You sound like you're 100. I am. B. Brett Griffin, Spotter, Clint Boyer, Elliot Sadler, Mike Snyder, fresh off of the All-Star Weekend. Casey is in the house. Hey, hey, hey. Casey had an All-Star weekend.

Yeah. Casey, you had an All-Star weekend? I did. Yeah, didn't you? I like what you're wearing today. Thanks. I figured that, you know, bring him the white. What do you call that top?

You look nice. A top? A shirt? No, like, is it like a funky see-through thing? I was like that guy in that old Toy Story movie where he fell in all the piranazade is clothes. Yeah. That was not what I was going for.

You know what I'm talking about? The toy was the name of the movie. I don't know. What? You remember that movie? What? A toy story movie? Yes.

It's not Toy Story. I mean, it's not a cartoon. Oh, well, you said Toy Story. The guy, it's called the toy, and he's a human, and the guy, like, his dad's a rich, the kid's a rich governor, and he pays this guy to be, like, play with his kid all day. So what does that have to do with my shirt? He fell in the water, and a bunch of, like, piranha ate him up, and he come out looking like that.

Speaking of the all-star race. Yeah, so how was the all-star race, guys? Were you in the all-star race? I was. Holy cow. I was in it until we went four wide and then I was out of it. Oh, you got in that wreck? Yeah, I got in a big wreck.

In the three there? Yeah. Yeah. I was in the middle of that one. That was an interesting wreck. That was not fun. Somebody tried to make a lane that really wasn't there or going to work. So there was this picture floating around on my text messages of...

Are we talking about that now? Of Jason. Yeah. What? And he had two girls. He had one girl on each side. Oh, I did see this. Yeah.

On his Instagram. Yeah. And you couldn't really see his right hand. I was like... I swear you can. And then you can see it. It's kind of blurry. So like he was, I think, moving his hand really fast.

Like he got caught to himself. So why don't you explain this, Jason? Who are those girls? Those are my friends. They came out for the race this weekend. Friends. Yeah, friends. Yeah, friends.

Yeah, what's their names? Friends or Friends. Leah and Veronica. Leah and Veronica. Yeah. Veronica was on your right. Yep. It was Leah's first NASCAR race.

He straight up had a girl in each arm. He did. So popular. Thank you. I brought them free drinks from the media center. What kind of drinks? Water and mellow yellow. Oh.

That was my job all weekend, stock in the fridge in the media center. He did a great job, by the way. I was in the media center. He kept it well-stocked and cold. We're getting off topic here. So tell us more about Leah and Veronica here. Sorry, I tried to help you out. So if TJ and I got tweeted last.

weekend we got called dirty old men did you say that tweet no they were like you guys are both married and you're too flirty you're just too dirty old man i'm like dude we're not that old to be called dirty we can be called dirty men i don't know you responded with watch old yeah i mean i'm old but i mean we ain't that old yeah so how did it end up man how'd lee and veronica like it yeah yeah met coleswindale oh that's cool so she enjoyed it first naskar race so you've been texting since i text i texted this morning she asked me about chick-fil-a but we did i was hoping it I saw there was a cool fan. I saw that guy that wanted to deliver Chick-Fillet.

That was nice of him. Did you screw that up? I didn't know if I could say yes to that if we can accept that. What do you think we can accept it? We don't work for corporate America. We can accept all sorts of gifts. I didn't know they had Chick-Fillet could deliver it either. I have Chick-fil-A delivered every week to deliver.

I don't realize this thing. I know, but it's on your way here, isn't it? Delivery service? I got a bunch of orange starbursts giving us. to me this weekend. T.J. gets stuff given to him all the time. I mean, it's just... What? What? What? Why? Candies and stuff. Because fans love us.

Why? I got to tweet this morning saying somebody was sending something to the shop. Millions of followers. Yeah. They like you guys? They like us. Friday, we're doing this podcast live. What are we possibly going to talk about on Friday that we're not already talking about today? Why don't we invite Leah and Veronica? Uh-ho. We're going to ask, do some ass TVC questions live from the crowd. Are we? Yeah. Yeah. Do you some that stuff.

What about it? Nikki? Nikki. Nikki. Is that our name? Nicky Monage. What's your sister? Oh, my sister. Yeah, Nikki. She's Nikki.

Yeah, so this is my sister. Is she coming? She is having surgery this week. What kind? She had a sports hernia. Sports hernia. Yeah. She plays soccer overseas.

What exactly is a sports hernia? I don't really know. She had one surgery three weeks ago and just figured that, just learned how to walk in and now she has to have another surgery. My mom has a hernia, and I don't understand what that thing is, but it gives her a fit. I'm guessing. sports hernia is similar. Isn't it a hernia where like your muscle rips out through?

I thought it was something to do with your intestines. No, it's a muscle. No, it's like right. It's in this area where like your muscle. Yeah. Or something. It rips like your, something in there rips.

That guy in the gift shops looking at you funny, but you're pointing in that little hand gesture you just did. He's like, I really know what they're talking about. I totally made eye contact with him. And then he looked away. Really awkward. And he's walking away.

Anyway. I'm out. Yeah, I think something rips through there, and it's not good. It's because she, so she actually plays soccer overseas on teams in like Sweden and stuff like that. Can she speak different languages? To an extent, I can speak pig Latin. Oh, yeah, but-a-b-b-b-b-b-b-a-b-b-a-b-b-a-ta-a-ta-ta type of? Yeah, that.

Yeah, she can speak different languages. Say something. Say something. Yeah, go for it. Say something. Something say. Oh, well, huh? That's something.

Okay. You say, you leave the first letter off in pig-latin. So if it's something, you have to take the first letter off, which is S. And then you say umphing, and then that first letter, you add A to it. So it's umpting say, that's Piglatans for something. Lessons from, Brett Griffin. Thank you for that. I'm Ret Bay.

That's my name. And Piglatt. I would have to write. You're ACK. I don't know what TJ is because he's an initials. He's J. J. Tay. J.

Okay. So the All-Star race. I guess just people in Pages on words. I don't even know if Pig Latin's real. but we were just rednex. Oh, it's real. I used to speak it in high school. Oh, yeah.

That was me. Yeah. I was totally one of those girls. There was a group of girls walking on. But be it, blah, blah, blah. What are you doing?

That's code. I can't interpret it, though. I can only speak it. You just interpreted it. Yeah, but my brain that worked fast enough to interpret it. Just to say it. Yeah, that's too much.

If you start rattling it off, I'd be like, hold on, man, I got rice down. You say it great. That was a great lesson, yeah. Very informative.

Yeah. So Veronica and what's her name are invited Friday. You already forgot about Leah. Somebody else we did that we should have a fan on the show, which that poor fan, I don't know that they can handle it, but that would be a great option. Veronica, Leah, sounds good to me. We can have them on on Friday.

Yeah, well, I assume we'll have a wireless mic to go out in the crowd, ask some questions. Are they students with you? Yeah, they're both in my school. Go to my school. So they're not going to be screen questions at a time? No, we'll be screening. I'll screen. We don't need a screen questions.

So you were like superstar for a little bit. Don't screen questions. Who cares? Introduced them? Well, bad answers. Did you introduce him to Cole Swindell? No, he was just walking on the road after during the race. But they were with you, though?

No, they were just, I was working. They were just enjoying it, the race. Gotcha. How come you didn't make it to the roof, man? You didn't come up and say hi? This weekend, I'll be there. I'll be working all weekends. He's at the track.

Which elevator do you guys take up to the roof? Either one. You shuffling these girls around. Can't even come up and say hi. The one ride is start, it's easy. Okay. Yeah. Yeah, the one that's our finish, but we stand down towards.

I'm down towards turn four, but either elevator work fine. Got it. But, yeah. Anyway, so how was your All-Star race other than the wrecked? It sucked. Yeah. That whole weekend was weird, man. Rain kind of screwed it up.

It was pretty decent. Rain screwed my weekend bad. I know, man. I felt bad for you. It was Madeline's dance recital. It was her birthday on Saturday, and she had a dance recital. she's been practicing forever for. I mean, I mean, they've been practicing three, four nights a week for this thing.

And then the rain, the practice Saturday morning got pushed right into the middle of the dance recital. I'm going to tell you what, man. So, girls are extremely expensive to raise. Yeah. Like, my little boy doesn't cost me any money. My girls, every time I turn around, it's $100 here, $100 there. That's because he plays PubG.

That's because he plays PubG that's a free game on the iPad. with you. It's non-stop with these kids. I mean, I have two girls. This might be in this door because I saw like three heads look. You should really turn that off. Does it $100 you to death yet? Because if not, it's coming.

Oh, yeah. You know what we went for a birthday yesterday? The Great Wolf Lodge. $700. Oh, no, no, no, no. How much? I wish it was $700. How much you spend?

I don't even want to talk about it. I'm going to say it not quite double, but it was almost double. Close to double. Yeah. But it was, it was, I mean, we're there all day. What did you guys do? Man, they do water slides and water rides and pool. That's fine.

So we had a whole, we did her whole birthday part of that. We did pizza and everything. We went up to this room, had pizza. Hold on one minute. You don't know what Great Wolf Lodge is. I didn't. I didn't know. There's one in Kansas I saw outside the track.

You don't know what Great Wolf Lodge is. It's pretty awesome for kids, though. Arcades. Adult suits. It's an indoor water park. Do you know what great will do? Yeah, there's one in Concord, right? No, Jason, I know that.

Do you know what it is? I've never been to there. We drove to Kansas yesterday and went to that one. Good Lord. Yeah, there's one in Concord. Damn! All right. I drew, I know it is.

I know what it is. Tell them what it is. So the answer to your questions, yes. Well, at least tell them what it is. It's an indoor water park, but it's a hotel. And you can't just show up and go to the water park. You either have to do a party deal, and you have to get like the whole day or half day or whatever,

or you have to have to have a room there and be staying there because it's a hotel as well. But it's all an indoor water park. They've got water slides, wave pools, water basketball courts where you get in there. They got hoops on both sides. You go in and play big water structure things where kids run around, a little kiddie area. Two bars.

Yeah. No, they. One's really tiny. It's smaller than it's smaller than this room. I'm still a bar though. Yeah. It counts. And they have arcades, basically ice cream shop, candy store.

So you had multiple kids there, not just... Oh, it was our whole dance team. Oh, you had the whole dance team. Well, that's why it was so expensive. Did they charge you per person? I don't even know. Yeah, I'm pretty sure. So I was wanting the kids to come Saturday and do Great Wolf Lodge Saturday night,

and then I'd just have a place to stay right by the track when I was done. We talked about doing that. The room was $575. It's race weekend. Anywhere around there is going to be expensive. And I was like, dude, I can go to the Bahamas for, I want to smile that guy's taking a picture of you. Five.

So, TJ spent $1,400. A little less. Well, after where it left the arcade, it might have been around there. I don't know. Is Arcade any good? Yeah, it was good. It was pretty big. Yeah.

I'll tell you what was. So you didn't spend the night? No. No. I kind of, last year we were moving in the middle of all this. We were trying to buy a house. So she never, and Stella was coming. So she never really had a birthday party last summer.

So this was kind of like makeup for that, too. So you spend double? I mean, I normally don't spend $700 on a birthday party. Normally it's cake, ice cream, some balloons, and a decent little gift. Good thing you're rich. Shoot, man. I got to do like four Archer cars next week. Same race.

I got to do four at one time next week. The same race just to get your money back. Yeah, just to get my money back. So, no, it was fun, though. She had a great party. Have you ever rid in that Tollet Bowl thing, the ride in there where you like, come down this little ramp. Oh, no, yeah.

That's the tornado. It slings you around like this. So it comes. That's what it feels like. You get in this big raft. And you go down with your slide. There's four of you on this thing. And then you know, and I end up being backwards.

I was the one going backwards on it. And the next thing, you know, this thing drops off. And I'm going like straight down. I'm like, holy cow. And then it comes out and it's like a huge half pipe for like a skateboard. So you go up and you go way up. And then you go. Then you're like,

Oh, we're stopping. Then you slide back down the other way, and you almost come out of the thing. And it's like... I was scared. My kids were going to fly out. I was about how hard attack. It was pretty scary. And then we got off, and Maladine really wanted a ride.

She's like, oh, try it, fine. We got out there. She was awesome. Let's do it again. I'm like, no, we're leaving. That's what I said. We're done. We're out.

But no, she had a good party. And it is a fun place. It's a pretty good place. See, I told you girls are expensive. They are. You just took them to a park. You may like, hey, you guys have phone swings over there. See you.

Little boys. Here's a baseball bat and a baseball. Right there. Little girls are just like mega rain all the time. I mean, they make the most of it, obviously. Yeah. You're worth it.

Y'all are worth it. God, you're expensive. They are expensive. Geez, I feel like we spent 10 minutes talking about this hotel. They might as well pay us to advertise for it. At least give us a free night. You a fan of the all-star race or not? Wait, this is our first spot-on, spot-off question.

Oh, we're going there. Sorry. Oh, yeah. Because I think we could talk. the whole show about All-Star Race. We could. I mean, at this point. We could.

All right. So spot on, spot off. Are we in? Are we done? Talk about Lee and Veronica? I'm sure they'll come up again. I can't wait until they listen to this. Do they listen?

Of course they listen. We'll tweet them. I'm sure you follows them somewhere so we can find them. Yeah. I think I know who Veronica is, so don't worry all. Oh. I'll find out. All right.

You're kind of Macing on Veronica, aren't you? Yeah. Squeezing her little time. Spot on. Spot off. Spot on. Spot off, Veronica's outfit. Hey, I'll go spot on a Veronica.

Okay. For real. Spot on. All right, spot on, spot off. All-Star Race Rules package. Go. Spot on. Yeah? Why?

I think our mile and a halfs have become a pretty boring product. And I think this attempt at a package, especially the first attempt at this package, was a home run in terms of value. for the fans from an entertainment standpoint. The leader couldn't get away like he typically can. The cars, even in the pack, we're obviously working a lot harder, you know, than they typically do mentally to be able to go up through there in race.

I mean, we definitely saw some passing. We saw some lead changes. We saw more lead changes, and I think we've seen in the last four All-Star races combined. I read somewhere. I don't think there's, there's only one negative for me with this past. package. And it's these guys are heroes, you know, these cup guys. And for me, it looked a lot like a truck race. It looked a lot like an Iraq race. And I Rock went out of business for a reason.

And the truck races, if they were so great, I think that their ratings would be higher, you know. So I'm a little bit concerned about us saying, I mean, here's the thing. And I just, you know, to be quite honest with you, I just talked to Elliot about it on the phone on the way here. And he's like, you know, you say it's easier to drive these things. And the reality is that it is easier when you're out there by yourself because you're just running wide open. But when you get in a pack like this and you're doing these restarts and you're tandem down the backstretch and you're tandem getting into three and you're deciding whether or not to push this guy or go around this guy, I think mentally it's a lot more difficult than what they're used to at a mile and a half.

They're relying on their just talent and skill that they've learned over the years when they're typically at a mile and a half versus having to take plate skills and a mile and a half skills and combine them. But for me, my biggest struggle was knowing that these guys are used to going in the 200 miles an hour, and now they're only going 165. And I've been 156 miles an hour myself in a vehicle. And to be quite honest with you, it didn't freak me out that bad. So I think the superhuman hero part of it for me as a fan of our sport is they're doing something that I can't do.

And they're doing something that T.J. majors can't do. And when I say T.J., I referenced T.J. as a former driver who went out and raced. And T.J. wouldn't be afraid to get in that car right now and go do what those guys did because he's raced before. He's been in that element. I think, however, if you said, TJ, we're going to go out here and you're going to go 208 miles an hour in or in the corner at Fontana. Good luck. He might try it and he might do it, but he's not going to be able to do it as good as those guys can do it. So I just don't want to lose the hero factor that I think we have because we're slowing the cars down. And let's be real honest. And this last thing I'll say is

it's going to be a lot more dangerous for drivers. You know, now you're taking the Daytona, Talladega-style wreck, and you're saying anywhere we run this package, you can have that style of that style of rate. Do we really want to go to Homestead and run a mile and a half and the race be like it was for the championship, you know, with that rules package? Yeah, there's a, these guys are pretty good at what they do

when they're going that fast, and it's pretty, you know, it's pretty, um, a lot of people don't see. see it like we do, but they're very precise. If they miss that line by a foot, they're looking for a seam in turn one at Fontana. If they miss that seam, these guys are very precise and it's really, really hard to drive these cars and be that. Like at Dover, when we were holding that line off, that's super hard to do. Yes. To not mess up at Dover and hold that bottom. That's super hard to do. And I appreciate guys that can go out there and do that stuff because it's not easy. I liked the roll package for the All-Star race.

I thought it was pretty entertaining. I don't think I'd want to run the 600 like that. It's just, I don't know, I'm okay with the cars going slower still, but we need to, it's too, we're too much in a box still right here. We need to have a little bit of being able to get away a little bit. I watched the All-Star race 2000 when Dale Jr. won last night. And those guys weren't quite going the speeds we were going, but they were going to the corner washing up and stuff.

And it was pretty exciting. It was pretty interesting. With no splitters, too, by the way. Yeah, with valances on the front. Yeah. But I did like the package. I thought it was pretty exciting. And I wouldn't mind running it more times throughout the year, a few times, a few select times.

What tracks do you think would be okay for this package? Michigan. Michigan. I don't know if Michigan would be that fun because... I think the longer the straightaway, the more opportunity we give that draft to have an impact on a passing opportunity. I would be interested in seeing what it looks like at Michigan, but the old Michigan to me would have been a perfect track for that. That would have been a lot of fun. The new Michigan, once you're two and a half lanes off the bottom, you're done.

Like, there's no other racetrack. There's three racetracks where the vass fall at Michigan that's never even used. And it used to be six crews we ran on But I think we got to have hats off to Charlotte for what they did Because they did the opposite of what Kentucky did last year Kentucky went around and ran that tire machine Right around the bottom which is where we want to run Charlotte did the opposite they went and ran it on the top

A while ago too though I heard it was They'd been doing it yeah I heard it was before they didn't do it like really recently But it was like a few weeks ago or something They ran the top half of the racetrack So that there was optimal grip up there And we even alluded to this last week on the show that once we kind of got going in this package, I thought we would see them really get strung out,

fight for the top and run wide open up there, and we pretty much did. And if you got to the bottom, yeah, you could make up ground, but the second you stalled out, you were in serious trouble. Like,

if you caught a guy or he made a block on you, like you lost four or five spots, which was kind of frustrating. If you tried to make a move, you needed to make sure it worked. Like, you need to make sure, because we went down there

and tried it a couple times and lost spots. But what I liked about the top is, you still had the lift running. on the top, but you could carry a run from the center off. And one thing that we were doing that you normally don't have to do at a place like this is you're spotting out the, I was spotting out the back more than the front because guys had runs and they were coming. And which to me is, I mean, that means the package somewhat worked.

I mean, they had runs. I mean, everybody that I've talked to said they were entertained. They said it was a fun race to watch. The drivers, I don't think, had the theme. But here's the thing, Casey, I mean, it goes. back to what we just said, it's more dangerous. Yeah. Their fate isn't in their hands as much as it was. And also, you know, a guy like A.J. Amandinger, you know, you haven't seen him in years and all of a sudden

he's up there. Like, I think it's cool it gave him an opportunity to be up there. But at the same time, they don't want to see that guy have an opportunity when his budget isn't what their budget is and his cars aren't as good as their cars. And, you know, he's a talented race car driver or he wouldn't be a cup. And I even tweeted during that open, man, you can, can tell he was driving his butt off. He was doing things that other guys weren't doing. He was running higher. He was lifting earlier.

He was in the gas sooner. Up against a fence early in the corner. Like, I mean, digging. Yeah. But it was, you know, fun to watch. Like, I thought the open was better than the All-Star race. Did you see, like, we were all that, everyone on the roof, and, I mean, all the spotters watching into that open race, we were all, like, fist-pumping.

Like, that was awesome to watch. Yeah. I thought, I liked the fact that somebody like A.J., even to, even to up and it became pretty much driver versus driver for a little while. Yes, it's more dangerous and I'm not, I don't, I don't really like doing it at places where we have dog legs. I don't like dog legs being three wide and stuff like that because there's a lot more room for error. I know that creates wrecks and excitement, but I am for this package a handful of times a year to give guys like that a chance. This could be, this could boost AJ into the chase, something like

this, you know, and give that guy a chance. I think it even is a point. I think it even is a playing field out rather than like, okay, so this guy's got the best car. Well, guess what? He does not the best car. You know, I've got a shot this weekend now, you know, I think it evens the playing field up a lot more and puts driver versus driver. I still think strategy won this race. I think one of the fastest cars won this race. And I think once a fast car, like Harvick got the lead, you couldn't catch him. I really don't think you were going to catch him. I think had Clint got the lead, it would have been similar situation. But when I looked at some of those other guys get the lead, like the Toyotas and whatnot, they were super fast. They could push really good, but when they would get the lead, you know,

other guys could get a run on them and make things happen. I think that in time, and this is what people don't understand. You know, I saw a tweet from another spotter saying, thank goodness we're practicing on Saturday. Well, all you're doing is leveling the playing field every time you practice. In time, these teams and these engineers would level the playing field with this package. And you wouldn't see Kevin Harvick be able to get out there and stay out there and stay gone. You know, I'm sorry, you will see everybody be able to do that because everybody's going to

make their cars faster. We went with reverse skews in the cars, which means the exact opposite of what we do for a downforce track. We did it more like a Talladega Daytona track. So, you know, the more we practice, the better everybody's going to get and the harder it's going to be for everybody to pass. That hour of practice that we did on Saturday morning, you know, I thought it was pretty dumb, you know, and then I saw that same guy tweet, well, thanks that I practiced, the cars

were more fun to watch at the end of practice than they were to beginning. We'd have made the cars better between stage one and stage two. you had the same effect. I was for, I thought the All-Star cars, probably I wasn't sure they really needed practice because we qualified.

Yeah. But I was for maybe a short open practice because most of them guys hadn't even seen a race track. They haven't even seen the race track yet. Yeah. So I was for a short practice with that. But, yeah,

some of our best races have been with no practice. I mean, what did you think watching it? Did you watch it from home or track? I watched from home. Yeah. I watched practice from the track. I liked it because it kept I mean Harbick like he said he couldn't run away with it

and you never knew like what was going to happen especially with these short stages it kept the racing close obviously not not in your best interest with the fort with your rec but I thought you know I was watching with people that don't really follow NASCAR either and they thought it was an exciting race I will say you know being making it shorter

probably made it for those that are not NASCAR fans they watched the entire entire thing and they thought it was cool and want to walk even more of it. Yeah. Because, I mean, you don't have to sit there for a few hours. You can, it wasn't a long race. Yeah, we really didn't need those stages in that event, you know, because it was exciting enough.

And I think stages are to create excitement, and it's to regroup the field after it's been spread out. And I think with that rules package, it's like, hey, we don't need to take a break because it's steady developing. It's steady getting more and more fun. Yeah. And, you know, just let them race. I mean, I kind of like the stages, though, because that gave tire choices.

Yeah. I mean, even it didn't make a strike. They didn't need to pit, right? They're like, I mean, obviously we have to, but it wasn't a rule. We had fresher tires. There weren't no rules. Right. We had the fresher tires and the four cars.

So I was really looking forward to trying to get clear that 19 and having a lap or two, but we couldn't quite clear the 19. So, you know, we had a little bit fresh tires, which I think we might have been able to get there. But I know your car pushed really well. It looked like it sucked up really nice. I'm not sure we would have been able to get around Kevin because Kevin was going to be really hard, but we probably could have made it pretty exciting. Yeah.

Yeah. So. I thought a few more laps. I am all for this a few times a handful of times a year. I don't think we need to do a majority, but I'm all for it. The problem is our mile and a half product had gotten so boring, and fans were jumping up, down, screaming. And I mean, look, let's talk about this.

The Coke 600, two years ago, Truex went out and dominated a 600-mile race. He wouldn't do that with this package. No. And so hopefully, you know, what was really cool about it is our drivers didn't get out and say they don't want to do the C-MOR is too dangerous, like the IndyCar drivers did at Fontana the last time they ran there because our guys are used to running close they're used to making these moves but i think they realize too man that that you don't want to go to these tracks and tj screw up or or i screw up or clint screw up or joy scro up and they take out 20 cars like that's

just not the mentality that we've like a taldega would yeah that's what makes that place unique so the daytona 500 isn't going to be overly unique anymore if we're doing this every week at mile of a halfs you know i mean like i said i'm for it a handful of times year a small handful but um you know i think it's it's still i mean i don't want to do it every week i don't want to do it every mile and a half but i definitely i definitely liked it for um evening up evening stuff up because i'm gonna tell you what even in the osser race a j came on yeah he was like he was like yeah and i was like holy cow here this guy's gonna but he also been out there running for an hour you know like he knew exactly what his car was going to do and these other guys are

going, okay, well, let's fill this out, you know. Yeah, I mean, he was doing it, though. He did a great job. Jason, do you watch it or are you too busy? I was in the media center watching it. So it was good. What was the reaction of the media? They loved it.

They thought it was entertaining. They were tweeting about how cool it was to watch it. So, yeah, I think everyone's pretty positive. Yeah, there's more to speak about when you can say, oh, there was a four, you're four wide at times at Charlotte. I don't know. Which is, which is awesome. And obviously, you can self-police it, but Charlotte wasn't built to be four wide entering

turn three. You know what I mean? Like, Talladega was. I think, I don't know. I think. That was aggressive. That was a bit aggressive. I also think that this is the first time they did it.

There's a lot that teams can probably figure out if they, if NASCAR does decide to do these, this format a few more times in the year. It would be interesting, but I don't, I don't know. It was cool to watch. Yeah. I don't know about drivers what they thought, but oh well. All right. Moving on, Lagano turns Larson, spot on, spot off.

What happened, dude? I didn't see a thing. Was it a product of the package or was it a driver mistake? Or aggressiveness? That was just, uh, which part? Which part? So we were running Kyle down and we actually got outside of him, I think before he was expected it. And I listened to his interview and his interview was spot on.

I saw him lift when it's almost like he figured out just a little bit. bit too late that he wasn't going to leave enough room and if he kept going, we were going to wreck. Well, it was already, because I've seen his car go to the left, but it was just past the point of like where we were going to hit the wall. And he kind of, he put us in the wall and we just, we shot back down and barely, I think our, so he squeezed you. Oh, yeah, he squeezed in the wall. And we come back down off the wall and our bumpers crawl. Well, we didn't hit him in the quarter panel. Yeah. We hit him in the bumper. Like, we come down and our bumper barely like hit in the middle. Yeah, it was turning. And it just, it made it.

It wiggled him a little bit, and then he spun down through the grass. And I was a little nervous in the beginning, but I'm like, wait a minute, he's only, he's barely even moving here. He's just going to slide down here, and he did. He kept on going, which I'm glad. I didn't want to see him get a tore-up car. Right. But, you know, it was, I don't think he meant to run us into the wall because I saw the car turn left, and it was just kind of like, he was like, oh, you know, here it comes. But that's just, hey, man, I'm.

You got a block in that style of racing. He didn't, but he didn't choose the block. You know what I mean? he made up his mind too late on it. But I think he described it perfectly in his interview, which was really good, I thought, too. Yeah. Kyle Busch's truck comments.

Oh, we got the audio? Mm-hmm. Pure talent. That's about it. My pit crew did absolutely nothing to help me out tonight. My truck drove like... And the splitters are absolutely horrendous. You can't pass in traffic.

You can't race alongside anybody. You can't get within five truck lengths of no one. But somehow, some way, I was able to get back to the front. Had a blast. That's funny. So the best is the best part. Any question of the press box? Anything from the press box?

What do they say? Silence. All right. Thank you, Kyle. My question. Everyone was just stunned. I opened the door for him. He walked in, sat down and walked out.

Yeah. That's funny. That's awesome. Entertainment. Here's the thing, man. What he's fussing about could potentially be the rules package here is it evolves. I mean, that's what I'm saying. Teams are going to, they're going to figure out the way to make these cars faster.

But the truck race, Vegas, I thought was phenomenal. I thought they put on a really good show. And then I think they got here and they didn't. I mean, Kyle's comments, we got another spotter. We have a group of me that we all kind of talk about stuff in. And he said, there's no I and Kyle. And then he spelled it K-I-L-E, you know.

I think Kyle's fans. You know the saying, right? What is it? I won. We wrecked. You fix it. That's how it goes for drivers. I won.

We wrecked. You fix it. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That makes sense. Yeah. I think, I mean, I think his fans probably loved it because that's the personality that you probably cling to to begin with.

But I think don't come on our dirty mode media shows and try to be this different guy. And then your true caller's come right back out two weeks later. Like, if you're going to be the villain, be the villain. Yeah. I don't. This is fully what I would expect from an interview after not when he doesn't win a truck race. Yeah. I just don't, I mean, you know, it's hard to...

Whoever was on the side of his truck, we'd like to thank you for sponsoring Kyle for him. What do you think is pickery, guys? You think they're just beat up, or do you think they're laughing, or do you think they're going to try harder? Like, well, how do you... You got to respond to this with something. Not necessarily, you know, vocally, but you got to have your job. But, I mean, who's his picture, man? I mean, didn't Harvick do the same thing with his pick crew a few years ago?

All the time. Listen, these guys, pick up. crew guys mistakes happen and stuff these guys are trying to be so fast and it's there's like there's never going to be a perfect pit crew every single stop man these guys are human lug nuts are

going to fall off the tire sometimes things are going to happen man so just be glad it happened in the truck race and not you know what I mean yeah so but these guys are trying I mean I the best thing that I'm a big advocate of picking them up you know hey you guys I know this is a bad stop

don't worry man we're going to get it back keep your head up instead of if you get in their head and you start cussing on the radar after one bad stop they're just going to be like oh man i hope i don't mess up instead of being there and yeah you know what the driver's in there he's getting pumped up he knows we can get it back we're going to help him out next stop we're going to gain a couple i'll be honestly after after daytona i don't want to see a top 20 cup driver even in the truck series anymore after what we saw with these races they can't run and the show they put on and they give other guys an opportunity to win uh i don't i'm i'm over it and i hate to have that attitude because I know they bring some things to that series.

I enjoy the youth of the truck series. I do too. Well, it's the same with the Xenity series. I mean, I think the youth versus the, I mean, I got Johnny Sauter racing against Noah Gregson, like, what a great show, you know, they're able to put on. Yeah. I don't need to see a top 20 cup driver in there. No.

No, I don't either. And especially somebody like Kyle, who is arguably one of the most talented guys in the Cup series, he's going back here simply to stat pad, in my opinion. I mean, I don't know what his sponsor deals are, but he's just padding stats. You know, another win, another check. I mean, the truck series was built on Mike Skinner, Ron Hornaday, Jack Sprague, Rick Corell. These were guys that were truck series drivers racing one another all year. That was the story.

You didn't have guys. You didn't have Dale Earnhardt and, you know, Mark Martin and all them guys going back and running all these races to take away from it. But they also were doing standalone stuff. It logistically was tough to get to that series. So having seen what we've seen this year, I want to go back to that. I like that. Yeah, I really enjoy the truck series when you had those guys, you know, sets or Hornaday, and those guys didn't really take a whole lot from each other either, man.

They knew if you got into one, you were getting it back. Yeah. So I really enjoyed that part. I enjoy watching the truck series. I enjoy watching Noah race with Johnny and stuff like that. But, yeah, I agree. Kenny Wallace's video telling fans that if you're going to complain about NASCAR, then don't watch. Dude, this really got under my skin.

Why? Because you're telling fans don't watch. You're telling fans that are complaining about your sport to not watch. I'm a Gamecock fan. I b-h about the Gamecocks all the time. Don't watch. It's what fans do. Madonna said it best.

Negative publicity is still publicity. You know, the fact that these guys are talking about. They're still talking. If people are complaining and have something to talk about, then the sports is doing something right. I agree. I agree. I mean, and for people to say, for Kenny Wallace to say, if you don't have anything nice to say, stop watching, dude, we don't need people to stop watching. Ratings are already down 20%.

Don't give them a suggestion to bring them down even further. We need those people because the positive people are going to engage in debate and come back at those negative people. Let those negative people. Now, trolling is a whole different deal. I flip off people that troll. But if you want to say negative things about the sport, it means you're paying attention. It means you've got an opinion.

And you're also going to eventually say something positive. I had a guy tweet me during the first stage of that because I said, hey, I'm telling y'all, this open is going to be a great race. Watch this. The first thing the guy tweets me is, oh, my God, they're already single file. How boring is this? And I kept tweeting him the whole open going, hey, Michael, you're still here? You're still watching at the end of it.

He goes, hey, hey, man, you're right. I'm sorry. I was wrong. Like, that's what that creates. Kenny, man, rethink this whole thing about saying you guys don't watch. I don't. So with the way social media has been the last handful of years, the last eight, 10 years is grow, like the growth has been, you know, hundreds and hundreds of percent. Like it's not like 10 percent.

Millions of percent. Yes. It's so big. I'm all four suggestions and ideas. But, you know, I don't get on there and be like, well, this. How about like, hey, you know, I didn't really enjoy this. What about this? you know we don't sometimes if you want to be it doesn't help to get on there and just completely

bashed stuff if you have an idea or you want to talk about something get on there and just you know voice your opinion i think it's great we can get people's opinions because back in the day you'd never had any of this stuff you didn't know what people were thinking you know you had to you had to have pay people to hand out you know questionnaires and have them fill them out put them in a box you know what i mean yeah so um here's the other cool thing about social media though i was at hooters after the truck Race. No way. Right by the track.

What? Shocker. Jason came in with two girls. Because of social media, a dude named Josh walks over and he goes, hey, man, are you Brett? I was like, uh, yeah, are you going to swing at me? And he's like, no, man, a huge fan of your show. You and TJ are awesome, man.

I'm listening to you every week on the radio. I'm from Johnson City, Tennessee. My buddy Jared is here on his bachelor party. I'm like, wow, man, that's cool. How many you guys are there? He points over there. He's like eight of them. So Jared apparently had an exchange with Austin Dillon.

on social media. And it came to the point of Jared was going to get a wolf pack tattoo like Austin had. So Austin invited him to meet him after the All-Star race to say, hey. That's cool. So here's the reality. Social media gives you that opportunity. You would never get Austin Dillon's phone number. You would maybe send him a letter.

It never get read. You know, PR people shield it, whatever. So social media is so great that I met this guy named Josh. he had his buddy named Justin I ended up sending them to leather and lace I bought their first round and I hope they had a good time and weren't too hung over on

All Star Day But that's the power of social media I had a similar experience We were Before the truck race A friend of ours was at the track And he's like Hey I'm gonna go to a dinner at the Speedway Club

So he took a few of us He's like hey you got here with me Like okay sure we got a little bit time For the truck race or whatever So we went down and I literally just sat down And a guy come up and said Hey are you teaching majors I'm like, yeah, and I'm thinking the same thing.

Like, here we go. And no, he's like, man, I love the show, man. Really great to meet you. And I was like, oh, that's cool. You know, and it was a mean experience. But it's, it's, you wouldn't have any of that without any of this, you know, social media stuff, podcast, stuff like that. Well, and when you look at, I mean, half the things we talk about, too, on this show,

like infractions and penalties that NASCAR puts in the place for teams that people tweet, like, oh, that sky's windows, like, way. too far indented. I mean, there's a lot of controversy when they come to things like that. But that's what the exposure that NASCAR needs and these teams need, not necessarily having them follow the rules based off what people say.

But it's giving people to talk about. There are some disgruntled people that like to voice their opinion, but they're also the ones. It's okay. They need to watch. We need them to watch. We agree we need them to watch. I can't stand when somebody says something and then somebody gets a hold of and they delete it. All these people who write bad stuff stop

watching. No. No, no, no, no. Please don't stop watching. Please tell your friends are watching right, bad stuff too Brett likes those people He'll respond back Just watch I want people to watch

Okay, we're going to break Yeah, I'll quit This is your Exaltor Race Center update I'm Matthew Dillner Charlotte Mutter Speedway Played host of the NASCAR All-Star race this weekend While a new rules package

Was the big talk Nothing was new on the top of the scoreboard As Kevin Harvick continued his series Dominance in taking the win And the million dollar check On Saturday night The trucks put on a show under the lights at Charlotte, Nesito, Wisconsin's Johnny Sauter, led over half of the race

and drove to his third win of the season over Kyle Bush and Brandon Jones. The Junior Motorsports Late Mile program competed at Tennessee's Bristol Motor Speedway this weekend in the U.S. short-track nationals, and Clement Weather cut the race short on lap 64 of the 100-lap event, J.R.M. driver's Josh Berry finished fifth, and Sam Mayer was scored ninth in the Cars Tour event. After a two-week break, the NASCAR Xfinity series will be back in action this second. Saturday, while the cup cars go 600 miles on Sunday to cap off Charlotte Motor Speedway's Memorial Day weekend.

and then we'll let her get back into the show and moderate when she's done with her break. All right. She's in the potty. First question. After the All-Star Race, Rules Package produced exciting racing on Saturday night. Should we see this rule package again this year at a mile and a half track, T.J. We should definitely see this rule package again at some point. I'm not sure it should be this year because they have to give the teams a notice.

But yeah, I definitely think we should use this package again a few times. Hi, Casey. Welcome back. So, yeah, anyway, I think we should see the roll. package again a few times. I think it needs tweaking, but yeah, I mean, I definitely, listen, we're going to see it again. Too many people supported it, you know, the fans that were at home watching, the media that was live and at home watching, you know, X drivers that were watching. Too many people thought it was entertaining for this thing to go away.

We're definitely going to see it again. I just don't, I don't want it to be, as we said earlier, on every mile and a half. I don't want to be at a homestead, but I'm okay for a race or two in the chase. Listen, that opened, they came to the white flag two by two by two, and we had no idea who was going to win that race. When's the last time we've seen that at Charlotte? Yeah. We have not seen it.

And when they got to turn one, one went to the middle, one went to the wall, and one one to the bottom. You know, and it was, man, I don't know how we could have asked for more. Yeah, agreed. We're on question number two. Casey, welcome back. Yeah, welcome back. Everything come out, okay?

Yes, thank you. Okay, good. Just a lot of people in the gift shop. They're nice. What was more surprising from All-Star Race Weekend, Roush Fenway sweeping the front row in qualifying, Almondinger winning the open, or Swars' second place finish in the All-Star Race?

Brett. I definitely got to go with the most surprising thing being Roush Fenway sweeping the front row. It's very obvious that they had a good product for qualifying. They got on the pit road well. They had a good pit stop. They got off pit road well. So, I mean, the most surprising thing.

If you just said Rouse will be on the front row, there's no way anybody in America would have said, I'll take that bet. They swept it. Good job for those guys. Yeah, I wasn't really surprised that Matt. Matt's a really smooth driver doesn't make mistakes. TJ, they've been a second off everywhere they've been all year. Yeah, this is, yeah, but there's so much involved in it. People get penalties on.

This is the pick who's chance to go all out, make a mistake, and it's like, okay, it's the also race. I wish we'd a bit then. We should have bet. But I think the biggest thing to me was AJ passing, who do you? he passed in the last corner the nine and the 20. He passed the nine and the 20 on the last lap to win the race. And that's pretty big.

It was big. Suarez has been consistently decent lately. I mean, he's been decent. Svarez has gotten a lot better. I mean, I think all these things, Jason did a good job bringing up things that we didn't necessarily see happening going into that race. I think it's cool, too, that a guy like Suarez transferred in

and then was able to go run second, proving that he may be deserved to be in the all-star race. When you look at the Open this year, there wasn't a lot of guys in it that are all-star worthy. You know what I mean? So for guys to come out of that race and run with these all-stars, and I mean, everybody that raced against is multiple winners, you know, Daytona 500 winners and champions,

to go up there, and this package created this to some extent too, but to go up there and run with them was cool. So let me ask you a question real quick about this open. With this package next year, does this invite more cars? Invite more cars, how? To come try to race for a million. Nah. You don't think?

You don't think you can get to that point? I don't think so. I mean, I just think, you know, what I look. You don't think somebody fields a third car or something like that to try to come and be competitive, like JTG, hey, we're going to run a third car this week, try to get that million. I mean, you could. You know, you could. I think this package definitely evens it up and it might be talked about more for an opportunity like that.

It does. But we don't know, you know, financially to bring that third car, you know, what does that cost? Yeah, I know. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. But if, am I going to spend $400,000 of trying to win a million when I'm racing against all them? guys, nah. But if you have a car there, NASCAR issues all these parts

so you know you're not going to be that far off. Yeah. You know, what if a guy, what if a veteran driver decides, hey, I'm going to come back and try the run this race or a guy that's already locked in.

Right. What if, you know, if Del Jr. wanted to come back running the officer race. Yeah. Would he be locked in? You know what I mean?

Yeah. Yeah. So. Um, off the wall topic. Oh, gosh. I hate this one. I don't even know what it means. Do you hear Yanny or Laurel?

All right. I'm going to play. Tell me what you hear. What do you hear? Laurel? You hear? Yeah, I don't hear. I don't know how you hear.

In the very beginning, I heard like Yanny, but then after that is... Yeah, it goes back and forth. This is like a spectrum of it where it can go, but it's in the middle right now, so it can go either way. So is it the pitch? Yeah. It's like an audio mess with the audio. Like you go one. There's high pitch for Yanny and low pitch for Laurel.

I'm so confused. right now. I saw people tweeting about this and I was confused and now I'm even more confused. Is this like that pants thing? The dress. It's like the dress. The dress. Yeah. Do you see green or something else? Okay. So I listened to it so many times that I started hearing Yanny because I just I'm sorry. Did you originally hear a Laurel?

I heard Laura the whole time except somebody played it at the office and I was like across the room and I heard it from afar. I heard you. Did you really waste your time listening to this a lot? Well it was like a running competition. I saw a few tweets about it. I was like this is the dumbest thing Well, it was a competition at the office of like, what could you hear? Wow.

Sorry. What could you hear? Yeah. Let's kick it. Keep going. Yeah. This is what young people do with their time now. This is true.

Oh, yeah. First ask DBC question. Matt C. Jr. asks, what makes Charlotte hard to spot at? Depends, you all? Like talking like All-Star? Are you talking normal? That All-Star was fairly difficult, in my opinion.

It was harder than, it was like a fast. plate track, like a small plate track. But I don't know, the closing rates, if we do run the high side, like the deal we got in with Larson, if the guys run on the high side, he's coming and he's digging. So if you're going to close the door, you need to do it early enough where he knows you're going to do it. Otherwise, there's opportunity to get in trouble off of four there. So I'd say off of four is probably the hardest part when the lines move.

Yeah, I mean, it's a typical mile and a half. The angles out of four are kind of tough, you know, I mean, calling them guys three and four wide back there. So when these guys were going into three, everybody was trying to run the top, so the top would really bottleneck. So if you were in the back, your instinct said, go to the bottom and pass everybody. Well, then you would do that, and you'd get back up there, and then the top line of drive back away from you because there wasn't a hole to get up.

And that was probably the hardest part. And then so on those restarts, you were working so hard to go from, in our situation, kind of the back toward the front and then get your way up as quick as you could. so you're having to be really aggressive. And four wide as Charlotte Manners, there's not a lot of room for that. Yeah. Debtenberg asks, which Xfinity Series driver do you think would party the hardest? Oh, I think I know.

Yeah, I'm not going to answer that. I think we just saw this guy's name in the paper. I asked whoever asked this question if they had the Internet or the social media tool. Who? Your feet don't fit around a branch. You're not an owl. Yeah. Do you not pay attention either?

We just had this as a... We know who was partying the hardest two weeks ago after they won Talladega. Yes, we know. I don't know, man. I guess I've gotten old, man. When we were younger, I knew who the fun guys were, but now I don't really know who the top guys real quick. Reddick's got to be fun, right?

Christopher Bell. He's a homeschool kid that's ended up rich and famous and winning races. And you got to take a homeschool kid and make him rich and famous. Shoulda, God, he's partying, right? I would be. Who else is the young guy that wouldn't, they got Redick. I don't really know John Hunter that much, so. I don't know.

Is he 21? Yeah. Yeah, he's like mid-20s. He's like 23s and 24. Daniel Hemrick doesn't look like a huge partier. No. Daniel Hammerick, he was having a good time of Talladega. Yeah.

Yeah. He don't mind kicking a few back. I can't think of any more young. Elliot Sadler's party pretty hard, but he's old. Myers' little pick was Elie. He's old like me. So the difference in, the difference in he and I is I kept going. And like when he got kids and all, like he's cut way back.

And I just try to be a good dad and a good part of here. You can do both. Kids go to bed at 9 o'clock. That is multitasking right there. Once they're at a bed, it's on. Unless they get up. I don't know. Well.

I'd have a good time. You've made that very clear. Can't help it. Meg Nelson. asks, what has been your most memorable birthday? It's Brett's birthday tomorrow. I've had 42 of them. What's your most memorable one?

I feel like I had one yesterday. Great Wolf Lodge. Yeah, Great Wolf Lodge. When I turned 21, I drove a porcelain bus all night. What? You ever done that? No. It ain't fun.

A toilet? A porcelain bus? You didn't ask what a toilet was? Oh, my gosh. Sorry, I was looking at toilet. I would probably say that one that me and our friend, my friend Tofer, we had a combined party because our birthdays are only two days apart in November. And we actually had a little get-together out there at the western town. And we had a, that was a good time.

It had a lot of good times. A lot of, I had a couple scuffles. That was the one where, you know what I'm talking about. You know, beer got spilled on a guy. He poured a beer on a girl, and then they all decided to have a brawl. My 30th birthday, we ended up in Cocktail Cove tied up with Dale Jr. When he bought that big old 42-foot C-ray boat, that jamming system in it. That was ugly.

That was fun, though. I think that was maybe the day after All-Star. Like, we ran All-Star, and then my birthday fell the day after. These guys, though, like back then, we would run an All-Star race, and we would immediately go out on the lake. And we'd stay out there all night. Yeah, it was. Casey Cain did have a party. We'd all haul butt to his house.

like, but that wasn't when we were all young. I'm sure these young guys are still doing it. Or maybe they're not. Maybe they're not. I don't hear that as much as. So we used to come back from West Coast and we would land at two, three in the morning. We would get on the boat. We would go home, take a shower, drive to the boat, get on the boat, drive the boat to the sandbar, and then go to sleep for a few hours.
