Hey, this is TJ Majors, and you're listening to DoorMumber Clear, presented by OfferPad. We're fresh off the plane from Sonoma and ready to break it all down. We'll cover Ross Chastain taking a shortcut. AJ Elmendinger's three-wide move on our restart and the All-Star Race Expectations. Let's get started. Nobody's listening, but I don't care. I'm on an episode of DoorBumper Clear. Hey, everybody, I'm T.J. Majors.

It's part of the 22 Cup Car only this weekend. Joining me. You did a good job staying out, T.J. I didn't know if that was going to work out for you, but it did. Brett Griffin's Spotter for Jet Burton up in mid Ohio for the first time ever, my inaugural trip up there. So, Freddie Craft. Spotter for Bubble Wallace this week.

Had a miserable day right up until 10 to go. And then we salvaged a decent day. We have a fill-in back with us this week. Yeah, I'm Hannah Newhouse. back once again with a do I get to introduce Janet to? Sure. Janet's here with me too.

So thanks for everyone that got on Twitter and asked to bring her because she's here, she's under the table. The last time a dog was here, TJ's dog gave me dirty looks from her chair over there for like an hour. Janet doesn't mind very well and when Dillner pointed that out she got heavily insulted. Yeah, so now she's under the table. Because what Dillner basically

said to her after he insulted her was? I mean, what's going to happen when you have kids if your dog doesn't listen? Like, what are your kids going to do? And she turned all red in the face and she looked like Brett made that sound like, Brett made that sound like Dillner said it all. But Brett started this. I couldn't believe Brett had your dog trained

because he, like he said lay down and scratch your neck and there she was scratching her neck. Brett the dog whisper. So the last two females that have sat in that chair, or the last female that sat in that chair got pregnant. Hannah, there's something to tell us. I'm going to stick it with a dog for a long time. That's exactly what she said too.

Are you in Dillon engaged yet? No. Are y'all thinking about it? Sounds like he needs to give him a phone call. Well, we at least we now have the couple's ready. I'll call them, but I don't think it's going to be in your favor. Hannah is wearing a Neil Young shirt today. Just play some Neil Young.

That'll get it done. That'll do it. Yeah, okay. Do you know Neil Young? I do not. Oh, my gosh. Holy God. This is hypocritical.

I probably do. There's no chance. I promise you that you know some songs. I promise I would do. Jason, do you know who Neil Young is? Nope. He has no idea. I heard the name.

I've heard the name. I've heard the name. the name because it's on Hannah's fucking t-shirt. Jason only listens to bro country. To bro country? Isn't it?

Yeah. He's a bro country guy. He is. What is bro country? That's what I'm wondering. Is it like new country? Like the rap country stuff. It's that new country crap.

Yeah. Great music. Like Florida Georgia Line and Nelly. Florida Georgia Line broke up, didn't they? They did? Their wives got mad at each other over Twitter during the election. Really?

Yeah, it was all over the internet, I think. If it's not all over the internet, it's still true. I got friends in the country music business. Oh, boy. Get all the rumors on here. Brett, I have a gift for you. Would you like it now? Yeah, I love gifts.

I got a gift for T.J. and Freddie. Is it a Red Bull by any chance? They both look like today. They literally look terrible. TJ looks like he got high last night. I said, TJ looks way worse than Freddie. I woke up at 906. I have way more practice at not sleeping.

And Freddie, well, Freddie looks like he, I don't know what he did why he's in California. How was California? Yeah. Wow. It's quick. I don't know. I wasn't there very fucking long. Yeah, we weren't.

It was unusual, man. Did you guys fly out Saturday? Saturday. I got to the hotel at 8 o'clock local time, you know, 8 o'clock there. In the morning? No, at night. Jason, did you open the liquor? No.

1911 bourbon whiskey I just got. And the bottles open. And the bottles open. Jason, did you open it? Jason took a sniff. He was looking at that Jameson. But I, I. We tried to get some dinner.

That was difficult. A lot of restaurants are still closed down or out of business. It's just, it's like you went back in time, and it was back in March of 2020 in California. Really? Yeah. It was definitely different. What a weird run state that place is.

Even in Petaluma, like there was a lot of restaurants were open, but there were a lot of things closed down. But it was weird being there for, I mean, I landed probably around 3 o'clock. It'll be that lovely drive from Oakland area. Because you guys had to go all the way to California on Saturday and turn around on Sunday and come all the way back, I managed to pull some strings for you guys over the weekend.

So we get more sleep? I'm scared. So you guys are going to be the new recipients of a brand new pit bulls grill. Ha! Oh. How awesome is that? Yeah. I knew it was worth it.

ready. I talked to my buddy Carlos last night with pit boss and he's like, man, I want to get these guys on the deal. What do we got to do? And I said, well, let's tell him on the podcast. Yeah, that's awesome. Thanks. I can't wait.

Yeah. We were just getting ready to start begging him. So now I'm glad to that. Yeah. Well, I've seen so many people tweet me and say, man, I bought a pit boss because of yours. I've seen a few people tweet about it. Last week, there was two or three people I retweeted that, you know, I bought a pit boss because of you guys.

So, hey, I love it. I'm glad you guys are going to get on. a pit boss grill deal let's go now we're gonna have to have like some sort of like well I posted a picture of my impressive meat last week I don't know if you saw that yeah you said something about everyone liking a good rack I was like oh my gosh right I did not see

I was talking about ribs what is wrong with you I saw the picture of the ribs oh my gosh this is already off till bad start well what did you expect we're working on four hours combined sleep over here you should probably be really happy about where'd you end up 14th yeah that's ridiculous

How'd you do that? I have no idea. You must have been on a Ross Chastain deal. I know cars that didn't have any problems that finished worse. So we ran pretty, like Bubba was doing a really good job. This was the first road course where I thought Bubba did it. Before he said it didn't do a good job. So then he speeds.

And it was a section where we were flipping lights, you know, like go from all green to three red and whatever reason. So were you doing the Freddie curve or the other curve? That guy, Denny. that'll be on the Netflix show I'm sure you guys can see it So We speed on pit road So now we got to go back to the back

We get lucky with a caution In the middle of the stage there So it kind of flips things So now we're going to flip back strategy We're going to come out But first of all Sonoma When you have an issue

It's the track is so big That you can literally pit And handle your stuff And not get lapsed So you made a pit stop Sped did the drive-through, and were you able to send a lead lap still then? Yes.

So then we're back. We cycle back. We short pit again. Now we're going to come out of top ten again. Everything's back to normal. We're back in good shape. And he comes off pit road with a flat left rear tire. Yeah.

Like as soon as he left pit road. And I'm like... How does that even happen? I'm assuming they must have knocked the valve stem out or something or Lugnuck out got in there. He literally comes out. He had talked all day about leaving pit road, like, on cold tires, leaving pit road was like ice. I was going to say was the first sip not enough? That's pretty good.

Brett's over here pouring himself a glass of whiskey. Yeah, it's 1911 bourbon whiskey. My friend Marietta in upstate New York. Anyway. My home area. You want to taste it? No, I'm good. I just want to go back to sleep.

What the hell? Oh, so we leave pit road, he's like, things on ice. Every time I leave pit road, cold tires, whatever. Well, he comes out. It's really on ice now. It's all over the place, and he's like, do you guys put flat tires on this thing? And I go, actually, yeah, the left rear is flat. He's like, are you shitting me?

So now we have to creep all the way around the racetrack. That's when we lost our lap. Yeah. So then we just rode around the back of the race for the next, I don't know, 40, 50 laps, and we're 31st, couldn't get a lap back. Like, as then we were obviously the best car. We were only car one down. Well, then they came around and lapped.

When did you get the lap back? Ten to go. Yeah, but then we had like, uh-oh. I sound like we just jumped a deer barking at Dillner I was looking for my shotgun Hey it's a camera We had like

two or three more cautious after that So you were able to throw some stickers on And knife through some people Yeah we got back up in there and just He made a hell of a three wide move to the yeses Drove around two guys like it was It can't even go too wide through the yes It's um

It's sketchy Yeah I don't So I like to the carousel a little bit more this time They were running different line through it than what they did last year. They were swinging out a lot wider. Everybody that I talked to, like on the plane last night, like Martin was talking about it, and Bubbo was talking about it, and then I seen Briscoe in the airport when we stopped. Like, they just said it was like ice, and they said it was super inconsistent.

Like, they'd go in there one time and they would hook the line and have good grip, and the next time they'd go in and blow the whole corner. He goes, and I don't know what I was doing different, but. There was a handful of tire issues yesterday. I don't know. I think there might have been just some, I don't know if there was some bad tires or something. we actually pitted that first time and had an tire issue, and our tire just had to come apart.

Like, it was just shredding. It was almost universal. Where other people were having the issue too? Lots of guys, yeah. It was a weird wear look, too, to them. Yeah. It looked to me like the 24 were, like, he'd be fast, and then all of a sudden, like, light switch, he would go back.

But the rest of the day, our tires look great. How does it, you know what I mean? Like, I don't know. It was a strange race. Did they like the carousel? Did you guys watch the F1 race with the tire issues? Yeah, you don't want to blow a tire in an F1 car. There's tire issues everywhere.

Oh, my gosh. Run it 2 million miles an hour. I much prefer the old layout of Sonoma for us because it was way easier for us to spot. It's 20 seconds a lap quicker. We didn't have to rely on anybody else. Yeah. How many spotters do you have? I had three.

Me and two others. I just had one other one. Wow. Where'd you have your guy in eight? On the backside. Yeah, because we can't see that straightaway into seven. knew that was a big time passing zone that's where my guy was that's my second guy and then I had a sacrifice when you do that you sacrifice to start finish line area for restarts and stuff stacking up

i had a guy that did an exit of 11 restarts and pit road i'll tell you what was out about mid ohio and if i were running second or fourth you could use your advantage the first guy that runs off the track creates like a puff of smoke and then the next guy that runs off the track creates a wall of dirt where you can't see a single thing it was like coda all over again i mean I think that's why Noah Gragson, Hannah, you may have saw it, knocked the front clip off his car. He probably couldn't see. On lap one, turn one. You couldn't see, though.

Yeah. They went up that hill, and I was like, ooh, I'm glad I'm starting fourth. Well, Harrison Burton did the same thing, like 15 laps later. Same exact thing on a restart, went off. Same spot Noah did. He's like, I just couldn't see. Like, I knew I was near the edge and I couldn't see, and I dropped down off of those rumple strips and... Did you go off?

Rip the oil ban out. Freddie missed the best weekend ever to be Jeb Burton spotter. Really? You know why? Why? His radio didn't work. He could hear us, but he literally could not talk back to us at all. There was a lot of people that had those issues on there.

When he keyed up, here's what it did. And you don't key it. It's like, hey, was that Jeff? So he couldn't. You sure that one just warden the car? We literally, we didn't hear this guy for the entire race. We were like, click once if you're loose, twice if you're tight. The funniest one was this one, though.

T.J. I like this one. the crew chief goes, Jab, and I love Bruce, Jeb, click one time if you can hear me, click two times if you can't. I'm like, uh, do what now? Oh my gosh. But he clicked one time.

I was like, if he clicked twice. I was like, he clicked one time. I was like, all right, so we got him. He could talk to us all day. So then I got to fast forward. Jeb ran off the track. When he ran off the track, because he said he couldn't see.

He knocked the fan off the brakes in the left front. So now, later, five laps later, the brakes fell. He goes shooting out through the kitty litter, get stuck. And Bruce is like, I was like, Bruce, we're stuck. Bruce's response was 10-4. I was like, I mean, all right, so can they tow us out of us? I think so. Meanwhile, Jeb's over there, you know, reverse forward, reverse-farer.

He's trying to get out. So Jeb keys up, and he talks for two minutes. But what we hear is, when he unkeys, Bruce goes, 10-4. And I keyed up on you. channel two and I said Bruce I know we're not supposed to be laughing right now but the fact that you said 104 we have no idea what he said was hysterical he said when the

fuck is he going to realize we can't hear it today I can't believe I you know I was flying during the Xfinity race but when I land I read on Twitter you guys did that on purpose I don't know why you did that on purpose I saw the same thing of Jeb Reckon to get the restart that's how stupid people are

day away just so you can help AJ win. Anybody who tweeted that or thought that, this is literally how stupid people are. We finished. You did it on purpose. We finished great stage one. Finish great stage two. Probably we're going to run sixth, at worst, seventh, and we lost our breaks, and we ended up in the kitty litter.

And at that point, I thought we were going to have to go behind a wall, because I thought we junked it. So why would you do it on purpose? You wouldn't. Like, well, I don't know. Why would people? AJ, because AJ needed a caution to catch the leaders. Cendrick was checked out.

Yeah. So we were going to do that. Yeah. So there's some sort of code that you have for getting stuck in the... Click twice. Click six times if you could spin out. That's it. When you say click twice, that's key for Jed to put it in the same.

That's it. This is literally, I went out of a few people on Twitter. That's literally how stupid people are. That's the first. Yeah. Weird. Yeah. All right, guys, let's hear a little bit more about our great presenting sponsor of Offerpad.

We're headed to Texas Motor Speedway this weekend, and the last time we were there, Freddie, we almost bought a home with Offerpad after all those damn rain delays.

Yeah, when asked where you heard about OfferPad, select the NASCAR option so they know we sent you. Time for Spot on, Spot Off. The first one here is A.J. Almondinger with Black Flagged for having a pit stop that was too fast in the Xfinity series at Mid-Ohio. And I feel like we have to explain this. first that pit stops, yeah, pit stops were regulated in that they couldn't come, pit road would only be open for two laps. They had to come down pit road two times if they wanted fuel and tires. They could only get one or the other in each stop and they had to be faster than or under 50 seconds,

right? No, they had to be at least 50 seconds. Yeah. But that was under caution. If you pit it under green, you had to bid, it was the 50 second deal. What a mess. It was confusing and I was on The road calling the race. I'm already confused right now. Yeah. It was so confusing. The worst part was it was yellow line to yellow line. So it's not like 50 seconds in your box.

So now you've only got what, I mean, you were there. You can tell me, but you've got one practice run down pit road, I'm sure. Would they pit for a water bottle? No, I mean, fuel whatever. That's quick. I mean. So, I mean, surely the engineers have some kind of formula where they can do this math. But, I mean, you're still relying on an unproven formula.

to figure out the yellow line to yellow line speed. And if AJ runs this, you know, like, it's just way too many factors in there for me. I mean, a rule is a rule. He guess he broke and he deserved a penalty. But it's just with the lack of practice and everything else, it seems like a bit of a tough rule for me. You can't lose positions, though, right?

No, you can. You can under green. This isn't like the Archer rule. Oh, so you actually have to come down there. It's a live pit stop. He was pitting before the stage ended to flip the stage, essentially to come out, fresh tires, and get the lead. So you need to figure out what your running pit road speed would is and then add in what you think your pit stop's going to be and then stop and release them on that.

Correct. So Ty Gibbs is on the exact same strategy. Well, math involved. So if you go too long, Ty Gibbs could beat you off, right? So it's a hard thing. You run 55 seconds. He runs 52. You're going to beat them off, whatever.

I'm not awake enough for this. So how many seconds was he early? Two. I hope he wasn't that fast. Here's what the, here's what the NASCAR communications said. It said, post is 16. Can not beat anybody off on Peter Road.

His pit stop was too fast. And I'm like his pit stop was too fast. That's that impossible. Well, what happens is these geniuses that run the Xfinity Series teams, and this is going to get ugly, but I'm going to say it anyway. They go to the bathroom, hang out. They go to NASCAR and they say, hey, we want to save money. We don't want to have to pay for these pit crews to come all the way to them in Ohio.

Then we got to pay for them to get to Sonoma because they're coming here for us. So how do we do this pit stop thing and it cost us less money? Well, this was the answer, right? So to me, this is probably a committee thing in the Xfinity series in collaboration with NASCAR, where they come up with this crazy way to do pit stops. And it's a two-lap process, as Hannah mentioned, under yellow, under green. It's a one-time process, but you can't be under 50 seconds. and you can't beat anybody off.

So it's a weird thing. I don't like, I mean, and we're going to do this at Road America? I mean, I guess not now because Cups there, right? Cups there. But they did this last year at Road America, I think. And I mean, you're going to extend the caution period, another lap at Road America. How long is that place? Like 18 miles.

And that's what I'll say about Mid-O-Hio. It's forever long. Have you guys been to Mid-O-Hia? No. It's beautiful. Beautiful racetrack. Awesome distance because of what you just said. When the caution comes out, the caution laps go pretty quickly.

And as a spotter, like you're spotting and you can see about 60% of the track where I was at, you stay entertained. It's not like Watkins Glen where you spot 13 seconds and you lose them for a minute, right? So I think it's an awesome race track. The problem with that area and as far as Cup goes is I don't know where you would stay because Mansfield, Ohio is like pageantone on steroids. It's a hithole. Like I found a little diner. Some holiday inn in Mansfield. Oh, we stayed in Ashland.

It was pretty nice. So I found a little diner to eat breakfast and lunch. And I found a gun store, bought a bunch of ammo, and I found a little bar to have a beer and watch the Game Cox play baseball. Like, there's just not a lot. I don't know how they got the infrastructure to have a Cup Series come there. All right. Well, we'll just go on to the next one there.

The next one is Ty Gibbs calls Almondinger's three-wide move on a late restart dirty at Mid-Ohio. Freddie, you can start. I mean, spot off. Maybe he forgot how he won his first Xfinity race. I mean, I'm pretty sure he was three-wide into turn one through the grass. was that dirty? This is one of my issues that I've had with Ty for the last year,

so he's a bit of a sore loser. And we've talked about on here how impressive he's been, and he's impressive again. He's up there racing with Austin Cindrick and A.J. Almonddinger at road course for a win. I mean, that's super impressive. But, you know, you go back now, you know, sounds like sour grapes, that's a dirty move.

I didn't think it was a dirty move. AJ, the hole was there. AJ filled it. AJ had led both. I mean, when I left, AJ was dominating the race, like towards the end of the first stage. So I don't know if anything changed since then,

you know, before the penalty. But, you know, AJ's going for it. I'm sorry. That's what he's going to do. That's what he's always done. But, you know, like,

go back to the Daytona Raker race. Ties complaining because these Venerini guys worked together to beat him. You know, like, I'm sorry we had team cars and you didn't, but, you know, like, it's not our fault. He's, that's creepy.

I wouldn't never do that. You know, I would never let somebody else in line and let them win. It just sounds like sour grapes sometimes. That's kind of the maturity level what we talked about when he was on here. Like show the emotion, but kind of trend in a different direction. I am spot on for him saying what he thinks. I think we need more guys like that. I think he's going to be a little bit of a loose cannon until either his grandpa or NASCAR bust his chops, right? But the reality is, man, you got to put your big boy panties on. This is the Xfinity series.

They're going to race their tails off. They're not going to give it to you just because you're in a fast car or whatever. You led the most laps. You won two out of six races that you've been in. AJ Amundinger had to start last because of a penalty at the end of stage two. And he won the race in 20 laps later. Like that's what you're racing against Ties, guys that are animals. You talk about it.

We always talk about on here like, you know, you got a plan. So I'm sure Ty's going in that restart. He's got a plan. And when's the plan change? As soon as you go green. Well, you get punched in the mouth. And he got punched in the mouth by AJ Almondinger here. You know, and that's what that threw his plan off.

Yeah. if this ties in this spot he's making the same move 100% I mean even at the end of the can in race last year david gilland was leading it and Phoenix were you doing that race yeah and the last lap last corner down there in three and four tie sales are off in there from about seven carlings back trying to hit him and he almost got to him and like i don't a jays paid to win that race and and and i don't a jays paid to win that race and he's doing what it took and man I don't you know how many moves are made in the middle of the pack like that

that's like this is one thing that I don't think that Ty is missing out on that he's been in such a good equipment his entire his entire career that he's not seeing what it's like back there and you know they're it's just hard man and guys make moves and you take what you can get on resource because you might not get another shot at it so I don't think

I mean, AJ won the race. How can, and I've seen, I've seen Ty, you know, try to bump people, him and that Corey Ham kid run over, running to each other almost every arc race there is. So I see Ty making the same move, and he'll learn over time, I think, as well. I think it's just, you know, he's just upset at the moment, you know. We didn't win. He won, like, the last 18 races that he's been in. Well, speaking of that, like, how much pressure is this kid putting on Harrison Burton and Daniel

Hemrick and Brandon Jones? Shoot. And that's what I get. That's my thing about social media. They're like, oh, this guy's got a rich grandpa. Well, yeah. This guy's in the best car out there. There's three cars just like it right beside of him, and he's kicking their ass.

Yeah. Yeah, I think. And he's not running any races. I mean, he's doing well. He's almost ahead of Riley Herbst in points. He's five points behind Riley Herbst. Riley Herbst has run every race. Ty Gibbs has run seven.

It's 13 versus seven. Yeah. I like Ty's aggressiveness, ma'am. I think it's great. I have no issue with it. But at the same time, like, if you're going to be aggressive, you better to expect to get it back. It's going to, yes, you've got to be ready. And when it happens, this is where you just...

When Jeremy Mayfield moved Dale Earnhardt out of the way at Pocono to win that race. I don't remember what year that was. I'm going to guess 98, 99. I don't remember. It might have been 97, but it was around that error. Hey, live by the sword, die by the sword. Yeah, I mean, Ty Gibbs would have made the same move to win that race. Yeah.

100%. Speaking of Dale Earnhardt, did you guys listen to the Dell Jr. Down Low with Ty Norse. What a great podcast. Did you listen? I know. Shut up, Jason. I have it downloaded.

I mean, what an idiot. It's. Hey, awesome show. If you guys haven't listened yet, definitely go check it out. You can't say that, Jason. Ty and Dale told a lot of stories about Dale Earnhardt that I was surprised to hear. Dale Jr. told a story about him at a junkyard that blew my mind.

Yeah. And he told, Ty told a story about his knee and Dale Earnhardt that blew my mind. And they also kind of went to where nobody goes. They talked about Teresa. So, huge, a big fan of the show anyway, but they did a hell of a job of that one. I think they did that with Carrie, right? I was going to say, Carrie did too. The Carrie episode was a good one, yeah.

Yeah, yeah. Ross Chastain not penalized for taking a shortcut through Turn 11 after getting into Cory LaJoy and triggering a wreck, TJ. He didn't get anything. Are you shitting me? I mean, I looked at the replay, and he would have came out further back if he went the other way, like the cars that he was racing, he ended up merging him behind. Of course he did, because he cut a whole corner off. Well, only half of it.

He cut a half a mile of the racetrack off. Look, I, like, and he was running 9,000 miles an hour, and they were running 60. If he is... Let me ask you a question. If you shortcut a chicane at Roval, what happens? Well, do you stop or not? You stop. You have to stop.

No, I said, did you stop or not? You got to stop, though. I mean... Did he stop when he shortcut the track? I didn't... I didn't look at him see if he stopped or not away. He was backwards. This might have been about $4.50 in the morning when I saw this.

So I don't remember. I just saw him on. I am actually spot on for what Ross did because as a race car driver, your mentality is go. And Ross Chastain calls the wreck. Ross Chastain spun out, was facing backwards. And somehow or another, he managed to at least maintain, if not improve his position literally 300 yards later.

He was running, grabbing gears, flying through the infighting. field. Dust fly up. This is the dumbest I have seen all year to be allowed. I don't even know how to say an equivalent. If NASCAR and they will go back and look at this on Tuesday and they'll have their debrief and they're going to look at this and they're going to say, boy, do we have a bad rule here. This guy was allowed to take the snap on the field as a football wide receiver.

He was allowed to run off the field, run behind the other team's bench, run, weave through the cheerleaders and they come back in the end zone and catch the touchdown. This was a major miss. Clint Boyer brought it up after the commercial break. and basically said, is this going to be allowed? And NASCAR came back and said yes, because the most recent scoring loop, Ross cleared it. That's where he was running.

This is insane that this happened, Freddie. Why does it go to the scoring look? You have video where he... You can see. You have video. Like, these... He passed 10 cars after he read. Do you know where the scoring loops are?

No. The scoring loop is the entry to pit road, the wall, you know, where the break in the wall is, and then the next one's a star finish line. How big a gap is that? So you can pass somebody into 11. So you can pass somebody into 11, a caution comes out. You're going back behind. So that happened to us, and it's got to be similar down there in 7-ish,

because we passed the 14, and we're halfway through the S's in the caution. We pass them like into 7, and we're halfway through the yeses, and the caution comes out, and they're like 14. I'm like, we've talked about this, TJ on the show, with all this SMT data when they throw the caution, can't we freeze the fill in real time? It should be locked right then. like that.

This scoring loop crap's got to go away. Yeah, I don't. Me and you would literally make fun of each other at Phoenix one year. We were racing each other and we would go down each other and go, hey, they got this wrong. You were in front of me and sometimes I won, sometimes TJ won. And it was, you actually felt bad for the other guy because he worked so hard to get a ride in here. Then they put you back in front of him like, oh, now you can do that all again. You know, I'm sorry, but this was just, I mean, you can't, we have rules in place at all these other racetracks

so you cannot shortcut the racetrack without a penalty. The penalty is you either stop immediately or. you got to do a drive-through. Well, he was backwards and then took off and cut the track. That still stopped, right? Yeah, but he didn't know. He cut the track after he was stopped. Did he come to zero mile an hour?

No, not after he cut the race trap. T-J, this would literally be the equivalent of there is a wreck in the trial of what, Charlotte, okay, and everybody's slowing down to miss the wreck. But you decide to go down pit road wide open and never slow down, and to come out and turn one, ten spots ahead of where you started. Well, yeah, if I'm doing it's fine. Like you said, hey, listen, there's no fault on Ross here. Ross said exactly what he's supposed to do. I lay all the blame at who's ever making that decision in the tower. Yeah.

Next one here, kind of similar. Ryan Priest spins, then re-enters the track in the middle of traffic and gets ran into by Cody Ware.

Freddie. Go ahead, do it. Priest got himself a Campbell sandwich here. He did. I had to listen to a mostly way to the airport. He come across the nose of the 21, which is spotted for by Doug Campbell. I don't know. I heard maybe some...

Which makes it better because Doug Campbell and Priese are like best friends. There's BF. There's bromance going on. You should see the group chat from my ride to the airport. Oh, I bet. It was great. But so he comes across the nose of the 21. I don't know what happened there.

It was the Ss were kind of a tricky spot where if you had a guy in attorney, he was doing it or where we were doing it, we were in the primary spot. Well, Priest made a comment, I think, on the broadcast. He did say something about nobody was spotting or something. I don't know if he was talking about his guys or the 51. I don't know. Or Doug. Anyway, or Doug.

So, whatever. He spins off the nose of the 21 spotter four by Doug Campbell. And then obviously he's pissed off. And he just throttles back up and pulls back in the racetrack. And here comes the 51 spotted four by Joe Campbell, Doug's brother. And you couldn't see. Like, spotters couldn't see. Like when Priest went in there, it's just a big dust cloud.

Same as like you're talking about in Mid-O-Hio. So I didn't even know what happened back there by the time it was over. But you see the 51. I see the replay. 51 comes back on and clips them. And just has, I mean, he's tore up. But he decides, if he ended my day right here, I'm ending his day. And he just throttles up and doors, he hits them square into doors as hard as he could.

But I thought it was pretty funny, just a situation as close as the Campbell brothers and Ryan are, that that was the three of them all in one wreck. I saw it. I saw it happen. The last time I went to Doug's house, Ryan Priest was laying on a big old beanbag. like he was sleeping over and Joey's on the couch and Doug's over there, I race and like, this isn't good for the friendship, guys.

So I saw it happen and I saw a priest out in the dirt and he never like, everything was like a continuous motion. He got it rolling and it was right where it like comes back the other way. So he kind of like cut the, he cut one of the S's. And when he came back on, he was not like at a, he wasn't at like, okay, I'm coming in from the last one on the state of the left. came back on and was like, I'm coming straight on to the track and I'm crossing the lanes.

Oh yeah, I saw it. I saw it. And, yeah, he clipped that other car and... I mean... Then Joe, the little Campbell guy, went down there and he was like so mad. He gets real mad. It's fun. He did one of them, I know you're not...

I know it's not you, but... That's my favorite. Oh, yeah. It's not me, but you're still fucking yelling at me. It was pretty good. Poor, poor, the group chat lit up. We have a group chat. It's like me, Priest, Doug, Joey,

Tommy Baldwin, and it's just, Doug is just brutal. I mean, it's... So he calls Priest on the way back to the airport, and he puts a speaker phone away. He was like, oh, I wanted to give you a little bit of time to, you know, relax and calm down. But what the... There's no punches pulled in that relationship.

at all. If you just watch a modified race with them, we're going. All right. Super Speedway Arrow Package with 510 horsepower in use this weekend at Texas for the All-Star race, Brett. Spot off. I want more horsepower. You know, Chris Rice was in here and said he likes this because he's a late model guy and

he wants to see him going fast through the center corner. But man, that's not me. Freddie and I were doing some recon on next year's engine program. Sounds like they're looking for like $6.50 in this next-gen car. if our resources are accurate. And I'm a lot bigger fan of that, that I am this 500 number we keep hearing. Yeah, I mean, you're just never going to convince me

that less horsepower is a good thing. I don't know. It's just not, I don't care what, how much we're packed up, how much we're racing each other. Just, I don't know. But I did see people were complaining, you know, that they, you know, we're crazy on here a couple weeks ago.

We said we wanted one package, you know, instead of the, you know, switching back and forth. And they're like, short tracks are way better now because of $750. Listen, I'll give up a little bit on short tracks to gain another 100 horsepower on these intermediate, mile and a halfs, whatever. So, yeah, like, we've heard that number thrown around a little bit, and listen, I'm all for it. What short track is better with less horsepower? No, they're saying more horsepower, but they're saying we were talking about, you know, maybe finding a happy medium between the 750 and a 550 and they're like, well, we don't want to give up horsepower on the short track.

I'll give up a little horsepower on a short track to make every other race better. Just give them a big motor the entire time. Yeah. That's not what the... Look, if we're not going to run the big motor, might as well give them one that... I mean, the first time we ran this package, it was exciting. So we're going to go down there with no horsepower,

and then we're going to throw cautions every 10 laps, right? Yeah. Sounds like a perfect race for us. We're just going to keep... I mean, there's like six stages, right? Yeah, you thought mid-Ohio pit stops were confusing. All-Star format is way worse. My biggest thing is, this is the all-star race,

and now we're making the cars easier to drive. Like, I don't get it. going to Texas. Well, I'm going to tell you who's the all-star right now. I think this guy's best in the world. Kyle Larson. Carl Larson. I don't think anybody is better than Kyle Larson right now. In the world. I'd put him up against anybody in the world. In anything. He's going to the dream this weekend. I'm excited for that. He's living the dream. I was in a midget Monday Twitter space thing the other night. Somebody asked me like who's the best driver is. And I'm like, how do you not say Kyle Larson?

In the world, in anything. Yeah. I mean, the guy wins in every, he got, he just, I mean, obviously he's been a good sprint car racer, good midget racer forever. The middle of last season, he just decides he's going to be a dirt late model racer. Oh, I'm just going to dominate the first race I get in. Okay, no problem. Uh, you know, like Hannah said, he's going to the dream this week. That's probably the biggest dirt laid model race in the country. It is. Yeah. And he's just, I mean, he's a probably instant favorite to win that race. Yeah. When is that race? Saturday? Uh, Friday, Saturday, Sunday. So he's going to run the dream and then go to the All-Star.

Mm-hmm. Hmm. That'd be exciting. Um, yeah, I don't, I mean, he's fast, man. And he won, wins the 600, gets out Monday night, goes and wins a Board of Outlaw or Alls, whatever that rate. World Outlaw race. There's an All-Star race, isn't it? No, I think it was Outlaw race. How many drivers are they letting into the All-Star race that aren't All-Stars this year? I think four again? Four. That's a lot.

I think three stage winners and the family. That's a lot of honorable mentions. Yeah, normally back in the day, it was like, I hate to say this because this is going to be bad and this is going to sound bad. Second time you said that. Hold on, hold on. Let me say it for you. Brett's not trying to be a d'i-a-a-h-h-h- There is not a worse race to win in this sport than the Open race. I called the Open to Clint Boyer 50 for like seven years in a row because Brett won it every year.

Like you're not an All-Star, right? And they make you go to this event and you have to run this race. And then if you win, you have to stick around for another eight hours. Do you remember your birthday party? But you're not an All-Star. Yeah, I remember my birthday party got canceled because we won the freaking All-Star Open. We had a Brett had a birthday party plan

For the All-Star weekend And I was in the open Roman Pemberton There's a like Whoever was going to Brett's party Won every stage of the open And Brett's like Well I guess I'm just going to drink by myself

And I think Yeah Shit Oh Boy Casey Kane is still the only guy To win The All-Star race

That wasn't an all-star guy to start with No I think Larson did Larson did it I think so When he won that million bucks? I think he won a million. He came out of the open, I think.

Okay. Well, that makes sense. He wins everything else. Yeah. I saw him the next day after he won a million bucks. How about his old lady freaking shotgun of beers? I love it. Yeah, she shot gunned a beer while he drank the wine out of that glass in Victory Lane this weekend.

That was cool. Love it. All right. Last one here. The Superstar Racing Experience, SRX, said it has the greatest group of drivers ever assembled in an email press release ahead of its first race this upcoming weekend at Stafford Saturday night. Here's the drivers in SRX for this Saturday night. Greg Biffel, Paul Tracy, Tony Canaan, Ernie Francis Jr., Bill Elliott, Tony Stewart, Elio Castornevas, Bobby Labani, Michael Waldrip, Willie T. Ribs, Marco Andreddy.

And Doug Kobe. Yes. Yeah, he's a ringer. Oh, really? Yeah, there's a couple people that are in it. I'm a huge fan of this series. I think it's going to be fun to see what happens with it. Ryan McKinney's spearheading it.

Like that guy a lot. His kid plays baseball. My kid. But this is not the greatest group of drivers ever assembled because Kyle Larson's not of the race. And he's the greatest driver in the world right now. It's a very diverse group of drivers. It's a very diverse group of drivers.

Let me tell you something. This is probably, I went back and looked last night. That's why I was up until 6 in the morning. 211 NASCAR National Series wins in this race. Over 81 IndyCar wins. 12 champions in National Series. Four Daytona 500s, five Indie 500s. This is a pretty impressive field.

Honestly, I'm excited for like the first. personalities that they have in this group between Tony and Willie T. Ribs and Paul Tracy, like CBS is live. They're doing this as a live show, and I hope someone has a sensor button, because it is going to be interesting. You imagine if Paul Tracy turned Tony? Yeah. Something like that. As far as like, that's too big egos right there. Yeah, branding boxing loves. There is a group there that I think will put on a really good show and have a really good race, but there's also, I think there's going to be guys that are struggling to figure it out. I got to be honest, I don't even know who Ernie Francis is.

He's a Trans Am driver. He's young. He's like in his 20s, but he's like a standout Transam guy. He's one of the best drivers in the world. That's what it says. Ever assembled. Ever assembled. Yeah.

And they've got other guys, right? I mean, Scott Speed's going to run. There's a bunch of guys that are running. Haley Degan. Yeah, Deegan's running. Kobe's running. I didn't say Hayley. Is it Cody Dara running?

or who's running the... Bloomer. Blumer. Oh, yeah. Him Scott Speed and... Here's what I'm concerned about. Since we're laying everything out on this show today. Here's what I'm concerned about.

You're laying everything else. Here's what I'm concerned about. If you're between 15 and 28 years old, do you know who any of these people are? Answer by... So no. Jason, do you? Well, if you're a fan of NASCAR as a kid and that's what excites me about it,

like all the personalities I love watching growing up, when I was really young, that's what excites me about it. But most people who didn't watch NASCAR back then don't have any idea. So most of my friends have no idea who any of these people are, right? And so when this series launched, I reached out to SRX and I said, I want to be involved because I think we need to be putting out digital content so that someone like me who's scrolling Twitter goes, oh, I don't know who Willie T. Ribs is. I do.

But like, let's tell the story. Let's tell the story. Click it. They can watch a minute 30 on why they should watch Willie T. Ribs. because to a large demographic, they don't know who these drivers are. And then especially, like, again, and I think it's a great all-star lineup that they have, even in, like, the broadcast crew. But you've got Alan Bestwick, who, if you followed NASCAR, you know who that is.

Great, awesome. But if you're a newcomer or whatever, you don't know that, like, Alan Bestwick, Matt Yoke. I'm like, they got the good old boys club still in the broadcast booth, too. And I'm like, you guys need someone that can bridge that gap between my demographic and that. I think people in their 40s that are huge race fans are excited about what this is. Guess who that is? That's me.

But I think that people 15, 25, 30 years old, have no idea who these guys even are. Yeah. Because they hadn't raced him forever. Yeah, like. Mike Waltrip, four Daytona 500 wins or three, whatever it is. I mean, guys, guys done a lot. One four, whatever play races he's won, right? Someone on Twitter told me, I only know Paul Tracy because he calls the Indy Car series.

Didn't even know that Paul Tracy used to race in the Indy Car series. He's like nothing about him. They just happened to have watched an Indian race. When was the last time Willie T. Ribbs drove a race car? Bill Elliott. Against his son 10 years ago. No. I made a bunch of them.

Bill Elliott ran an Accinity race. Yeah, rode America. Yeah, like two years ago. And mid Ohio, I think, and then ran a couple Trans Am races. You know, GMS. Yeah. I just think there's a huge miss on bringing in a yarn crowd. But maybe that's why they're bringing in Haley Degan.

Yeah. Maybe that's why they're bringing in the Transam guy, right? To go after that demographic. I personally don't think that works, but I'm still no matter what excited to see what these cars look like on the race track, drive like. And Stafford will be cool. That's a good place to start the season on. I'm really excited to see Stafford get national attention like that because it's still, it pains me to say this because it's Megan's home track versus my home track. But Stafford is probably the greatest short track in the country in my opinion.

It's amazing, how it's ran the program, the racing. And that's why this series will work when I Rock didn't because I rock ran at Michigan and all the big tracks. So dumb. And it was dumb. And this is a great move. I'm a big fan. I hope it works out for it. Hey, what's up, DBC fans?

If you haven't heard about Anchor, it's the easiest way to make a podcast. Let us explain. Well, first of all, Freddie, the best part is it's free.

TJ will be your first guest. So download the free Anchor app or go to anchor. F-M to get started. That's A-N-C-H-O-R-F-M to get started. Time for reaction theater. Love this. Call number one, Jason. Hey, y'all, a long time first time.

Wanted to chime in to let you know that my favorite part of the podcast is listening to grown-ass men about the losers who hurt their feelings on social media. You're such a pansy. You didn't even leave your name. name. I was a little distracted. I was a little distracted. I was waiting for Janet to try and bark

at Jr. I was like, please don't. If you're going to bark at anyone, please don't bark at him. Del Jr. just gave TJ a package. What's in a package, T.J. It's all his data. It looks like a computer, but it's not look like a computer to me. It's a computer to me. It's a computer. It's long and never mind. You see that picture? Go to the next question. See that picture he posted last week? Sent that table racing on a laptop. He had to borrow my laptop. Oh yeah. When he was in a mountains, racing? Yeah. Gotcha. All right.

We're going to go to call number two. I didn't even listen to. If you just said anonymous, I don't even listen to you. No more anonymous makes a show, Jason. Okay. If you scare, go to church. I'd like to start with my What an Idiot Award for the week. Brandon Brown caught speeding on pit road with non-competitive pit stops.

Figure that one out. But hey, kudos Brett Griffin. Look like you were pulling old double duty there for colleague racing, Spotter, and front tire carrier on the 11. Or at least I assume that was you after watching that guy tubby riding with that good year. But hey, great race this weekend, and Joey and T.J., you kick ass.

That is a good point about speeding on pit road. How many times when your driver pits do you say, don't speed? It's like every single time. It is the worst penalty that you can give yourself. The gain... Especially when you're supposed to be slow. The game...

The gain is so minimal to push it that far. Like, it's so, you're gaining, what, a car length at most? Yeah, tenths of a second. And the penalty for the pushing in due far is so, so severe that you, it's, like, for us, man, me and you, we get us being paling. It's hard to get back up there. I spent 40 laps trying to get back up there. Speaking of Brett going over the wall, I still think we should do the DBC pit stop. Nobody wants to see that.

I think everyone wants to do that. All right, call number three. Raleigh Hurts runs out of talent again. Caust the eight car top five spot. What a . But for real, I fuck that guy. TJ, you suck. Did you see that?

Did you see that Herp's crew chief and Andy Lally got into it, Boswell and Lally got into it on pit road after the race. Because Lally was, Boswell went up to Lally and got mad at him for dumping Hurps, but Herbst had dumped Palluto, and Lally just returned the favor for Palludo and sent Herbs to the, I didn't see it. But somebody told me that Riley run Andy off the racetrack,

and that's the worst guy to run off the racetrack because he's got nothing to lose. He was so smart about it too. Like if you watch the replay of how he did it, is Herps was just in his door, in his door, in his door, in his door. And he goes, ha, watch this. tapped the break, backed up a little bit, and Herps just went right across his nose and spun himself out. And so it's like...

Well, he's a smart guy. I like Andy. Fish fifth. Me too. Yeah, he was super stoked. You know what that guy's from? He's a cool guy. Long Island.

I like Andy. He's actually, I never really got to know him in the cup side when he ran, but with some sports car stuff, I got to know him a little bit. I like it. It's a good dude. All right, call number four. My boy, Kyle Larson, dominating. Sonoma.

19 to go. What do we have? Yellow flag. Quinn, how. For a fucking sake. I was trying to figure out here what QF. Oh, I knew.

As soon as I looked, I knew what it was. This is the caution I think I had the most problem with, because this is, he rolled out of the, like, he kept rolling up the excess road off the racetrack and got out of the way.

And I don't, like, is that the one in? Yeah. He was right out of it. Yeah. He didn't, He went straight to the carousel. Yeah.

Yeah. So if you do that, I mean, what's... He exited the racing service. And as soon as he did, they threw the caution. They didn't wait even a split second. That's the most unnecessary one that I thought we had. The other ones... I honestly think that the...

Listen, it benefited my... It made my entire race. The 1 and 11? Yeah. Yeah. There was no reason for a caution. But I guess there was debris. Everybody was getting rolling.

I guess there was debris laying in the track. I didn't see debris. I didn't know. I honestly couldn't see that for it. All right, looks like we got another song. Call number five. I got friends who spot the races. Old Brick Griffin's Gap needs a set of braces and old T.J.

Wishes he could spot for old Chase. I just bought a pair of those air. Freddy's sitting on my feet. Damn, these boys are heavy. BDBC podcast His best with donkeys head is up Downer's ass

That's pretty good That's pretty good That one Is this the same guy that's been singing the last couple weeks? I think it's a different guy That sounds different Yeah that's that guy was different That one's up there near the top

That's pretty good Well played That was good My kids are getting braces by the way Y'all want to talk about expensive Man you can spend $5,000 on the mouth In like no time I bet

Yikes. Keeley's going today to get something done. It's like the thing they do right before they do the braces, the brackets maybe. Brett's kids. I don't know. Every time I go over there, different ones in a cast or something else is going on, I don't know. You stay active over there.

I'll give you that. Dude, kids are wild. And they leave the house. I'm going to grow up a bike. You don't know what they're coming back with. Scraped up knee, broken arm, broken foot, something. I go to a baseball. game a couple weeks ago and bro, Boady looked

Body knows a rule. If you're going to be done, you got to be tough. Yeah. All right, call number six. Hey, Freddy. This is Jeff over at custom shirts your way.com. Just calling and confirming the details on the

shirt order design you put in with it yesterday. looks like you got Denny is daddy going on the back with a picture of a FedEx race car and you laying on the hood in a speedo. Unfortunately, we won't be able to use the FedEx logo due to trademark issues, but we sure can make something work if you'd like to. Just give me a call back to confirm the details. And also, we want to make sure that you do want the XXXXL. That is our biggest size. So just so you know. Oh, and tell T.J, we got his Ligano makes me hollow.

boxer shipped out to him this morning. They should be there anytime Tuesday. So just thank you, sir, and have a great day. That's pretty good. That's a good one. Byron. That's thought, well thought. That was good. Well thought out there. Jason, let me ask you a question. Did Jonathan Davis call in? Not that I heard. Okay. He asked me for the link, and I was terrified of what that meant. He was on the spotter stand beside of me this weekend and met Ohio, and he looked at me under one of the

cautions. He said, I'm calling in a reaction thing. this week. I think he probably did. I just don't think he must have had a... He must not have had a good enough message to make the show. I wonder what happened to make him call in. I have a feeling his message. If he was going to call in,

I have a feeling his message was probably too good to get on the show. Solid chance. Yikes. All right, if you guys want to leave an audio message, you can do so 24-7. Just head on over to anchor.fm backslash door bumper clear. Click that message icon, and we will play the best ones each week here on the show.

I'm glad you let somebody else read it. outro this week. T.J. Did it last week. That's because I didn't want. Oh, boy. All right. Offer pad.

Question of the week. Moving on to offer pad. Question of the week. That's a snazzy little offer pad yeti you got there, too. I keep looking at it. Yeah, I should have got mine out. For sale? Yeah.

I literally woke up at $9,000. All right. I'll get right on that. I literally woke up at 906 and I was like, I got to go. I got a shower and go. You got there fast. Yikes.

Dude. And then my wife. wife comes like, hey, my computer's screws just went blank. What do I do? And I'm one of them looked at and she's got one of them dogs where the laptop on and all her work stuff. And I'm like, oh, man, I don't know. This is bad. This is going to take a little while. I'll tell you tomorrow. Yeah. Take a day off. Because you've got a vacation day. Just use it right now. All right. Here's the Offerpad question of the week. What was your favorite part of the home that you grew up in? Brett, you can start.

Man. Old Pageland. There's a lot of favorite parts. I mean, live. them aside a cemetery was fun. That's, yeah. Yeah, it's strange. The favorite part of my home, though, was actually we had a covered porch. And my sister, who's in a wheelchair, it had a huge ramp that came up this covered porch, right? So I'd jump when my mom wasn't home. Could you ride down it?

My dirt bike off the covered porch, my bicycle off the porch, skateboard down the ramp. So probably the covered porch was hands. And I look, it was a really small, two-bedroom, one bath. house. Is this where your mom lives now? I said, you wonder why Bodie's always in a cast. So my mom lives now, but now it's a sunroom. So she closed it in, and that's where she sits all the time. But, I mean, there were four or five of us in a tiny house, and so I didn't want to be

inside with all that going on. I'd stay outside. I have no idea. I moved all the time. I probably lived in 35 houses when I was a kid, so I was all over the place. I don't really have any fond memories of any of them, be honest with you. I wasn't really inside a lot as a kid, so. I mean, I was off on my bike all the time

But if I was home I'd probably say in my room Because I did a lot of Dumb stuff in that room Like we So One house I can remember We lived in Kings Park

Long Island And this had this big ass hill Right next to my house Like steep And my brother and my cousin Tom Ferrara He runs a race car Riverhead now for my dad Uh

They have had this great idea. They were going to stick me in one of them little tight scars, you know, the yellow one with the red roof or whatever. The ones we see clips on on Twitter where people crash. They're like, we're going to push you down the hill and I'm like, oh yeah, that'd be cool. And the hill kind of curves a little bit. Yeah. I don't know, this is my sister's little tight scar. I've never sat in this thing.

I'm like, hell yeah, push me down there. I'll fly. Well, I get in there's thing. I wedge myself in there. I'm like, I don't know, 12, 13 years old probably. I get in this thing and my cousin shoots me down the hill and John's laughing his ass off. And my cousin's like, what's so funny? He's like, that thing don't turn. You know, he's like, and I get in there. And the wheel is just, just spins. You know, it's not connected to nothing. I'm like, oh, here I go. I'm probably running

50 miles an hour in a little tax card down this hill. And it's just cars lined up, parked on the side of the road. And I'm just, I'm leaning out the side of the thing, trying to just get it to miss the cars. And I miss a car, hit the curb, fly out, hit a tree. I'm dead. My cousin, they're trying to chase me down the hill because he's, He didn't know it didn't turn either. John was the only one that knew a turn, and he was trying to kill me, apparently. John didn't care. He just wanted to see what happened.

He was all about a good story. They're like, I've never seen a plastic car shoot sparks off before, but that's what happened. It was bottomed out, man. Probably my favorite time, like being in the house as a kid is, when did Nintendo come out, like, 84? 85, yeah. So it came out and it was like, no, I was like, I'm going to say it was either than that. It's later than that. You, it's 89.

I was in high school. He was going to say he likes math over here. earlier. We said 89. I was a freaking high school. I will say it's probably 87 or 8. Jason's Googling it right now. He'll tell us.

There's no way it was 89. I was 84. I was 87. So I was a kid and Nintendo comes out. Not 89. It was like 200 bucks, you know, at the time. That was a lot then, too. I was like, man, $200.

I got to have a Nintendo mom. She's like, yeah, right. You're not getting a Nintendo. So I'm like, well, I got to figure out of way to get Nintendo. So I entered a talent contest in Clemson and it paid $200 to win. Where? Clemson. So I go to Clemson.

Thompson University. It was at Tillman Hall. So I go in there and I win this talent contest. And I literally leave straight from there and go by a freaking entail. What was your talent? I want to know what your talent was. It was probably clogging. It was clogging.

It was a way earlier than I thought. 83. I think 84 is when I won a talent contest. Wow. And hey, Super Mario Brothers, me and my buddy Matt Smith for days. Just sit there and play until you beat the game. I just got a, like Megan for Christmas a couple years ago, bought me like a little Nintendo deal that's got like 30 original.

little Nintendo games on. I mean, before that, we had an Atari with one button playing pitfall. Like, I mean, you just... Rick Breaker? Yeah, I know it was like a sight bike. Yeah, that... It was awesome. Rad racer.

By 89, freaking PlayStation's all that route. I think I got my Nintendo in 87. I think that's pushing it a little bit. I got mine in like 87-ish, I think. But in my house, the dumbest thing I probably did was we used to let bottle rockets off in my bedroom. Oh, my God. Yeah, that's a good idea.

It was. It was really exciting. It was intense for a few seconds. I bet it was intense for more than a few seconds. So I'd light it off. Your curtains are on fire. Just light it. I'd jump in my sleeping bag and just cover up

because you didn't know where it was going to end up. I think it would bounce off the ceiling. What an idiot. Put yourself in a room and light a bottle rocket and see how, like... I used to go to... You just like, oh, shit. My dad used to light bottle rockets under and, the bathroom.

He owns a car dealership, and one of all of the, like, they'd all go and use the bathroom, and it had that break under the door, and they'd have the door locked, and my dad and all of his buddies would go and throw, like, the firecrackers up underneath the door and lied of him, and so that person's going to the bathroom, firecrackers on. Bottle rockets are going off. Speaking of Boswell, we were at the Western Town one time way back in the day out on the property here, and this idiot, this might be my wooden idiot now that I'm thinking about this. he's walking around with a string of firecrackers

hanging out of his back pocket with the fuse side up. What do you think happens? He got lit. You know who lit it? The guy that dropped his laptop off. Boswell running down the street in the front of the western town

like smacking his ass because it was going. My God. Bill Jr. literally lit his ass on fire. He literally lit a string of firecrackers in Boswell's pocket. That's awesome. Yes. You guys can go get a cash offer on your home today with our presenting a sponsor of Offerpad.

Just go to Offerpad.com. Don't play with fire. No, I don't do that either. All right, well, it is time once again for the favorite Xfinity X-Fi more than fast moment. Whether you're on or off the track, speed isn't the only thing that you need. So what were your guys' favorite more than fast moments? this week. TJ.

My more than fast moment it's going to go to the 22 cup car for hanging on with old tires up there. And, which I didn't think we could do. I don't know if you were watching. I didn't think we were sitting duck. I thought we were sitting ducks too.

And I was actually pretty surprised that we were able to, even after I thought we had a good gap one time and I'm like, okay, we might only get past by one or two more. And then them cars just kept coming. I was like, oh, man. We're going to get eight up here because Redick, Redick was in the same strategy as us, so was Alfredo, and they both got chewed up and put in the back, I think.

They both ended up near the back. Alfredo got wrecked. Yeah, but Reddick was just struggled so bad, and they were knocking him all around. Then I think he finally pitted for tires. But, yeah, I thought that was pretty impressive, not to be biased. My more than fast moments should be A.J. Amadinger for winning the race after the penalty. I mean, coming from literally dead last to first and 20 laps. But it's got to be Ross Chastain.

It's dirty, though. It's a dirty move. I've never seen anybody go that fast under caution and pass cars and get to lit with it. So, hats off to him. That's a more than fast moment for sure. That's definitely more than fast. Yeah. My more than fast moment is Josh Berry, again.

This guy's super sub. Out of nowhere. Couldn't get a ride before this year. Now everybody wants to stick him in his car. And another, we talked about how Jordan Anderson's been playing the playing the right cards here to get himself in good position and he does it again with Josh Barry this week. Get another top 10 career best for Josh.

So that's my more than the fast moment this week. Yeah, I got to say my heart broke for just on that topic, Brett Moffitt, because he was running like third when that final caution came out in that hour motor sports car and they ran out of gas. Yeah, two laps short. That's a lot. Ouch. Well, I mean, but would he have been running third if they took the time to put the gas in it? Yeah.

I'm just asking. No, they would have. They would have been fine. I guess that last time that they came down Pit Road they figured out that their gas can or whatever, it didn't it wasn't releasing. So they came down and they actually had the pit

pit timing right but they just didn't get enough gas in. They had to borrow someone else's gas can or something. We like a fast here on door bumper clear, but what we really like is being more than fast. Thankfully, there's always tons of action for our Xfinity X-5 more than fast moments. You know what else that's more than fast?

and don't forget to vote for your favorite. Thank you to Xfinity, a proud premier partner of NASCAR. It's time for Fastlane, the weekly segment, where we expose. the intelligence level of our panel of spotters by competing in a speed trivia contest. I'll be lucky to get one this week. Breits up first. Your last, TJ. You got a good shot here.

First one, where did Jeb Burton finish stage one on Saturday? Oh, I have no idea. Fourth. How many cautions did the Xfinity series race at Mid Ohio have? 11. What is TJ's favorite word? I don't even know. Flock.

Favorite word? word has got to be ir racing. What long distance race was named for a city in ancient Greece? Yeah, that one. Yep. How many continents are on Earth? Port of France.

52. I don't know. Brett could do so well if you put some other than. He got one right. Middohad seven cautions. T.J.'s favorite word is moist. Oh, moist. I forgot. That is a good word.

And you know what that word is? Did you hear what that is? Moist? If I had put my thoughts back to it into season one of Doorbomper Clear, I would have gotten that right. I actually forgot until you... T.J. used to wear Kristen out about that word.

She hated it. Well, every time it would rain, and be like, man, the track's moist. This track... I mean, Cota was moist. This could be. The Marathon was named after a city in ancient Greece, and there are seven continents on Earth, not 52.

Oh, man. All right, Freddy. Close. Great. Yeah. You said 52 continents. I'm trying to give you a layup there, and you

b-it-it-up. He did it up. He's being a f***. I don't know if you guys have picked up on this over the last two months or not, but I don't think he's putting it in max effort. These questions are too hard. The questions are too hard.

All right. Freddie, you're up. What track did Bubba Wallace earn his best cup career road course finish at? What's a career here? I would say Sonoma. Yeah, that was hard. Who finished last on Sunday?

Sunday. Come on, man. Who would have been? Oh, uh, Stenhouse. Yep. What's Brett's favorite word? Holla. What country lies partly in Europe and partly in Asia? Russia? I was going to say Russia. Is that right? What's the most points ever scored by one team in an MLB game? Ooh. Uh, 26. All right, you got two rights. Brett did say his favorite word. Turkey lies partly in Europe and Asia.

and 30 points most scored in M.M.L. League game by the Rangers in 2007. Turkey, European, or Asian? Like an Asian country? There was a 20-something score last week. It was the pirates and somebody else. Turkey's a continent. You didn't know that? One of the 52. Thank you. Turkey's a sandwich, isn't it? Good thing you don't teach anything. It's an Asian-European sandwich. Who do?

Yeah. You're Asian. T.J. Speaking of a sandwich yesterday, I heard, Doug, you're in the middle. You're the meat. You're the meat. What? I'm not sure if he had the button key, but I hope not. All right, DJ. He's a hack.

Oh, that's his favorite. Coleman turned at him some point. He's like, are you ever going to shut up today? He was hollering at everybody, every lap. All right, T.J. Where did Joey Ligono finish stage two on Sunday? Sixth. Didn't you win?

No. Oh, second. Too late. Third, second, third, something. How many lapsed MTJ lead on Sunday? Zero. What's Freddie's favorite word? Axe.

Probably the same as Brett's. I got to axe somebody. I'm glad everyone else hears that, too. What star is the closest to Earth? Star? Yeah. Oh, man. Do you know any star but one?

The North? How many stripes are on the American flag? How many stars are there? Didn't even, I mean, are we talking planets or stars here? I don't even know. Um, how many? Stripes are on the American flag. 36?

13. 13. Come on, man. Had it backwards. If you had it right, you would have tied Freddy, but Freddie wins. Legano finished P2 and stage two. To you would have gave me that one before, so you should just give me that one. Freddy's word, favorite word as same as Brett's just with I in at the end.

And the sun is closest to earth. That's a, consider a star. 13 stripes on the American flag. Congratulations, Freddie. Which star? You're on top of it. The sun. The sun.

The sun. The sun. I didn't know that. I don't know. That's a big star. Oh, wow. Oh, elementary education here, folks. On that note, time for What an Idiot. This week's What an Idiot Award goes to.

And then I like how it says Brett, T.J. and Freddie. But I know that's not. That's my vote every week. Hey. Brett, you get to What an Idiot first. Yeah, you go first. Yeah, I was to say even though. You seem excited.

My What Idiot. I thought this guy hit a home run. and my one idiot is for whatever crew member put equipment over the wall too soon on the two car because this guy was going to he hit the lottery and was going to come out of the race with the lead and I'm like, damn, I wasn't sure if you were going to pit or not, but I knew he wasn't if, you know, we weren't. We were. Yeah, but I'm just saying I wasn't sure if you were.

And I was like, oh, I said, we were trying to wave around because we were still left down that point. I left to call him like, you are the luckiest. And then all of a sudden they're rolling around and I'm like, we're screwed. We definitely can't wave because of two's in front. of us. He's going to stay out. Did you see what the penalty was, though? No, I didn't see it. So we saw this kind of, we saw, we look at like Daytona Roadcourse pit stops and we

see that tire get away, roll halfway through another box and nothing's called with that one. But they said he put the left front tire over the wall too soon. Like, when have you ever? We got a penalty last week that I never even heard of. And it was, uh, I've never heard of somebody putting the left front over the wall too soon. I forget what they called it. Like equipment interference or something like.

Yeah, I heard that. And it was because our tire rolled into the pit box in front of us, and the gas man stopped it with his leg. Like, or somebody grabbed it, and it almost touched the gas man, so we got a penalty because it almost hit the gas man. I mean, wouldn't you just rather have that be an uncontrolled tire or something? It's been called three times in the history of the sport. Yeah.

So have you ever seen somebody get trouble for putting the left front over the wall too soon? Like, I thought they haven't parked over the wall. I thought that the guy stands there with the tire over the wall waiting. I don't know. Maybe he wasn't an idiot, but I was just... Well, they didn't probably want him to mess up the race because he was going to be...

Yeah, with new tires. It was unfortunate for Brad. Yeah, because he was getting ready to run top four. Yeah, I was going to say he wasn't going to win because nobody was touching either one of them 200 cars. No. Fourth race in a row with a one-two finish. First time since the 50s that's happened.

It didn't matter. What strategy they did. Like, they would just... That's what TV kept saying. TV's like, nobody's ever won the first two stages ain't going on to win the race. And it's like, well, that's going to change today, but... He knifed through the pack so fast.

It was unreal. Like, we restarted. We were in the wrong lane, first of all. When we singled out, holy cow. Just gone. There was tire fall off, right? Well, for most of us. Yeah.

So the, you know, guys were on different strategies. There was, like, half the field that was on a different strategy. It would be... It mattered. It mattered. Ten laps before. everybody else. So the 18 was the first guy to come off pit road and he was hauling ass and you're, I wouldn't look at the lap times, those two, but you would assume he's making up ground

because the five's tires have fallen off and his tires are fresh. And everybody else like cycled out seconds behind the 18. And the five, I looked up and he was passing 18 like two laps after his pit stop. I was like, I guess it doesn't matter what your strategy is when you're cars a missile. And I think because of this conversation, my, what an idiot goes to whoever at Stuart Haas Racing didn't put this guy in a 14 car. Because, Let's be realistic. There were two companies with chances at Kyle Larson, and both companies don't really have a sponsor.

Right? There's no real sponsor on that five. Obviously, Hendrick has a lot of money. He's using his company. That 14 car doesn't have a lot of sponsorship either. Those two scenarios are identical. It's two billionaires up for bid. Gene Haas, Rick Hendrick to get this guy.

Did you see points, though, right now? Like, the three Haas cars that are not Kevin Harvick are like 26, 27th and 28th and regular season points. That's all the more reason they needed Kyle Larson. Kevin Harvick right now seems to be on an island. You look back a couple years ago, Kurt Bush is there. All four teams won a race, right? Clint Boyer's there, all four teams win a race.

Now, I don't think they got a lot of depth. And it's obvious. I think at all cost, if you had that to do over again, you would get Kyle Larson no matter what. If you can afford an F1 team, you can afford to get Kyle Larson. Let me ask you this, and I've seen somebody else had tweeted at me about that or something. Does Kyle Larson have a win right now if he's in the 14 car?

Yes. I disagree. I say, yeah, I don't think so either. I say yes. He's on a freaking mission. You don't win like nine races last year. Has the four gotten anywhere near a win? He was relevant.

He was relevant. I think he's ninth in points. He's not typical, Kevin. But I'm just saying, he's not even, I can't remember him contending for a win. I think Kyle Larson wins is something. I think Kyle Larson wins if you put him back in a 42 car. It's possible. I think he's an animal right now.

It's all hypothetical, obviously. It is, but I think he wins in a 42 car. I think that's a stretch, man. He wins a race. When you have, like, and without knocking the radiator out and that, when we're getting caught up in an accident, Byron is going to finish probably top five, too. So these, you know. He was really fast.

I wish he would have. So you got these guys, like, they're not, like, we got a lot of really good guys. but when you got an organization running, their equipment is... You have to wonder, right? I assume Hendrick bought horsepower from RCR or whatever they got, right? I assume they paid money for that.

It shows up at the mile and a half for sure. Eight and three are fast. But you got to wonder if Richard almost wishes, and maybe he did, I don't know. You almost wonder if he was like, hey, we'll give you this. We'll give you this horsepower. You give us the engineering side of your business.

And let's do a complete. Well, there might have been some of that, too. I heard some rumors this week. Both RCR cars are in a playoffs as up right now, right? Yes, I think so. I think Reddick's in. No, I don't. He's right on the cut line.

Reddick and Dillon are like side by side. And they're close. But I mean... I think he's in right now. But talking to some people this week, after the Coke 600, the rumor going around is 16 horsepower difference between what the Chevys have versus what everybody else has. a lot.

That's, that's, when you're running 500, when you're running low horsepower, that allows you to build your cars with down for, you know, you can, like we talked about in years past, whether you got to trim your car out for speed or put down, build down force into it. You can build it for down force. You can build it for down force, because you've already got the speed. So that's a lot. That's a lot. It shows.

Wow. It shows, man. You guys that are listening on the show, two to three horsepower is a lot. If Doug Gates finds two to three horsepower today, at Rousey's engines, he's going to be the happiest guy of America. So to go out and get 16 overnight is unreal. Reddick and Dylan are both in playoffs right now, the last two spots. Yeah, he was close.

Plus 60 over DeBandetto. But listen, we haven't seen cars be this strong as an organization in a while. Probably Roush. Like, you go back to when Rouse was really, really good for so long. As an organization, yeah. I don't know where you've seen all four cars. And I'm nothing against, but I think it's easy. easier in this package. I do. I think when you just hold a wide open back then, back then, man,

you were big horsepower, big motors, you know, and you had to drive. The things were sideways all the time. And those guys, like, the guys they had, the drivers were all, they had, who they had, Biffle, Matt. Mark Martin. Yeah. Carl Edwards. Like, like, drivers, like, real, like, not that they're not now, but, like, those really, really solid drivers. And, man, it's, they, they, they, you could take anybody's going to look like AJ can get one of these cars and look like he's I mean I feel like AJ could run top five in these cars like no matter these guys are all really talented race car drivers but when you got your four guys basically up front every single week they've just they've they've done their homework they've done they figured something out and they're benefiting so

weird time for the all-star race isn't it like don't you feel like this is a weird I feel like it's already passed I'm at me too it's a weird it's a weird film I did hear something that's gonna you know I heard you might not like it, Freddie, but Rick Ware actually put their Texas cars. I heard this. They put their Texas cars on the hauler. And it's for Sonoma. And they're not coming back.

Yeah. So because we didn't practice in Sonoma, so you only needed one car. So they put their All-Star car on there and they're just letting them go. At least that, I mean, I saw some guys this week crazy, drove out to California for. Who's he spot for this year? He's spotting for Alfredo. Who was having a solid run? Uh, he was.

I mean, he did the same thing. He stayed out on that thing. But he was making it work. I didn't agree with his, uh, he tweeted something. Oh, yeah. Out here making a statement. I hope everyone saw or realized or whatever I saw that too. He's made a lot of statements in last year.

I've seen that wasn't the first one. But talk about, I mean, crazy said 40 hours, two drivers, 40 hours out there. So, and then I've seen crops who joined each backup driver for the 43. And the aerodynamics special. He is an aerodynamic specialist. Go-cart driving extraordinaire. He said 45 hours for them. So you're talking 80 to 90 hours.

So Alfredo's team beat the petty team. No, no. I think crazy drives for RCR or helps RCR. He's five hours faster than the petty team. Yeah, hauling ass. I told them shepherds are good. 16 horse power, probably. But it's like, that's 90 hours of traveling for 90 laps.

That hurts. especially when Atlanta's three hours away Charlotte's 30 minutes away for everybody Bristol is what T.J, three hours last year when we went up there and ran the All-Star race there. It depends on if you wear the brakes out through the mountain or not. Eddie Gossage's last race at Texas Motor Speedway. He said fans stick around, stay in your seats after the race.

There's going to be something special to see. I don't know if I don't know what that means. Yeah, y'all let me know because I will not be there. So you're going to be like a blimp drop of money or something. I might stay. Yeah. Yeah. I'm going down Thursday.

We've got a huge event for Neutronack Solutions Friday night and Saturday at the racetrack with some of our customers there. So looking forward to that. I'm looking forward to the Xfinity race. I think they'll put on them. It's my first event. It's my new job title. Just tell Bruce whatever he did to Jeb's Radio to do it again this week. It'll be your favorite Xfinity race of the year.

Oh, I've been tired of him telling him he can't hear me all years. That'd be great if I couldn't hear him. When you check your radio, his kid, go, er. As soon as he says anything, no matter if I can hear him and I'd be like, what is that noise? Is that jab? Yeah. He'll be freaking out. Just check your eyes.

Bruce, if you can hear me, click once. All right. On brand here with the All-Star race. Did TJ pick his idiot? I don't know. You guys got off on a tangent. My idea's going to go to anyone who tweets me that says Kyle Larson needs to figure their package out because those cars, anybody, Freddie could figure. his package out.

Freddy could have fit the seat, TJ. Okay, well, I always figured my package. If we took the seat out, just let Freddie sit on the floorboard of the race car. We got to get a fucking bathtub for him to sit in. That's fine. That is fine. Listen, we could even put the grill on the passenger side, and Freddie's still going to win a race in this car.

I saw, I think Wyatt Alexander was one of them that tweeted at you. Did he? I just saw. I've seen it. You made this bed. Yeah. Well, it wasn't because it was because of the package. TJ's king of beating a joke into the ground.

And then now he's mad that people are running the same. No, I'm saying. They're taking it. It's going to take him a while to figure this package out. They're taking it out of context. Freddie and I look at each other like, what the fuck is he talking about? But you can't tell me you didn't see these cars being as strong as they were, as they are now. There's no way anybody saw this coming like that.

As dominant as they are. I didn't think that they'd be this dominant, but I was pretty confident that Carl Larsman was going to figure this out pretty quick. When I said on this show at the end of last year, there is one guy that I would consider coming back to spot full time for. It was Kyle Larson because I knew this was going to happen. I knew he was going to go out and kick everybody's ass and set the world on fire. He was the only guy that I was willing to lace up my shoes for every week to go do it for one year. I'd only done it for a year because I truly think there's a bigger plan and play there.

I'm happy Tyler Mye got the job, and I'm happy to see him when it races because I honestly think this guy's like Kyle Bush. It doesn't matter who spots for him. If he's in a fast car, he's going to kick your ass. That's what he's doing. He gets in anything and just fast. I mean, we said on the show two years ago, he was the show. This guy is the most fun guy to watch right now. But now that he gets the lead so fast, he's stinking up the races. So when I said that, that's what I didn't expect them to be able to drive from the top to the bottom in a mile and a half corners like they can do. And if you're that racing, man, you know what it's like back there from 8th to 16th.

Like it's, you get back there, man. It's hard to get out of when you're, but if your cars, I mean, obviously you put it, you give Kyle Larson. I truly think if Bill France was still alive, he would call this guy into a meeting and say, stop stinking up my shows. Yeah. I mean, it's, he might. Those conversations happened. I looked up at one time. I think Tyler Green was there next to me, and I look up,

but everybody's in a pack. And I'm like, where was nine's leading? I go, oh, no, never mind. There's the five, 45 car lengths out front. He's down at the Golden Gate Bridge. He's got such a big lead. I was like, does he got a pit again? They're like, no, I'm like, whoa, what?

How? Like, I haven't even made my stop yet. And I'm running like third. And here he is. And I'm like, wait, he's still got a stop again, right? No. No, no, he's good. Okay.

Well, so that's that. Remember, like, when you used to race roadcourts backwards? Because the track position, it didn't matter. You guys, please keep tweeting T.J. Oh, boy. Non-stop. Every day, all day, every day. All right.

Well, now we're going to go ahead and make our picks. With Sonoma. TJ won with Blaney. In the pack we've, in the past, we've done All-Star. You can just pick anyone you want. Oh, okay. Brett was second. I think we have counted, but you can decide.

Yes, it counts. Okay. Fred is leading. You better. Brett, you get to pick first. You better make a pick. I don't think you should count. My guy was doing okay.

He was actually going to beat Ryan Blaney. He got wrecked on the last lap by Daniel Swares. I don't know if there was a piss in my trailer race. Michael McDowell, man, you were doing a good job for me. But I'm going with the guy that I've been talking about for an hour and a half, Kyle Larson. Wow, that's a lot of... It's a mile and a half, so he has to figure out the package. It's a one lane mile and a half, Jason, with a lawnmower motor.

Yeah, and he's, yeah, got a V-12 and the damn thing. I'll take the only guy that has... has been able to run anywhere near the Henser cars. Chase. Kyle. Kyle, Carl, Arson. Kyle Busch. You know, and screw it.

I'm going to go with, don't pick yourself because you don't want to wreck. I looked up one this week. I said, yep, TJ's got Blaney, and he knocks the left front fender off at like lap 15. I was so mad. Man, I got to heck with it. I'll just go with Reddick.

Reddick is. Thanks, Sherry for the bourbon. Thanks Carlos for the two new grills. Pit boss is coming your way. Yeah, I can't wait to see. What's the first thing you're going to cook, Freddie? A rack. Another rack.

A butt. A butt. A rack. You got a nice butt. I do. I love your butt. I don't ever say that again. The way and that rub you put on it, man.

Delicious. The way you love the way I rub my butt. Yeah. I'm going back to bed. I also like your breasts when you cook those breasts. They're not bad either. What about my thumb? thighs. I don't like your thighs. I'm not a thigh guy.

Chicken leg. Hannah, thanks for subbing. Thanks for being here on time. Yeah. Thanks for having notes to, to jump and sleep the conversation. She's down here hanging out. She's like staring contests with doing her most of the show here. You have homework now that. I got to listen to what? You got to listen to Neil Young the whole way home. We're signing off. Thank y'all. We're out. We'll be back after the All-Star. Word. Check out Dirty Mo Media on YouTube, Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram. Dirty Mo.
