- 0:03Dang, breaking news in the NASCAR garage area.
- 0:10Like I always say, NASCAR is the gift that just keeps giving.
- 0:17You know, I should have waited a little longer on Wednesday
- 0:21morning with coffee with Kenny. If I'd have waited till
- 0:23Wednesday night, I'd have had the big juicy news.
- 0:28All right, here we go. As reported by Bob Pockrass.
- 0:33That's who I'm choosing because Bob's my buddy and all the
- 0:38NASCAR media, the stories everywhere.
- 0:41But let me debull for you. So we go to Daytona for the
- 0:47Daytona 500 and you got Austin Cindrick and Chase Briscoe on
- 0:52the front row. So Chase Briscoe front row pole
- 0:57on the pole, QuickTime on his outside Austin Syndrich, right?
- 1:02So, you know, it's pretty incredible story just because
- 1:08two guys that are good, but you know, looking to be better,
- 1:12right? Let's just put it this way,
- 1:14Chase Briscoe, Austin Syndrich, They are not Kyle Larson.
- 1:20It's a feel good story, right? They run this Daytona 500.
- 1:25Austin Syndrich, he, he's leading, he runs good.
- 1:29And just like everybody says, we listen to Denny Hamlin on
- 1:35actions detrimental. Denny says, listen, I like
- 1:39drafting with Austin Sendrick because he's got the speedways
- 1:43figured out. Austin Sendrick is mentally
- 1:46smart, right? So he knows how to draft.
- 1:48So Austin's sitting there, he's leading the sink.
- 1:52Where's Chase Briscoe or pole sitter?
- 1:55Well, Chase shows up later, you know, last couple laps he had a
- 2:00wreck. But Chase Briscoe's car, it's
- 2:02really fast. So Chase Briscoe gets himself a
- 2:06top five. Herman, where you going with all
- 2:09this? Painting the story.
- 2:12Painting the story for you, Right.
- 2:14So the Daytona 500 is over and all the media says all clear,
- 2:22all good. You know, William Byron, your
- 2:25winner. Well, what they didn't tell us,
- 2:28and this is very important, what they didn't tell us was they
- 2:32took Austin Cindrick's car and Chase Briscoe's car back to the
- 2:39Research and Development center in NASCAR after the Daytona 500.
- 2:45We didn't know this. Well, why did they take those
- 2:50cars back to the Research and Development Center?
- 2:54Well, because they sat on the front row of the Daytona 500, as
- 2:57reported by my dear friend Bob Popgrass.
- 3:01Now, here's where the story gets juicy, right?
- 3:07You always hear of this one source part.
- 3:10In other words, if you're going to get this part, you can only
- 3:12get it from here. They call it a single source
- 3:16part. Single source means you can only
- 3:19get it from here. And that's it.
- 3:21They're saying that the area that Chase Briscoe's spoiler
- 3:25bolted to had been messed with. No, no, I don't want to hear
- 3:32everybody. I'm telling you what Bob
- 3:34Procrast's article said. So you, you, you say all you
- 3:39want to say, all I'm doing. Remember, I'm just telling you
- 3:42what's happening and I'm de bolting it all for you.
- 3:45I don't get into you and all that, right?
- 3:48I don't do all that you guys do that.
- 3:51I'm just telling you that they set on the front row, they were
- 3:56quick. They showed up at the end of the
- 3:58race. But why did they take the cars
- 4:01back to the Research and Development Center 'cause they
- 4:04'cause they were on the front row?
- 4:06That's it. They were on the front row.
- 4:08This is way for NASCAR to keep an eye.
- 4:11Listen, they've been doing it for years.
- 4:13They do it with motors, right? They've been doing it with
- 4:16motors. Hell, they took my brother
- 4:17Rusty's motor out there at Sears Point.
- 4:21What 96 something whatever was they took Rusty's motor at Sears
- 4:28Point. He sat on like his 10th pole,
- 4:31right? And they were getting tired of
- 4:33Rusty and Team Penske setting QuickTime 10 poles that year.
- 4:38They NASCAR said pull the motor out, made him pull the motor out
- 4:42and made him take it apart on the asphalt in front of all
- 4:46their competitors. And what they found out that
- 4:49Rusty wasn't cheating at all, but Penske had made some very
- 4:52light rotating rods and Pistons and they were able to turn about
- 4:5610,000 RPMS when everybody else is sitting there, you know,
- 5:02scratching her head to turn 8000 RPMS.
- 5:05So NASCAR's been doing this for a long time.
- 5:10I mean, they're making it to where their cars are almost tied
- 5:12now. We've been doing this to keep an
- 5:15eye on the competition and see what's going on.
- 5:19So they take those cars back. You know what's funny is
- 5:24although they inspected William Byron's car, didn't go back to
- 5:29the research development team. Who knows?
- 5:32I don't know. All I know is this is big.
- 5:35So here we are 5 minutes into this deal.
- 5:38I debulged it all for you. I tell you why they do it now
- 5:41you respond right here. But here's the breaking news in
- 5:45the garage area right here. I want to get into what was
- 5:51going on at Joe Gibbs Racing. I want to go inside the shop.
- 5:56I want to go. OK, crew chief, what made you do
- 6:01this? And I'm sure they they got a
- 6:03reason. They're competitors.
- 6:06I don't blame nobody on cheating.
- 6:08I think I think cheating is awesome because it makes for
- 6:11good storylines. Did you hear what?
- 6:13That song of a dead hey, that ain't nothing though.
- 6:18Listen, all the guys in the past, they will agree with me.
- 6:22You go back in the 90s and early 2000s, anybody that was upfront
- 6:28at Daytona, they was cheating their asses off.
- 6:30They cheat those deck lids up. They cheat them air cleaners in
- 6:35hell even even Stern Marlin and all what was that Runt Runt?
- 6:40He was a motor builder. Hell, they were sucking air
- 6:42through the the you know, so you got the valve or you got the the
- 6:46valve covers, right? Well, you put the valve cover
- 6:49on, you can put bolts in, but they had studs.
- 6:52They were sucking air through the studs.
- 6:54And the way they were getting through tech inspection is they
- 6:57were, they were melting candle wax in the studs.
- 7:02But when when they get on the racetrack, the motor get hot and
- 7:06the candle wax would melt and then you know, you had the you
- 7:10had the restrictor plate, right? Well, only so much air would go
- 7:13through the restriction plate. Well, how are we going to get
- 7:16more air inside the motor? Well, once that candle wax
- 7:20inside those valve cover studs that would melt.
- 7:24Now you're sucking air through those studs.
- 7:28So now you got way more air and Sterling and Jimmy Spencer and
- 7:33all the hell. I was cheating and I ass off.
- 7:35Spencer would tell me he said Herman when who was it?
- 7:40It was Ernie, somebody in the Texaco Havlin car.
- 7:45Remember that race, Jimmy Spencer in the Winston or the
- 7:49Camel car and Jimmy Spencer was side by side with the Texaco
- 7:55Havlin car. I think it was for the 4th of
- 7:57July race. Spence told me.
- 7:59I knew he was cheating, so I knew they was cheating.
- 8:02So cheating, been going on a long time.
- 8:05It's good stuff. It's juicy.
- 8:06And as far as you go, you shouldn't cheat.
- 8:11People come on you. You're not a competitor.
- 8:15You're not. Hey, Rodger, Penske doesn't
- 8:17allow cheating, but they've been caught cheating because, you
- 8:21know, their crew chiefs have decided to do something.
- 8:24You know, this or that. Now, nobody's angels.
- 8:27So the bottom line is this $100,000 fine for the team or
- 8:34whoever, Another $100,000 fine for the crew chief.
- 8:38That's $200,000 and the crew chief is suspended for four
- 8:42weeks. I'm sure they're going to appeal
- 8:46it because you know the way that goes, they're going to appeal
- 8:49it. But still, they announced it.
- 8:52So the damage is done. But man, that that takes Chase
- 8:57Briscoe from top ten in the points down to like last.
- 9:04Chase Briscoe is going to have to win a race to dig out of this
- 9:08one. 100 point penalty for everything.
- 9:12Car owner and driver. So bad deal.
- 9:16All right, everybody, listen. I think I broke it down for you.
- 9:19Respond right here. Tell me why you're so much
- 9:21smarter than me and you're better than everybody.
- 9:25Hey, Herman, what are you doing? Can't you see I'm kicking my
- 9:29ass? I got to get you before you get
- 9:32me because I know you going to respond now.
- 9:34You know everything, all right? I told you everything.
- 9:38All right, everybody, till the next time.
