I'm positive no other channel is having the great in depth conversations that you are Kenny!

I always say that was the best video. This one with Superman was off the charts. It was real. Answers were genuine. Love the honesty. Jonathan Davenport is now my favorite. He is the driver you dream of being. Jonathan Davenport deserves everything he has worked for. And just think, this guy is only 39.

I got cold chills when he said Bloomquist…. He didn’t hesitate. Always loved to root against Bloomquist, but deep down inside I always knew he was the guy. Cool interview!

First of all this was a great interview,JD has earned his way in dirt racing and anybody can tell he's true to the sport.Ive watched him race at Fayetteville North Carolina and Dublin North Carolina and win or lose he is the same.He has a good point about the facilities at most dirt tracks,that they need to clean up their act.The question he answered about Bloomquist and Moyer was spot on,I think JD or Superman would be an outstanding ambassador for the sport and he has earned it.Kenny thanks for sharing...

Johnathan is a true class act in the racing world. He has made is way in the sport to be among the best like Bloomer and Moyer. And he has many more years to go and more races to win in his career as a driver. Thanks for that video. Keep up the great job Kenny.

I went to the Show Me 100 this year, and every driver there was saying that Jonathan Davenport was the one to beat. He put on one hell of a show there this year. I didn't get an opportunity to talk to Jonathan as he didn't finish the race as I was told he ran out of fuel. Ricky Thornton Jr. won, then disqualified due to failing the droop rule. Jonathan had the car to beat. Congratulations to him for winning the Dream.

Great conversation Kenny. You can really get a decent gauge on people in longer formats like this and you can tell JD is a good dude. Has a really calm demeanor that I think comes across as pompous or arrogant to people who don't know of him and just know what he's accomplished, but in reality he's just a chill guy and humble and trying not to act no better than anyone else.

My gosh Kenny, what a great interview. One car for Eldora only. Who else does that? Davenport certainly has it now. How long he'll have it. Nobody knows. Just takes one big boo boo to make it go away. Hammer down JD, you've got it. I'm totally against leveling the playing field. That's one of the main things that have messed up NASCAR. It limits progress and innovation.

Something that kills local dirt tracks, is time. Majority of these shows could be done by 11pm. And your their till 1am or later. Due to wasted time. My local track, I swear the wrecker crews add an extra hour to the night, not knowing how to hook the damn car up, and get them off the track. Lots of wasted time with nothing happening, or waiting on cars to come to the track. Instead of telling them your either on the track when we start, or your not racing.

3 different compounds. Mount them and go. Teams shouldn’t have touch them. Mind blowing these tire manufacturers can’t make a tire that’s already grooved and shit, that can just be bolted on. Guess it makes to much sense
