Awesome interview, McMurray always seemed like he was cool AF when he was driving! Great stories! 4000 MPH 😂

Jamie McMurray is in my personal top 10 coolest racers ever.

Awesome interview. Wasn’t a dull moment. Jamie is an awesome commentator. Whomever needs to keep him employed.

That’s what made Jamie’s run at Roush so frustrating. He was so consistent at Ganassi. I thought he was going to be the next big thing at Roush but it never happened.

This was AWESOME !!!! Jamie needs to be in the booth at some of the tracks calling races. He needs to be more involved because he would be a great commentator!!

Who didn't/doesn't like Jamie McMurray. I always wanted him to do well, probably one of my top favs

Jamie McMurray is a class act. ✌️🇺🇸

Jamie was always one of my favorite drivers when I was little. Always enjoyed seeing him up front at Ganassi. Still amazed he never finished top 10 in points

i love jamie mc, hope he continues to stick around and starts announcing more

One of the weird memories from my childhood. My mom was sick, and I was hanging out in the parking lot at the hospital listening to MRN on the car radio as this happened. I was so flabbergasted and at the same time elated as I was a Sterling/SABCO fan. Really cool memory to have even though I was picturing it in my head listening to the broadcast.

Jamie was always my second favorite driver (behind Jimmie Johnson). I always remember his rousch days the most and he always seemed like he would always run into the worst luck. He would run pretty good then most likely get caught in a wreck that want his fault. When he won the 500 was a moment I’ll always remember as well

A week or so after Jamies win we went to the Auto Fair at Charlotte. I still have a bag of confetti from victory lane. It was still all in the bushes.

J Mc is so much fun. I remember he was on DBC and he was hilarious. He's also one of my favorites on the FOX broadcasts.

Was at Jamie's 500 win. Always liked him and his perspective. Super talented driver too.

0:55 Williams travel center is now apart of Pilot J which will return to JR Motorsports next year since Sammy Smith will take over the 8 from Josh Berry

Jamie’s win at Charlotte is the first race I attended at Charlotte and I remember that night very clearly and I love to root for the underdog and I was pulling for him as the race went on

Jamie is such a great guy and another racer who left too soon.

Jamie was my favorite driver, no real reason why, I just liked the way he drove a car. Pretty neat to hear his stories.

I love listening to Jamie's interviews. Best out there. Now, if we could get him to put his hands in his pockets when on the Hub....

Great interview! Jamie Mac is awesome. I used to hate him because he was the one the ladies loved😂 What a great guy and amazing racer!

I still remember him running that ol 52 modified around i70 speedway. Absolute domination. Very talented, very smooth driver.

This was one of my favorite interviews ever.

I used to be a big McMurray fan when he raced for Roush.

Gordon actually did 5 races in 2000 in Xfinity as well and won his final Xfinity race at Homestead. So technically, Jeff Gordon did win the last race he ran at Homestead 😉

Priceless the way he describes first time in a Cup car feeling like "4000 mph". Cause that's EXACTLY how it feels.

Several years ago, I met Jamie's father Jim while trophy bass fishing at the famous Stick Marsh/Farm 13 near Fellsmere Florida. We became good fishing buddies for a couple years. I live only 30 minutes from the Stick Marsh and Jim loves fishing there so much, he would travel down at least 2 to 3 times a year to fish there. I believe he lives in N.C. somewhere. He would call me about once a month to get the latest bass fishing report, or I would call him if I had a great day of bass fishing there, and we would meet up on the water every time he came down, with me in my little boat and Jim in his boat. Went fishing there with him on his boat one day. What a great guy Jim is. He always wore a big gold ring that Jamie gave him. Jamie earned the ring from winning one of the big cup races, but I can't recall if that ring was for winning the Daytona 500, Charlotte, Talladega, or where. Our phone calls with each other eventually started waning off, and I haven't heard from him in a few years now. I haven't ran into him at the lake either. I hope he's doing ok.

Jamie McMurray Is Awesome

Loved the interview Jamie is a really good guy and loved those days. NASCAR just isn’t the same with all the good guys you grew up watching are now retired or retiring.

As a JJ48 fan, its funny af that Jimmie never liked him and tried to have a rivalry with him of all people 😂 i freaking hope they talk about that 40 car having traction control

I freaking love these stories!!!! Best YT channel ever!!!

A great interview good job

Dang, I never realized Jamie was so funny LOL

Y’all tell us the story about getting the law called on you and Jamie was standing there naked by the pool when they showed up!!!😂😂😂

Jeff Gordon was literally the only big name Cup driver in the mid 2000s that wouldn’t do Busch races

Watched him at bolivar and I44 in Missouri growing up. Some great races with Phillips Beebe Edward's and more

He made chip proud in 2010 won the Daytona 500 and then chip won the Indy 500

Great interview; really enjoyed it!

Jaime tells the reality, no facade. Great conversation.

That was an awesome interview.

This is going to sound weird, maybe even ridiculous. While I definitely have my top 3 or 5 favorite drivers in each of Nascar's top 3 series my top 3 favorite people in the Nascar family don't even drive racecars, and two of them never have in the top 3 series. Larry Mac, Jamie Mac, and Kelly Earnhardt Miller. I think Larry Mac is one of the single most important people to ever be in Nascar, and he was a big part of why Nascar developed that monster fan base in the early and mid 2000's. His excitement even during qualifying was contagious. I can still listen to him talk and tell stories for hours. Jamie Mac is one of the most likeable, most decent people to ever grace the Nascar garages. Like he said, people would run with him simply because they liked him, and he was much like I felt in high school. I got along with pretty much everyone. Just want to live life without drama, and when you get along with everyone for the most part, you don't have to deal with near as much as some do. I'm so glad he stayed around Nascar after he quit driving. Kelly Earnhardt Miller. Wow. When I listen to Dale talk about her standing up for him, and the way she supported him when they were young, it gets me choked up. My dad was much the same as Dale Sr. Just with a regular job in a regular lifestyle, and an average income. Most of Dale's childhood stories and even into early adulthood, I'd swear he was talking about my dad. I was an only child, and hearing him talk about those things, and how Kelly was such a force for good in so many aspects of his life, I think it really helped him stay grounded and not lose his s**t, and helped mold him into the great person he eventually became. I think without her, we don't have the same Dale Jr. that we have now, and that would suck, because Dale is right near the top of that list along with Mike Joy, and a few others.

Jamie is such a great story teller, and speaker, I’d love to see him in the booth as a 6 race stint

That was awesome!!!!

What a great guy.

Sterling marlin was the best superspeedway driver that has so far lived

Always liked Jamie

"I don't remember much about that, maybe you don't either" Dale Jr later: That was my 3rd of 4 in a row at Talladega, didn't want to brag or shame you

Great video!

I was in the stands for that one!!

Jr. Would be awesome to see Jamie in one of your cars. Let Jamie pick the race.

jamie rocks

I loved when Jamie ran that Yellow Busch car in 03-04

My favorite race was when Jr ran him down at Daytona 500 on Valentine’s Day

he's such a good dude

Cool story, my cousin married the pilot Clyde who flew Cessna private Jets for a living. When Jamie was sponsored by Cessna, Clyde would fly him wherever he needed to be. In 2010 coming back with team Chip Ganassi, Mcmurray would give Clyde tickets to whoever Clyde knew who would like to go to the Daytona 500 and any upcoming races. Well I was just starting high school and my uncle called me( who is more closer to that side of the family than I am) and said he has Daytona tickets from Clyde to give to me. Well unfortunately my dad wasn’t going to let me fly all the way to Florida when I just started school. To this day it bothers me that I never got to go. He ended up winning Daytona, Charlotte and Indy in that same year. Clyde has told me on several occasions that Jamie is one of the nicest most down to earth man who always never stopped working. As our family all have said “Jamie Mac!” Thanks for taking the time to read this. Take care!

He mentioned an old "Kwik Trip" in the podcast. If youre from MN or WI and you know, you know!

Jamie was first class as a driver and as a man!!

Little buddy- Tony Glover

I knew back then that he made a huge mistake joining Roush because they were on the verge of a decline, and expanding to a 5th car only made it worse. He was a far better driver than history will show, but he was always stuck with substandard equipment. So much potential wasted.

I remember that race with the Looney Toons car. By the end of that race, Jr had lapped all but like 5 cars and easily won. That thing was hooked up like crazy.

That would be cool to have a road runner livery though!

Williams, that was a while ago. They sold out to Pilot somewhere about 02-03.

me and my dad still call it busch :)

McMurray winning in his 2nd race was a big deal!!

I still have a whole other gear...😂

Jamie Mac finished 26th at that Talladega race.

What an interesting fellow.

Jamie had a pretty good career. Maybe not the greatest one but it was pretty solid.

didn'y Jamie drive the crown royal car for rousch?

Rather see Jamie in the McDonald's car than the two current drivers

He took over the 40 car in 02 season. Once Marlin was out, Smoke got his 1st championship, although I think the 6 car made it a fair fight.

thats not how i saw it in my eyes... i always wondered about this topic. its interesting to think. retired or ex drivers watching tape replaying the years... but its not their prospective they see... they may do to reminisce. but what they see is not their prospective.

I agree with a lot of what you said about Denny, but I don’t agree he only has 2 years left. I’d say 2 years left with JGR sure. Otherwise I believe he goes and races the last portion of his career for his own team to try to get them the chip, even if he doesn’t get it with JGR. He’s very talented and I hope he’s not mark martin 2.0.

If Sterling doesn’t get hurt in 02, he would’ve won the championship 💯 Had he not got that fender damage in the 500 he probably would’ve won that too

He needs a booth spot over bowyer

I miss Jamie and Carl Edwards!

Damn I'm old, I remember I remember Jamie being a rookie! Did Jamie end up staying with Rusty Wallaces daughter?

👍🏽🇺🇸👍🏽

I guess I should say chips teams not chip personally

Typical Jeff Gordon, doesnt like how the car handles but still pulls off a win.

Worst track? He won there 3 times counting the allstar race. The only other non restrictor plate race he even won was indy.

I remember the Rousch guys wrecked a lot of others besides Sterling late that year. The 40 actually ran the same chassis the first 11 races, they changed the body between races.
