What a season Jeff Gordon had, 13 wins in a season. Tying the modern era record, Mark Martin would have won the title himself any other year, with 7 wins himself, he and Jeff Gordon were on another level that year

I was 4 in 98 and became a NASCAR fan when my uncle brought me a 1:64 diecast of Ernie Irvan's Skittles Car. To this day, my driver is whoever is in that candy car. I wore the shit outta this tape and knew every driver even their substitutes when someone was out or injured. Thank you to my dad for getting me this tape at Walmart in '99. God Dammit I LOVE NASCAR!!!

98’ was a special year for me. I was in 3rd grade, Every race weekend would either be at my grandparents house or with my Parents. It was always a big get together on race day.. I really miss those days of Winston Cup Racing.. ALOT of good memories.

Love the cars, the paintjobs, the racing, the drivers, the tracks, the announcers, everything!

The most dominating season ever in the modern era.

Thanks for the memories. I was 13 in 1998, a young NASCAR fan that had just started keeping up with the sport a couple of years before, and #24 was the man!

I hear you when you said this tape has been played over and over and over. As a Gordon fan this will go down as perhaps the best season ever in modern NASCAR history (and by far his best of the Championship years).

What a fantastic season that was to watch! I used to drop everything each weekend the race was on. No DVR, got cable just to watch all the races.

Oh man. Thank you so, so much!! Don't have VCR anymore. Been searching for '97, '98, '99 Years in Review. They were incredible work! Been looking on KZfaq for these three for years. I played the crap out of all three of them so I feel ya!

Fact

Any other year Mark Martin would have won the championship but Jeff Gordon had the best season of the modern era.

My favorite NASCAR season as it was my first when I really watched the races and followed the standings. Remember Mayfield was leading the championship.

I laugh whenever I see comments like “needs to be in 4K”. Screw all that….I like the static. Pure nostalgia. Takes me back to when I’d pop a tape like this in and was too lazy to get back up to adjust the tracking. 🤣

I wasn’t even alive in the 90’s, but I LOVE IT! Great racing, and incredible drivers!

Thank you for posting this. I was 8 in 1998 so this brought back so many great memories from racing and beyond.

they need to come out with a DVD or blue-ray version of this. I don't think many people have VCR's anymore.

The crowd at Fontana.
