get to see one of my best friends l J

(01:37):
TPM sucks at a tire changer kind of guy.

Speaker 1 (01:41):
Yeah, he's like struggling.

Speaker 2 (01:44):
At least I didn't have a loose wheel like justin
Bonzi or did today. So, uh my resume is still
in an email dog.

Speaker 1 (01:51):
So uh am I still loud? Are you good? All right?
Because I ain't ending ship?

Speaker 3 (01:57):
But no, I mean we we went and enjoyed sobo,
I mean what did we go do?

Speaker 1 (02:04):
The didn't we go to a race track?

Speaker 3 (02:05):
We went down to Southern National and stuff like that,
but we didn't do.

Speaker 1 (02:08):
A podcast episode because that's so.

Speaker 3 (02:11):
I took a job over at Brunholzel Race and Jack
so you get if you guys need you Jack's rebuilt
or anything like that.

Speaker 1 (02:16):
Get a hold of brunt.

Speaker 2 (02:17):
Holes, especially the guy from the Milk Bowl that it
took thirteen jacks to get the thing just off the ground.

Speaker 3 (02:23):
Let us know, Jesse Switzer, get a hold of us.
Oh but man, it's been a long time coming since
we've been able to do this ship. But first week
we went, when I first got down here, got down
here Friday Saturday morning, we didn't have anything to do, right,
we didn't have We didn't go do nothing.

Speaker 1 (02:43):
We would do a race track, yeah, but we didn't
go help out Myers or anything.

Speaker 2 (02:46):
So we went to see Sammy and Parker.

Speaker 3 (02:48):
Yeah, so we went and saw Sammy Pechit is that
always say it.

Speaker 2 (02:52):
Pechit Yeah, Pachetti or whatever they say.

Speaker 3 (02:58):
It's cheat, cheat and uh, and a good friend down
here Parker as well. Got the experience glen Wood have
and anybody that comes to visit us in North Carolina,
we're going to Glenwood and uh, it's definitely a it's
definitely a fun time down there. But we went out
to Southern National, which which was a track that I've

(03:21):
known for a while that was really up and going,
and obviously over the past couple of years it's gone
The total different fucking direction, and I know they I
know they have to like the Thanksgiving Classic, which I'm
excited to go and see. But that night that we
went there, dude, some guy got put fence hard down

(03:43):
the backstretch, and Southern National is not a small track,
so you're carrying some fucking speed out there. So I
look at James and I look at Parker, and I'm like,
what the fuck is taking safety so long to get
out here? James just looks at me goes, oh, no,
there's no safety here. I'm like, what the fuck do
you mean? There's no fucking safety. So I don't know why,

(04:06):
and I'm not going to ask why. Well, I am
going to ask why, but I'm not going to try
to figure out why safety wasn't there. Like that day,
as I hear Mariah Carey in the other fucking room.

Speaker 1 (04:20):
Here, I don't get it, Like I don't know.

Speaker 3 (04:22):
We got R and B Classics going on today, but
I know for a fucking fact, I'm not going to
race no motherfucking track that I know that there's no
ambulance there. I mean, James bought a whole car that
passed Bristol dirt, and he asked the guy why it
was all exhaust tubing for a roll cage. And he
told me just recently, you told me that he sent

(04:45):
back what not.

Speaker 2 (04:47):
Many people care about safety, man, some people just don't
give a fuck.

Speaker 1 (04:51):
So so we got those kinds out here too.

Speaker 2 (04:56):
But when on that note, the guy did that, how
does a radio feel to the face?

Speaker 3 (05:01):
Oh, yeah, that's right. He is the one that caught
a radio. But it is what it is. So yeah,
that was my one big like eye opener. I don't
know why because the next day they had it. So
why didn't they have it one day? You're not going
to do it for the chargers that are easily doing
ninety around that place.

Speaker 2 (05:19):
Yeah, and how's how is a tow truck? You like
that tow truck?

Speaker 3 (05:22):
Tow truck's a Koboda tractor with two forks on the front.

Speaker 2 (05:27):
And then the one track safety vehicle is just a
Koboda Like it's just it's just a little side by side.
That's it. The only, like I said, the only race
that they like. It looks good, the track looks good.
They have track workers kind of they might have a
tow truck. There is the classic. Other than that, it's
you saw what it did. That that's the best it gets.

(05:47):
I mean into a point fans empty like it was.

Speaker 1 (05:51):
You know, it's a.

Speaker 3 (05:52):
Late late it's a Saturday, yeah, I mean, but it's
late in the season. They have big races going on
the same time they have had they where did where
did cars Tour race?

Speaker 1 (06:03):
The week before? There's a car tour race going on.
I don't know what.

Speaker 3 (06:09):
I have to see how the geographic needle is on,
like races, Like if something's racing, what who?

Speaker 1 (06:17):
Where do fans go? You know what I mean? That's like,
that's like one of.

Speaker 3 (06:22):
The big things. I gotta figure I gotta figure out
everything down here. I mean I go, I go and
enjoy Moresville, North Carolina, and that's just a ball. It's
it's really awesome that you can go to a whole
fan fest thing and you can see drivers getting dunked
in the dunk tank and all this stuff and like

(06:42):
a Spire Motorsports. So I went over there for lunch
when there got some free food.

Speaker 1 (06:48):
Saw saw the whole thing.

Speaker 3 (06:50):
Saw their new building and all that stuff or somewhat
old building.

Speaker 1 (06:54):
But but you.

Speaker 3 (06:56):
But you want yeah, but you woantn't be able to
do that stuff up North at all.

Speaker 1 (06:59):
There's nothing. That's the only.

Speaker 2 (07:02):
Thing that New Hampshire used to do and Conquered was
they would shut down Main Street and have that like
race fever thing. Yeah, but then they just randomly stopped it.
Because I remember going as a kid. Yeah was we
lived in Conquered for a little while when I was young. Yeah,
and that was dude, every shit we would drive, I'd
be driving, I'd make my mom drive around Conquered that
week because you'd see all the haulers parked at all
the hotels are randomly around, you know, sleeping and getting

(07:25):
ready to go to Louden for Thursday. It's like I'd
make them on every Wednesday night, let's go, let's go around, like,
let's go see fucking Kenslith's trailers sitting next to Junior's trailer,
like on the side of the fucking road, next to
a hotel. And then they had like a race fever.
Like I've met Ricky Craven, i met Ricky Rudd.

Speaker 1 (07:38):
Yeah, you know, you.

Speaker 2 (07:39):
Could do all this cool shit and then all of
a sudden it just stopped.

Speaker 1 (07:41):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (07:42):
Just kind of like how the fan fests, like the
fan zones now are like all of a sudden, all
that shit just like poofed away. It was just gone.
All the good shit. I remember it would take eight
hours just to do one you know, loud and yeah
fan fest. Now it takes fifteen fucking minutes.

Speaker 3 (07:57):
Yeah, and now it's just like sign up for thisign
up for that. Here's a key, you.

Speaker 2 (08:01):
Could win a car, a free vacation. You can get
a deal on a vacation.

Speaker 1 (08:07):
M yeah.

Speaker 3 (08:08):
So but I mean, I don't know why they stopped
doing that, because I forgot all about that until he
brought it up.

Speaker 1 (08:17):
But I mean that that's a cool fucking thing.

Speaker 3 (08:19):
But like, like I said, I gotta fucking figure out
like all this stuff, but I think that's cool. Or
over by, uh, over by like Buzzy Racing. We're over
by ham Key where I work, uh literally right across
the way. If you guys have me on Snapchat. It's
just Spencer Boyd's whole race team is right there. So

(08:39):
we get to we get to enjoy some cool shit
like Craftman trucks just driving down the road and.

Speaker 1 (08:46):
Stuff like that.

Speaker 3 (08:46):
They're at late models tuning up for big races because
we've got longhorned chassis out there and all that stuff.

Speaker 1 (08:52):
So it's cool. It's cool that I finally made the jump.

Speaker 3 (08:55):
And come back down here and now we're just trying
to figure it out, you know what I mean. So
this past weekend we went over to Sobo South Boston,
first time I ever been there. Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
fucking facility over in South Boston.

Speaker 1 (09:11):
If you guys have never gone, definitely do so it is.
It is great.

Speaker 3 (09:15):
I mean, the bathrooms are nice. Pork pork shop, that's
all he was talking about. He's like, dude, the shipters
are right here. I'm like, what the fuck? We had
Jamie Jamie Short having like twenty seven fucking Baloney burgers,
which they are fucking good. The Boloney Burgers out at
South Boston is a It's definitely really good. The whole

(09:37):
works on it. You're you're doing great. But it's a
beautiful facility top the bottom. Everything's painted, everything looks great.
There's there's tons of money into that fucking place. But uh, yeah,
we had a we had a fucking long.

Speaker 1 (09:55):
Long day.

Speaker 3 (09:55):
Me and James thought it was a good idea to
go to go in have a couple at a few Yeah,
adults soda pops literally right down the street. But you
can go fifteen minutes or twenty minutes down the street.
You can sit there for four or five hours. So
we can't get home because the bars don't shut down
out here till what time?

Speaker 1 (10:17):
Did we get the fuck out of there?

Speaker 2 (10:19):
Too? When was the last call too? No, they were
still trying to serve me when I was walking out.
So yeah, so it's the karaoke ended it too. I
think the bar closed at like three thirty. Oh jeezus.

Speaker 3 (10:31):
So like as you guys can see, if Parker doesn't
get us kicked out of bars, we can stay there
for a little while.

Speaker 1 (10:39):
What do you mean, I just want a fucking beer.

Speaker 2 (10:41):
So talking shit, sit on the porch, talking all.

Speaker 1 (10:45):
That shit, but still sit on the porch. I love that.

Speaker 3 (10:48):
I love that man, dude, he is so good, He's
so such a great there's so many characters out here
already that I've met that is just fucking awesome. But
we had a long day at South Boston and fucking
first practice we got absolutely it was that you and man,

(11:09):
we got absolutely killed. Going into three, I had yeah,
so rear left, rear was fucking shifted forward. The whole
rear end was fucking bent, so we had to fix that.
We literally jacked up that car four or five times.

(11:29):
Patrick Coggins, who owns the forty eighth that album, was driving.
We were trying everything in the world to try to
put the plate back to where it was somewhat decent
and then set trying to get the car like all
squared away. But we couldn't get it all fixed. I mean,
it's pretty hard when you have a bench rear end
to try to make it okay. But we definitely did

(11:50):
our best finger painting action and try to make it
the best that we could. So it was just it
was just a long day, long day. But he we
even with all this stuff that like we did, we
went out and qualified fourth, but we had to start
last because we didn't go within order. But we at

(12:12):
the same time just put the car together just finish.

Speaker 1 (12:18):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (12:18):
Yeah, so we we put everything back on, uh, put
the tires to what it would need, and then we
had to get a new right rear because we they
practiced on their A tires ago just for the first
practice get a mock run in and uh that's what
I'm guessing.

Speaker 1 (12:36):
I don't know, but uh.

Speaker 3 (12:38):
Destroyed the fuck out of four wheels to end the day.
We'll just start there. But uh yeah, so we got
it together and like you said, we literally just rolled
it out, put the hood pins on it, and then
just went and uh qualified fourth, had to start last
because we didn't go within order.

Speaker 1 (12:58):
How they did it was like.

Speaker 3 (12:59):
The slowest cars, Uh go first and qualifying And obviously
we were the slowest car, slower cars because we didn't
even get a fucking lap. We couldn't even get we
we didn't even get the peach buzz off our fucking
face yet before we got clammed, you know what I mean.
So it was just one of those things. So we

(13:20):
rolled that out and uh yeah, I mean, how did
your guys' practices go? I mean, you help out Jason
Myers now, oh yeah, thanks.

Speaker 1 (13:31):
For the thanks for the we'll get there.

Speaker 3 (13:34):
Yeah yeah, dude, Oh my gosh, we keep going.

Speaker 1 (13:38):
How was how was.

Speaker 2 (13:39):
We we get a straight hour practice? We had four
brand new tires we were gonna put on after we
did a mock run with the old tires, and we
also had our normal state other like stadium car. They
kind of use it as a starting park or a
rental ride the eight car, so we had Andrew Harra.
He runs a lot of the hunter lappers at the

(14:00):
stadium and so we had to hit that car there
with him. So I had pretty much was pit crewing
on two cars, and then there was Slate's car in
Burt's car, which they had enough people on those two
that I really didn't have to worry about it. But
we went through the first practice, the eight clutch was
was messing up, so he had to we had to

(14:22):
withdraw him and just we rolled him into the trailer.
After practice, the four car was good. He was talking
about a little snug in the well, a little snug
in the center, a little loose off action, but we
were fixing her up with the track bar and we
got her pretty good after that. Then that's when Jason
hopped in the eight car and did a couple of

(14:42):
apps and he didn't think he didn't even go full speed.
He's I do the clutch gone.

Speaker 3 (14:49):
You know, you guys, have you guys if you guys
have never met Jason Myers or Bert Myers or that
whole crew ever, when they do those fan things, I
want you guys to go down.

Speaker 1 (14:58):
And go and go talk to them.

Speaker 3 (15:00):
Because he is such a that whole family is such
a character. Like I went and saw, I went and
said hi to mom and dad before I went and
helped out the A team over on stall twenty seven.

Speaker 2 (15:15):
No twenty one car.

Speaker 3 (15:17):
Yeah, no, I know, stall twenty seven wasn't twenty seven,
it was twenty two.

Speaker 2 (15:21):
I was like, I'm not Apparently guy can't read. I'm sorry.

Speaker 3 (15:25):
But anyways, great, great dude, I mean, he was awesome.
But going back to my point, Jason and that whole
crew is just it's just a funny damn family. I mean,
I love Jason and I love that whole family. They're
they're awesome. They're doing a Make a Wish foundation letting
James work on their cars every weekend off.

Speaker 1 (15:45):
Dude. So the clutch is gone. What else happened?

Speaker 2 (15:50):
I mean, it was pretty uneventful. We just thaw, We
went through the motions and got ready for qualifying and
went out. We qualified, all right, I think we qualified
like seventeen. It wasn't the greatest, but then so in
pre race, the rule is in the Smart Tour rule
book black and white. There is no gray area. You

(16:11):
cannot put a jack under the car after qualifying before
the race. Well, lookie, here, we got fifteen minutes to
race time and there's a good old team jack under
the car jacked up. We're gonna fix this metal. It's
gonna fall off, it's gonna cut tires. It's a solid hole,

(16:34):
sheet metal door. It's not gonna fall off off the
north bar. I think it was bullshit. They put the
tech guy under there so they could look at it.
And from what you hear from the talk around everyone
that was right there on Pitt Road was that they
snuck a spring rubber in the left rear, but they
didn't get penalizes put to the back or two lap
penalty like Crumb got earlier in the year for doing

(16:55):
the same thing. So there was a lot of controversy
with that. The mayor of the dry definitely spoke his
mind and made the guy take his uh, take his
his headset off and say he was done for a
little bit. But then you saw that he put tuck
his tail between his legs and put it back on
later on. But so we had to deal with that.
That was a crazy controversy and just what was going

(17:17):
on and everyone yelling and hooting and hollering. Yeah, and
then I hired. Then I volunteered Randy to go help
a team out and uh, he'll tell you how that
experience was for the twenty laps that he was until
they blew up.

Speaker 3 (17:28):
Yeah, So I mean I didn't mind, Like I didn't,
I didn't care. It was something to do. We we
did our feature and stuff like that. So then I
went and helped out those guys after. And I mean,
I'm all for I'm all for helping people out, but
you guys, you gotta tell me where went. Like, if
I don't have a headset, I don't know when the

(17:50):
motherfucker coming in. So I'm sitting there and I'm taking
a swig in my powerade that had bought before that feature.
All of a sudden, this guy just slams into the pit.
I'm like, oh, and he just pointed the jack. I'm like, oh, nice,
heads up. Like so I jacked up the car and

(18:10):
did all that stuff for him and and.

Speaker 1 (18:13):
Then put it.

Speaker 3 (18:15):
I mean, we got through that, We got through the pit,
and I was just like, what the fuck.

Speaker 1 (18:19):
I was like, why couldn't it You all you guys
got headsets.

Speaker 3 (18:22):
You guys want me to run the damn jack fucking
tell me when he's coming in at he's fuck.

Speaker 1 (18:26):
So yeah that was that. I was like, I was like, okay,
and then yeah, no he uh.

Speaker 3 (18:33):
I think he dropped a lifter because that thing was
ticking and clacking, like even over the mods that were
still racing out there, you could hear them. It was
either a tick or knock in the motor. So I
just uh, I put the jack back up and then
I grabbed the two tires, but on top of the
pit box, went and shook his hands that well, nice

(18:57):
meat y'all, and then just kept just went, I'm out
my day, went over to Myers pit uh pit cart
and just hung out for a little bit until the
end of the race. But a lot of drivers, a
lot of drivers they said there was a lot of grip,
and it definitely looked like there was a lot of
grip out there. This was the first time for the
Stars Superstark do that. I always fucked this up. Sorry

(19:19):
bout Carlisle. I know you're gonna listen to this and
be like, fuck that guy.

Speaker 2 (19:24):
Oh and boo, complimentary coffee will save people in morning practice.
I'm telling you, here's your Star Tour sticker. Put it
on the windshield. And here's a complimentary coffee from from
uh from sheets or or whatever coffee places you want
to do here.

Speaker 3 (19:40):
Sheet slaps Sheets is awesome. I love that out here.
But uh yeah, so the Stars Superstark Tour, right, is
that right? Okay, we got it. I'm gonna get it down.
I'm gonna get it down. This was the first time
they've been at Sobo and like twenty something years or

(20:01):
eighteen years or something like that. I was talking to
old Biscuitville Fred Fred's awesome booze mom is absolutely an angel,
all that stuff.

Speaker 1 (20:10):
Love that whole family.

Speaker 3 (20:11):
It was great to finally meet kicking asphalt boot Carlisle
and his whole family and his cowboy boots look a
little tired. Gave him shit about that, but he's like,
I'm gonna go get some someday.

Speaker 1 (20:26):
But it was cool to meet them.

Speaker 3 (20:27):
But uh, feature time we rolled out from the reader
for the street for the streeter, and uh we we
got up to third at one. At one point, Weasel
was having a hell of a day. Uh uh he's
not a fan of the fifty three, uh but noses

(20:55):
so yeah, so we we got up to third one
at one point and then uh, we were we were
doing decent. I mean we we had a top five,
We had a top five car. We definitely didn't have
anything for the sixty, which was a beautiful car of
melting and and obviously Chris and in in the fifty three.

(21:17):
But man did we uh put some put some decent
laps together even with this with our rear end duck walking.
But at one point we uh we made contact with
the seven coming out of two, and then more contact
down the back stretch because it tightens up out of two.
I don't care what anybody says, it definitely tightens up

(21:40):
out of two. And uh we cut the right front down,
sailed off into three, collected the seven again.

Speaker 1 (21:50):
That was the end of our day.

Speaker 3 (21:51):
Broke we we we crushed the duck work, and we
probably knocked the rear end all the way the fuck
out this time. It definitely destroyed some passenger side door bars.
I mean there was cracks in the wells and everything.

Speaker 1 (22:05):
I mean we hit hard.

Speaker 3 (22:06):
I mean when you split a roll bar in two,
which is old ninety five and all that stuff three
two and three quarters or whatever they run. Now, when
you when you cracked that, I mean you hit hard.
You obviously put some into it, but we didn't wreck
anything like in the front, which is good. I mean

(22:28):
that we could see we destroyed the ductwork. I would
have cut the front nose right off of it and
sent them back out there, but who knows what the
how it would have handled the whole passenger side in
But uh, yeah, No, it was just a it's just
a shitty day. Within reason of that day, really, a
lot of people got torn up. I mean they all

(22:49):
piled up into one right after the lap, after we
were gone. Four guys got collected and that shit too,
but got it fixed. Destroyed four four tires, four rims.
So Albi has a hell of a fucking goddamn bar
tab going on right now. I blamed Austin. I was like,
you shouldn't have came down. It was fucking your fault. No,

(23:13):
but it was cool to see pork Chop and Uh
and uh and Alb and all those guys from from
up north and just to have him down there and
stuff like that.

Speaker 1 (23:23):
So it was I mean, it was a good day.

Speaker 3 (23:25):
And then we had the smart Tour feature, which was
pretty decent.

Speaker 2 (23:30):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (23:30):
Jason came alive late in the race, same with Bert
Bert had.

Speaker 2 (23:34):
The car to be all day. I'm sorry, oh he
hit the car, But I knew. I knew once we walked,
like once the race was going the way it was
shaping out, it was it was gonna be a Burt show.
He was gonna end up taking the lead. He was
gonna win. He said it going in that like he
had to win South Boston to be in that playoff.
And you know, not now, not now.

Speaker 3 (23:54):
I mean now we'll get we'll get there, but not now.

Speaker 2 (23:58):
But you could tell by the way how the way
they were working on the call morning and how they were,
what they were doing in practice, what they didn't qualifying,
all of it, just watching how they went through their day.
They were they were winning and then they were. They
weren't taking second, they weren't taking third like they were.

(24:18):
They were taking the checker. They were getting there there,
they were getting a nice little big check, big cardboard check,
and they were and they were going to there. They're
going for the championship of wokes Bro. That was their goal,
and they executed it perfectly. He was rim riding that
top side like a bastard, you know, and and he
made that work real well for the car.

Speaker 1 (24:36):
But if he had to go low and I didn't come,
I didn't get to watch some of the race until
passed the halfway part. It point, I think it was
like fifty to go.

Speaker 3 (24:47):
But if he had to go underneath someone, he could
fucking even though he was rim riding and stuff like that,
he was always taking the top on the restarts. If
he had to go underneath someone, he could put the
car wherever it was, wherever it needed to be, and
he just keep driving. Had old tires, he was still
picking up fucking spots rolling the bottom. So it's a
lot of grip there. There's a lot of fucking grip there.

(25:08):
I think Sobo is definitely a racy ass track and
and like I know, we have it on I Racing,
but it's nothing. It's not the same because there's no way.
It's way more banked in real life than the eye
Racing scan has it.

Speaker 2 (25:24):
Because I feel there's a little wider on I Racing too,
Like turn two is tight, now you you you said
like you don't care who say this tight? Like it's tight?

Speaker 1 (25:32):
Guys, Like it's yeah, yeah.

Speaker 2 (25:33):
If you're too wide coming out of two, you're basically banging,
you know, for us. We're banging bars and tires coming
out like you're if you're three wide, you reckon. And
they proved that.

Speaker 1 (25:41):
I proved it. They proved it that way.

Speaker 2 (25:43):
Cash. Yeah, Cash got three wide with some guys and
he rode the wall all the way down the backstretch.

Speaker 3 (25:47):
I feel bad for Landon Huffman because he didn't even
get a chance. He had some decent speed and qualifying
in practice. He he got like twenty laps into the
feature before he bounced off.

Speaker 2 (25:58):
Often drove it in so deep that he did like
the Thompson where you drive low and let it slide up.

Speaker 1 (26:03):
And yeah, they just just kept hitting.

Speaker 3 (26:05):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, So that was that was shitty to
see for I mean, it wasn't even there wasn't even
that many laps into the laps into the race, and
I watched, I watched it happen, I watched it bounce.
I was like, oh, he ain't gonna say that and
just sailed up, which sucks for Landing.

Speaker 1 (26:23):
And all those guys.

Speaker 2 (26:25):
Yeah, and they said they might not even make me
Willikesboro because of all the damage.

Speaker 1 (26:28):
So yeah, which that sucks.

Speaker 2 (26:29):
You know, he can't go and run at one of
the coolest tracks for modified.

Speaker 1 (26:33):
I can't wait to go there. I can't wait to
go there.

Speaker 2 (26:36):
Oh dude, it's like I say, modified. You know, I'm
very big on modified. I like them over all race cars. Ye,
Willsboro's made for him, like it just create the new asphalt,
the old asphalt, it doesn't matter. They fly, there's multiple grooves.
It's awesome to watch the modified there and I'm I'm excited.
We get Smart Tour, we get Cars Tour, we get

(26:58):
the pro late models, and then Sunday more modified bitches.
You can watch Bonsignor and Si beat the ship out
of each other for the championship. Yeah or not?

Speaker 3 (27:06):
Well, they got two rare grace before the championship, and
then we get to make the three hour ride to
Oh it's it's only an hour and a half, okay,
So we make the hour and a half drive to
watch and watch them beat the ship out of each
other at uh at Martinsville as well. So I know
Matt Kimball's coming down for North walks Bro. He's gonna

(27:27):
join you guys in the Smart Tour. So that's cool
to see uh Andy Seiss and all those guys are
doing wheeling over at wilcuse I got a hold of
them today. I've yet to hear back from uh see
if they need help. But nonetheless, I mean, Sobo was
Sobo was fun. I mean, getting sunburnt in the middle
of October is definitely different for anybody that's lived in

(27:48):
New Hampshire for good amount of their life to come
down here and have that going on and doing all
that stuff.

Speaker 1 (27:55):
So Bert Myers wins it.

Speaker 3 (27:58):
I mean he was clear by four by the time,
uh by the time we got towards the last lap,
and for some fucking reason, car cut off on the
ninety nine and I guess yeah, it literally was about
then in the fucking race and then car cut off.

(28:20):
That means that the car just absolutely just stops dead
and then all of.

Speaker 2 (28:25):
A sudden turn back on the left right cost came out.

Speaker 1 (28:28):
Crazy. How that fucking happens?

Speaker 2 (28:30):
I wonder where his kill switches right next to where
you think it's the same color as his his radio
button and he just missed it up with his left
thumb and his right thumb. Yeah, you know, forget which thumbs? What?

Speaker 1 (28:41):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 3 (28:42):
When you try to talk to your talk to your
guys on the pit crew you gotta like hold the
button and then twist it to shut it off, you
know what I mean, turn it on so you can talk.
So I totally get it. But yeah, so that was
that was That was a racy. That was a racy ending.
I'm glad Burt didn't get fucked out of that because

(29:04):
that would have been controversy on top of the other
controversy that happened after the fucking fact.

Speaker 2 (29:10):
Hey, how many pace laps you think we did?

Speaker 3 (29:12):
Oh my god, Oh my god. I fucking forgot about that.
So the amount of pace laps that the Smart Tour did.
I thought we were gonna be doing twenty four to
seven hour fucking only four hours of fucking sobo I.

Speaker 2 (29:26):
Always thought it was just we do ninety nine laps
of green and ninety nine laps castion. Just how that's
how that was supposed to be. It is how it's
about all you. They've said it in these like bulletins
are spotder gets and like they're gonna try to make
it better and make it better. Well, then we sit
there and we do ten laps fucking caution laps. You're
only supposed to allow three for when when you go
into the pits, but like they were still they were

(29:47):
allowing like five and nobody was in pitt road. We're
just sitting near rolling laps, wasting gas, you know, and
and it was it doesn't make sense. And then there
was one point we had a caution towards the end
around lap eighty five. I don't know which eighty five
because they stopped using the scoreboard after a while for
the lapse. But one of those times we did five

(30:07):
laps of fucking pacing and all the drivers are on
the radios and the fans are all wondering, like what
the hell is going on. Well, the guy that's supposed
to do the green flag for the to open pit road,
who was sitting there staring at the grass looking at butterflies,
like apparently race control got out, was like hey, like
are the pits open or what? And he's like, oh shit, Like, man, like,

(30:30):
get on top of you. They just need to give
me a damn fucking official uniforms. At least I can
fucking know when the open pits.

Speaker 3 (30:39):
Staring at the cress looking at butterflies, how good?

Speaker 2 (30:42):
Ask what color it was, like, was it a prophet
or what? So?

Speaker 3 (30:50):
Yeah, twenty four hours sobo was happening and it was.
Uh but all in all, man, that place is beautiful.
The racing was great and all that stuff. There's a
lot of controversy with it and everything. I mean they
cut for the four tires of Bert's thing. I mean,
I know the Myers family. It's a big family. So

(31:12):
I saw all those guys and then you look outside
the tech shed and there's Ryan Newman, Cashman.

Speaker 1 (31:17):
You got Tommy Baldwin, just got you got Tommy Baldwin
fucking yelling like the son of a bitch because they
shut the doors for two minutes and uh, but everybody's around.

Speaker 2 (31:28):
The tex shit is that what happens all the time,
only when there's controversy. Last time, so the last time
we had this, Lofton won and they wanted to pull
all top three motors and Lofton's team was like nah
nah nah nah. So they closed the tech shed and
had to meet. It was when it was with Hershman too,
and like they ended up coming like you're pulling the

(31:49):
fucking top three motors and we're going like are you're they?
My thing is, if you're in tech and you don't
want your motor poll the and you're getting fucking que
There shouldn't be no discussion on it shouldn't be a vote.
You're in tech for a reason. But I don't think
they needed to go as crazy as they did it,
Like take our tires, y'all, leave our tires. You make
us leave the Hoosier tire like our race tires at

(32:12):
Hoosier at the trailer until practice is done. Then you
can go get your tires. Then when you go to
the scales, like you only have time to put the
tires on and then roll your car to scales, you
don't have to How can we sit here and soak
tires or anything like that in that timeframe, Like you can't.
There's no there's no way. So then so they did that.

(32:32):
They checked radios and harnesses for I guess traction control
because you know, I guess people don't know how to
just like use their you know, eggshell under the throttle
and just they can't fucking do it like like Burt can.
And then they checked his heads and they they they
tried to say it was a misinterpretation of the rules. Well,
the guy on the Smart Tour, the director Chris Williams,

(32:55):
he was like, they didn't do nothing wrong. I don't
even know what you guys were talking about. But then
he goes and changes the damn rules on us, and
now we have five guys going for the title instead
of the smart three, which is supposed to be the
top three. So they just adding Danny bone In and
Ryan Newman. Me personally, I think it's because they wanted
to get Ryan Newman in there because it's he's a
household NASCAR name and that's what they want. They're trying

(33:16):
to promote that, you know, the NASCAR guy against Luke Baldwin,
against Carson lofton Bert Myers, and then they just add
they add Danny bone in because he's been there all year.
He's been he's he's won races. He just we've had
a lot of the guys like Bert not being in there.
He's been a shoeing all year. But we got wrecked Carraway,

(33:36):
we got you know, we've gotten in, they've gotten in.
Res Bone's been in. I think the same rex as
Bert too, so you know, but it's just kind of
to me, it's bullshit that we're just gonna randomly make
these rules as we go along, Like let's ask add
two more cars to it, you know, like that it's
a top three. Like that's like Nascar at the end

(33:57):
of the race, if Chase Elly didn't make it, he
was ninth, and all of a sudden, they're like, oh, well,
we're gonna put nine guys in this last round for
the four you know, like you can't do that.

Speaker 1 (34:07):
You know, Logano boy would have got in if they
did that.

Speaker 2 (34:09):
Yeah, well, hey, NASCAR, can you help a boy out?
I'm on suicide watch unless you change it. But but no,
I mean they can't just change rules as you go.
You have a rule for a reason. You fucking stick
to it just because the guy that you wanted to
be in didn't get in. Like now we're gonna change
the rules, and it's gonna change the whole outlook of

(34:31):
Wilkesboro now in my opinion.

Speaker 1 (34:33):
Well yeah, because if one of the guys that gets in,
it's off the top five.

Speaker 2 (34:37):
So what Oh, it's whoever finishes the head, whoever finishes
ahead of the rest of them, like it wins the title.

Speaker 3 (34:42):
So last shootout it's like how they do it at
SEACONK and stuff like that, and it's like the drive
for the Cup and stuff like that. I get it,
but like, like what what what was the characteristics of
them getting in and over other people that were there?

Speaker 1 (34:59):
You know what I mean? Does that make sense?

Speaker 2 (35:01):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (35:02):
There was no nothing has came out so I mean
it came out today, I said, I posted it.

Speaker 2 (35:08):
Yeah, So.

Speaker 1 (35:11):
What is the criteria that they made for full for it?

Speaker 2 (35:17):
He just said. He just said, oh, we're gonna have
five for the title for the Championship raisings seat of three.
That's all. He said, We're gonna add two more guys
to it.

Speaker 1 (35:24):
Wow.

Speaker 2 (35:24):
Didn't say why. There's no reason.

Speaker 1 (35:27):
This is what makes people sit there.

Speaker 2 (35:29):
And Smart Tour, as as as our spotter said, hasn't
been fun in the last few years because of the officials,
the lack of officiating, the really bad officiating, and I
mean and the race director has been a mess all
fucking years.

Speaker 3 (35:43):
It's been a couple okay, but you gotta understand, like
Rome wasn't built in a day and they're getting it,
but come on, play the Devil's advocate a little bit here.
I get what you guys are going through, and I
understand it, trust me, I get it.

Speaker 1 (35:57):
But I mean it's still it's still fresh. So they
have time to nip that stupid ship in the butt
because that ship around the tech ship.

Speaker 3 (36:08):
Just because there's a whole report about the doors being
shut and stuff like that. Everybody was like yelling about
how it needs to be shut, and I was like, well, what.

Speaker 2 (36:20):
It's supposed to be open for anybody to see. That's
kind of the point.

Speaker 3 (36:23):
Well, I get, well, if that's the case, and don't
put the winner in the shed, put them right out
on the jack stands like everybody else was.

Speaker 1 (36:30):
Everybody's gonna be. I just it's it's hard to it's
it's hard to put a thing on it. So, like
I get, but like if you look at the top
thing text is done behind closed doors for NASCAR. For Nascar,
I never.

Speaker 2 (36:50):
Thought I thought it was just right. I was like,
right in the garage area.

Speaker 3 (36:53):
They go to a whole fucking tech ship, get laser
and all that ship, make sure that they pay well
post race, but they don't do it in public.

Speaker 1 (37:01):
They shut the doors and they.

Speaker 2 (37:03):
The only thing they do is like, hey, here's the
part that was.

Speaker 3 (37:05):
But it's totally it's totally different. We can't really fucking
like compare the two things. And I get it, and
like I get the people's frustrations. I mean, I'm still
holding out because they got they got Bobby Labonte racing it,
they got a bunch of talent, they got the Baldwins
racing it, they got the Meyers racing it, and that's
that's a that's like they have a lot of household

(37:28):
names and a lot of guys showing up for that
type of stuff. I mean it, the promotion for it
and the sponsors that are are within it, it's it's
a good fucking thing, you know what I mean. It's
a good tour down here. They just have to get
everybody on the same fucking page. If it's black and
white that you can't have a jack underneath the car

(37:50):
after qualifying, then you cannot allow it. And if they
do do it, and you do it to someone else,
then it's the same thing.

Speaker 1 (37:59):
For that person that keep it consistent. Well, that's that's all.

Speaker 3 (38:03):
And we've beat that fucking dead horse that that thing's
on fucking life support right now.

Speaker 2 (38:08):
I swear to god, I'm about to put a bullets
like beating it.

Speaker 3 (38:14):
As long as they stay consistent, no one can bitch
about it. As long as you're treating everybody the same
fucking way, because everybody's buying the same pit pass, everybody's
hauling the same fucking car, the same amount of time
open trailer or a fucking stacker. Everybody's buying the same tire,
same fuel, the same fucking everything, And as long as

(38:35):
you stay consistent with everything.

Speaker 1 (38:37):
Then you you just do that.

Speaker 3 (38:39):
But I think it's a good thing that they're I
still think it's a great fucking tour for down here
because it's pretty much the only modified tour they got
down here for the most part. So I mean, you
gotta look at it as devil advocate and stuff like that.
And I don't get the five though. That doesn't make sense.

(39:00):
Can't wait until the end of the year to do that.

Speaker 1 (39:02):
You can't. It doesn't make it won't It won't make sense.

Speaker 2 (39:06):
It still doesn't make sense to me why they bring
back a green white checker when we're going to the
checkered and the dude stops, just just roll throw the checker.
Race is fucking over. He's done, Like he finishes where
if he got the car back rolling, then he's the
last carnalie.

Speaker 3 (39:21):
Like no, it was to the white flag. We weren't
even know we were at the white flag.

Speaker 2 (39:25):
Bird crew was already running, like they already started going
towards the victory lane.

Speaker 1 (39:29):
When they in the costume, it was it was on
the white flag. It's not it's not Nascar, it's it
was on the white flag.

Speaker 2 (39:38):
The checker. Now I was like, damn, like that sucks.

Speaker 3 (39:41):
It was on the white flag. And that's when that's
when he stopped out in four.

Speaker 1 (39:49):
And then.

Speaker 3 (39:52):
Yeah, so then they had the green white checker, which
was fucking good.

Speaker 1 (39:56):
So it was a good race. I mean, that's probably
why they did it.

Speaker 3 (39:59):
I mean it was good. It was a good race
all at all. I mean I had a lot of
fun there. I have no as a person that isn't
in the series like you and and all the teams,
I can't really sit here and say like I have
a dog in the fight and stuff like that. But
as a race fan, I can say, at a point,

(40:19):
if you have, if you have all year, it says
three people are going to the final, you guys gotta
fucking fight for it, and everybody knows that. And then
what the race going into the final race? Correct, Wilkes
is the final race? Right, we're adding five, So what
makes what makes Newman and I mean Bone won a race.

Speaker 2 (40:43):
I get Bone, but it's not that's not the thing.
That's not They going off points? Are they going off?

Speaker 1 (40:50):
What?

Speaker 2 (40:50):
Yeah, they're they're going off because Newman. It was Newman
and Bert had to win, Yeah, to be in the
final three. Bone was third. So if Bert won, he
kicked Bone out because of the points. My thing is,
if Bert didn't win, say Newman won, so he got
into three, there still been five. So that's what's bullshit

(41:13):
about it is it's not it wouldn't be consistent. You know,
like I I get it. You know, they want the
big name in there. They want that, you know, for
the promotion, and all that.

Speaker 1 (41:24):
Promotion is good that you don't have to have the
fucking gimmicks.

Speaker 2 (41:28):
Well, they're making a gimmick for some fucking reason.

Speaker 3 (41:30):
That's that's my point on it is like, la, it
feels like it's a gimmick. Like we have that race
coming up that's a late model race, and they're doing
this bullshit of like if you registered early and all
that stuff, which is like other news after this, we'll
get to that.

Speaker 1 (41:45):
After this.

Speaker 3 (41:46):
We have so much to cover up because we haven't
done this in a while Milk Bowl was great. We
watched the Milk Bowl. Tom's the World Series got wrapped up.
So but going back to the things, like their promotion
is good. They got shitty coolers on things they got
They got Pasmatics sponsoring cars and the whole series, which
that's its own fucking thing right there. I don't get

(42:09):
I mean whatever.

Speaker 2 (42:10):
I mean. Citrus Save sponsors Burt's car, but they also
spot but they're every Yeah, they're also on every single
car because they're one of the contingencies. Okay, so that,
but they also sponsor Burt's car and they do the
restart zoning the cone.

Speaker 1 (42:23):
Yeah, okay, so like.

Speaker 2 (42:24):
They're the sponsors kind of go around.

Speaker 3 (42:26):
And so they have good sponsorship. Yeah, they don't need
the gimmicks. They have people that show up. They have
if it's a big race. I mean, they had what
twenty eight cars yesterday, which is good. That was more
than Wheeling had up here.

Speaker 2 (42:38):
And they're talking we're gonna mean, we're gonna be They
were saying something we might have like in the thirties
for Wilkesboro next week, especially the tour there, the Wheeling tour.
You know, some of these guys are gonna want that
extra hunt outs.

Speaker 3 (42:48):
Practice dude plus one for the that's true, you know,
I mean you got the wheeling guys that can bring
an extra car.

Speaker 1 (42:54):
You can bring no same rules.

Speaker 2 (42:56):
If you go on the smart our website, the rule
package literally says it's the wheeling modified to rules.

Speaker 1 (43:00):
I get.

Speaker 3 (43:01):
Why would they use their wheeling car that they're gonna
go race for on Sunday if they can bring an
extra those those teams are loaded enough to be I mean,
I'd be surprised if Emmerlin wasn't gonna run it.

Speaker 1 (43:13):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (43:14):
I think I know you said, wasn't Kimball running it?

Speaker 3 (43:16):
Kimball's coming down to run you guys, but he's not
running wheeling.

Speaker 2 (43:20):
Well maybe if he, oh, maybe we can work something now.
He needs a tire changer for the wheeling race. You
know he's got racing. Wheeling can change, yeah, change his mind.
It's not that it's money. He'll be fine.

Speaker 3 (43:36):
Was coming down with a modified on an open trailer.
It's my salute to this guy for fucking doing that that.

Speaker 2 (43:41):
Hey man, just cut some more wood, you'll be all right.

Speaker 1 (43:43):
That's great promotion.

Speaker 2 (43:44):
Three trees. That's like four tires, ain't it.

Speaker 1 (43:49):
It's it's not that easy.

Speaker 3 (43:50):
So yeah, they're coming down for the smart so that
you can have plus one to that. So there's if
we get everybody that we had yesterday, including Cowboy who
I was helping out. That's twenty nine cars starting at
Northwolk as well. So they have a good series. That's
what I'm saying, is like they don't need the ship
like that.

Speaker 1 (44:14):
So I mixed. We didn't go out the Tri County after,
but so.

Speaker 3 (44:18):
Bert one, there's a bunch of fucking controversy after only
the only the fucking driver's crew family and all that
shit should be in detection. I mean not even that
they should just be around driver crew chief in there,
but it's the family. I mean when I looked in
and it's like all they're cutting tires out and stuff
like that, it was just like you see the report

(44:39):
from what what's to give him a shout out?

Speaker 1 (44:44):
Who who covered that? That was these lug nuts.

Speaker 3 (44:47):
He he did that and he put up the post
that they there was controversy because they shut the doors
for a second. I don't know why they shut the door,
whatever it is, and it just stirred the pot a
little bit and all that stuff. So I mean, but yeah, no,
Soba was fun. I got a sun burnt. We went
out the County Line.

Speaker 1 (45:05):
County Line Raceway for their their weight fest, their Weightfest.
Well we were gonna get the fucking took fucking thirty
minutes to do two plement two perillant preliminary. Yeah, they're preliminaries.

Speaker 3 (45:19):
I always I was trying to say something different there,
preliminaries be mains to go.

Speaker 2 (45:25):
Oh, let's look before that fact, we got there a
half hour after features were supposed to start. Yeah, and
we did not. We did not see a car hit
the track till nine to forty five yep.

Speaker 3 (45:38):
So yeah, so they're doing a little bit of like
fan stuff, but it was.

Speaker 2 (45:43):
So long, Like you guys, have a fucking time on
your sheet says eight thirty features start. So in our
eyes it's a two hour eye from South Boston. We
were like, all right, well skip the b mains will
be there right for the main show. I've done this
with Fayetteville too, in the same fucking way. You get
there and nothing's going on. Every everyone was just lounging around,
like it doesn't make sense. We're not trying to get

(46:05):
the races in. We're sitting here. I mean, granted, great
for the kids to do their little led juice box
division stuff, but at the same time, it's nine o'clock,
y'all should be running features. You should have done this early.
We should have got stuff rolling earlier. And then to
the fact of having these same four fucking back markers
for the races we watched crash into each other every

(46:26):
time or single car spin because they couldn't figure it out.
Like man, just it was just it was frustrating. We
were running four laps, hitting cautions. Every four laps someone
was spinning out, someone was and it was always it
never really wasn't much like it wasn't ever front markers,
it wasn't in the front of the pack. It wasn't

(46:46):
off great racing. It was like one dude would just
get would get a little sideways and in the back
and he'd spin himself out. You know. One guy stopped
on pit like stop trying to get to the pit exit,
got a caution, then just rode around the track, then
went to pitt exit. You know, it's just a lot
of stupid shit that happened, and it just it didn't

(47:08):
make it as fun like we we we, I mean,
we were dead tired so like and then we we
were like, all right, we'll watch u cars for they
made one damn lap and the dude turn the thing
all the way left, never lifted and.

Speaker 1 (47:19):
Pounded the wall.

Speaker 2 (47:21):
We looked at each other, We're like, no, we're fucking done.

Speaker 3 (47:23):
Dude, fucking fucking it reminded me of the oh Man.
What was those things called back in the day, What
the fuck it huntson? Motherfucker the thunderlights Man, the Thunderlight
Division at Hudson Speedway back in fucking holy shit two
thousand ten. Dude, fucking that motherfucker reminded me of Cody

(47:46):
Parker that just kept fucking turning the wheel and hammering
it like he had nothing, going full lock.

Speaker 2 (47:51):
With fullock left, never lifted, never hit the brake, and
just went straight.

Speaker 3 (47:55):
So when dirt raising on the front wheel drive, you
just try to sling the damn thing because when you
hit that gas is just gonna pull you back straight.
It don't matter anybody that's ran in front wheel drive,
that's what happens. And this motherfucker probably never fucking ran
dirt in his life.

Speaker 1 (48:10):
Because that motherfucker went in.

Speaker 3 (48:11):
There like like he was a not Halloween haller and
just went straight.

Speaker 1 (48:18):
I mean, he had time, he totally forgot about that.

Speaker 4 (48:24):
He had the tires cranked. He definitely gave it his
best shot. That motherfucker harpooned that damn wall in four.
Oh my god, I saw that. I was like, it's
time to go. I'm not sitting here.

Speaker 1 (48:35):
But it was like eleven o'clock, dude, I mean we
walked out.

Speaker 2 (48:39):
It was eleven thirty. It was eleven, and we only
we only ran three out of six features or something
like that fourth features. We were just starting a fourth
feature out of six and they still had another fifty
lapper and another like thirty lapper. Yeah, and like man,
people were leaving after the modified race, Like a bunch
of people left because it's like, dude, this is taking
so god long. Yeah, Like it was crazy, Like I

(49:02):
almost grew a full beer. And if anyone knows me,
he knows I don't grow facial hair worth that damn outworth,
only the goatee because I'm the goat.

Speaker 3 (49:14):
But I mean, I mean, what was that What was
that big race that we had which that was there
the one that was well.

Speaker 2 (49:22):
We ought to see the Steel Block bandits yeah, do
their fifty lap big show. That's what WIT shout out
to Benji. I met him at Fateville a few years ago.
That man was cooking and booking, but we couldn't get
a fucking long run to save our lives so we
could pass the guy, and.

Speaker 1 (49:35):
It was all fucking back markers.

Speaker 3 (49:37):
They're literally just giving the guy that's leading the damn
races the damn win because those cars take forever to
get going. But once they get going, Benji was half
a track gaining on that motherfucker and then fucking caution again,
then a caution again, and then the caution again, and
then they're running three laps, and it takes more than
three laps for those guys to get going. So by

(49:59):
the time I only check your flag was done. I'm
glad that they waited until after all the features do
post race, because man, we've.

Speaker 1 (50:06):
Been gone after Benji.

Speaker 3 (50:08):
I've been like, dude, it's fucking it's ten o'clock. We
got to get out of here, like eleven thirty.

Speaker 1 (50:14):
We left there.

Speaker 3 (50:15):
We only watched two features, two preliminaries. We watched the
Kids race, which was fine, that's okay and stuff like that,
and like it was just caution field and we ate
some dirt.

Speaker 1 (50:27):
That was cool.

Speaker 2 (50:28):
Got some dirt in our beer.

Speaker 3 (50:29):
Yeah, yeah, have some salt in your beer a little bit.
But uh no, it's it was cool. I mean that
place is its own thing.

Speaker 1 (50:38):
I mean.

Speaker 3 (50:41):
They got barrel fires all around the infield.

Speaker 2 (50:43):
You know. He talks about a good pisser at Sobo. Man,
you could look at your you could look at your
neighbor at this one. It was so short.

Speaker 3 (50:53):
Yeah, James like put your head down when you're taking
a piss or whatever the fuck. He's like, these bathroom
stalls are to your shoulders and he was I was like,
I was like, I was literally like just knocking on
doors because I wasn't looking.

Speaker 1 (51:05):
I was looking at the wall and just hit the
door like occupied. So I just went all the way
to the end.

Speaker 3 (51:09):
But yeah, man, it was we we've been roughing it
the past couple of days, uh, to our own damn fault.
I mean we slept in all day today. We watched NASCAR.
Logano's out, So that's good. That's a win for America
right there. Hopefully Denny doesn't make it that'd be another win.

Speaker 1 (51:28):
Uh. But no, like we haven't done this for a while.
We had a lot of we had a lot.

Speaker 3 (51:32):
Of shit there happened, and yeah, we packed up, we
headed out. It was over for being up there, and
I was just done being up there. I've been talking
about coming down here for six years. I finally pulled
the trigger. I'm thankful for George for giving me the
shot out over at brunt Hols.

Speaker 1 (51:49):
To go and work for those places.

Speaker 3 (51:51):
I met a lot of fucking people, James, and a
short amount of fucking time, you know what I mean.
So it's it's cool as shit, and everybody loves race
down here for the most part. And got to see
old pork Chop and met Jamie and Patrick and saw
alb be grumpy again and it was awesome. Telling me

(52:12):
how he's gonna quit racing, but I'll see him in
a couple of years when he does again.

Speaker 1 (52:18):
Aunt was there in Spiritle.

Speaker 2 (52:27):
Says I'm too good because I do modified stuff. But
he can't even show up to a combo race. Prick.

Speaker 1 (52:34):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (52:35):
So we go help out Patrick and Albie for Hickory.
November ninth is that race. So we'll be out there
for that, and then we'll be back up in New
Hampshire for Thanksgiving, go see my boy and enjoy some
family stuff and do all that stuff, and then come
back down here and go to work and just get

(52:56):
to work and start chasing the stuff that I wanted
to do. And I appreciate everybody that reached out and
stuff like that, and everybody that, uh that I that
I made friendships with up in New Hampshire. I mean,
I meant, this is the first time I missed the
Milk Bowl in fucking seven years.

Speaker 1 (53:14):
That sucked. That was a great race.

Speaker 3 (53:17):
Through and through and good to see Marcel Gravel pick
up the Milk Bowl for this year. And now they
have the big raceover at Oxford coming up, and they
got the Halloween Hawler and the Hudson Hippo stuff, and
I mean, we're gonna still be paying attention up there
for for all you guys next year. I mean, nothing's

(53:39):
gonna fucking change. We're gonna cover fucking everything at this point.
Jesus Christ.

Speaker 1 (53:43):
So hopefully James can get on the schedule so he's
not spotty, but at least when now that we live together,
he can't tell me he ain't gonna be showing up
for fucking podcasts. You know what I mean? Bitch, you
hear me?

Speaker 2 (53:56):
I guess you hear me. Know you guys can't see
because they don't have video. Yeah, but he got a
gun in my head right now for I'm to talk. Guys.
Help help, So.

Speaker 1 (54:10):
This is gonna be our first and last episode.

Speaker 2 (54:14):
Fucking Hey, dude, dude, I can read the serial number
and it says Dale. But uh uh okay, finally he
bribed me with beer. That's what happened exactly.

Speaker 1 (54:29):
We went got out of fucking whatever this back end.

Speaker 2 (54:32):
Nine pints of sixteen ounces of the middle Light.

Speaker 1 (54:35):
Baby. I wanted to grab bush Light, but he brings
me to a gas station that only is bush Light Ice.

Speaker 2 (54:40):
Hey, bush Light Ice in a fucking bulletproof window. Dude,
thanks great that. I shout out to Resco, mart On
Garner or one Baby. You guys are my favorite.

Speaker 3 (54:51):
That's the funniest thing about like North Carolina is like
you don't know what gas station you go to because
some gas stations it's nice. It's it's like it changes
like every other mile marker.

Speaker 1 (55:05):
You got different gas station.

Speaker 2 (55:06):
It's one looks like it's run down. One looks brand new,
one looks like it's ran by a bunch of monkeys,
and the other one looks like it's a whole zoo.
Like it's crazy. But no, I well I go to
there because of work. But they are they got the
actually the cheapest singles you can single, beers you can
buy and around here.

Speaker 1 (55:23):
Oh look at that.

Speaker 2 (55:26):
Central going or dollar like these little pints. Yeah, they're
a dollar a beer. You can buy a six of
them cheaper than a six pack. It's kind of nice.

Speaker 1 (55:34):
There you go.

Speaker 2 (55:35):
My favorite part about the end of work days.

Speaker 3 (55:37):
So my point being was like, it's just it's just
like the geographic of alshit changes out here just goes
like every.

Speaker 1 (55:47):
Other fucking ten miles. I'm like, oh, it's different.

Speaker 2 (55:49):
Well he didn't know that. Like the way we were
in South Boston to go to to go to County Line,
there ain't no easy highway there, so like we were
all back road macro boom.

Speaker 1 (56:00):
No. I was fucking drinking after the I was drinking
after the races, after the check of flag. Flew to
the general manager that I talked to a cell Boston.
It was after the check and flag, I get it.

Speaker 3 (56:15):
And then this guy's like he's in a fucking little
shifter cart driving up there.

Speaker 1 (56:20):
He can't just be easy.

Speaker 3 (56:21):
I should have just I just should have just blown
my motor all over his fucking dash and made him
fucking just do it, just deal with it, because we
just ate food. And James's like, you want to go
on a roller coaster?

Speaker 1 (56:31):
I gotcha. So then we're just ragged all and all
the way to fucking.

Speaker 3 (56:38):
I felt like a prom date for fox sake, getting
rashed around and ship.

Speaker 2 (56:42):
You're my weekly prod. Now you're down here watching race
You're you watching down here watching race cars and me
were driving race cars on the way there.

Speaker 1 (56:50):
Definitely do not hire James to drive your car anywhere.

Speaker 2 (56:53):
I'm a great race car driver. I'm a horrible street
car driver.

Speaker 1 (56:56):
That's gonna change.

Speaker 2 (56:57):
It's a street it's a street takeover whenever I get
behind the wheel. Hey man, we're practicing rally, all right.
I want to be Travis Pastrana.

Speaker 3 (57:03):
This kid almost put us out in the woods, out
in the middle of fucking nowhere.

Speaker 2 (57:07):
That wasn't close to the left, James, Oh that wasn't
that wasn't enough. And the rumble strips.

Speaker 1 (57:14):
Help, Yeah, there was no rumble strips on the road
we were on.

Speaker 2 (57:17):
Oh you could feel them. He just couldn't hear them.

Speaker 3 (57:21):
Okay, anyway, you know, yeah, we would have felt all
those fucking pine trees, the fucking pond you almost put
us in, and the fucking colvert launched off of.

Speaker 1 (57:30):
Oh, it would have been fucking fishing, that's for sure.

Speaker 2 (57:32):
Fishing.

Speaker 1 (57:35):
We're gonna get wet.

Speaker 2 (57:36):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (57:37):
But no, like uh, A lot of stuff happened up north.

Speaker 3 (57:40):
I missed, I missed the Milk Bowl, just missed Johnson
World Series, whichy all motherfuckers looked cold. If it makes
you guys feel better, it was a nice seventy seven
degrees today.

Speaker 1 (57:49):
I didn't.

Speaker 3 (57:49):
I think I broke a sweat today, honestly, So that
was cool. But uh, yeah, no, it was.

Speaker 1 (57:55):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (57:56):
I'm gonna miss you guys up there, and I'm definitely
gonna come visit and all that stuff, and I'm definitely
gonna root for you guys from down here. I mean,
nothing fucking changes. I just didn't want to be up
there no more. I can't do the winners up there,
and everybody knew that. And I love the racing up there,
don't get me wrong, and I just got sick of
being up there and going nowhere and just wanted to

(58:16):
go do stuff that I enjoyed doing. And I haven't
smiled from Son up to sun. I mean, guys, I
worked from I worked from Son up to sundown, and
I have a smile on my face all day. And
people like, oh, you're gonna get burnt out.

Speaker 2 (58:31):
Breaking news. Logano's in Buysy in now they added a driver.
I'm just kidding, Alex. Alex Bowman got dqued for being
too light, So Alex Bowman is officially eliminated. Joey Logano's
in Fuck you Alex Bowman fans.

Speaker 3 (58:45):
pH they added another driver.

Speaker 2 (58:51):
But uh yeah, I said it right on the tweet.
Taking notes from the smart tour, we have added a driver.

Speaker 1 (59:01):
Anyways.

Speaker 3 (59:05):
Yeah no, Bob pop ass. Yeah too light? How the
fuck do you be too light?

Speaker 2 (59:12):
The weight probably fell out the car when he shipped
fucking Dylan.

Speaker 1 (59:16):
Maybe, oh yeah, that's true.

Speaker 2 (59:17):
Or you know, when you're not supposed to hit the
fucking turtles, he probably jammed the little little nut and
the bolt loose.

Speaker 1 (59:23):
Yeah. I don't get it, but uh, like I said, like,
I haven't, I haven't been happy like this in a
while and like it was just time to go.

Speaker 3 (59:32):
And uh, like I said, we're gonna be up to
visit during during the race season, so you guys will
still see us.

Speaker 1 (59:39):
I mean see me. James thin't gonna come. No, he's
just poor.

Speaker 2 (59:45):
Only there's a toris I go up for to rises
and that's really it. Or if someone wants me to
drive their car, I mean I'll do it.

Speaker 3 (59:50):
Probably just invite this kid to come help you all
out and uh.

Speaker 2 (59:54):
Fast tire changer that doesn't get loose wheels.

Speaker 1 (59:57):
Yeah, he's just he's just that's all they allow him
to do.

Speaker 2 (01:00:04):
I get to push the car too. I've started in
the car a couple of times.

Speaker 1 (01:00:07):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:00:07):
You at least to get to touch the car. That's
that's good. Nothing big, you know what I mean. They
don't really want to overdo it.

Speaker 2 (01:00:15):
Make a wish. One allows me to do certain things.

Speaker 1 (01:00:19):
It's a tax right off.

Speaker 3 (01:00:21):
But like I said, like happy for all my all
my friends that won championships this year. Richie Helker Junr
won a championship over at uh uh se kunk uh.

Speaker 1 (01:00:32):
He did that while I was on my right on
my ride down.

Speaker 3 (01:00:35):
So we we haven't done a podcast in fucking months
because I've been just not my same way and now
we're starting to get there and stuff like that.

Speaker 1 (01:01:07):
And you see some characters.

Speaker 3 (01:01:09):
I mean, we almost hit some guy in the middle
of the road today because he was asking for money.

Speaker 1 (01:01:13):
That was different.

Speaker 3 (01:01:14):
So we're just trying to get to a custom down here.

It happens sometimes. But uh, it was cool to meet
Boo and in his whole family and the.

Speaker 3 (01:07:22):
Kicking asphalt guys, and uh, seeing everybody from up north
come down and just meet the people. And it's just
gonna continue to grow. And we're gonna just keep fucking
building this shit down here because there's a lot of
racing that we can go and cover with no problem
at all. Now, So I ain't gonta worry about fucking snow.
I ain't gonna worry about six to eight months of

(01:07:43):
fucking winter no more. Oh maybe maybe a month. I
gotta worry about that type of shit.

Speaker 2 (01:07:50):
Man, that don't snow around here.

Speaker 1 (01:07:51):
Yeah, it don't snow. Don't gotta worry about that.

Speaker 2 (01:07:53):
Might be cold as all hell, but that's all right.

Speaker 1 (01:07:56):
Yeah, No, shops heated. I'm good. Just where to Jacketson,
go to the track, the shops heated. We're good.

Speaker 2 (01:08:03):
I'm gonna go to the track. You can't really bringing
get a heaterd Jackie. I'm gonna go sit in Myers
Holler well ship. Some of the tracks we go to,
you can just park the car and just watch it
from the car.

Speaker 1 (01:08:13):
And yeah, that's true. That's one of the big things
that Southern National New River.

Speaker 3 (01:08:17):
Definitely, definitely, definitely some tracks up north needed to take
accommodation to that. I mean, thunder Rolls got it, and
I got Thompson's got.

Speaker 2 (01:08:25):
It, but Thompson doesn't have that thing.

Speaker 1 (01:08:27):
Yeah, they do. Right on the back stretch, you can
put a fucking camper.

Speaker 2 (01:08:30):
Oh well, I thought that was for yeah, but I
thought that was pit crew members only, like a pit
career area, the pit pass to get on the backstretch.
I thought I might be wrong. I don't fucking know
what I thought.

Speaker 3 (01:08:40):
You bring a camper, Yeah, you need to bring a camper, Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:08:45):
Or your truck or whatever you want to do. You
can go right out there in park.

Speaker 2 (01:08:49):
I don't know. I thought that was crew members.

Speaker 1 (01:08:50):
If you pay a pit pass, on a regular weekend
you can go.

Speaker 2 (01:08:53):
Yeah, see like a lot of the tracks, a lot
of the tracks here. If you buy a pit pass,
you can't bring personal vehicle in the pits because it's
too any well and shit, so like I forget that,
like you can, Tompson.

Speaker 3 (01:09:04):
These fucking as I was as I was just trying
to fucking just explain here if more tracks should just
fucking like clear out backstretches or corners and have people.

Speaker 2 (01:09:14):
Grill out and camp, well camp, but grill.

Speaker 3 (01:09:16):
Camp easy of I mean, Oh, the nad Knock's another
one that added to that that you can can't right
out turn three or four and then walk right to
the track and enjoy your day and stuff like that,
And like, I think it's the coolest thing. I think
that's the coolest thing that they got going on down
here is that stuff. And uh, definitely more tracks up
north could could have it with with some help, you

(01:09:38):
know what I mean, it'd be cool.

Speaker 2 (01:09:40):
You try, like a New River, you buy your ticket,
pay your ticket. There's like ten to fifteen bucks and
you're pay an extra twenty you can park the truck. Yeah,
Southern National does the same thing, except there's is like
twenty dollars for your ticket and at twenty five dollars
a park there. Sobo yeah, so well, sobo, you can't
you don't, you can't park your truck there, but yeah,

(01:10:01):
you can just put your chair right right on the
wall stretch, yeah, the backsh Yeah, that's special parking. You
gotta pay. That's permit like year, you just pay it
for the season. And then what you do for that
is if you don't show up, they wait until, like
I think it's like an hour before the actual race starts.
If if there's vacant one, then you can pull your

(01:10:22):
truck in shit. But then but then if they show
up late, you kind of it kind of gets a
little funky because that happened to me a couple of
years ago with my boss. Me and my boss felt
and went up for the went on for some late
model race and we and we were trying to park
this truck and then we parked it because they didn't
show up. Well, it showed up a half hour after
features started, and it kind of became a little bit

(01:10:44):
of a tussle, not like a tussle tussle, but a tussle,
you know, a couple of words exchange. This is my
spaing like, motherfucker get here earlier they opened it to
the public now, so like kind of lost out on
that one, dude. But yeah, besides that, yeah, it's pretty cool.
A lot of tracks that do that, and they're there
and there's like families that do it because like they
got kids, so like they'll throw a blanket down, you know,

(01:11:06):
throw the toiles so the kid can kind of like
run around. They're not stuck on the bleachers annoying the kid.
The parents in front of them that don't have any
kids because they're throwing race cars at them or or
you know, hooting and holler, and you can kind of
you can do that. You get real up close to
the action. And like some of these tracks, Man, when
you stand up that wall and you look down at
the bank and you go, damn, like that's something. There's

(01:11:26):
a lot more bank. You know, you go to Southern
National and you're sitting, you're standing on that wall. You
look down and you're like, man, I don't even think
I could walk up this bastard. You know, it's it's
a steep it kind of it's a cool, but it's
cool to see. It's cool experience. I know, I've definitely
taken advantage of it, even when Hickory used to do it,
but now they just cover that fence and and advertising

(01:11:48):
times with me and me and all done with John
dirt Evan. That was our first time we went to
Hickory for a car store a race and we parked
my truck on the wall. I was kind of hoping
a late model would come flying, but it'll be all right.
But I mean, yeah, so like definitely you guys need
to do some some truck side parking or something like
that would be really cool. But yeah, I mean I'm

(01:12:13):
ready for the next race for Wilkesboro next weekend and
everything else that we're gonna we're gonna end up doing
this offseason, well what we call off season for the modified,
so kind of off season because I don't stop and
I'll just keep going the race tracks.

Speaker 3 (01:12:26):
Yeah, I mean, you got this now, so you go
down there. I mean, your phone sucks. If anybody has
the phone, that's actually worth a ship for James to use,
get a hold of them.

Speaker 2 (01:12:37):
You dropped a nicotine guy.

Speaker 1 (01:12:39):
But like I said, I mean we're down here now,
so we're gonna be covering up North like they just
had the World Series. Happened that the cold as Hell
Bonsignor wins again. Uh for for the NASCAR Wheeling Tour
over there, and then Tom Carry won a c t

(01:13:02):
uh and.

Speaker 2 (01:13:03):
Then do that crazy finish in the snow Coo Mods.
Oh yeah, uh Keith Rocko.

Speaker 1 (01:13:09):
And yeah so they the end of that. Uh.

Speaker 3 (01:13:16):
Ryan Waterman won the street Socks today for some reason,
they didn't want to broadcast the street Socks.

Speaker 1 (01:13:23):
That pissed me.

Speaker 2 (01:13:24):
The funk Off didn't broadcast anything but the Wheelingeries the broadcast.

Speaker 1 (01:13:27):
I mean, I know, I get that.

Speaker 2 (01:13:30):
For flow, no race in America didn't have it either,
they didlready. I looked right when you said that earlier
and none there was nothing else broadcasting.

Speaker 1 (01:13:37):
Oh that's good, that's good for those Saturday night guys.

Speaker 2 (01:13:39):
Oh it was a Sunday guy.

Speaker 1 (01:13:40):
Well you get my point, you get it, you get
what I mean.

Speaker 2 (01:13:43):
At least like with the Smart Tour, they they broadcast.

Speaker 3 (01:13:46):
Broadcast everything the whole night. There's twenty seven Bandolero features.
But there's still a Smart Tour race coming, don't you.

Speaker 1 (01:13:52):
Yeah? Just wait.

Speaker 2 (01:13:55):
Oh shout out to the dude in the orange Vintage
Modified that thing is so gnarly. We saw it a
southern nat know, and he dominated. Then he spun it
out twice.

Speaker 3 (01:14:02):
That guy floors the one the bel air. Oh that
thing is beautiful and nice as hell.

Speaker 2 (01:14:10):
I don't even know why you brought that to the racetrack.
That's the son and that's what's cool if it's vintage cars.
But they don't. Yeah, it's not no show. It's not
slow and like, let's just look at these cars, like yeah,
and they're not saying like who wins nothing. No, these
guys come out with full blown late models and you know,
these things sound like some of them sound like old

(01:14:32):
cup cars, like and they're old modified, old late model
sportsmen and they put these beautiful vintage bodies on them
and they do some run. These these old guys they
still got it. They still swing I mean another ball
sag a little more. They're still swinging them on the
shoulder and and they're getting after it. But like, yeah,
that that orange modified that guy, that thing is bad fast.

(01:14:55):
But he just had he he was a little loose
and coming out of two to all day and it
got the best of him at the end of the day.

Speaker 1 (01:15:03):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:15:03):
But actually that oh, speaking of that. So remember last
year when we're out we were at South Boston. I
think god, I took a picture of it for you,
but there was a modify that flipped into turn one
where we were where we were pitted at, and it
was that Gray nine A so yeah, Southern ground pound dude.
They hit hard and he he flipped it. It was

(01:15:26):
that Gray nine. But it's it's back out there running.
But yeah, so those guys actually race hard. It's not yeah,
it's not. No, it's not no, just putts around and
and just look at what racing used to be. Like
these guys drive yeah, crazy, Yeah, they're racing them.

Speaker 1 (01:15:42):
There's no set.

Speaker 2 (01:15:43):
They're banging door, they're banging doors, scuffing each other's paint.
You know, it was good racing.

Speaker 3 (01:15:48):
It was cool to see and I'd rather see that
than and the other ship. But I get it at
the same time, you can't really replace the stuff. I
mean it's pretty hard to.

Speaker 2 (01:15:57):
Well, thank god, it's just sheet metaling. Well because like
I think that one car like it's not an old Jazz,
I think it's a thing sounds like a damn late model.

Speaker 1 (01:16:03):
Well yeah, no, that thing's gotten some heat under it.
But yeah, no, that was cool. I was gonna say
something else, but I know we're gonna be at a
Hickory right now. That's what I know of for for
the street stock.

Speaker 3 (01:16:20):
And then uh obviously North Wilkesboro next weekend, so we'll
be there for that with the Smart Tour and Kimball
and all those guys coming down for that along with
the Cars Tour is gonna be there, the pro Late
Models are gonna be there, So it's gonna be it's
gonna be an eventful weekend next weekend. And we're not

(01:16:43):
going out Friday, James, Well you might not, but I'm
telling you do. We have to wake up early, I don't.

Speaker 2 (01:16:50):
Think so, Okay, haven't given they haven't given me the
itinerary sheet yet. They'll probably give you that tomorrow.

Speaker 1 (01:16:55):
Okay, so we'll have to figure that out.

Speaker 2 (01:16:58):
We go No, we're going out.

Speaker 1 (01:17:00):
I'll be going out. I mean we can go out
on Glenwood again. I don't care. We're gonna get those
we gonna get those electric scooters. So we found out
we can. We can electric scooters. Man, I'm gonna bring
a girl home with those things. I'm telling you.

Speaker 2 (01:17:14):
I don't telling dude, there's no, there's only room for
two of us, not three.

Speaker 1 (01:17:17):
No, we're gonna get two scooters.

Speaker 2 (01:17:18):
Oh, come on, we can't be like that that couple
we saw driving by my house. No, it's just like
second day here and we're outside. We're no. It was
the morning he got here. We were unpacking his car
and we just looked down the road and there's one
of these electric scooters oning around and it's a couple
wearing helmets like the dude in the backs holding on
and she's in front, just riding. And I told Randy,

(01:17:41):
that's how we're going to the bar. And ten minutes
scoot scoot, ride, baby.

Speaker 3 (01:17:48):
You see me fucking singing Louisiana Saturday night telling is
she gone?

Speaker 2 (01:17:55):
The best part is they'll drop them off to you,
and then when you're done with them, you just throw
them on the side of the road and they'll pick
them up. It's kind of nice. Yeah, So just don't
trip over them when you're trying to leave the bar,
because they do put them in some very inconvenient fucking
spots here.

Speaker 1 (01:18:07):
The middle of the fucking walkway.

Speaker 3 (01:18:09):
I don't get that, but it's a whole strip that
shuts down at nighttime and it's a fun it's a fun,
fun place.

Speaker 1 (01:18:18):
And uh yeah, so yeah, maybe we'll do that Friday.
We'll see, I will regardless. So catch me out there, guy,
okay if you well, no, you went all sentimental on
me last time because you were we had to get
up early. Then we go to some fucking dive bar,
and I'm loving dive bars.

Speaker 3 (01:18:36):
Dive bar until two am. I mean, they're lucky they
had pool tables.

Speaker 1 (01:18:41):
I was ready to go. I was ready to go.

Speaker 2 (01:18:43):
No, it was fun enough trying to watch the bar
tender lady light that fire and she kept failing after
five minutes.

Speaker 1 (01:18:49):
Oh yeah, you gotta put oil on it.

Speaker 2 (01:18:51):
Yeah, she forgot to put the oil on it. She
just lit the cardboard over. But to go to work, No, no, no,
But I watched the dude almost knocked the plants over
that they were just saying how nice they were, the
people around us. And then the worker almost takes it
off the table by accident with his elbow. That would
have been hilarious.

Speaker 1 (01:19:10):
But we met a lot of cool people in a
short amount of time. We're gonna continue to do that.

Speaker 3 (01:19:15):
I gotta I gotta find a graphics person down here, Well,
not the graphics person.

Speaker 1 (01:19:19):
I gotta find a Vinyl guy.

Speaker 2 (01:19:20):
Bradley McCaskill. Hit us up.

Speaker 3 (01:19:22):
Yeah, exactly, Come sponsor us because I gotta get stickers
again because all those went away.

Speaker 2 (01:19:28):
Now we have a lot of cars that just randomly
slap them on as we're walking by the pits.

Speaker 1 (01:19:31):
Oh no, not that.

Speaker 2 (01:19:32):
I mean, we know, Oh you think I won't.

Speaker 1 (01:19:35):
It's better to make a relationship with some people.

Speaker 2 (01:19:37):
Yeah, you make it the same way I did a table, though.

Speaker 3 (01:19:39):
It's different down here. I've already ran into some people
that are just fucking.

Speaker 2 (01:19:44):
Rude.

Speaker 1 (01:19:45):
Yeah, I mean that needed to get humbled a little bit,
you know what I mean.

Speaker 3 (01:19:50):
They need a loose wheel town. I mean whatever, We're
in a whole different thing. So we're gonna find out
how everything is out here, and other than that, we're
gonna we're gonna try to do these more and.

Speaker 1 (01:20:06):
Go from there.

Speaker 3 (01:20:06):
I mean, I want to get back into this stuff.
You guys have been still, I mean I looked at it.
I haven't looked at who we use in a while
to put these out to you guys. And you guys
still listen to our podcast episodes and stuff like that.
And I'm and I got my old computer over here
that I gotta pull all the other things off, all

(01:20:28):
the all the other episodes off that we did, uh
two years in advance, in advance?

Speaker 1 (01:20:35):
What am I saying? Behind behind? And we're gonna try.

Speaker 3 (01:20:38):
To come out with something that's like the Vault or
something like that, so you guys can go back and
listen to that stuff where it doesn't like intertwine with
this stuff, so you guys can stay up to date
to everything that we're talking about there. And I mean,
keep keep sharing our podcast page. I mean, ten five
hundred followers in under in three years or under three
years is absolutely fucking crazy. I didn't think this was

(01:21:01):
gonna be what it was because I just made this ship.
And I ain't lying to y'all just to talk shit, honestly,
not to talk shit, to be like, it's not the
talk shit, it's to fucking make changes that need to
fucking happen. If you got racers that tell you, hey,
don't fucking do that, it pisses me off. I don't
want to do that with you. I'll go do something else,
you know what I mean. And that's what we all

(01:21:23):
got to look in the mirror and need to understand
that race is not dying. It's staying level right now.
But if, but if we continue to allow fucking bullshit,
which we were allowing back when I started this stuff,
we wouldn't have had ship. And trust me, I'm thankful
that we have tracks, and I'm thankful we got promoters,
and I'm thankful for that shit.

Speaker 1 (01:21:44):
I don't think. I'm not thankful for fucking gimmicks.

Speaker 3 (01:21:46):
I'm not thankful for fucking favoritism, and I'm not thankful
for fucking bullshit. I don't care who the fuck you are.
I don't care what you do, or what sponsor you
have on your fucking car or whatever the fuck that
is the end of the day. You're a person just
like nobody else. You're still a Saturday night guy. Where
you started to where you are now, you still started
as a Saturday night guy. So I'll treat everybody as

(01:22:08):
a Saturday night guy, you know what I mean. So
that's how it should be. And that's why I started
this stuff, because we start I started this. James came about,
but I started this because they wasn't listening to me
as a racer. When I was racing so I was like,
fuck it, they gonna listen to this. And now we're
at ten thousand, five hundred people. So now we're trying
to ease the scale back into where we're still uncut,

(01:22:30):
uncentsoring all that stuff.

Speaker 1 (01:22:31):
But now everybody's gonna be yelling at us.

Speaker 3 (01:22:34):
And I hope, and I hope all you fucking New
Jersey motherfuckers that didn't like what I said about your
fucking driver that fucking just turned left off a tune
in front of all the fucking dude, the fucking driver
that fucking just turned left. This is what I mean,
How fuck do you think you have any fucking okay?

Speaker 1 (01:22:53):
And you're mad at me for saying that was fucking stupid,
when everybody there at Carteret was like, that was fuck stupid.

Speaker 2 (01:23:01):
Idiot, all the fucking drivers, I mean even all the drivers.
Even Jason said, if I ever come and think of
that idea, guys, just rip me out the fucking car,
beat me with the tire iron Like he's like, don't know,
don't put me in that predicament.

Speaker 3 (01:23:18):
To the one guy that said do not recommend this podcast,
I appreciate you because I don't either.

Speaker 1 (01:23:23):
But thank you for listening like it don't hurt me, man,
it don't. I have a nine to five that I
enjoyed now.

Speaker 3 (01:23:31):
I had a nine to five when I started this, though,
And I'll build this to whatever it is, but it's
not my cash cow. I mean, I do this for
the sake of my heart and I'll never get sick
of doing it. And if you don't like how I
fucking say the ship that everybody else the.

Speaker 2 (01:23:47):
Same, then let me quote Ricky Bobby for you, then
fuck you.

Speaker 3 (01:23:53):
I mean, come on, man, like that was the stupidest
shit I've ever watched in my life. And I've been
around racing, for fucking holy shit for twenty twenty twenty
to twenty five years.

Speaker 2 (01:24:05):
That was my first race is in my mom's stomach
when my dad was racing in Durrow was a Hudson
in ninety five ninety four.

Speaker 3 (01:24:10):
So I mean I went to the track when I
was two weeks old, but like as as a race
fan or or in racing, I was five or six
years old. And I've seen a lot of racing throughout
my years. I'm twenty nine, so I've been twenty three
years of doing this shit. That's still one of the
dumbest shit.

Speaker 1 (01:24:27):
I mean, I get it.

Speaker 3 (01:24:29):
The whole situation was he just I get he was
fighting to stay in front of the leaders. You were
the only one that didn't take tires at the end
direct or wrong way? Yeah, only person that didn't take
fucking tires. And then I get you got a block, motherfucker.
You fuck some motherfucker's up doing that shit.

Speaker 2 (01:24:48):
You're ruined dark car. Absolutely, just aslutely we went through
two cars that day.

Speaker 1 (01:24:52):
Yeah, it was like that was not fun. It was
a bad weekend out in Jacksonville.

Speaker 2 (01:24:56):
The Swans bro Yae.

Speaker 5 (01:24:58):
Yeah. Shit, we didn't even get to talk about Jacksonville
when we came down here for the Labor Day. Oh
my god, do not no, just no, if you go
to a strip club past two o'clock, just keep driving home.

Speaker 1 (01:25:13):
Stupid as shit. That horrible idea.

Speaker 2 (01:25:16):
What do you mean I got diagnosed? Yeah, so so
we're not Finally.

Speaker 1 (01:25:24):
We're not gonna talk about it because I got some
friends that have that's that stuff going on with their No.

Speaker 2 (01:25:32):
You won't go into it, well you can. You can
ask me.

Speaker 3 (01:25:35):
James got diagnosed by a stripper, and that's what we'll
leave it at. So when you see TPM at the track,
go and ask him what he got, because we ain't
gonna talk about it on this At the end of
the day, I still have some some morals and respect
about the stuff. Even if it's funny and it's shop
talk between us, I ain't gonna put it out there
like that. So plus it gives you reason to come
talk to this kid. And boy, he's a unit. Make

(01:25:59):
a wish foundation is no joke.

Speaker 2 (01:26:01):
Nope, And you know what, I guess I'm on the
top of the class because they let me work on modifards.

Speaker 1 (01:26:08):
He does pretty well, James is And I'll give you this.
You have your heart in it and not many. You're
not dumb, You're not.

Speaker 2 (01:26:19):
You just I just acted. Sometimes it's not I come
off as as a straight dumb ass. I won't lie.

Speaker 1 (01:26:25):
Yeah, well we know you mean well, but we know
you goofy as fuck.

Speaker 2 (01:26:32):
So that's why we love up to the sheets Lady

Speaker 3 (01:26:53):
But uh so we stopped rambling on. I mean, we're
going to continue to do this stuff. And I appreciate
you guys, sorry for going on a tangent. That's what
happens when you have eighty HDS to all the sponsors
that rode with us this past year. Even though we
done ship on doing stuff for you guys and promoting

(01:27:13):
you guys, We'll come up with something to make it even.

Speaker 1 (01:27:16):
And I'll come up with it when I get settled
