How do you eat one cavet?I'm Bob Thicket. Parker Klingerman is on
the line with me right now.You get excited about coming back down to
Austin to race in Coda. Ohyeah, I love that city. The
racetrack is awesome. That city isreally really cool. You guys have down
there. It's it's just a lotof fun. I've got a bunch of
friends that are coming. So whatwe actually get dinner and so Saturday night
(00:21):
after the race, so hopefully we'recelebrated to win. But yeah, really
cool track, cool city. Whatmore can you ask for? We're rooting
for Parker and car number forty eight. Now the car may look a little
bit different on Saturday. Did somebodyreally get a bunch of graffiti and put
ninety eat one cave on your car? Apparently? I mean, I'm surprised
you guys have let this be knownpublicly because yeah, it's we're we have
(00:45):
to call the authorities immediately around here. Yeah, that's true, you're on
it. So yeah, we hopeto bring you to Victor Lane. So
that's it looks cool. Well,I just hope that it brings you good
luck. I really do and stuffit was exciting. I was in the
pit last year watching your racing.By the way, you have got an
excellent pit crew. Appreciate it.Thank you. Yeah, they do a
(01:07):
great job. We uh, wegot a good group. We just we
got to it's in this game.You you're up against a lot of really
good groups of drivers and teams andpeople and pit crews and that sort of
thing, and you've got to yougot to execute and put all together if
you want to be there. Yeah, great pit crew. Let's talk about
CODA because I mean, we've gotwhat twenty curves. That's a very unusual
(01:29):
course, isn't it. Yeah,it's a long one. You know.
It's the same exact course that theyrun in Formula one, so it's a
it's a long lap of Our carsare the exact opposite of for the one
cars, So unlike those cars thatit is meant to go as fast as
possible and they're meant to be indesign to drive as good as they possibly
can, ours are the exact opposite. They're designed to drive as terrible as
(01:53):
possible. So that's the fun ofstock car racing. They're not meant to
do this sort of thing, especiallyin the Suny series, and you know
that makes a challenge with the driverlook, but it's also really rewarding,
right, and so that course it'sa long lap a minute thirty some odd
seconds thirty five seconds for us,but it's a rewarding lap when you put
(02:15):
all together, because when you stringtogether twenty turns in one of these water
buffaloes as I like to call them, you feel like you've done something when
it's a fast lap at the endand you get down it and you're like,
you know, you're just wiping thesweat on your face and going that
was that was worth something? Idid something there, So it's really cool.
We still do about one hundred andmy gosh, I think one hundred
(02:36):
and seventy five down the back straightaway and then we have some of the
longest breaking zones you ever see.But that's some of the fun of these
big, heavy stock cars starting togo around a road course like Coda.
How many cars are going around thesame time, because it's got to be.
It's it's more crowded than it isgoing down Mopack during rush shower.
There's thirty eight, so not quiteas bad. I'd assume you have more
(02:59):
just a tad More. I havehad trouble driving a Honda down there with
all those curves, only going thirtyfive miles per hour, so I can't
imagine how you guys can handle it. Well, no, it's basically the
same thing. You could probably justpull up on the track and feel right
at home. So yeah, ifyou want, Oh man, you know
there's that there's rumors Honda coming toNASCAR. Maybe be the first one.
(03:20):
Really, I'm talking about a Hondacivics what I'm talking about, you know,

the doors could happen. We're gonnasee if the ninety eight one cave at
