Welcome to NWP, here on Danny B. Talks.
03:09
We are joined tonight by our normal co-host, Amelia E. Steff.
03:13
Oh, we're this way.
03:15
And Rys Lundberg, this way, AKA Iceberg.
03:19
How's everybody doing?
03:22
Doing pretty good. Can't complain.
03:25
Yeah, it was a good Wednesday.
03:27
Yes, we are back here on Wednesday.
03:29
We had just finished Martinsville.
03:31
So the papercliff, what'd y'all think of the race?
03:35
It's good. Chase Elliott won.
03:38
Danny Hamlin dominated the race.
03:40
But he got more stage points than Chase Elliott, which is crazy.
03:45
So with this new format and whatnot,
03:49
so he ended up getting more points TikTok,
03:52
he got himself another clock.
03:55
I'm not gonna lie. I was very upset.
03:58
Not that Elliott won. I thought he did great.
04:01
But the fact that my man almost won the race.
04:04
That's why you do hope we're getting hamlin.
04:09
It was taken away from him.
04:11
Yes. He led, yes, led so many.
04:14
I honestly thought that he was going to win that race,
04:17
but a great, great last pit strategy by Alan ended up helping,
04:23
helping them pull off the victory.
04:24
So I think Alan deserves that clock.
04:29
I also think that Ty Gibbs did pretty well.
04:32
I didn't expect him to do that well.
04:34
He's had a really good start to the season.
04:36
We're kind of circling Bristol for him because he's run really well there.
04:41
And, you know, he's had great, great success early on this season,
04:45
which has been very surprising.
04:49
So are we, are we having some fun ladies?
04:54
I think we, we can have a little bit more fun.
04:57
More fun, fun early.
04:58
Fun early, fun early ladies.
05:00
I need you to hide those chats.
05:04
Because we're doing.
05:08
Ooh, we get to play.
05:14
Now this, this research was all done by me.
05:17
I'm very proud of myself.
05:22
So this random driver has been with four different teams.
05:30
Are you actually guessing Kyle Busch?
05:32
Wait, do I only get one guess?
05:36
We're, we're playing.
05:38
Kyle Busch is one of my guesses.
05:40
Kyle Busch is not it.
05:49
Uh, this random driver has been tweeted about by all of our husbands.
05:54
Danny has tweeted about this driver 10 times.
06:01
Jared has tweeted about this driver once.
06:06
Eric has beef with him apparently.
06:10
And it has tweeted about him 63 times.
06:15
He does like to tweet.
06:21
this random driver has had two cup wins in his career.
06:24
And a four O Riley wins.
06:35
it's sort of giving Denny Hamlin a little,
06:39
why am I going like one, number two, number three?
06:42
I'm like going through the drivers.
06:44
Like that's how I think.
06:54
Is that, is that one of your guesses?
06:58
She's going to burn them all then.
07:02
I'm like thinking out loud.
07:05
you're just like Eric that Eric thinks a loud and I'm like,
07:09
Can you say they have two cup series wins?
07:13
They have two cup series wins and four O Riley wins.
07:17
Like just the races,
07:19
not the championships or anything.
07:23
maybe it is BJ McLeod then.
07:30
I don't think it loud because I'm like,
07:51
Is this including lower series?
07:59
Is this a current cup driver?
08:02
It is a current cup.
08:13
I want to say Daniel Suarez because I know he bounced around a
08:17
That's a good guess.
08:19
He would have won more than that.
08:28
He would have won more than that because he won a rally
08:35
but I guess I don't.
08:38
I believe he won an old Riley championship,
08:42
He's only won two cup races.
08:46
Other notable facts that I have dug up.
08:53
this random driver is known for their partnership with a
08:56
well-known bar in Nashville.
08:58
I did know that one.
09:01
was that the next clue?
09:04
I think we would have gotten it by then.
09:11
This random driver makes a voice acting Cameo in a Disney
09:15
Pixar sequel movie.
09:20
three specifically. Let me see. Cars three. You have it. You're coming over. I don't think I've
09:32
even seen cars. I know. John showed my baby cars at three weeks old. Oh my gosh. It took me the
09:42
longest time to actually watch cars too because I heard it was so terrible but then I watched it
09:46
probably a year or two ago and I was like it is so different than one in three. Yeah I haven't
09:52
seen the other two. I've just seen the first one. Yeah well like the second one is like a
09:57
they become like agents or you know secret agents or something. It's so different than you know
10:03
the other one. The next one was this random driver is one of 50 drivers that have driven
10:10
the 99 in a cup. We all locked them out before. Yeah they can't get in. Yeah no and we didn't
10:24
tell them that we're doing this. Yeah no they we sent them on errands honestly. This random driver
10:31
got married in Brazil. Oh that is cool yeah. Yeah and then this random driver is a polyglot
10:40
and for people who don't know what a polyglot is it is somebody who speaks more than three languages.
10:45
I didn't know what that meant either. He speaks English Spanish and Portuguese.
10:50
Oh sleigh. Nice. Yes and then he's a dual citizen and then he is currently sitting 16th in the
10:58
cup points. Well that sounds like my husband that said that out went out for milk. That is
11:08
that is out there he is. Big milk drinker. Okay I really want to know what Eric's beef is with him.
11:17
I was like that's a way. Yeah what is his beef. I have no clue. I saw 63 different times. I'm like
11:24
so how do you how how is that calculated. Do you just go on to like X and then type in
11:31
said I go on to his profile. I filtered it by Daniel Suarez and then I just sat there counting.
11:38
Oh my gosh is that really what Jared does. Yeah oh my gosh. I appreciate the effort.
11:50
I think we're having some pretty pretty good fun ladies. This is I've got to bring the chat back
11:55
up. Now I've got to figure out which fun we're having fun. Yes I want to get Cosmo a little
12:03
fire suit. Oh my gosh. Have you seen the stuff that I think it's who is it. Petsmart has like
12:12
a NASCAR line. Oh we bought him the thing that does the tires. Oh yes yes like a little like
12:20
pick-on thing. The little thing and he loves it. Oh I saw the jacket but they didn't have a size. I saw
12:28
the cute little video it was like somebody had their cat wearing the little NASCAR hat and the
12:35
little sweatshirt and I told Daniel said chokes needs that. Yes well ladies I think it's time for
12:42
some super chats. All right let's see if I'll pull in these up see if I can learn what the button's
12:50
to click. See. Well see. Well wrist do you know how to put them up. That's a great question.
13:04
I was like I can scroll. I believe I do. Here we go. Here we go. From the Toyota Sloth 64 thank you
13:13
for the five dollars says I'm officially abandoned the Ford fan base enjoying the Toyota fan base.
13:18
Being a Ford fan is becoming more miserable than being a Mariners fan. I do feel bad for the Mariners.
13:25
I was like I can't relate are they. They're not bad it's just they're on the brink of success and
13:30
they always just choke. Alrighty next one is from Nick Foley 1744 for the $4.99 super chat.
13:40
Thank you for making my night at work better. Go number 12 and number 77. It's like all right
13:47
wives are going to be on the podcast. Is this going to be the new NASCAR wifey podcast.
13:52
I'm here for it. Better not build NASCAR wifey podcast. I'm about ready to take it back over.
13:58
Hang on. Hang on now. He picked the lock. Who approved this. Oh shoot. How'd you open that door?
14:08
Oh he's got the pick on.
14:16
I think you need to read this super chat. That's funny. From Calypso the seat goddess.
14:22
Thank you for the $4.99. Hello Mrs. Lunderberg. Do you plan on getting your husband to read
14:27
that romance novel before I cast him into the locker of Davy Jones? I think he's already screwed
14:33
there. If he doesn't read it I will hijack his channel and you guys will see live streams from
14:39
the wife Berg reading it and you will have to ask our ASMR. It will be great.
14:45
A new animal for them. They're going to be begging for that. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes.
14:53
All right. We'll read one more. Below the apron for $5 says giving Cletus is with RCR.
15:00
He probably start top five at Dega. I can't imagine what will happen when they put
15:06
three wide being pushed in a tight pack up front. Yeah that would be
15:15
very scary. We should read one more. Oh we got one more. I think so.
15:26
Okay Pac-Man 79 for $2 says Brewer's fan here and I voted Mama Berg. Go.
15:32
Okay. Listen. Oh yes. I'm with you. Your problem has been doing a contest right?
15:40
Yes she has. Yes. Yes. I think she gets the first pitch for the Cubs for one of the games.
15:48
I'm not completely sure what's going on with that but I am a Brewer's fan and a House Fullo
15:54
Cub fan. Yes. Yes because Milwaukee. Yeah right. My dad used to take me to Brewer's games.
16:05
Listen if you can't beat them join them. Fair. All right. Robbie Racer 24 for $4.99
16:13
says love seeing the ladies on tonight. My wife's going to love this. Great way to introduce NASCAR
16:17
to the wives. Thank you. Yes. Daniel got me into watching. Probably it's almost right at 10 years
16:23
ago. We went to our first race. Bristol, a Riley race when we were in college. So he
16:30
actually bought tickets and said we're going and I was kind of mad. I was like you didn't even ask me
16:35
first and here we are. Is that where we proposed to you as Bristol? Yes. Yes. We, that was not the
16:42
same race like because we started. It's like a year and a half later. I was going to say I was
16:49
trying to think. Yeah because that was been spring of 2016 and then we got engaged fall of 2017.
16:55
Oh. Yeah. So ladies can we have our show? No. Fine.
17:03
Fine. Okay. I'm all lasted. This was fun. I can't believe you actually.
17:15
Later. Well that was something. NWP took over by the wives tonight. Hope everyone had fun with that.
17:31
I have never been more disappointed in my spouse than when she told me told the world
17:37
that she has not seen any of the cars films. And she claims to be a Disney fan at that. I mean
17:46
that's that's that's more embarrassing than she's a Disney fan and doesn't doesn't know her car's
17:51
knowledge. Yep. We're gonna have a talk. We're gonna have to talk about that later. Maybe we'll do
17:59
the three of us have to do a movie night. I guess I guess the wives already handled
18:05
pretty much everything. All right. Great show. See you guys later. Bye. Bye.
18:10
Yeah. April Fool's everyone. Thanks for thanks for for for being good sports. That was that was
18:16
fun. They rocked it. We have been we have been talking about doing this idea for how many years
18:21
now and then April Fool's finally fell on a Wednesday. Yeah we said he'll never see this coming.
18:28
Half of them been like I wonder if they're gonna have the wives on it in April Fool's day.
18:34
I did see a few people located that said that before. So good on them. Good on them.
18:41
Hi I'm Danny B. Welcome to NWP on Danny Talk. I'm joined by my two co-hosts today Eric Eastup
18:46
and Jared the iceberg one Berg. We're gonna talk a little bit more about Martinville that the wives
18:53
probably did not talk about because I think they just got the winner and that was probably about it.
18:57
They're having fun starting the real show passionably late tonight. You know you know they always say
19:02
like you know the game starts at seven and then like actual tip off is seven ten. That's what
19:07
we're doing tonight. We're starting green flag falling passionably late on this show tonight.
19:12
But yeah we can get into Martinsville. Alan Gussison he he won the race this week and I
19:20
won't even really say Chase Elliott won the race. Yes he's a driver gets credit for it.
19:24
But Alan Gussison for once all the Chase Elliott haters silence or they're all Alan Gusson haters
19:31
are silenced a little bit because his move miraculously paid off mainly due to
19:38
what was the caution was it was it the Ty Dillon break had that caution that saved them.
19:45
Yeah well it was part of the road or it was a chunk of metal sitting on
19:49
pit road. I mean I think it's a caution. I think it's certainly like as debris like debris
19:57
cautions are already a little painful because it's like really for it to be a piece on pit road
20:03
not even on the racing surface is definitely like man I can understand like some of the drivers
20:08
sound like we're kind of rolling their eyes but I mean it's a legit caution. I mean if a tire's
20:12
loose on pit road they call a caution even if it's you know sometimes if it's during a green
20:16
flag cycle they'll try and hold off as long as they can but like at the end of the day if
20:19
something dangerous is sitting out there where cars are going to be driving they got to throw
20:23
a caution so it's a it's a legit call but yeah it changed the race completely because otherwise
20:28
Chase Elliott I think they liked the the two-stop strategy they were on and talking to Chase after
20:34
the you know the day after the race. I think they felt it was going to you know them short pitting
20:39
the way they did forced the one-stop guys to even short pit earlier than I think they wanted to so
20:44
that was going to be a really long final run on tires for everyone else and so maybe Chase Elliott
20:49
if it goes green would have had the pace to maybe maybe not win but go from like ninth where he was
20:55
to like top five maybe. Top five definitely same possible because of that. Yeah but we'll never
21:00
know for sure that the cautions were very timely and gave him a shot to win. I'm also kind of like
21:06
I'm half convinced like I think it's probably the one on pit road but when I showed Ty Dillon's car
21:13
when it went up in smoke like there were pieces flying off of it then I'm kind of half convinced
21:20
that Fox just didn't show the back stretch being cleaned up or like them picking something up there
21:25
because it looked like stuff was falling off but I mean how much smoke coming from his car at that
21:30
point I mean there won't be mosquitoes there for a while. Yeah any more smoke and you could
21:36
make some ribs right there. I like that one but no I mean we've been hearing so much of the fire
21:46
Allen crowd for a while and I like understand it you know at times there's been times where Elliott
21:52
will have the best car early on in the last 20% of the race will just fall right back
21:56
but then there's other times like this where you know it seems like it fell into his lap
22:02
but they put themselves in position and over and over again in the show I say
22:06
you put yourself in position to win you're going to cash in and for all those races last year they
22:11
didn't this is one they did. Yeah I'm like I'm like once you actually somehow don't want to go so
22:17
I'm like please just reassign him to the 48 with Bowman when he comes back I mean that's how
22:24
y'all really feel about him I would love to see that. Yeah I mean this one race isn't going to
22:29
completely change the narrative like I don't and none of us here maybe Danny I know your wife's
22:34
more of a Chase Elliott fan so maybe y'all follow. Actually not so much anymore she's really got
22:38
where she doesn't want to reform anymore. She just can't stand that Alan Gustafson I'm assuming
22:43
she's just like I'm fed up I watch until he's gone. She's actually she's not really said this
22:47
too much but she's low key whenever he's not hurt she's low key been rooting more for Bowman just
22:53
goes she wants to root pretty underdog a little bit. I like it but what I was going to say was like
22:58
you know we don't watch every race as closely as his diehard fans do like I can think of two
23:02
examples this year pre Martinsville one pro Alan Gustafson one maybe anti Alan Gustafson the pro one
23:08
was Vegas Vegas they got better as the race went on and by the end of the race we're faster than
23:13
Denny and we're running him down in those final laps finished second wasn't expecting that especially
23:17
at Vegas an arrow track with this new Chevy but I wasn't expecting that so credit to the crew chief
23:22
to struggle there before exactly but then on the flip side Darlington I think it was they ran
23:28
they tried to run long like long pit one of the final sequences are in stage two they ran longer
23:34
than everyone else tried to split the stage up differently tried to think outside and that one
23:39
didn't work they were not able to drive back to the position they were in previously so they
23:43
actually lost a few spots lost stage points in that cycle so I've seen both just in the last few
23:48
weeks I've seen Alan make the car better and I've also seen his bold strategy kind of blow up in
23:52
their face and now we have an example of his bold strategy paying off so it's just you know
23:57
in six weeks Chase Elliott fans will probably have something else to complain about they're not
24:01
can dominate every race so there's going to be issues but I think Alan Gustafson his his pedigree
24:06
speaks for himself if anyone has earned a long leash it is Alan Gustafson so I mean I hope this
24:11
is the start of a really good year for Chase yeah I definitely think it can and it set him up nicely
24:17
he's now fourth in the standings and I think I originally had him as my regular season champion
24:24
when we wrote down everyone that we had going into this season so he's definitely a certain
24:28
position himself closer where I thought he'd be which is very ironic because I had had Chase Brisco
24:34
also up there with him and Chase Brisco has been improving because he's at 21st where he was like
24:39
really far back but I think Chase Elliott is at least performing in terms of the chases right now
24:45
yeah oh I mean Denny man I thought I I honestly thought until like you know like even when he
24:52
lost the lead I thought he was going to catch up to Elliott and win it still yeah he was so dominant
24:57
early on and I don't know if it was handling and also dirty air but then also I gotta say
25:06
at the end of the race and it went both ways so I don't think this cost or you know Denny the
25:11
race or one chase the race um the lap cars man like you're getting down to the end and your
25:17
three laps down like just get out of the way like hit the brakes in the middle of the corner and let
25:20
the leaders go by instead of racing them down the some of them did a few of them didn't yeah
25:26
someone pointed out like Nima check was a chore to lap all day and I think someone I forget what
25:32
show pointed out well maybe that's because Hamlin wrecked Eric Jones last week maybe they told the
25:36
guys I don't give Denny an inch uh and then custer with uh with Elliott like a Chevy yeah
25:43
and I mean custer was a little I love the cut to Alan Alan's just like
25:48
for for both custer and you know the the legacy guys you feel like per custer you feel like you're
25:55
a disrespected Chevy driver and legacy definitely feels like disrespected Toyota tame I mean in a
26:01
way you know why why would you want to just feel like you gotta move like out of the way of those
26:06
guys when when you're wanting to be getting those same opportunities to yeah and I know Denny also
26:10
had said after the race that felt like maybe was it the left rear wheel was slightly loose they had
26:17
a similar issue a couple of races ago I forget where it was where it's like the wheel attaches but
26:23
somewhere in there something's not quite right and so the wheel it's sitting there going but it's also
26:27
like sliding slightly so I think that probably hurt his handling a bit um let me definitely
26:34
if it was as bad as he made it sound I'm sure it definitely impacted the handling so that was
26:38
part of it as well but I mean what's crazy is Denny still earned more points than Chase Elliott
26:43
this was the what I thought would be a very rare perfect storm where the race winner earned zero
26:48
stage points and second place not only earned max 20 stage points but also got the fastest lap
26:56
perfect storm that allowed Denny to earn one more point than Chase Elliott did on Sunday so at least
27:02
he can hang your hat on that to some degree and someone else that feel like I'm we're getting
27:08
used to saying this every single week gotta give that at a boy to Ty Gibbs getting a fourth place
27:14
finish in this one four out of the last five races have been a top five for Ty Gibbs the only one
27:21
it wasn't a top five with a sixth place finish well I know five straight he's now found himself
27:28
fixed in the standings Ty Gibbs has well and he's he's tied with Reddick for most top fives he's
27:34
tied with Reddick and Blaney for most top tens he just needs to lead laps and win like that's
27:39
pretty much all that's left at this point for him I feel like the win is closer than people
27:46
realize it's just a matter of having top five speed and having race winning speed at this point
27:54
and Danny is circling Gibbs for Bristol I know he's been setting that up for a few weeks it's a
27:59
good pick it's definitely a good pick uh yeah I still feel like like things seem to be going good
28:05
for Ty right now is the best stretch he's had in his cup career but we've seen him have good
28:09
stretches in the past shoot he won the in season challenge last year even after Atlanta some of
28:14
that was just sort of by default the pieces fell into place but like he's had his good stretches
28:19
followed by tremendous slumps and I just think that's Ty Gibbs I think he rides the highs he also
28:25
gets down to the dumps and simmers on the lows but like right now I mean Ty Gibbs did an hour-long
28:32
podcast interview with Kenny Wallace this week like he doesn't do that like ever I don't think he's
28:37
I'm not sure he's ever done that he's not he's not one to go out in front of the cameras and
28:41
and do all that it was a great interview and actually showed a I think a fun side of Ty Gibbs
28:45
that people should probably check out if they're interested but uh but my point is like when things
28:49
are going good Ty Gibbs is good but the moment he has if Bristol I bet they're circling Bristol too
28:54
if something happens at Bristol a bad pit stop a blown tire maybe they're just off and they run 20th
29:00
or worse if Bristol goes bad I just still feel like it won't take much for Ty to slip back into
29:05
one of those slumps so we'll see I think he needs to get that win soon I think that I think if he
29:09
gets it it's going to be soon whatever setup that Hamlin has had the last few trips to Bristol
29:15
I feel like Gibbs is going to have that setup this time and having a wake off in between here
29:21
and there to kind of fully get prepped for that one just I'm not I'm not quite confident to pull
29:30
the trigger on a prediction later in a show and say that he will win Bristol but I think he's got a
29:36
good shot at it save it for next week well we got another show next week before Bristol you can
29:40
let it simmer let it sit for a few days we won't go back to that no I'm not gonna yeah I don't know
29:44
that that will that's your territory you've marked your Ty Gibbs territory for the time being Danny
29:50
with Ty Gibbs at Bristol is me with Taylor Gray's career right now watch watch I say something like
29:55
that and then Jared's gonna be pulling back like oh yeah Danny you said Carson Hosea Bar would win
29:59
before Ty Gibbs ever did I don't know if I did that or not at this point I could look but uh but
30:05
you know Ty Gibbs played a part with a lot of other drivers in this race like the super teams
30:11
just dominated I said it in my post race like the rich got richer in this race the top nine are all
30:18
Hendrick Gibbs and Penske and 10th is a Penske affiliate that everyone calls the fourth Penske
30:23
car that's true I didn't think of it like that yeah like they you know and then it wasn't like oh yeah
30:29
they all just sort of ended up up there I mean pretty much all of them were getting stage points
30:34
the only ones that were really wrecking the party and getting stage points away from them were SVG
30:39
who I thought had a really good day uh and Ryan Priest like those were the I believe the only two
30:46
non-super power teams they got stage points in this race too but even then like I was watching
30:52
Priest closely and it's like he had a hard time driving past 10th I think they had one bad pit
30:57
stop set him back a little but even when he got back up there he could not break into that top 10
31:01
consistently on that same note Priest got 12th Brad got 13th Buescher got 19th isn't that incredible
31:09
when an off wig for them is that they're still inside the top 20 before the top 10 true I mean
31:16
they're on a good solid stretch right now so right now Brad and Buescher they're all in the
31:24
chase at this time well and it's far cry from where they were where this team was what 10 I imagine
31:32
five years ago five 10 years ago oh sure if I told you yeah if I told you all two or three
31:40
depending on what year of the Roush cars are going to be in the top 16 and points basically if I told
31:45
you that from like any year after Matt Kenseth left the team I don't know if you believe me like
31:50
yeah they had uh 2013 was was decent with there's still good with Biffle and Edwards but it wasn't
31:56
they were really good until yeah they were good until Carl left after 14 because Carl and 14 still
32:01
won a couple races I think and then at that point I think Greg Biffle was the only veteran
32:05
they're trying to hold down the fort but he didn't have when did Biffle win his last race was it
32:10
2014 I was there 2013 Michigan 13 yeah so once Carl left it was really they were done done for
32:17
until Newman had a good year in the six where I think he made the the playoffs there was one
32:24
year I think Ryan Newman pointed his way in and it was like wow okay but outside of that it was
32:28
they were lost until Brad came along and the next gen came along real quick before we move on
32:33
another just pause on Shane Van Gisburgen I don't have his numbers pulled up actually I do have no
32:38
one off top my head so we're seven races into the season Shane Van Gisburgens had two bad races
32:44
this year Daytona I believe he got caught up in a crash it's Daytona that happens throw that one out
32:49
and I'm gonna for the sake of argument throw out Las Vegas where he got loose on the first lap
32:53
and damaged the splitter and was a non-factor take out those two we kind of blow up bad races
32:58
the other five races four of them ovals his average finish this year is eight
33:03
like he's like it's not a surprise it it's not a surprise to see him running top 10 anymore
33:09
what's shocking to me is that he is now on with regularity outrunning Ross Chastain like that's
33:14
whoa what is going on so yeah kudos to Shane he is ahead of schedule like you said
33:19
that's the crazy part is is like 11th if you if you just looked at the box score you're like
33:26
that's a great run if you watch the race you're like he deserved more and and that's crazy to say
33:32
because Ross finished 16th and I'm if I hadn't written his name down in the finishing order
33:39
I wouldn't have known he was out there I never saw him all day long like it's just crazy man
33:46
um you know but should we talk should we talk about the latest beef with the hurricane
33:53
real quick before we get into the the the Bubba Carson beef I want to make it clear
33:59
I don't have beef with Daniel Suarez I apparently I tweeted about him your stats of him apparently
34:06
that's just because I'm a fan that's just because he's been around a long time he's done a lot
34:10
interesting stuff I'm I'm not an anti-Daniel Suarez I don't think I ever had that three tweets is that
34:16
what I heard well I've had him on the show a few times I mean he's done some stuff I probably
34:21
tweeted about him three or four times you know in the last couple of weeks the Ross Chastain
34:27
confrontation so you'll really have beef if if you're tweeting about his wife more than him so I
34:32
don't know oh yeah I believe me that is a fight I will lose so I'm not even gonna try but I got no
34:38
I got no beef that's the point I have absolutely no beef we are all amigos here so anyway I want
34:45
to make that clear one thing I want to make clear is that I think who do I have with my I don't have
34:51
the suck pic last week I'm just checking real quick I don't know I didn't put him down but for
34:55
once Tyler Redick seemed human 15th yeah this is one of his worst tracks I think I looked it up this
35:03
is his average finish at Martin'sville for his career is like 18th or 19th so he's still better
35:08
than his average so yeah that's why they the points things are somewhat closer this week
35:15
yeah but yeah back to the beef bubble Wallace versus Carson Hosevar
35:20
that's not beef that's chicken
35:23
yeah it's true you can get tender from both of them the hearty well you get burgers too right
35:28
hearties and chilies I'm not talking about get all the food from these guys after they finish
35:33
taking each other out of a race fast food food feud gosh try saying that five times fast but
35:39
yeah I mean I think I mean I don't I don't want to speak for all of us but it was
35:43
that looked like a bubble Wallace move he would have made three years ago you know when he hadn't
35:49
won as many races was still kind of had that chip on his shoulder just not seeing the bigger picture
35:53
I get why he was mad at Carson Carson made kind of a very aggressive move into turn one on the
36:00
restart muscle like had a door bubba out of the way like I get bubba being mad Carson has a shot
36:05
coming but you gotta you gotta pick and choose your payback more carefully and bubba just kept
36:09
just throttling up and just drove through him and wrecked himself so think about it like like
36:14
bubba you gotta you gotta step back and remember dude Carson it's 15th of standings you lost eight
36:20
spots fell to 11th when you were sitting you were way up the ladder in the standings you
36:25
flew away your race in the best start of a season you've ever had all because you wanted to wreck
36:33
didn't they well and and like I you know when I went live after the race you know I'm thinking that
36:41
it's going to be one of those instances where you know maybe fox doesn't show the full story and
36:46
then somebody pulls up the on boards and like most of ours is you know banging on his door or
36:51
something or is hitting multiple times or whatever and that was just like the last straw you know
36:57
and I even said I'm like I kind of like that bubba is one of the few drivers who looking back at the
37:03
history between uh hosevar and any other driver doesn't take a shit like he he will he will not
37:09
take it the way that a lot of other drivers will be like I'm gonna get him and then don't do a damn
37:14
thing so I'm thinking that there's like some kind of justification now I I don't think that he was
37:21
like going in to just like wipe him out you know Matt Kenseth Joey Ligano style I watched the in-car
37:28
camera and especially once I got to the middle of the corner like he was he was out of the throttle
37:32
for the most part like he was hitting him a little bit that's just martinsville but he put himself
37:38
in a bad position being mad I think that part is irrefutable and because of that he ended up being
37:45
the one that suffered the most and I believe his teammate was caught up in that and finished like
37:51
way worse than he should have finished in this race again yep yeah it was just a it was just I
38:01
was just one where under the old format you can probably get away with this time of year you know
38:06
where he's at and points all that stuff but under this format I mean like Danny said he dropped from
38:10
third he's technically tied for eighth but it's like a four-way tie so yeah he's like in that
38:14
eight to eleventh range now yeah and I mean I know the standings are still tight it's still early in
38:19
the season but that is I mean that you threw away one of your mulligans or you used one of your
38:23
mulligans right there when you just didn't have to really this Bubba's gotta tone down the aggressive
38:29
stupid aggressive stuff is what cost him to win at atlanta this year you know he he made it through
38:34
a block on host of our he didn't need to make that walk and it and it costed him to win yeah he
38:40
threw that block it was a late block kind of a a little over aggressive on host of our who hung
38:44
him out so yeah I mean so two times this season Bubba could have been sitting in second or third
38:51
place in standings right now but instead by technique by technicalities he found himself
38:56
11th within that four-way tie for eight yeah so just uh I'm not gonna say missed opportunity was
39:03
it an opportunity for cooler heads to prevail yeah I mean I like I gotta be agree like some
39:08
form of payback absolutely justified like Jared was saying like you don't have to put up with
39:12
Carson stuff Carson's gonna knock you out of the way you knocking back but you gotta choose your
39:16
payback I think if a driver if a driver fails to do payback like this instead of you know back
39:23
when you were in school you would have to stay around and rock like a the same sentence like over
39:27
and over like a hunt like a hundred however many times in a row he should he should be forced to
39:33
watch Danica Patrick and Lenin Castle on a loop like 200 times or something like that
39:41
yeah so that brought up a lot well what do y'all think of the racing overall at Martinsville this
39:47
week because I saw I don't know we'll get to the Jared poll in a moment I gave it a lower score
39:52
than usual on my groovy gauge I know the goal was pretty low no yeah it felt it felt like something
40:01
that you know just reminds me we have lost the the funness of Martinsville if that's the word for
40:09
it like but it's mainly just result of this car on short tracks it's it's just very hard to get
40:17
too excited for for Martinsville I don't know it's awesome to be there but watching it on TV
40:27
it's just if it wasn't for the uniqueness of that caution and the gustin thing we would have
40:34
just saw Danny Hamlin dominate this entire race for the most part so we didn't even talk about
40:39
it real quick before I move on what was that move on Blaney I obviously had Blaney as my pick and I
40:46
felt like he had a legitimate shot to beat Hamlin and then he just threw him into the wall
40:52
y'all hear Blaney on did you hear Blaney on serious today I know I just talked I know this
40:58
is gonna sound so hypocritical because I'm over here like you know gotta be cool gotta keep your
41:02
cool play it you know be cautious understand the points but in the case of Blaney he said after
41:08
the he said on serious today that basically he and Danny are cool like he understood where Danny
41:11
was coming from wasn't on purpose he said well we're good and my takeaway after hearing that was
41:15
bro what you just got fence you just got straight up wrecked for third yeah it was an accident I'm
41:20
not saying you go you know drive through Danny the first chance you get but you gotta at least
41:24
file that one away for later and he's like now I'm cool we're good Blaney has a history of that
41:30
exactly that's a lot of times it was an accident Blaney was running that race he runs at Martinsville
41:37
lot where he starts pretty far back has to climb his way up and he legitimately was I think he was
41:42
faster than Hamlin at the end of it and then things didn't work out for everybody it was gonna
41:47
be an interesting battle but yeah to your point here like this isn't the first time this isn't even
41:50
the fifth time Danny is you know basically drifted up the track and put someone in the wall so like
41:55
I again I don't I don't have to go out there and and overdo it and you know right rear or do something
42:01
crazy to Danny but like to just say I don't know we're good and kind of dismiss it what like hell
42:06
like that's that's one you definitely got to file away for later and maybe he is maybe this is
42:09
gamesmanship but I was surprised by how chill Blaney appeared to be this week after the incident
42:15
that's all I know for Hamlin like when at Martinsville just it's different it's just it's his home track
42:21
he obviously proved that how Maddy got at Bowman a couple years ago when Bowman won there it just
42:27
means a lot to him to win the to win there at Martinsville he didn't necessarily have anything
42:31
to be mad at Chase Elliott for because nothing really he could do about that at the end of it
42:37
well kind of going back to the overall racing I so I'm not going to say it was a good race
42:42
but I feel like I'm more positive than most people were on this race and I think it's
42:47
because we had high expectations and we were let down so like I said it was around probably a six
42:52
out of ten race I'd even say five out of ten now with a little more time I honestly didn't think
42:58
it was as bad as a lot of people were saying I didn't think it was good either but when you look
43:02
at spring Martinsville races this is probably the best we've gotten there was a decent amount
43:07
of passing in the first stage the second stage I will say it was a drag I'm not going to defend that
43:13
but I just I I just kind of thought it was mad you know and I think that's I think that's why
43:19
people are more upset if it was just like that race we were at in 22 and everyone was just a
43:24
single file lying the whole time and nobody passed at any point I think people would be like well
43:30
that's next gen Martinsville but I think it's because there was at least some glimmers of hope
43:36
and they were dashed away people are more upset like the tire wear the tires did wear earlier
43:40
in the run than they had before usually it's like 60 laps into a run with the 670 package
43:46
and that's when they start wearing this time I mean you were starting to see more wear
43:50
slowing of times I'd say about 20 30 laps in which is more close to normal Martinsville
43:58
um but I think that's what's kind of pissing people off the most is that like it is a bit
44:02
closer compared to other spring races I'm fully expecting the fall race to be better like because
44:07
that's just how it's been every year and I don't you know it might be the chase this time instead
44:11
of like the win and you're in play off side of it but just that part of your it's better at that
44:16
point it could be a last second push for some guys to like I need to win this race I need to get
44:20
that maximum points to climb at the ladder at that point you know yeah at this point I just I
44:25
can't get excited over any track with concrete corners because they're just so temperamental
44:30
with this car the whatever tire mixture Goodyear's been using the last year or so weather what what
44:37
kind of tire system we're gonna have no we know exactly what tires are gonna have a Bristol we
44:41
don't I don't know if we know the weather yet but like it's gonna come down to the weather it's
44:44
and it doesn't matter really anything else they do it's gonna come down to the weather and if it's
44:47
literally a one or if it's one or two degrees different air temperature it's the difference
44:52
between you know what we saw last fall and last spring it's crazy and I think I could say the
44:57
same about Nashville and to a lesser degree Dover like Nashville in this car we that first year
45:02
when it was cool under the light or wasn't really cool but it was under the lights I don't know how
45:05
that changed things that first year I think chase won that was a great race it was after the rain
45:10
delay that was an awesome race no the first year the next one you mean yeah first year the next
45:14
gen you're right because 2021 I think was the first year they raced natural larson in the sun
45:19
larson dominated it larson led like every lap it was extremely boring and we've had some hit or
45:23
miss next gen races so it's just any concrete corner track at this point I can't get myself get
45:29
excited for because I literally don't know what we're gonna get until I wake up that morning if
45:33
I'm there what's the air like today okay all right we might get a good race like there's really no
45:38
other way to predict that you can't have any expectations on top of that well that's just
45:43
the whole thing it's it frustrates me with the car like I'm seeing like now people like
45:47
martinsville's always sucked and it sucks and no it hasn't you know dover is not always sucked
45:52
like it's the car again and and we we can tread over the same arguments I mean that's basically
46:02
what nascar media has been doing the last week about every single topic we've been treading over
46:05
the same shit whether it's what you think on the hall of fame jared I think it's turning into
46:11
ESPN honestly like that's what I think it is but you know people hate me because it's al jr
46:17
if we're gonna get onto these weird hall of fame texts and I don't know it was once said on this
46:23
show that Eric would be in the hall of fame with a youtuber or something like that whoa whoa whoa
46:28
I never said that whoa don't I didn't say any of us that it was once said on this show the chance
46:34
okay I wasn't trying to start that I was I was being sarcastic but no but I'm just you know I'm
46:40
I just it's it is frustrating but I'm just I'm hoping what I'm hoping is that nascar doesn't do
46:46
the nuclear option that they've done before like with the gen six and and to a lesser degree the
46:51
cot and start changing tracks because the car can't race good at them like I just I don't know if
46:57
it's fix the car or make the gen eight better which will probably just be a face lifted gen seven but
47:02
I'm just I'm I'm I'm with you I mean there's no other way really around it I mean I'm just
47:10
it pisses me off because this is my favorite track I think that's why like the more I thought
47:15
about it the more annoyed I got with it is this is my favorite track I know this track can be better
47:20
I know this track can be the best in nascar in certain years I mean look back at like 2011
47:25
both those races for different reasons were crazy good look back in um great I'm sick again um you
47:33
know 2014 2014 both races were great two vastly different cars uh in in how they drove the gen
47:40
four was great here this has been a track that has been great for 70 years and now this car
47:47
comes around and sucks at it and it just it baffles me I once thought this was the track you couldn't
47:53
screw up and I was I think my favorite martinsville races were those ones in like 2011 2012 that
48:02
particular version of the car tomorrow when you would see they'd go down the straightaway
48:07
and it looked like the car was doing the carolina squat because it was just like raised up so high
48:12
and all of a sudden yeah take me to the corner and just like slam down on the ground that was my
48:16
favorite I love drinking cars um man Jared still hurts thinking of 2011 uh junior junior getting
48:24
past what what four to go I try to forget honestly and then there was the one I think 2012 where
48:31
Newman won it but like Boyer and Gordon wrecked I think someone else wrecked like it was Danny I
48:38
drink to try and forget about those things um what do you think about the stage yellows man
48:44
I mean that the stage one to stage two is especially egregious and I think it's getting
48:48
blown slightly out of proportion only because that was an instance where you had a caution with
48:53
three to go for I forget who was Cody where somebody blew up I don't remember what it was
48:57
I think yeah yeah you got spun out and so you had an extra three or four laps on top of the
49:05
yeah so I think at the end of the day yes we all agree stage cautions are too long but I think
49:10
this was one of those rare instances instances where it was even worse than usual um I don't
49:15
know what to do about it like because because I at the end of the day I've seen the debate it's like
49:20
well tv's got to get their commercials in it and it's like but well you're right tv does have to
49:26
get the commercials I mean they're paying to do it for green flag racing every five laps at
49:30
martinsville anyway what's the difference does it make if we keep it green that's oh like you're
49:35
saying like eliminate stage yeah no I agree we could do that I'm just saying like I was saying
49:40
if they keep stage cautions the way they are now you're right like sorry we're having two different
49:45
discussions now if they kept stage cautions I don't know how you shorten them up that much maybe you
49:50
can shorten them up by 60 seconds slowly but surely that'd be great any bit would help but
49:54
yeah if you're just saying get rid of stage cautions entirely which is a another alternative
49:59
that's where I'm at that's fine but we're gonna end up with more caution or more commercials over
50:02
green flag racing if they do them side by side maybe people will stomach it if they don't they
50:07
won't we'll see it's just it's at the end of the day like people have showed us the data that like
50:11
the number of commercials over in ask our races hasn't really changed in 25 years but we all hate
50:17
it so much more now because the rest of media has changed so what we've been 25 years exactly we've
50:23
now all been conditioned to skip ads after five seconds or two yeah so it's it's just tough it's
50:29
one of those ways broadcasts haven't fully adapted to the new modern era I'm betting you guys in their
50:35
late 20s and early 30s back at the start of the 2000s in the 90s they didn't care all right time
50:41
for me to get up and get another beer or something like that where it's like now like you know we're
50:47
getting pissed about that's my point though is that that Fox especially but I would say even
50:52
TNT and NBC prime is in a different category because of just how different it all is but
50:57
yeah they still put commercials especially early in the races over green flag racing anyway sometimes
51:03
they'll just come back for three laps even at a track like Bristol or Martinsville and then go back
51:07
to commercial so my point is what difference does it make because they're already doing it they're
51:12
already going to do it they're doing more side by side anyway we're starting we're really winning
51:16
that battle let's keep it green let the let the flow of the race go I would have really helped
51:22
Darlington if they just kept the race flow going because the tire strategy and the different you
51:27
know ways they were going about it I honestly think it would add more stakes to the race because
51:33
if somebody does an alternate strategy get stage points and then it fails like they end up like
51:41
yeah sure they might get three stage points but then they end up two or three laps down because
51:46
they had to pit when nobody else did like to me that adds that adds you know gravity and stakes to
51:52
it so I'm all I'm all four kind of going more I guess back to our roots like NASCAR was saying
51:58
earlier this year let's do it yeah I mean I I like awarding stage points throughout the race
52:05
even though we're no longer in the playoff point era I still think it's nice that you know dominant
52:10
drivers get a little extra in the bank in case something goes horribly wrong with two to go
52:14
like I like that but I'm with you at this point I think most tracks you can even make the arguing
52:18
all tracks it's just stay green you like award the points as they cross the line let them keep rolling
52:23
and see where it plays out I think we're getting to that point now where yeah it's it's it's just too
52:28
long it's too tedious well speaking of stage points right now Ryan Blaney has the most stage
52:36
points that I'm seeing and it gives a good chance to just talk about the points standing real quick
52:40
we kind of touched on it briefly but we can focus on it just a little better yes this is the correct
52:44
one thank you Jarrett for pulling up this graphic Ross just saying it's Austin Cendrick right now
52:49
did they actually put this on the air because I had to I was live I was there was a live reaction
52:55
of me I I think I like looked over and like oh they had the point what what dawg and then
53:01
I'm like are you serious Fox and Amy award nominated even Chris Myers was like
53:08
in the nicest way was like what the hell are you guys doing and I get it like a flub but
53:13
I just loved it like where did they get those where did they get these points from like what like I
53:18
understand it's obviously just the numerical order the points are correct but somehow some way well
53:23
they're not they're not no the points are wrong too they're the points from after Las Vegas oh that's
53:29
okay now I'm how are they two weeks off
53:34
yeah you're right okay sorry how are they two weeks off I mean that that is that is like a
53:40
special kind of terrible get this off the screen Jarrett people like there we go there's the right
53:46
ones yeah that's like the test graphic that like they're just trying to try stuff out and I just
53:51
put them in an order of number less than two months till prime
53:57
anyway here's the real points yes I don't read it still the points later and he will probably
54:03
state a point later for quite a long time until someone can come near him and wins
54:08
the big mover of this group we already talked about was Bubba dropping a bunch of spots I mean
54:13
interesting interesting point the top four are all the winners
54:20
yeah so it's not winning you're in by any means but winning extra points compared to
54:27
previous generations of the chase and and point standings they're making a difference I mean if
54:33
they didn't have the added what is it 15 points compared to last year William Byron would be
54:40
had a chase out here right now and it might not make a difference now but good after-day toner
54:46
but I mean this gives you an idea of how much wins really matter when you look at
54:50
Ty Gibbs and Tyler Reddick they are even on top fives and top tens Ty Gibbs has one DNF
54:58
where Reddick does not have a DNF but Ty Gibbs and Tyler Reddick so similar on that and
55:05
four win difference makes 131 point difference
55:11
and then there's also the cut line yeah go to the next page yeah Shane Bank is Bergen being
55:18
ahead of all the spire cars being five positions ahead of his teammate Chastain that's pretty
55:24
significant Austin Syndrick though back-to-back top 10 finishes they've had top 10 speed almost
55:29
every week but stuff always seems to happen they've had two clean races now and boom he's gone from
55:35
30th to 18th he's right back in the chase picture so good for him and point wise he's still close
55:42
like yeah I don't know if it's over if it's like overboard for me to say this this early
55:47
but I think based on just how slow he's been compared to other years like I personally think
55:54
it's time to be worried about Ross Chastain maybe not about missing it but I don't see him getting
55:59
higher than this page at this point I don't I don't feel confident about anyone below Chase
56:08
Briscoe truthfully getting near that cut line well Briscoe what I mean what what's what the hell is
56:14
up with that team they were awful and they had not deserve a 14th place finish they had an awful
56:20
start to the season but because they were back in like the low 30s so they are climbing but but
56:27
this race they were running awful until like the end when he got back on the lead lap and he was
56:33
able to make a few spots but I just the one in the 19 teams right now perplexed me it's it really
56:43
does feel like the 19 swapped something with the 54 it really does I'm not too worried about either
56:49
yet I mean I don't think either a champ I think they're both out of the championship conversation
56:52
at this point which is for at least for Briscoe that's a big disappointment but I'll say I think
56:58
Briscoe they're gonna keep getting better they just are I think Ross Chastain I think Ross Chastain
57:04
is gonna keep getting better too because remember he is a new crew chief and I think I mean Kyle
57:08
Bush is going through some pains with his crew chief I mean Connor Zillich has I mean that's a
57:12
new crew chief they brought Randall Burnett over and they are struggling right now so you know there
57:19
might be something too you know having an instability or having that that turnover that's
57:24
taken some time to adjust we've said this before for for Ross it feels like it texts him until
57:30
Kansas coax 600 weekend to figure it out and get them to winning spade again here's where where my
57:37
worry with Ross is last year they ran kind of similar maybe a little bit better for the most
57:44
part but for most races were in that ninth to 15th range a lot of the time except mile and a half
57:53
and they didn't run at all good at Las Vegas and they don't really have as much time to figure it
57:58
out Kansas is the race after Bristol Texas where he arguably I think is as fast as consistently
58:07
is two races after that and then two points races after that is the 600 in Nashville right after so
58:14
they need to get it figured out quick especially at those tracks because those were the saving grace
58:19
for that one team a lot last year and maybe it's ECR in general I mean it seems like if you're not
58:26
Hendrick powered unless you're the 41 uh you're you're out to lunch with the new Chevy body I'm
58:32
checking back in on about where Ross was a year ago and last year he finished eighth at Atlanta
58:41
he finished fifth at Vegas sixth at Martinsville seventh at Darlington seventh at Bristol second at
58:48
Texas um third in the all-star race one to coke 600 and he had a summer where he just flat out
58:58
fuck he had 26 33rd there's a 33rd there's a 39th
59:05
I mean it's just but they had a decent enough start last year that they didn't have to worry
59:12
about a summer you know that that's a track so he's has difficulty at so like I I still think
59:17
the 19 I think is going to make sure I think he'll probably even get up to the top 10 at points but
59:22
top 10 is not good enough you know you got to be top three to five at at lowest
59:27
in a weird way because I've seen not necessarily last year but I feel like in other seasons
59:32
passed from Chastain if there was ever going to be a driver that could like Tony Stewart 2011
59:39
to staying and do not good and then flip it on for the chase it could be a Chastain
59:45
yeah but he'd be so far back I mean something track houses can do that at this point if you're
59:51
if if you're past 10th and points you start the chase over a race where the points back
59:56
yeah that's and to my opinion that's insurmountable Stewart had to make up 12 points on the lead
00:02
that started the chase in 2011 like Ross would have to make up like 70 that's true you could do with
00:09
the winds it's going to be difficult saying how this year plays out is going to make a big difference
00:16
on what NASCAR does with the chase moving forward they might they might end up overhauling that
00:21
that amount of points coming into I don't think they should what why should they I mean if they're
00:25
if they're barely scraping by to be top 10 they shouldn't be if they don't get the show that
00:30
they want they're going to do something properly I think I would like to think they at least thought
00:37
about that before putting this system in if they didn't think about that and they're like yeah yeah
00:40
that'll make people happy for the announcement then I like there's bigger problems than the
00:49
ratings go this week it's a good question I don't know uh yes I do actually Cup race scored 2.394
00:57
million viewers which is down 1.2 percent year over year very very close on that which it's bad
01:04
for me still down I have a prediction needs to be up but it's still down but however it is the
01:09
second highest spring Martinsville viewership since 2019 and as for the O'Reilly series race
01:17
uh it scored 1.198 million viewers which is up 18 percent year over year
01:24
and it's actually the most watched spring O'Reilly auto parts series race ever
01:30
Granada hasn't been a lot of those in its history at Martinsville but it is the most
01:35
watched spring Martinsville O'Reilly race ever good for them don't we not very often we say
01:41
that about NASCAR viewership anymore but the podium effect more that matters than that is what does
01:50
our lovely audience of nwp slash random people who get Jared's community tab polls for some reason
02:02
that's that's the poll uh yeah uh so about 10,000 11,000 voted I had to have double checked
02:09
it's 10,000 no I I haven't checked in two days I think I see I checked on like the the numbers but
02:16
I totally forgot of like count the amount of votes uh 11 percent said great 52 percent said good so
02:22
63 percent net positive 31 percent average six percent negative so 63 percent when it comes to
02:31
net positive I'm looking down here uh that would be the third lowest
02:37
Darlington polled race ever uh only ahead of 2021 spring race and last year's spring race
02:45
I think you just said Darlington on accident no Darlington sorry Martinsville I should say
02:51
um I actually fit lowest um funny enough it's actually ahead of all of the spring races in
03:00
the next gen era so fans thought it was the best that's surprising because I would have thought
03:05
this was on par with or even slightly behind last year's spring race yeah maybe that's just
03:11
because denny beat chase last year this year chase beat denny that's got to be worth a few points
03:16
that probably does it does give it a few points just a few just a few uh but still I mean like
03:24
it's crazy all the ones behind it are 22 23 24 25 spring and then the 2019 fall race which was a
03:34
550 race that's kind of crazy um the first comment was from xj talks was a positive negative or
03:46
mean I think they are a chase elite fan this can be a very positive one so my gut went positive
03:51
but I I know I never get these right but okay let's see welcome back phantom cautions damn it
04:01
um holden says uh and this was the top comment to quote richard children's we need some better
04:07
race cars in regards to chastain three straight top 20s but we need more speed man good run for
04:14
svg coming home 11 today he carried track house uh blue jimmy says elliot vans will still find a way
04:22
to say fire alan gufson we'll find out uh john says short track package is still horrible
04:32
due chronic says i'm with clad and vermont says I don't feel bad for denny one bit
04:38
and then there's the gutter comment from ghosty 117 says average mickey win for the golden boy
04:48
this season is a joke as expected people aren't happy when toyota is winning they're not happy
04:54
when chase elliot wins why don't when are people happy they're happy when they're watching nwp the
05:00
nascar that's right yes that's exactly right so shortly about the the future hall of famer here
05:10
i mean he's uh he's now boost himself to six on the all-time wins list with this one
05:19
um you know we've talked about the domination of reddick so far in cup series but we're not
05:24
talking enough about the domination of justin allgaier in the orally series so far this year
05:29
to defending no no this is our one of championship two years ago um he might be setting himself up as
05:35
a clear favorite to win this year's championship now he's he's now 92 points ahead of the defending
05:43
champion jesse love right now with three wins and then the only two regulars who have wins beside
05:49
him is austin hillan shelled and creed yeah i mean he's been he's been great i mean it's back to
05:57
back wins for allgaier now three for the first seven i said this live i mean i was gonna sound
06:02
like i'm super anti allgaier allgaier deserves a ton of credit but remember what we talked about
06:07
coming into this year the orally series lineup was very wonky like we all agreed it's top heavy
06:15
it's got allgaier vet champion jesse love really good austin hill that wins wins a lot of super
06:23
speedway races you know then the shelled and creeds and brandon jones's and maybe sam mayors but beyond
06:28
that a lot of these good cars like a hendrick car driven by a 20 an unproven 20 year old uh jgr
06:34
gave the keys to the their owners points winning car to a 17 year old like there's a lot of very
06:40
young unproven i mean nick sanchez got booted for an eye doctor who is like 15 20th in points as expected
06:47
like all the like i think there's realistically only five or six guys this year that look like
06:52
they could win a championship i think there's a few like the sammy smiths the taylor graze
06:57
that are on that bubble but again those are two guys i mean taylor gray has one career win i think
07:02
sammy has won guy who's fifth in the standings carcent qualpa doesn't even drive that car all year
07:08
i mean technically sammy smith has that win yes that was the rock that was the rocking him yep uh
07:15
and then there's yeah roger cruz carcent qualpa who are splitting their time between rides who
07:19
you might be in that picture but like these are all young rookies or unproven or few wins in this
07:25
so i do feel like it's the perfect storm for a guy like all guy i mean look who's won the races
07:29
this year it's just an all-guy or austin hill uh shelled and creed finally that that all those
07:36
years of o'reilly experience paid off and he's got it like it's all the veterans larson comes
07:40
down and gets a win it's all the vets like jessie love has jessie love hasn't even won a race yet
07:46
you know he's second of all it's a great year so i just i feel like it's the perfect
07:50
environment for the vets like all guy to just dominate early in the year and that's what he's
07:54
doing well i will say that uh in second in the race i believe was quarry day and he has him i i
08:03
think there's been a pretty good improvement so far and i'm not saying he's going to go on this level
08:08
i want i want to preface what i'm about to say oh boy first but if you look back at last year
08:15
with connor zillich and this year with day day is starting way better in connor zillich did
08:20
outside of the win like when you look at outside the win connor zillich was struggling for top
08:25
tens early on and then got it figured out now i don't think quarry day is going to go that far
08:29
i don't think he's connor zillich level but i do think he's good enough that he could rattle
08:35
off a few wins by the end of the year especially as he refines it more he's going to run into people
08:40
like i just that he's he's in the same vein as larson and larson does the same thing but
08:46
he could be a sneaky option he's got a hundred car which will always be a threat he does have a
08:53
ton of talent and he's cleaned it up in recent weeks and looking at the stat line he is tied
09:00
for most top tens with sammy smith and justin allgaier this year so he might be somebody
09:07
worth watching as they get into the summer and towards the end of the year he's currently seventh
09:11
in the point standings so it's not and it's not unrealistic that he could get up to third and
09:16
points and challenge like it's not he's currently 148 back in the lead i don't know if he's kept
09:22
getting that but he's 32 behind shelton cretin i think if he figures it out and that team figures
09:28
it out that's doable agree no i think i think some of these young guys are going to get better as
09:34
the year goes on i my thing was just right now there's a lot of inexperience a lot of the best
09:39
cars have very inexperienced drivers behind the wheels and so that just gives justin allgaier
09:45
an early season advantage and and he's made the most of it to his credit leap holyam though uh
09:50
not a young guy but new to the o'reilly series um ran great the junior motorsports put him in the
09:56
nine top five all day in contention for the win he was a little rocky on some restarts you could
10:02
see him either spinning the tires having a tough time getting up through the gears and then finally
10:05
he just blatant just missed a shift and unfortunately caused a huge wreck i didn't think this was
10:10
i was watching this race thinking like you know yeah there's been some spins there's been some
10:14
contact but it's been a pretty like just good straightforward martinsville race by o'reilly
10:18
standards i was like when is this going to devolve into something messy when are we going to see that
10:22
that the the low light that everyone talks about all week and then the pile up on the restart
10:28
happened i went out there it is i was waiting for the o'reilly series to happen there it is
10:31
you know what it was it was and nothing will go wrong oh no it all went wrong yeah and that's what
10:38
it was yeah and it's just i mean we see guys miss shifts i mean denny kind of sort of spun the
10:43
tires and one of the last ones are in the cup race but but yeah it's just you know as much experience
10:48
as leap holyam has i mean there are other people in the garage that would know better than me but
10:53
i feel like everyone in the industry would vouch for the guy he's got the skill he's got the talent
10:56
he's put in the work over the years he's more or less in his comfort zone at martinsville but
11:01
as much experience as he has it's still tough when you put these new guys in these cars for
11:06
the first time you know they're gonna make some mistakes and unfortunately this one cost a half
11:09
a dozen or more cars you poke in the barrel a little bit do you think uh do you think that
11:14
would have happened if he had 10 hours of testing well i was full i mean no i don't think so he'd
11:21
had more restart testing no probably does not happen but yeah uh but i don't i don't think that
11:29
they should like they should leave martinsville by any means no that was some people were saying
11:33
that after the race but like how the hell does the truck series routinely put on better races than
11:39
than oriole here like especially when it comes to relatively clean racing well either not great
11:44
by any means but it's just you know does austin hill need to stand back up and start talking
11:49
about clean racing again to them or something i mean i didn't think this was a bad i thought that
11:55
one big pile up obviously was you know that that created a lot of attrition but i was more
12:02
offended if you will by last year's spring race by far than i was this year's spring yeah so i
12:07
mean i don't know they're getting there they're working on it i don't you know i i don't mind
12:12
seeing the oriole series here twice a year uh you say you're offended by that i'm offended at the
12:18
fact that the wives have already read off some of our super chats but we do need to take a super
12:23
chat stage break and finish finish where they left off yeah um they actually got up to um
12:33
was it pac-man yeah i know they did they did something about the brewers fan i remember that
12:40
i think it's a clip so is where we pick up with her april fools joke
12:46
pire her april fools joke pires the carabin four and five i don't hate it because i'm not as
12:52
familiar they're not good at least not not as good as the first yeah not the first three are great but
13:01
yeah never racing fan appreciate the two dollars do not fire ellen ghoston his call won the race he
13:07
did he did win the race i'm not saying this should fire him i'm saying don't transfer him
13:12
48 car go ahead jenison appreciate the 20 very generous of you jenison i usually watch
13:18
nvp live and then again if the wife have to work she'll definitely get a kick out of today the
13:22
wives segment of the episode aloha everyone aloha to you and hawaii jenison good to hear from you
13:28
appreciate done appreciate the five dollars from you bring the girls back and eric did you
13:33
name your dog after the basis of ghosts no but that's a good that's a nice poll as well no we
13:41
named him cosmo i forget why we like the name but the idea was i don't know we like something
13:48
space theme because he's very dark he's like mostly all black we want something we have a
13:52
problem kind of stuff like that yeah emily and i met in houston we live we live in dalis now but
13:57
like you know i kind of like to tie into that one of our friends has a dog named apollo and we
14:02
thought that was a really cute name or i can't steal that or like what's another space theme name
14:06
for our you know black dog and we sell it on cosmo so he's not named after anyone it's funny
14:11
young people our age and younger are like oh cosmo like cosmo and wanda like the fairly odd parents
14:16
whereas like my parents generation older i think i think there's a character is it from is it from
14:23
seinfeld or friends one of those sitcoms there's a character named cosmo that people are always like
14:27
oh that's who it's saying i'm like no i've never never seen it i've never seen a sign sign so i've
14:33
it's not that's not who he's named after fun fact uh i was there for that picture being taken
14:37
because that's the drum that they do the skull chant on okay deal and uh one more fun fact here
14:44
for you cosmo is that your name of a russian space dog and marvel's gardens of the galaxy
14:52
yes honestly that actually that played a role as well because i am a guardians of the galaxy fan
14:56
i jokingly will call him cosmo the space dog but but yes if you ever did get a girl dog to go with
15:03
cosmo wanda would be appropriate as well that's probably true uh we'll do a few more because
15:08
i know we exaggerate on that one way too long michael b appreciate the five dollars this bit
15:13
was amazing well done to the ladies yes thank you to the wives for uh for having held down the fort
15:19
robbie racer appreciate the four nine loose wheel and pit call aside chase still had
15:23
80 laps to hold off a charging denny hamlin more than anything i'm proud he didn't burn up his tires
15:28
yeah he did do his part as a driver yep good point never racing appreciate the five dollars fox
15:34
was awful sunday boyer saying all of hamlin was on fire uh harvard blaming jimmy little i don't
15:41
remember that but chestin leading that's funny chestin leading points 500 percent zoom shots at
15:48
martinville hey i will give him credit they uh i talked about the trains and i enjoyed that part
15:54
i knew you would danie yeah i thought of you as soon as that came oh yeah immediately i was like i
16:00
was gonna have to text you like get to your tv are you watching if you say appreciate the four
16:04
nine nine how many current cup drivers do you guys think are on a hall of fame trajectory how many
16:11
are already locks um i think anyone who's won a championship is a lot hamlin cow bush legano
16:20
their locks yeah hamlin as well um i'm not gonna say as many i think i am calm young because
16:29
they've been around for like 10 years now like i can't say yet that like bell has i think he's like
16:37
he's on a jackery yeah um i'm like looking through but like i'll go ahead say larson's a lock even
16:46
though he's you know yeah definitely if you've won a cup title the only one maybe that's not a lock
16:52
yet is blaney i don't know how many career wins he's up to but i think even if you want a cup
16:56
championship i'll still put blaney in there for now yeah i think if you've won a cup championship
17:01
you're in um and blaney's gonna win more races so i think he's safe i think bell is on a trajectory
17:08
i think reddick maybe got a little later start but he's he's based on this season alone i like
17:14
where tyler reddick's headed um i think i think what it's all said and done i got like byron's
17:22
probably gonna make it to yeah i mean back to back daytona this is notable but i think i think the
17:28
real question is an owner and driver now and champion like oh we've had this debate so i don't
17:33
mean to get into it again but like austin dylan you know he's won a lot of big races championships
17:40
in the lower series years after a lot of these guys maybe he gets a spot in there like he doesn't
17:46
feel like a hall of famer i don't think he would pass my test to get into the hall of fame but i
17:52
could see his name on the ballot out of guys that and then he's on the ballot that's a thing
17:57
because for so long they did five getting in that you burned through it show him like yeah like i feel
18:03
like now should probably be the time that somebody like terry labani or baby labani gets in not like
18:09
five or seven years ago or never yeah you know and it's like you burned through so many and like
18:15
yeah like you know they talk i think they brought up harvick he's gonna be uh and i'm he'll be first
18:21
ballot easy you know but i don't know man and i i there are some guys that i don't know about
18:32
um like baba is one of those guys i don't know about i mean on one hand for what he's done as you
18:39
know for what it is he's a african-american driver with most wins in sport in ascar you know
18:46
yeah but i mean yeah i don't think that'll be enough i don't think his race should get him in alone
18:50
off that yeah i think i think wendell scott's in for being the kind of the barrier breaker i guess
18:56
to be fair when he did it it was a little different oh no i'm saying like wendell scott like
19:02
i think what i'm saying is he had to overcome more and is kind of like like he has one cup
19:07
win that wouldn't get you in the hall of fame under most other circumstances but considering
19:10
what he had to overcome it does uh like i think i think the fact that danica's not in and has never
19:15
even been on the ballot to my knowledge is like you know yeah you know she never won like baba
19:21
does have two wins in the cup or three wins in the cup series that's just a that's just a cup if
19:26
it's the cup series only champion if the cup series only hall of fame maybe not but it is all
19:31
in ascar he didn't get you know plenty of wins in the lower series too yeah i don't know how many
19:37
we could go on with that one for a long time but thank you for that one
19:44
shorty uh pj i'm good to hear from you uh you were really going on i can't really read all of this
19:50
but uh but thank you for voicing your uh your frustrations there about it
19:58
yeah um and we'll end on this one here because i thought that was good van bonnie sport appreciate
20:03
my boy chase got it done this week i won $2,200 because of it cha-ching and i get to drive my
20:11
zamboni tonight maybe god does love me god does love you brother he loves all of us and i hope you
20:16
all know that but that's it for the super chat stage break and um guys it's it's been getting
20:24
a little warmer around here i don't know if you've been noticing that or anything um eric i've actually
20:29
been seeing some some storms on the forecast for next week when i'm supposed to come see you guys
20:33

21:18
link down below vote for my mom jamie lundberg to be the be the nurse that throws out the first

21:49
next week we will be on my channel uh at 8 p.m eastern time on april 8th on eight crazy eight
21:59

22:05
request speculation i do side uh i can just send out the check twitter make sure there's no
22:10
breaking nascar news there is some weird breaking news here nasa official site will take a few hours
22:15
to troubleshoot a toilet on the artemis rocket that launched the thing ah that sucks big block the
22:22
toilet the first i don't i don't know what that means this is all it says that nasa official
22:27
site will take a few hours to troubleshoot the artemis toilet what are we troubleshooting
22:31
is it flush was it was it not do how about say like if they close it like would you not
22:37
shit yourself if you were shot up into space like i know i would it's probably already in the
22:42
fire suits anyways at that point but all seriousness though that's so badass like
22:49
yeah freaking lembian and american um we what's the what's the request speculation on on uh on tap
22:57
tonight uh according to svg via a video from our good friend peter strada marcus ambros is coming
23:08
over soon now what does that mean as marcus wanting to try his hands at racing in nascar again
23:16
or does that mean he's coming over for a visit that could mean a lot of different things i'd love
23:24
to see him do a one-off like especially the road course that are bristol he was always strangely
23:29
good at bristol he was he definitely yeah and michigan he had some good runs at michigan too
23:36
heck put uh put marcus in one of the uh the collie ram trucks at bristol see what happens
23:42
i mean and two you know we like montoya came back and ran a race too so i guess you like do
23:47
chronic saying that you know marcus is too old but i'd be down with the one off i need to hold
23:53
the zone these old school racers they want to know they want to know what the next gen drives like
23:58
we saw we saw biffle do it in 22 um or was it 23 i don't remember which one now but we saw we saw
24:05
montoya tries hand at it we've uh we've seen some guys come back and tried her hands at it we got uh
24:13
kasey mirrors he's he's gonna drive the 62 car and try to get up to his 500 start that's right yeah
24:21
i keep forgetting montoya came back for a one-off a couple years ago i keep forgetting he did that
24:26
that was kota right i don't know all teams yeah was kota or was it the glenn i couldn't remember
24:33
was it was it kota when there's like all those people in that one race because he had like um
24:37
jordan taylor in that one race oh no that was maybe ashi was in that was kobe ashi right that was
24:43
kamui kobe ashi so maybe it was walkins glenn was walkins clan the chat would know yeah they would
24:48
know yeah i got the 50 that gold 50 car mixed up that and uh good pack right here jay mc murray
24:56
doing a seat pour today i can't tell if this is just a great elaborate april so he he posted it
25:02
yesterday he got like picked up and noticed today but i went back i mean i think i was like oh i didn't
25:08
really follow jay mc murray i went back and looked through his thing i'm like oh no he posted the
25:11
original post yesterday so it's not april fools i don't know what he's getting seated up for jay jay
25:19
ailey had a good april fools today i actually i put it for about an hour in the itinerary
25:25
because i was like oh y'all i just skimmed through and i'm like oh you're tired and i'm like
25:29
wait a minute it's a fools day as you read it and then you look at the entry list and there he is
25:35
in the five car for a rally this weekend well i think it was like you know after that race and
25:40
whatever and i'm just like hmm but i'd be i'd be down with marcus giving it a shot i feel
25:47
he was 10 years ahead of his time like if he had come in if he had at that age come into nascar in
25:54
2019 dude he'd be put he'd be putting up some more numbers to svg
25:59
go ahead uh good catch here about peter he said jay me son races modified could be a race of him
26:05
that'd be cool that would definitely could be i i also uh say no colma said jay mc murray to the 48
26:12
maybe all darryl can't do all the races i don't know did mc murray he drove he drove a dodge way
26:19
back in the day right yep he was the ganassi he won his very first race with uh dodge yeah that's
26:24
right so maybe he is a candidate for for that ram 25 seat at some point who knows who knows
26:32
well it's fun we should have some more fun yeah we should the wives already have all the fun
26:39
we need to do fun too all right well
26:44
in the p predictions each host will make two nascar motorsports or show related predictions
26:49
the predictions are kept track each week in our accountability session which is what you're watching
26:54
now we love to keep our predictions relatively concise and within a few years time jarrett
27:01
what how do we look and then there's no money in here fun about the whole thing won't you get that
27:08
oh i got it uh jarrett you have two red ones here conard zillish will win a poll
27:15
in his first 10 cup starts he has not and taylor gray will lead the most laps at martinsville
27:21
does he even lead a lap uh no it was an uncharacteristically mediocre run yeah and there's no money in here
27:32
eric you are leading the prediction standings for the year 58.33 there's your repeating percentage
27:40
jarrett second 41.18 percent and i am in third 35.71 percent hold up better not single digit
27:50
percentage i was a couple years ago but because of the way things have shook out uh jarrett you're
27:55
getting a little bit closer in the all-time standings to us you are 36.89 percent eric you
28:01
are 33.49 percent and there i am in third at 32.55 percent eating into that gap slowly but surely
28:14
so what's the order we uh we predict here i've kind of forgotten i think eric and me than you
28:18
okay um i'll go i'll start with this one because it kind of piggybacks off one of our first hour
28:27
topics uh i'm gonna come out and say it i think shane van gisburgen will finish this year ahead
28:32
of ross chastain in the points oh i like that you do uh so there's been a lot of talk about the
28:41
ratings and they've been very close to different points i'm gonna make this prediction bristol
28:47
will be up in ratings this year i think it was uncharacteristically down last year
28:52
i think that they're gonna carry a bit more i think the gap is closed already from last
28:57
year's viewership to this year i mean 26 000 is a big number in and of itself but that also when
29:05
you look at the grand scale of millions of viewers is kind of negligible it's basically flat from
29:11
last year i think bristol's gonna be up as for my prediction cladius mcfarland will not
29:20
complete 50 laps at rockingham oh oh this comment section is going to be a nuclear wasteland if my
29:28
comment wasn't enough oh jeez i mean he only got what daytona the finished yeah four five at daytona
29:37
in the truck but but he got 10 hours of that's a funny reply that's i mean he got 10 hours of
29:45
testing he said he ran 250 laps on top of whatever he's done in the sim i he's gonna he's gonna make
29:51
it he'll make the most you could also get uh like a austin hill teammate something happened
29:58
something could go wrong and it's a whole lot different in testing and being out there on the
30:04
racetrack hey that's true that's true all right that's all the other cars out there i mean i i'm
30:11
rooting for him but that's not that's not crazy he did stand out on his own out there too that's
30:17
true he didn't he did have a little lazy spin in testing good save yes yes again a lot different
30:23
when there's 37 other cars out there okay is it back to me yeah back to you is it my turn
30:32
kori le joy takes a lot of heat i feel like i end up being like i'm not even the kori le joy
30:37
defender i'm the kori le joy realist social media thinks he's a bum i've never said he's great
30:43
he's not a bum i think he'll be the best finishing ram truck friday that's not unrealistic what just
30:55
a both rocking ham winners past tech okay i i would hope that's last year i mean it's kind
31:06
of a layup but yeah i mean it didn't last year there were you know okay all right wait that's
31:11
that's true who who actually won i kind of forgot desi love love that's that's what it was yep
31:19
i forgot that yep you're right again i don't feel like i can lock this in for bristol but i'll go
31:27
ahead and just say ty gibbs will win his first cup series race before the coke 600 i'll go
31:35
that i'll go that far i told you to let one last year or version of the marinate i already had this
31:40
wrote down before the show so i know but i'm just thinking like damn all right i'll say before the
31:47
coke 600 ty gibbs will win a race good deal that is fun i guess we're gonna tread over ground that's
31:56
already been tread in this one but screw it let's do it let's go to random driver of the week congrats
32:04
to it to claudia getting daniel suarez that was that was a good pull well played would now it's time
32:10
for would jeremy enough to do daniel suarez for us you should make the guess danie nobody's gotten
32:16
it on zero clues before make the guess commit i'll i'll try it daniel suarez yes daniel suarez
32:23
correct i'm fucking with you know April balls that that i literally just wanted to be funny i was
32:31
like there's no way would be the damn i actually thought there was a chance that would have been
32:35
funny honestly that would have been funny uh we won't count that as a guess no i i think we can
32:42
that's fine yeah so eric leads 38 37 over danie uh he has three of the last five with tony stewart
32:50
brad sweet and natalie decker i got y'all on speedy thompson it's been a bit danie but you got
32:56
him on kevin le page i did get him on kevin le page le paged me all right let's get this going
33:04
we have 19 clues this random driver was born in germany nothing
33:20
no one wants to try on the first clue again this week i'm what the german drivers are not coming
33:29
to my mind right now this random driver grew up in monaco until he was the age of eight
33:42
this random driver has run the 24 hours of daytona the 24 hours lima and the snowball derby
33:50
not that that what's this polar bear doing in arlington texas
33:57
this random driver's last nascar start was 2016 so chat you're all wrong
34:06
okay they haven't gotten it yet this is a this is a good one this these are some good clues
34:10
all over the damn map right now they were they were locked in with their pick and it ain't the
34:15
right one 2016 last nascar start yep none of us have ever tweeted about this random driver not
34:22
even 63 times that don't shock me uh i got the numbers for you for for this random driver
34:31
this may help us here i'm ready one three five six eight nine 12 13 14 15 27 30 62 77 98 99
34:59
in nascar this random driver has run chevy's forwards and toyotas thank you for the dodges and
35:07
the toyotas this random driver made one career cup start 2014 at walkins glenn
35:28
i feel like he has one but he doesn't want to pull the trigger yet i don't i don't i'm stupid dude i
35:34
don't know anyone from germany man this random driver also made 38 o'reilly starts
35:45
this random driver's best o'reilly points finish was 12
35:52
this random driver had won o'reilly series win at road america
35:59
oh that road america goodness trying to think of everyone who would have ever won there
36:21
this random driver made 54 truck starts with two wins
36:27
54 truck starts two wins this jack got it yet i imagine they probably have yeah
36:36
those wins were at michigan and las vegas michigan and vegas so he had some oval prowess
36:48
mm-hmm oh man who would he have won those races for these numbers
36:58
this random driver troven formula e and formula one
37:07
i'm gonna i'm gonna kick myself when you say it but i'm
37:14
this random driver scored one podium in f1 a second place finish at hockenheim ring
37:28
this random driver won two formula e races as well very diverse racing past
37:35
the point you said is dude's race lamar and the snowball i about fell out of my chair
37:41
i'm really i'm really mad that i don't know who this is
37:47
this random driver while born in germany is a brazilian native nelson piquet jr correct
37:56
yep that damn german clue is the biggest red herring that was from me off i knew i was thinking
38:03
of brazilian guys but you know the nine that kept coming back to my mind before nelson because
38:09
so close to germany hermon kuroga kept coming to my mind for some reason
38:14
uh the earlier on they were the chat was locked in on rock and feller okay i thought
38:21
mike rock and feller briefly too i don't even know if he's from germany he just feels like
38:24
maybe he could have been i don't know the last clues were that this random driver is the son
38:30
of an f1 driver and a brother-in-law of a nascar driver that would have gave it away with swaras
38:36
yeah so there was a connection to the random drivers this week oh right you're done
38:44
the funny part is risk didn't know who the random driver was and she didn't tell me who
38:49
she was doing for the random driver until today so that was completely coincidental
38:55
but there was a connection happy little accident oh no common brother is that what we're calling julia
39:01
that i think is kind of rude no common driver kuroga never won who did nelson pick a win that
39:09
rode america race with i have to double check i didn't i don't like to put the too many details
39:15
in because i don't want to give it away to self nelson pick a road america so i was looking up
39:24
eric and danny now tied 38 all and i'm still tied with the guests 7 7 oh he won that in the 30 for
39:35
turner scott i think i put emphasis on the 30 and i knew it was something important i didn't
39:42
realize it was that one well i saw 12 on this list so i was thinking maybe maybe it was like a
39:46
pensky or something like that but fun that was that was fun good deal well played it was all right
39:57
let's go to the rock if you're somehow not that kind i want a rock rock all right so
40:09
got a few things to talk about for this week at rockingham so we can notes am racing's number 25
40:17
of nick sanchez has been withdrawn i think that's it for them for a year i think i'm not entirely
40:24
sure they haven't said anything but that's the only full-time ford we saw a team randomly do this
40:33
a couple years ago and just disappeared i don't remember which one it was i would just
40:38
pop my head i am was supposed to sell in the off season to uh who who was it oh shoot i don't
40:47
remember it was an arca team was gonna buy am racing and that fell through like in january
40:51
like late january so i don't know they it felt like this team was treading water but i hate it for
40:56
sanchez because he's a proven winner and i feel like sanchez needs to reset his career get back
41:03
to the truck series or something anything at this point maybe maybe he could go to a
41:08
colleague and and fill in for the 10 or something cletus farland will be in the number 33 or
41:16

weather we have our weekend weather forecast for this weekend brought to us by our good buddy
42:54
meteorologist jeff vork um here we go as we look into the first weekend of april across the carolinas
43:02
we will be tracking a potential winter storm bringing an inch of freezing rain two inches of
43:08
sleep followed by a foot of snow travel will be canceled including the trains are likely to shut
43:14
down that run there from antrack april full is just kidding not even nascar can bring crippling
43:20
april winter storms to the sandhills of north carolina that was a good one i like that jeff got
43:27
us a little bit this weekend brings sort of a late spring early summer pattern to the rock
43:33
the bermuda high will be ushering in plenty of tropical air with enough of an umph as he calls
43:39
it to support some storm chances hit or miss pop-up storms are expected at times friday afternoon
43:45
into the early evening with the possibility delays to on track activity including the truck series
43:50
it's a little bit of a rinse and repeat to an extent on saturday uh for what is worth saturday's
43:57
rain chances are slightly lower but pop-up cells always find a way especially if nascar is involved
44:03
and there is a drought temperatures won't be too bad as far as it goes for fan comfort wise
44:09
morning train ride from raleigh features upper 50s to lower 60s giving way to warm
44:14
and humid 80s in the afternoon everyone enjoy rocking ham this weekend and uh you know knowing
44:21

44:26
will have to go to rocking ham i have to choose to spend my easter weekend there maybe well it's not
44:31

49:32

49:37
times at 200 500 champion he's a it's a race winning car owner put the taco he spilled on denny's car
49:43
behind glass there's a conversation for michael walter up in the hall of fame i'm just saying
49:48

50:13
generous 1999 i can't wait to see when brisco stops getting shafted by joe gives brisco is way
50:20
more talented than give brisco's getting fourth car equipment and those part failures show that
50:26
ty is in the best car and still sucks i don't think he's in the best car by any means
50:33
it's hard to say because i mean yeah i don't know it's hard it's hard to say because if you
50:37
put him in an average car maybe he's around 15 g i wonder what it's like to root for a guy who's
50:43
in the fourth best car your team i only wish i knew how to ask bell to say fred dog appreciate the
50:55
five dollars from you uh if rockin ham ever got to go back to hosting cubs or his race i don't
51:00
think they will who do you think would be the favorite to win the race or is there no real
51:04
favorite l lgano oh he's won there before uh yeah as i said he won in a truck i was gonna say
51:12
legano because i feel like legano often wins the like new thing he won the first coliseum race
51:18
breasted first dirt i feel like denny hamlin yeah denny hamlin
51:27
jesson drake another generous 99 from you spicy once again golden boy chase ellen
51:33
is really like the yankees lots of fans but living off an old legacy since the yankees
51:38
thank 20 championships from 60 plus years ago mean something and chase lives off a bill and
51:43
both have no personality oh kind of like the cow damn yes but chase ellie's at least won a championship
51:49
in the last decade the yankees haven't yeah that's fair wait i thought they were oh i think they were
51:56
anna world series they lost in dodgers that's why no they lose they always lose in the in october
52:00
they've my entire pretty much my entire lifetime the yankees lose yeah i think i think they're
52:06
four against the astros in the last decade in the playoffs k pro 18 appreciate two dollars del jr
52:12
buy rcr already just buy it you think you'd spend that much money on a team you wouldn't spend that
52:20
money on a charter he'll barely even run a one race a year in cup yeah you know how many charters
52:26
are included in that sale if you buy an rcr that's two charters buddy and a rusty spoon
52:33
jeff rick and plus we're gonna have nothing but crap parts to work with right off the bat
52:37
whatever's in the building jeff rick king appreciate the dollar nine chase ellie at one
52:42
dot race but that call two team effort mylo gunter appreciate the six canadian dollars
52:50
should drivers like mario and dready and a j point be in the hall of fame even though
52:54
nascar wasn't their main series i mean as good as they were for overall motor sports no i wouldn't
53:01
say that there were via nascar hall of fame for careers i yeah i wouldn't put them either them
53:08
and i'm trying to make sure that i was double checking that neither of them are i don't think
53:11
andretti i know is not and i don't think it's but then when they have things like
53:17
there's something like an international motorsports hall of fame something something
53:21
that's more of an umbrella term like that yeah they they belong in ones like that but when it's
53:25
specifically a nascar hall of fame no i don't think it's enough there i agree
53:31
los paris appreciate the five dollars i think larson hamlin and retic are the only locks for
53:36
the hall of fame and actually i think the next most likely it's svg of how he's improving
53:40
just with how many road course wins he'll probably end his career on probably having the most
53:45
yeah i think svg will one day be a nascar hall of famer just because of having that record
53:52
maybe if he's the winningest road racer maybe that i don't think that's enough to kiss you in
53:56
the hall and my thing with svg he's already like 36 or 37 like how many like i don't know how many
54:02
years is he gonna have to potentially go win a championship three or four or five factor in a
54:07
few things of how many wins he gets per year come here to how many starts in my dad that winning
54:12
percentage is obviously going to be a little bit higher and some people we've seen in nascar history
54:16
so it's gonna help it's gonna help us credit a little bit jiffer king of another two dollars why
54:21
do people try and discredit elliot wins because they feel like mickey mouse wins a lot of people
54:25
i mean that's just truthfully that's the biggest argument he ever heard the saying like you know
54:30
like bullies are just looking for a reaction i'm not saying all the elliot haters are bullies but
54:37
i think they they poke the elliot fan base because they're looking for a reaction so i would just
54:41
they've made it easy for reactions in the past elliot haters make the best trolls i know how to
54:47
push the button remember when santa claus attacked denny hamlin yeah oh yeah so should we just do the
54:55
next three all in a row it's it's indy karson versus indy karson if i collect the 30 dollars appreciate
55:00
that hey indy p martinsville oh riley popular driver all guy won martinsville cut popular driver
55:07
elliot won martinsville and also won before larson for first time since 2021 for hindering
55:12
motorswords that's an interesting note um eric it's not my fault i was curious about indy car
55:18
suspension since daniel die couldn't keep his mouth shut on social media for nascar don't forget
55:23
gregson and larson got in trouble before die uh and then why again do you guys talk about nfl and
55:29
mlb on your show if it's supposed to be nascar i thought of calling myself nascars indy karson
55:34
formula one cars and hra karson i can be a fan of all them you can be a fault fan of all them and
55:40
we all have different interests in our own teams and we can talk about other stuff here and there
55:43
too that's what makes us very unique people what we we are not confined to just nascar but this is
55:50
the main topic we talk about here like shooting the shit about other stuff every now and then
55:54
they had one more for another ten dollars let's just go and look that one in here my nascar

59:10
ty gibbs can be when he goes to all the mandatory meetings oh man oh i did think about that like i
59:20

59:26
like semen appreciated two dollars thought it was going to be the chicken podcast
59:30

59:42
episode one day just for the heck of it i might no go ratty eight die cast good to see you
59:49
appreciate that anything is better than rcr would rather kyle bush go to trucks and go for
59:55
a championship at least you'll be making history instead of mid-packing cup i agree i would love
00:00
to see him just go ahead and knock out the truck series championship and get it on his record because
00:06
before his passing greg biffle was on a few guys who was closest to having a chance to do that but
00:12
in austin dylan also is the next closest person who could do that but we're not going to see
00:17
austin winning a cup series title anytime soon i think we're at the point with kyle bush where
00:23
we're like he should drop back down to the truck series to rebuild his career this is kyle bush
00:29
just lay down there for a little bit oh man fan boney appreciate another five dollars from you
00:37
wonderful show thank you guys for putting in the time and effort to entertain us wouldn't

01:09
that was that that one got me i didn't read a head on that one
01:12
palm tree 82 appreciate five dollars also imagine if call itself two charters for nine figures then
01:18
gets two to four charters for dodge stonks i've thought about that i've literally been like is that
01:24
can they do that i guess abby but i guess you're banking on nascar unlocking those extra charters
01:31
which i don't know there's a guarantee that they will i mean i don't have been like
01:34
yeah bob would know yeah i'd be a good question for for a bob apc appreciate the four nine do
01:42
drivers like elliot and jr get in the hall of fame for the amount uh most popular driver awards they
01:47
have they shouldn't they felt they got a lot of cup wins and elliot's got championship but jr
01:57
jr will get in for being a two-time bush series champion good amount of wins in the cup series
02:05
championship and many race winning owner there's a lot more to jr than just being popular he on
02:13
on yeah i mean if you look at owner and driver alone for o'reilly i think you could make the
02:18
the argument let alone 200 500 champion yeah pretty i didn't even i didn't even list that two
02:25
times a 10 to 500 champion there's a lot there's a lot to it for for jr jensen appreciate ten
02:32

02:47
yeah i might have them on again they're starting to get into a rhythm do it more and more we uh
02:51
yeah maybe make it like a regular segment at some point never know never know what the future
02:57
