But it OK okay.

They never wanted an All-Star weekend you know bring it right about guys. A couple balls are delayed.

Alone made Olympic medals don't want to but -- afford this week you know gamble special addition company has lost a week we're gonna take their format will be it would not Owens spent a lot of time talking about -- right. We've got a lot of fans after the got questions forced labor up people are watching and out listing what we're doing Carroll three wide so. I don't jump up and this site really quick because when we start to -- every week old mask off boxes built saint. And he couldn't go and elated -- I bet I wanna play action.

It's it's it's quite -- that type -- I think -- you know that it's gotta I gotta get their remember -- that Darlington.

In the spring race at Darlington point five years ago maybe six now. Our boss David he'll he would sit gate. You know he he's a blind guy he wants -- to happen -- your telecast and I don't live in all these years to different people. The Carter coming off turn people were big green flag in the air -- their right to -- or their offer. Green green green it just didn't didn't excite me. You know when it -- it excited me and I wanted to hopefully resonate with the fans and it has obviously. But. That morning I was in my coach great Stevens is a personal friend of mine. I would just do period radio the big these. In the on this streak came. Very. The beauty bogey there ego but he but he of course in this when he had no close but has that effect and that's but I just -- What do you know if -- Jack get up a little bit -- a couple mountain news in the next thing you know but anybody anybody let's go race and voices came plots.

I'm glad I expected to beat. But it maybe a double -- plummeted any animals and -- stock car always publicity efforts are quietly at the right record right. But it certainly he I mean.

I don't have the real reason lot of -- Chris I mean how much looming it's -- calls for the most part that the drivers on the left side of the car. Course only time we've ever turn right we do it today twice the years we go to the two road courses we -- we turn right. Darrell may be had a better answer than they -- that's I don't have the edge Bethel lacking come out with. Is the drivers but let him out of the car makes -- has apparently happened to her --

I I just think on an old. In hallmark most of the road racing circuits in the United States have always been ovals. In the in Europe they're all road courses but I think on an oval it was just safer to have the driver on the left India in the wall on.

Right bunker that may have been had something to do with it might go it would probably have been absolutely perfect answered this question if he were here. But we did have that one time. That NASCAR tried to develop a car was called the LR -- Hard and let them like fifty.

Street or road racing stock or. But still the drivers that only let him and Mike joy would know the answer but -- he knew exactly what the life of the pact and things. -- Take careful and careful -- not a good way to where you're always questions get them you know well I did one of elevated to that I thought I thought it figured they -- happier note I got it exactly right I want that would you don't.

If you go to Vienna. It's going to be on -- show. Is -- the that it.

You look you know look we're paying me I mean I mean I Larry and I hearing and I mean -- I mean I don't know --

Can't -- detractors -- you're far it looks as big Atlanta call up and have a hard time making babies. You Yale -- you ain't got no Alabama. Each the only our cars go round of the circle creating a vortex. -- Peabody -- over the track or remind us. I doubt very many out there aren't up I got into it won't -- got back problems that I've found in -- physics didn't belong on a race car looks. Yeah makes it cool. I'm just. Difficult it was this year I -- running what you know all -- golden. If I can now look forward. Kid in Bristol are sharp -- big -- and Carl credit oh god I'm really up there when they start they're -- and win Nady to provoke thought how many and then when he --

On longer enough wasn't auto racer Chevrolet at Indian National Guard interstate batteries Camry. -- at City -- evidence Camry team got to thank FedEx -- and number eleven team. Coach quietly at. He caught Chevrolet Dan and as Gasquet -- army Donaldson -- the Miller Lite dodge seven Sosa's.

We had to watch you'll. Other drivers get away it was picking -- spots today did they take classes or is that NASCAR requirements major to -- ever -- making the main sponsor. Think about you know our sport. We are not.

Self sustaining. The purses that we race for the amount of prize money you can win more not sustain -- raced me so we have to go out that and parents sponsors. And when you found a sponsor and they -- you twenty million dollars a year and with your name on your car and -- great here uniform with their name and your ball cap and all the other thing they do they need it it's an obligation. That the driver heads. And in I think he'd taken to an extreme date victory if I'm stayed in there with Mountain Dew mirrored across my uniform and a mound you have don't drink and mountain Dave. I don't know if it's necessary for me to say I want to thank my sponsor mound and he. But a lot of guys -- and and and rightfully so and on and and and they get. Maybe get. The Coke got -- them and chipped it choke points for -- and Coke cup winner being interviewed so sponsored. And you have to you have to take your a woman you have to.

Mentioned only as many times. You possibly can because there's some CEO and at home watch.

That telecast. -- are probably don't TV's on needing every mention darn name what draw that driver. So the drivers have a lot of pressure on to get that meeting and every chance again. You know I'm glad you mentioned that -- a book about what it's like this -- as we're told about a mile -- just -- I've done a great job keeping me alive any clothes and socialize for years what we all have. We haven't you know.

I have video player obligated to do a quick to have a bit of -- that if they brought him evolve but. Real quick to a select the Kentucky at Kentucky -- they're very -- if you're wild that cars. Kolb got hit what part of it is a dot com.

Well honestly the -- stock car came from for -- when we first started race and and NASCAR course none of us were around a lot of us were racing in the end. But -- Billick they weren't happy how winning gonna go they think -- nobody -- there wouldn't you but honestly they they weren't stock car when you think about it then. Most of the time these guys grow their race car to the racetrack it was a car off the street. They they would maybe take they had lights out things like that they would go right in fact dale Inman. Told me a story the other day of the you know -- heady indirect group drab and a car to Riverside California. In the right spit out their Riverside so that that's certainly where. The name's Scott came from the new look today. Yet there's not a lot of things that that our stock. That you can go to the dealership and and and Bob from across the parts scattered ago in -- only race -- NASCAR certainly worked hard -- to continue to help the manufacturers. Keep some of that did the of Chevrolet Ford dodge and Toyota and -- people -- rumblings that may be in 2011. They're gonna even do some other things to help them manufacture -- more had indeed been they do today. Certainly the -- stock car I'm not sure how close that applies today. But where it came from -- back in the -- when NASCAR force started racing stock car throughout the dealership or most cases brought -- straight.

You know let me just read that make that I was watching a Richard -- story and they -- they were -- somewhere and they needed a car. And so they win it in the grandstand and I think jacket they borrow it -- mobile. People hardest part took it down and and strapped -- door shut and did all the things he had to do and they actually raced at Carl. The -- belonged like that was -- of a fan in the stands and -- squirrel. Oh squirrel ran off the racetrack gonna go about a tree and a and it's funny Q what's his story used. -- out what I don't remember how we explained it to the gap but all I can remember with experience.

Yeah. -- could lower but it -- to join blog was diving and stay out. Quarterback for the Orioles are everybody the best -- levers gods. Of I did ours is okay.

It's your job. Lovers thought. The -- Okay. --

Everybody here all three what I -- is all about you fans react questions from the Leicester is out there and we're gonna try to answer as many as we possibly can't a short period attempt. I don't come back and executed here -- you'll bit prejudiced but it this is one of the questions that came from Danielle at Phoenix.

Bonus record of Internet common. Nowadays and -- But cars. -- totally different movies that. -- you're totally different off off audiences.

Court was. A movie that was low ball a little kids are and to this day no matter what I do or what ever went -- today. One -- I'd say I was in the movie cars in her little kids around there ratified a bigger than headlights so. I I'm -- the course mainly because I love this story. It was a great movie and it was a there's movie did anybody could set now watch with her family and enjoy.

And I'm lucky I like I like the -- but I gotta believe that you like tell -- had a cameo role there. -- in the movie itself and not. You know there's something about him whether don't have -- Bobble by the kind of reminds me of Daryl -- payday he was -- I want to protect a particular.

But well yeah mean and it it. It certainly was very flattering to be asked to do part of the broadcast appearances -- Mike or in in Talladega nights in. To me the most comical thing that happened. Since Talladega nights came out in my -- picked up only just like that was last spring at Talladega. When Carl Edwards -- come with a checkered flag in he. Got out of his car -- walked across the finish line and in the court might do immediately cities. He's Dominican Ricky Bobby from Talladega nights and it was justified maybe panicking about. I think other than the fact they were both movies compared Talladega nights the card is is compared and Avalon eleven -- two totally different. Different that -- Okay and Eleanor you're forty guests and double -- of this -- you can relate to. And it happens cup from what -- Raphael from Bozeman Montana in.

Maybe it's Bobby also hit -- walk the dog -- right. They wanted to that -- drivers do they have to go bodies are right oh my god.

But I know that. There's there's a couple of questions and if you get past almost inevitably everywhere -- And using it atop the lifted that particular question. I've just always have rep for references to if you were going on a road trip. You know and you know that you are going to be in the carper three or four hours. So what is batter Ballmer what do you do. Okay error by let's go party before we get in the car political party before we start down -- way because I don't wanna have to be making a lot of unnecessary stops. So. It indicate a race card you hydrate is much you possibly can before you do in the -- You sweat so much during a race. In your focus in your concentration is such that really truly. I can only remember in thirty years a couple of times. They can I'm not going to be able to make it to the end of the race -- I've got to go to bat for. But it -- I've always said is his very poor planning. If you get an ardent got to think about going to the bathroom halfway through lyrics.

But but I wanna add to that -- it and I've never driven -- race -- never even driven a race car. In a 25 lap race but -- you mention the -- focusing concentration in what I related to. -- settlement pit box for eighteen years -- And I can only remember once or twice. In it was only under a red flag conditions. That actually class golf that pit box. In which use the restroom I think it's just all your focus volume concentration -- what you're doing that you don't know.

But about folks we're here in it -- Autism Speaks golf tournament already tender all of our folks from fox you're here today and a it's an owner to be a part has been a part of everyone Ohman and -- Cougars also they have it. But there's a great weekend there's probably not a lot of things that I have on the schedule that I blocked off a year in advance to this is one of and so. It's always lot of fun great people and great turnout. Yeah. Nice to have certainly has great weather so just always a lot of fun and we'll let it be part of that means a lot to get to be here and and the amount of money for the NASCAR community it's a race. For autism. -- over the next ten hours pretty --

Only played two holes of -- golf balls in play the next two holes are found to have the -- balls in the woods and guess what Jeff Hammond had an amazing discover this morning. Its lowest scoring and they can all these years. -- score like he might play a little better today about these figured that out -- yeah. You better -- at times you haven't won yet you won't win it today because Hollywood's. Playing at home the -- everything we're doing is to help support autism and autism awareness. But Michael personally. Not -- Sox -- Jeff handled hey folks you know I'll have seen Saturday's bank golf but it is for a good golf is for autism and Hammond. But I can't say on TV how bad ideas well thanks for shares.

The W is a lot better driving is very struck me as a golf.

It's great turnout every year and -- the weather's perfect and just a bunch of good people. I'm playing golf and raise a lot of money I think a lot of this is wonderful -- so it makes a good. You know there's nothing. All somebody ever does anything that they -- I don't think I have got.

We wanna be everybody good I don't think that -- You know anybody so these these things are suggesting that the Bible against. Terry Jones for most of us -- easier for me.

I hear it to the last one is gonna come from fled Los Angeles I'm thinking mystery friend Chris Myers and yet the question. When you.

An American article card just in case. You need to have a -- utterly and everybody have a AAA field today here's the other thing you know -- that -- Well it could feel like Christmas now it crystal today. Can put that arrow indeed its allotment -- the darn thing come opera but I'm outscored them credit after -- you know the amazing thing with most of these new cars they're becoming about as complicated. Where they're they're directly at him or that Jack he would you know no longer is everything in the trial kicked me out of the inning get complacent I don't finally actually -- I'm not yeah you gotta do. Larry got to bolt in the open to trumpet you have to undo the lead deterrent -- are down it's underneath the car are I don't and that would not that's been -- little time going to be that wonder if things were simple where you open truck and he remember have a flat that's spare carries to be up in the front -- underneath what we call the hat -- of -- there. He wouldn't be near as complicated detained attack against him wherever they -- the tank I didn't know what is no you know what -- let. You know what this whole conversation peruse what access to question and we can talk about a for an hour one way or the other about the that the thought that that kind of liked. Maybe answer your question for the day and -- got more plays if you medalists. -- and that will be glad it's -- piece -- that honestly about whatever you want to -- for the right thing.
