1984 Talladega 500 from Talladega Superspeedway | NASCAR Classic Full Race Replay

So cool to watch this for the first time. Thank you very much!

Compared to today's Nascar, there is NO COMPARISON! NONE, ZERO, NADA! it just plain sucks! Dont even watch the trash now. What a pathetic fall from glory. Woke, joke, segments, can you get any more stupid? I'm sure you'll try.

Was this the race with a then record 75 lead changes?

💯💶

The Greatest Of All Time!

I wish Nascar was still like this..

Is stroker made out this movie

Literally 1984

*POINTS STANDINGS and WINS before the 1984 TALLADEGA 500 (19 of 30):*
#3 Dale Earnhardt (2668, GM)
#9 Bill Elliott (-43 with 1 win, Ford)
#44 Terry Labonte (-60 with 1 win, GM)
#11 Darrell Waltrip (-89 with 3 wins, GM)
#33 Harry Gant (-116 with 1 win, GM)
#22 Bobby Allison (-214 with 2 wins, GM)
#12 Neil Bonnet (-323, GM)
#5 Geoff Bodine (-332 with 2 wins, GM)
#15 Ricky Rudd (-364 with 1 win, Ford)

Richard Petty (GM #43 with 2 wins) was having an on-and-off season. Tim Richmond (GM #27 with 1 win) was 12th because of mechanical issues and inconsistent pace. Part-timer Cale Yarborough (GM #28) won the Daytona 500, the Alabama 500 and the Pennsylvania 500. Benny Parsons (GM #55), another part-timer, won the Dixie 500. Despite being the best rookie of 1983, Sterling Marlin couldn’t secure a fulltime ride and didn’t have a good sophomore season.

Drivers listed are the season's current top8, last season's top8 plus the rookie of the year before and whatever race winner that doesn't fit any of those 2 descriptions. Yes, I’m using the unsponsored names of the races. In Talladega’s case, the earlier race is the Alabama 500 while the Summer one is the Talladega 500.

Imo, today's Nascar pack racing is boring compared to the era of speed. These are real races with drama and suspense

The '80's,we still had beer n cigarettes n motor oil Sponsors!...The '90s?!...Sweet tea n Tampons 😂

I was 13 yo at this race 👍

Squire, Jarrett, and Parsons as a guest announcer. The 3 biggest gentlemen in the sport. How lucky are we to be able to watch a broadcast called by these legends ?

Chris Economaki calling Petty's car a "Plymouth" prior to the start. Too bad they weren't doing mental acuity tests back then.

The MAN...who could ''See'' air was born.....!

Buick And Chevrolet Dominated At Talladega From The 80s And Early 90s

People who call this "eAsY" are nuts. Look at how Bill Elliot is SAWING with that wheel.

Uhh, 1984 #43 Pontiac! Plymouth be long gone ya old coot! 😆😆

What does Kathy Coleman of LAND OF THE LOST fame have in common with Richard Petty? She sang in Mike Curb’s congregation in the early 1970s eleven or so years before Curb fielded Petty’s Pontiacs. Curb’s record company still sponsors in NASCAR primarily with Toyotas.

The camera shots from inside the cars, really shows how much of a beating the suspensions are taking. Real men racing!!

Really enjoyed watching this Classic!!!!!! 🏁🏁

Rip Ken Squire 😢

Damn! That was was a good race all the way through!! They had to literally drive the hell out of them things!

LOL i still cant get over Ken Squier calling Labonte "La-bounty."

A day in NASCAR history Dale Earnhardt would become the first driver to win this race 2 years in a row.

With a Rebel Yell...She cried MORE, MORE, MORE...!!!

I like it when 🎧Chris E👓. says that the 43👍 Richard Petty "Plymouth" (200 wins🏁) will be going into the Smithsonian Institute🎪 for display.😂 Now dat funny.🍻😜

1984
1. Jeopardy! returned to television as a syndicated game show, with Alex Trebek as the host, and Johnny Gilbert as the announcer. Austin City Limits in its 9th season on PBS. 2. Lee Greenwood had a hit single on the country charts with "God Bless the USA". The Dukes of Hazzard in its 7th and final season during the 1984-1985 season on CBS. 3. Muppet Babies and Pryor's Place debuted on CBS Saturday mornings. Punky Brewster, Night Court, and Hunter premieres on NBC, all during its 1st season.

1984, Nascar Racing was really into its great years then.
