Cocky Tony Stewart Flaunts His Confidence as He Talks About His Possibility of Getting Back in NASCAR and Still Being Competitive

NASCAR fans do not need an introduction to Tony Stewart. Smoke seems to have done it all when it comes to racing cars, from his early go-karting days to racing in big leagues like Indycar and NASCAR to drag racing, he really has done it all!

For those who are new to the sport, Tony may be an average-looking 52-year-old but don’t let the dad bod fool you. He is a four-time NASCAR Cup Series champion (one as owner) and also the co-owner of Stewart-Haas Racing. He is also the only driver in history to win a championship in both Indycar and NASCAR.

Despite having a massive fan following, Tony is infamous for his short temperament and cocky demeanor, frequently lashing out at his fellow drivers. In recent days, the hype has been up for the senior driver as he is possibly looking to make a comeback!

Is he really coming back?

Talking in the popular “Bubba the Love Sponge Show” podcast, Tony revealed his thoughts on making a comeback. Initially in the podcast, the host joked ” Boy, I got to tell you, they had you looking good as hell on Daytona 500, they had you looking good, you looked about 35!”

Tony, in his usual manner, joked, “Hey, I’m not aging that bad.”

Further, the champion seemed confident when asked about his plans to be on the track again.

The host asked, “Honest to God, do you think that you can get in, honest to God, do you think that you can get in one of your own four cars, you know, you own four cars. Do you think you could get into 41 tomorrow and be competitive at the 500?” 

To which, Tony responded, “In the 500, probably! In the Fontana this week, probably not!”

“Definitely not Bristol, I’m not race fit, that’s that’s that would be the biggest problem.”

Tony seemed to be of a fair mind, accepting both readiness and age as factors. However, his fans would certainly like to watch him on NASCAR tracks again.
