So happy he is out of the mess called NASCAR. Great things come to great people. Congratulations Tony.

That's exactly what you have to do when the car you're up against is faster and is cutting good lights you have to take a shot at the light and that's what Smoke did hell yeah brother!

Stewart made me an NHRA fan. Seeing him in a dragster just looks rite.

Tony, I'm not surprised by how quick that you are growing in the sport, because that's how you are made...to learn everything that you can about whatever you're doing; racing or wake boarding so that you know what kind of boat that you can get for Leah. You are made to give your best to whatever is before you.

This is a new Tony Steward from when I used to watch NASCAR. I remember *ANYONE* with a camera was fair game. haha. You know what to expect with him, and he's always been consistent. I can always appreciate someone like that.

smoke fan since 96 goin rounds son!!! hope to see more of these videos

TONY!!! AWESOME to see in a drivers suit and not in the press booth in a penguin suit 😅😅😅

Go Smoke! 👍👍

Tony, you can race and win in anything run. You look happy again. Best to you both..🙏🙏❤️❤️🐾🐾

Proud of you! Hope to see you at a future "Nitro Chaos" event. It's basically the Outlaw Sprints of drag racing! All run, and one rule (must have nitro in the tank)! Thanks for giving the sport of drag racing a new breath of life!

great job Tony its cool to follow you to new adventure i hope to see you in Brainard some day !!!

Tony, keep up this kind of behind the scenes content like clay millicans channel and i believe the channel will blow up. Personally i love this type of content. Thanks for putting it out. Good luck this year. Rooting for your team. Lets get Kurt Busch out in Pro Stock. That would be awesome also.

thank you tony you are the best...that is why everyone loves you

Ole Tony’s getting that AJ profile. Tickles me Tony’s having so much fun. Go Smoke!!

❤ You guys are AWESOME 🤘 THE NHRAWILDMAN, BILL from Gainesville race way 🌴

Spoken like a true professional, “ that’s why we’re here, experience makes you better, that’s the only way you learn, but “ losing sucks” that hasn’t changed “ I still hate losing no matter what” 👍

It's awesome seeing you racing again don't care what it is just happy you are behind the wheel. Love you smoke

I love you Tony, your competitiveness is second to none. That is the fire needed in drag racing. You have mastered everything before this, and I have NO DOUBT you will master this.

Tony, this is awesome. Love seeing the behind the scenes stuff with your whole team!!!!

Having been a long standing fan of NHRA, and having tge great fortune to attend a few events I had firsthand experience with the what seems to be chaos, is in truth an extremely organized massive event. It doesn't matter which field a person looks at, they are all very busy between runs. I tip my hat in respect to the small armies that makes it all possible. I am talking about the crew that takes care of the grounds and the facility, to the sponsors, and of course to the faces of the sport...the race teams themselves.

Long time fan Tony! So excited to see your NHRA journey. I already follow Clay Millican, so I see Leah once in awhile over on his videos...looking forward to more from you!

Tony, always been a fan. As a 1960's drag racer and retired master mechanic, I applaud your continued career changes. Marriage and kids slowed me but never gave up following.

At the 7:00 mark I saw a look I remember well. You were driving for Danny Leary in his midget. You came in after the second practice. You got out of the car and walked up to all of us smiling. You patted Danny on the shoulder and said " we got this one Danny". We left with the hardware.

Brings a whole new meaning to the “Rushville Rocket “ !!! Way to go Tony !!!

You Da Man Smoke!! I'm so glad I can rout for you again. Can't believe it's so hard to find a driver to pull for in Nascar.

Hell yeah Tony I will be rooting for you when your 90 and racing mobility scooters . You are the man!

Glad you made it to drag racing. You'll be hooked for life!!!

20 years ago I would never had thought I'd get to watch Tony Stewart in a nitro drag car. I can't explain how happy I am to watch every weekend and root for my favorite former NASCAR driver!! Keep digging and I'm sure we will get to see that Mobil 1 car in the winners circle in no time.

Keep Grinding Smoke

Oh boy, you're hooked now. Drag racing has to be the most addictive drug there is.

I'm really glad to see you get into drag racing! Hope to see you at Pomona!

I am so ecstatic and excited that Tony has come to NHRA racing. I been following him in NASCAR. I know he will do well in drag racing. Thank you Tony for sharing your journey in a new adventure. I will be there to cheer you on. Go Tony!!!!!

Kicking Ass and Taking Names !! Awesome way to begin the season being the new guy.Smoke you still and always be my favorite. Y'all be safe out there ✌🏻🇨🇱

Great weekend. Thanks for taking us along.

REALLY happy Leah brought you to drag racin'! They say NITRO is addictive (YEP). Your enthusiasm is awesome (your EYEs were huge after your last pass--drag racing has set it's hook in you--ENJOY!)

This was my first ever NHRA event I ever saw in person and watching yall win funny car made it that much better

Thank you for sharing your awesome experience Tony. Great to see Smoke again!

Gatornationals, got to be perfect. T Stew will get a Wally.

Awesome job Tony and team! Great to see you all Win! 👍🔥

Tony the first time I met Leah was 35 years ago when she was piloting nostalgia nitro funny cars at Sacramento raceway. I took a picture with her and just like today I still have those photos. I also have photos with Matt Hagan. One of these days smoke you will win in top alcohol dragster.

Tony I just subscribed to your channel and keep watching a flywheel racing main at all forms including on NASCAR witches I was at the Vegas race good luck on the channel man only guy I know that can drive all kinds of cars in this day and age I used to be things back in the day you had drivers like a.j. foyt Mario Andretti I could do it on so in the words of a.j. foyt that's a big sure and also for certain sure

Wow watched all weekend then this insight thanks Tony hope to meet you again in Seattle last time I shook your hand you won in Watkins Glen in New York

I'm so glad Tony is running in the NHRA .. I was a fan already but now I have even more reason to follow the sport.

“If you lost it’s because you got beat”. Love it.

Smoke will go down as the most natural racer EVER in motorsports, he's the new Dos Equis most interesting man of racing!!! Long time fan lovin seeing you enjoy life having fun. Good luck!!!

The fishing analogy struck me, very true.

Talk about enjoying life... Congrats Tony...

Awesome!!

This is awesome ! THANKYOU TONY !

My favorite driver of all time,cool your learning another sport,still use my #20 grill weiner holder hahahahaha,good luck in the future and safety first,now SMOKE them.

this behind the scenes stuff is REALLY cool to see, keep it up tony! been watching you my whole life and ive been a drag racer at heart, i started Jrs at 8 so its awesome to see your transition

Nothing like the smell of nitro in the evening...

Wholly crap, I didn’t know my reason to love nascar in the ole orange number 20 is doing NHRA I have always know that Mr Stewart could drive anything with wheels and without. This right here is a gift and I found it from Cletus’s channel, you sir are one of my favorite wheelmen on the planet. As I said got me to watching nascar and all the other things you have raced. I remember a cup race and a open tire rice in the same day or weekend, it was long ago but I will never forget that. Thank you 🙏 😊

Actually a great weekend all around

great job...come on Tony we need a big WIN.....

Awesome!

Great Video !!!

It nice to see you racing Tony

Dam that was awesome I love me some tony Stewart you getting in the NHRA is a great thing

It’s was great to see you at the first race of the season “ Gainesville “ good luck this year to you and Leah🏁🏁

Thanks for the video Tony. I have always been a fan. I have watched you race from the the start of your Nascar career. Always watched on TV. Got to see you race at 1 race I attended. It was in Texas when you were running pretty darn good until you had a touch up with the wall. I believe your car caught fire then. I was so happy to see you out of the car and not injured. The fire on the car got put out..but that fire in your heart to race and win and if not win to give it your very best shot to try and win. Keep up the great legacy you have created. Always pulling for you.

Tony found your channel and I love it keep it up. I have a lot to catch up on but I am 70 and have some time I guess. I live west of kokomo Indiana. My grandson is stationed in California Port Hueneme Naval Base. He is getting his schooling for the Air Force in vehicle maintenance. Him and some of his squad are going to work at the race at Ponoma in the pit area I told him there is another Indiana going to be there. The best of luck to you and your whole team and congratulations on all of the new things going on in your life .

I don't know how I stumbled on this channel. Tony has always been my inspiration and why I stayed in NASCAR as long as I did. But his career path changed. I respected his decision, to step out of the drivers seat. And now except for seeing him when I do catch a NASCAR race as a commentator I had no clue he dove over to the drag racing scene. Hell yeah brother now I will watch you on this side and spiked my interest again for Drag Racing. I was always a John Force fan but now you and your team on the ticket gives me so much more to root for in my disabled life as a Veteran...BTW Awesome Video, can't believe the low sub count, I think many of your ole' school fans were like me and just didn't know your racing this series...hope your channel and your team much prosperity.

Tony followed you dirt racing. Nascar Died with Dale but I've always been a NHRA fan Smoke & Clay please keep up behind the scene's at the track and car ....

Looking good bud! Only way is up from here!

Congratulations to you in the funny car team on the big win can't wait to see you and Leah in the winner's circle sporting that Wally

This video is edit is great! Keep the uploads coming!

Keep up the great behind the scenes, Smoke!

Hell yeah TSR!!! More of these vids, please!

Great content Tony, Leah and team!!! hopefully We'll see Leah get In one of your dirt cars or asphalt cars. I think that would great to see her try your sport. You guys get along so well that would be awesome to see.

Way to go Tony !
