone alcohol if they are drunk. Its the responsibility of the establishment because a drunk person doesnt know when to stop. Because they are $&$&ing drunk. If you want to blame someone then blame the establishment that continued to serve him alcohol until he was twice the legal limit, then blame the guy he called for help - then blame his girlfriend that apparently let him drive after they left establishment. What dumb stuff have you done while drunk? The fact that you havent killed a pregnant lady while drunk is just blind luck. You dont know what you are doing while you are drunk.

Jeremy B No! That DUI might have saved the sport. I only say this because nobody got hurt, but we needed Brian OUT!

@@johnboy4025 the sport is long gone already.!

@@lskiller1903 false

But these stupid fans today don't know that. How hard it was to get a good ride. Back then.

He was a victim of other people's wrecks when he raced in cup

David Streame was way talented more than that moron Rob.

@@malikdigger4544Rob had talent

Replacing Sterling Marlin Was Pathetic

Jeff Gordon was put in Top tier car. If you put Gordon on a small team or put Gordon in Moroso cup car he wouldn't be successful and back running open wheel cars

James, Jeff Gordon was in GOOD stuff but he and Ray made Hendrick a powerhouse. I still feel Jeff would have found success with another team.

One dumb decision? You think that was the first time he drove drunk?

Seems like it

Black Flags Matter the state of North Carolina made a mistake

Wonder when nascar made that change.

Never. The author of this video is full of shit. You don't have to now, and never did need a road license to drive in NASCAR.

Yeah, 80s and early 90s weren't exactly the same as now, people with 5 DUIs would be driving again within a few years.

What in Carnation? just like with chase elliott

Just like Trevor Bayne when he won Daytona

Just like Casey Atwood!

Mayne he should have stayed in Busch Series for a couple more years 😄😁🏁🎰

Rob needed more than one season....

Karl Singleton Shane Hmiel style.

In Favor of Ward Burton

He didn't race often enough though

When did he come to NASCAR I only remember him in IndyCar Series

Malik ElcoSS454 he was in NASCAR Bush series around 2008.

Dario drove stock cars? I guess open wheel just doesn't translate to stock cars then

@@minigungaming5915 the only reason he be was in NASCAR was because he was fed up with driving for Andretti but chip Ganassi had his Indy drivers contractually locked up so he drove NASCAR for chip as a favor

@@jamesgentry13 Huh. I never knew that.

Correct

@@MatthewLewisAtlanta wait what? if you're not legally qualified to drive a car at 50 mph how are you legally qualified to drive one at 200 mph

@@anthonyruggiero1988 because races are held on private property not public roadways. The govt can only control who drives on public motor ways. Same situation as if someone were teaching their young kid to drive on a farm or their backyard or something like that, which is legal as well.

@@anthonyruggiero1988 Morgan Shephard had his driver's license suspended for most of the 80's

Parsons ran the first few races of the 90 season but Morgan McClure wanted a more aggressive driver. So they hired Swervin Irvan.

Tell them to come at me bro lmao

Because Moroso wasn't actually driving at first, his girlfriend was

Dude, there has always been 40 or more drivers in the field, and 39 or more losers every week...

BigRybone 24 Lol. I search for him in the r/nascar and people said the same thing as him about Moroso. So nope

You cannot have empathy for Tammy, unless you are dead moron... Empathy means you have lived through what they have...

Duke Scarberry how was your time in the Cup series?

In the Cup Series, I have to agree with you there... Idk, he lucks up on a Daytona 500 and everybody thinks he's the next big thing. He never really impressed me much, even in the Xfinity Series. I hope I don't trigger anyone... lol

This trigger me. I would say Danica Patrick was worse

Trevor Bayne is like Danica 2.0 since she left. Dude's on his way out at Roush if Kenseth is splitting the ride with him. I'm sure a team like Front Row would want him though lol!

Jim Front Row is outta business.

@@JReaLBiz86 how is he a bust? No one ever said he was going to be successful after winning Daytona. Wood brothers were still running a partial schedule and didn't have good equipment. He moved to roush when Roush equipment already sucked by that time.

Help Me alcohol did not cause that. It was road rage. I’ve driven drunk plenty of times and if you do the speed limit or speed but use common driving sense (obey traffic control devices, look and make sure it is 100% safe to change lanes) you should be fine. Driving is deadly without drinking too so let’s just not care about people that drive drunk. See how messed up that sounds?

TrueTallicafan0343 what sounds really messed up is you thinking there is nothing wrong with driving drunk.

Bass fishing Jim I’m pretty sure you have driven while tired or texting too. Anyone who texts while operating a car in motion needs a ticket because that is extremely dangerous

You don't get it and that's ok.. Driving drunk is never ok that's common sense. You'll learn the hard way one day.

@@jeepernj99 hopefully without killing someone else

Terry Labonte entered the full 1979 season at 22

Martin was cheated out of a title in 1990 for bullshit reasons.

What about against Tony Stewart?

I would say he was also screwed that year he finished second to Johnson too

It would of helped if Rob had a good ride

I wouldn't consider it a bust at all. He was in crappy equipment. Would Jeff Gordon be successful in that car? Or and small budget team in cup? No way

Tim was not

Again people miss the point you're only as good as the equipment you're in. Moroso was in junk cars his rookie year. Richmond was in junk most of his career until he drove for Hendrick he was successful.
