And 173 00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:33,440 Speaker 4: it's been really really nice living in this, uh, this 174 00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:35,840 Speaker 4: zone that I'm in and being able to kind of 175 00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:39,400 Speaker 4: race freely and and figure out your strengths and weaknesses. 176 00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:42,320 Speaker 4: So it's been a lot of fun. Been a really 177 00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:42,720 Speaker 4: good year. 178 00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:45,200 Speaker 2: Congratulations good because everybody needs a good year. And I'm 179 00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:47,560 Speaker 2: sure that you've had quite a time just in general 180 00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:51,280 Speaker 2: being a minority in the racing industry and everything else 181 00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:52,920 Speaker 2: that you've read with. So I love that you've had 182 00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:53,360 Speaker 2: a good year. 183 00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:53,720 Speaker 4: Thank you. 184 00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:56,360 Speaker 2: And now here come my stupid questions. Here is there 185 00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:58,520 Speaker 2: like a season for driving or is this all year? 186 00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:02,680 Speaker 4: Basically all year? We get one month? 187 00:08:02,880 --> 00:08:04,600 Speaker 2: Okay, oh what month do you get off? 188 00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:08,880 Speaker 4: So we go from Valentine's Day to the first weekend 189 00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:10,920 Speaker 4: of November and that's it. 190 00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:14,560 Speaker 2: It's just constant. You have races, one off weekend day. 191 00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:19,000 Speaker 4: We just announced, we just announced. She works with a 192 00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:22,880 Speaker 4: NASCAR and so she takes all the heavy hits that 193 00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:25,080 Speaker 4: we just love to dish out when we're annoyed at things. 194 00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:27,760 Speaker 4: So anyways, so yeah, we just announced the schedule for 195 00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:30,960 Speaker 4: the twenty twenty sixth season and there's two off weekends. 196 00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:33,360 Speaker 2: What do you do all that time? 197 00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:37,000 Speaker 4: Yeah? Nothing, you think about it. So you have a 198 00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:41,520 Speaker 4: race typical Typical Sunday to Wednesday for me is Sunday, 199 00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:44,400 Speaker 4: we have the race, Monday have meetings, Tuesday have meetings, 200 00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:47,600 Speaker 4: and then Wednesday Thursday you're free and then you travel Friday. 201 00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:51,520 Speaker 4: So I look at it as Okay, I don't have 202 00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:53,959 Speaker 4: a meeting on Monday and Tuesday the following week, that's it. 203 00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:56,520 Speaker 4: So it's really because then you're right back to it 204 00:08:57,320 --> 00:09:01,200 Speaker 4: because you're preparing for the next race. So you don't 205 00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:03,800 Speaker 4: have much time off. So I say, we have the 206 00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:07,439 Speaker 4: full month of December off, so we usually plan a 207 00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:11,600 Speaker 4: little vacation. Obviously the holidays are then, but so you 208 00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:15,800 Speaker 4: get majority of November off, December off, and then January. 209 00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:18,640 Speaker 4: Second week of January you're back to doing media hits 210 00:09:18,679 --> 00:09:23,920 Speaker 4: and everything. So really demanding grueling profession that we have. 211 00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:26,040 Speaker 2: How does one prepare for this? 212 00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:26,480 Speaker 5: Like? 213 00:09:26,679 --> 00:09:29,240 Speaker 2: How do you practice you practice. 214 00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:30,920 Speaker 4: Don't You don't practice, We don't practice. 215 00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:31,960 Speaker 2: You just go in raw. 216 00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:35,520 Speaker 4: So yes, raw on it. Okay, I think they call 217 00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:40,080 Speaker 4: it raw. Yes, we get twenty minutes of practice on 218 00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:43,760 Speaker 4: the weekend, so we do practice. But you would think, well, 219 00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:46,760 Speaker 4: I'll go back maybe fifteen years ago. Now we could 220 00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:50,320 Speaker 4: go practice Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday. That comes at 221 00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:54,320 Speaker 4: extreme cost, right, super expensive to do. Motorsports in general, 222 00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:58,280 Speaker 4: any form of motorsports are super expensive. And NASCAR wanted 223 00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:01,880 Speaker 4: to start to bridge the gap between the well funded 224 00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:04,760 Speaker 4: teams and the lesser funded teams, and so the well 225 00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:08,760 Speaker 4: funded teams could test every day, lesser funded cannot. So 226 00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:12,040 Speaker 4: they got away with testing. Now we're allowed I don't know, 227 00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:16,040 Speaker 4: twenty tests on the year, but it's mandated by NASCAR 228 00:10:16,280 --> 00:10:19,440 Speaker 4: and I haven't tested in over a year. Oh wow, 229 00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:24,160 Speaker 4: So it's just like random selection. So yeah, not to 230 00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:26,760 Speaker 4: get off in the weeds on that. So basically, yeah, 231 00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:29,440 Speaker 4: no no practicing. We show up and we get twenty 232 00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:33,280 Speaker 4: twenty five minutes of practice, which is nothing, and then 233 00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:35,920 Speaker 4: we go straight and qualifying and then on Sunday we 234 00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:38,920 Speaker 4: go right into the race. So you really have to 235 00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:41,079 Speaker 4: have all of your eggs in the basket as soon 236 00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:44,000 Speaker 4: as you leave the shop. And so the weekly prep 237 00:10:44,040 --> 00:10:47,360 Speaker 4: that you do. We can do some simulation work or 238 00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:50,360 Speaker 4: we're driving virtually to help out that, but it's still 239 00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:55,560 Speaker 4: virtual versus reality. There's always a disconnect there. And so yeah, 240 00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:56,920 Speaker 4: not much practice going on. 241 00:10:57,160 --> 00:11:00,280 Speaker 2: That is crazy and you just for Okay, so I'm 242 00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:01,400 Speaker 2: going to get to this in a second, but we 243 00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:03,240 Speaker 2: were just talking about the armchair racers. We had a 244 00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:05,520 Speaker 2: conversation about that today as well. All of the people 245 00:11:05,559 --> 00:11:07,720 Speaker 2: who don't do your job probably could never do your job, 246 00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:10,080 Speaker 2: not even coming close to being in the arena of 247 00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:11,920 Speaker 2: doing your job. They have a whole lot of stuff 248 00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:15,000 Speaker 2: to say. Yes, how does that as a professional athlete 249 00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:17,560 Speaker 2: impact you? Do you read it? Do you read the 250 00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:20,440 Speaker 2: comment section, or do you just say, nah, I'm not going. 251 00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:22,439 Speaker 4: To do it. Yeah. No, So I've kind of gone 252 00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:27,240 Speaker 4: through a transition. You know, once upon a time, many 253 00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:30,200 Speaker 4: moons ago, I was I was pretty well liked in 254 00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:31,160 Speaker 4: the NASCAR ranks. 255 00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:32,960 Speaker 2: Are you not anymore? 256 00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:37,000 Speaker 4: You know, you have your days. Yeah, it's not bad. 257 00:11:37,640 --> 00:11:40,959 Speaker 4: And so like when I kind of took a turn, 258 00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:44,480 Speaker 4: I was reading everything and just like trying to defend 259 00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:48,280 Speaker 4: yourself right. Well, then you realize, like, it doesn't matter 260 00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:50,720 Speaker 4: what you do. You could you could hand out a 261 00:11:50,760 --> 00:11:53,040 Speaker 4: million dollars to everybody in the world, and you'd still 262 00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:54,000 Speaker 4: be a jerk. 263 00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:54,400 Speaker 3: Yep. 264 00:11:54,559 --> 00:11:57,840 Speaker 4: Anyways, now I kind of just feed into. 265 00:11:57,640 --> 00:12:01,200 Speaker 2: It and you became our own troll. What are you doing? 266 00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:04,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, of course. Yeah. So like Bubba hasn't won in 267 00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:07,000 Speaker 4: a hundred races. Yeah, you know, like the kids sucks. 268 00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:09,360 Speaker 4: Then I go out and win Brickyard and it's like. 269 00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:11,040 Speaker 2: And now they all shut up, but they don't. 270 00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:13,480 Speaker 4: But they don't, don't. They just moved the goal post 271 00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:16,000 Speaker 4: goal posts further, which is fine. 272 00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:18,040 Speaker 2: When you say there was a turn? What was the turn? 273 00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:18,800 Speaker 2: What happened? 274 00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:21,120 Speaker 4: Oh? Do we have all the time in the day 275 00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:21,880 Speaker 4: to talk about. 276 00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:23,800 Speaker 2: It as long as you want to. I would love 277 00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:24,360 Speaker 2: to hear it. 278 00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:27,680 Speaker 4: So I would just encourage you to type in Bubba 279 00:12:27,679 --> 00:12:31,480 Speaker 4: Wallace on Google okay, not race stats, and it probably 280 00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:34,040 Speaker 4: would pop up right at the top. But twenty twenty, 281 00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:39,920 Speaker 4: there was a little scenario that went down that got wait, I. 282 00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:41,400 Speaker 2: Think I actually know this. Yeah, this is the one 283 00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:44,040 Speaker 2: thing I know. Was it about a rope in your Okay? 284 00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:44,439 Speaker 4: That was that? 285 00:12:44,880 --> 00:12:45,320 Speaker 2: Okay? 286 00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:49,079 Speaker 4: And so everyone kind of thought not everyone. That's where 287 00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:52,320 Speaker 4: I messed up before I said everyone. Everyone thought that 288 00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:56,560 Speaker 4: it was manufactured by me. You know, Bubba's phasing out, 289 00:12:57,640 --> 00:12:59,120 Speaker 4: so he had to pull this stunt. 290 00:12:58,840 --> 00:13:01,240 Speaker 2: Hold on once I because if somebody doesn't know what 291 00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:02,680 Speaker 2: we're talking about, and I don't want them to Google 292 00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:06,600 Speaker 2: while they're listening to this fascinating conversation. In twenty twenty 293 00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:07,959 Speaker 2: you were which race was it? 294 00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:11,400 Speaker 4: Uh, Talladega twenty twenty two in the fall.

Yeah, 298 00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:21,160 Speaker 2: so obviously you see this you are a black driver, 299 00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:22,800 Speaker 2: and I did not see it. You didn't see it. 300 00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:24,840 Speaker 4: Else saw it? Yeah, somebody on my team saw it. 301 00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:25,040 Speaker 3: Aw. 302 00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:27,160 Speaker 4: I wasn't even in So that was COVID year, so 303 00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:29,439 Speaker 4: we weren't even allowed.
