• 1:13
  I think I broke into the Kenny Wallace world yesterday.
• 1:18
  Somebody. I'm going to continue to break
• 1:20
  in every day and I'm seeing you. I see you over there.
• 1:23
  They I see you. You didn't pay attention.
• 1:25
  You. Know what they like they liked
• 1:26
  when you said is that is that your people?
• 1:29
  I read, I read some of the comments my my ass hurt.
• 1:34
  Yeah. My my ass hurt from that ride
• 1:39
  and I got no ass at all. So motorcycle, my battery was
• 1:43
  dead when we went to start so I had to get on a different
• 1:45
  motorcycle on first leg. I asked her so bad on that one.
• 1:50
  That was an odd when I got on mine.
• 1:53
  See it just goes to show it was like it was when you when you
• 1:58
  buy a Harley, make sure the seat fits you.
• 2:01
  Yeah, everything. Rick Allen, everybody windshield
• 2:05
  one one of the greats. You know, people pay money to
• 2:08
  have a voice like that. That voice.
• 2:16
  Yes, you can because you're you're a great voice over, but
• 2:19
  you're great at everything you do.
• 2:20
  OK, so first. Let's did you break it?
• 2:25
  Down. Already first.
• 2:26
  Day no Go ahead. How do you feel about?
• 2:29
  It leave Sonoma before the sun comes up.
• 2:34
  Oh, that was the big thing. It's the little things.
• 2:36
  Everybody, we all were calling it.
• 2:39
  Well, my group was calling, everybody was calling Eli.
• 2:44
  And they said it's Eli. And I'm like, well, then spell
• 2:46
  it right. That's right.
• 2:50
  Oh, look here, OP. Hey, no lie, everybody where we
• 2:59
  stop, they go it'd be lunchtime. They say, is this coffee
• 3:02
  McKinney? OK, so my break now I'm going to
• 3:06
  say one thing and then you say something.
• 3:08
  I was I thought it was awesome. Well, Sonoma was fun, but we we
• 3:12
  raced our lives. I I liked coming over the hill
• 3:15
  all the time and seeing and you teach me is a is a basin and
• 3:21
  you're involved in this too, but is a basin where it's salt.
• 3:24
  I think so. I think it is.
• 3:26
  Because I we come over to Hill and then they're just be landed.
• 3:29
  They didn't call it a basin. Right.
• 3:31
  I think that's what it is. I mean, that's what the salt
• 3:33
  flats are. I told Kim I said this is like
• 3:36
  this, like the Bonneville Salt Flats Service 1 area was.
• 3:40
  That was cool. It was.
• 3:42
  And then I thought to myself, are we around Area 51?
• 3:46
  So. Did you see the naval?
• 3:48
  Yes, they were flying. That was really cool.
• 3:50
  So about I, I can't remember exactly, probably 8 years ago,
• 3:54
  maybe 10 years ago, we were on that very road and we were
• 3:58
  riding along just minding our own business.
• 4:00
  And somebody said, I think they said it like everybody look in
• 4:04
  the mirror, look in the mirror. And so we looked in our mirror.
• 4:07
  There was a jet. Flying at a. 100 feet who?
• 4:13
  Right on the top of I was like, come on, do that again this year
• 4:16
  please. Do that again, Rick.
• 4:17
  Stay right there. I want to break down to subjects
• 4:19
  this morning. Carson Ozavar wins the truck
• 4:22
  race. He's on a roll.
• 4:23
  And then very sad that I see Alex Zanardi has pass place.
• 4:27
  So stay right there. I'm going to get over next to
• 4:29
  him. The Queen say morning.
• 4:34
  Kim, wait A. Minute I So while we're talking,
• 4:39
  I'm thinking, my God, he's right in front of me.
• 4:42
  We might as well break it down. OK, so this kid, Carson Hosovar,
• 4:46
  is on a roll. How about the big win he has and
• 4:50
  then the celebration? Yeah.
• 4:52
  I mean the burnout was was probably a 10.
• 4:55
  Plus, OK, if everybody's honest, everybody was like at Talladega
• 5:00
  when Carson Hosovar, I think time stood still for a minute.
• 5:05
  Everybody's like, what's he doing?
• 5:06
  I mean, were you like that? I was, I was thinking,
• 5:10
  especially when he turned into the wall, I was thinking, don't
• 5:12
  fall out. Don't hit.
• 5:14
  Like don't hit him so hard that it knocks you out of the.
• 5:17
  Car then he hit the wall when I didn't expect him to.
• 5:20
  He makes it all the way down to Victory Lane and does the burn
• 5:23
  and the whole front end flex like he knocked it off I mean.
• 5:26
  That's that's just so that you don't get the tech right.
• 5:29
  Oh, oh, hey, hey, that that air the the main photographer, look
• 5:36
  at that. This is the they put it all
• 5:38
  together. OK, look, this is good stuff,
• 5:41
  right? Because that exact area, 50 feet
• 5:44
  this way or that way, OK, That's where Jimmy Johnson supposedly
• 5:50
  back in the early 1800s knocked the ass off his car off.
• 5:54
  And it's true. She says if were you in this
• 5:56
  thing? Yeah, well, you know, Kenny,
• 6:00
  that's been the sport since the beginning.
• 6:03
  The very beginning. So, but I, I, by the way, I'm
• 6:07
  not going to say anything about there was no cheating involved.
• 6:10
  That was great. OK, but, but listen, the
• 6:12
  hermanator always goes there for fun, brother, Rusty says.
• 6:15
  Herman, you get away with so much shit because you just poke,
• 6:20
  he says. Rusty says Herman, you never
• 6:22
  draw blood, but the knife's always right there.
• 6:25
  So 1 great thing about going to Darlington is I'm sure you've
• 6:29
  been everywhere. But when you go to Darlington,
• 6:33
  you go to the old museum and all the cheater parts are in there.
• 6:37
  We've been cheating since early 1800s so.
• 6:40
  You remember? Well, I should never say you
• 6:42
  remember, but I'm going to say this to.
• 6:44
  Your people. So your people will.
• 6:48
  Maybe they don't know this or not, but but NASCAR used to take
• 6:52
  a part that the part that would fail and they would set that out
• 6:56
  on a a table. Let this be a.
• 6:57
  Lesson so that the next week. The cheater part.
• 7:00
  The cheater part would sit out on the table and that way
• 7:03
  everybody saw it. So everybody's like.
• 7:06
  Oh OK, let let this be a lesson. It's pretty good idea.
• 7:09
  Let's all figure that out. Yeah.
• 7:11
  So anyway, I think the bottom line is, is Carson host of
• 7:16
  Arzano Roll? He wins the truck race last
• 7:18
  night in Texas, so he wins the Cup race at Talladega.
• 7:23
  And everybody's like, you know, and it's great.
• 7:26
  It's hey by the way, I want to clear something up.
• 7:28
  Talent you've got a lot of. Talent, lots of talent.
• 7:31
  And you know what's funny is sometimes like a Kyle Larson,
• 7:35
  they just arrive and they're they're perfect.
• 7:38
  But we saw Jeff Gordon do a lot of wrecking early and then
• 7:41
  figure it out. And it seems like that's what
• 7:43
  Carson Hosenbar is doing. He did a lot of recognizing.
• 7:46
  Seems like he's figured it out and.
• 7:48
  You got to remember to Carson, the equipment he started in
• 7:51
  obviously a lot different. Yeah, Jeff Gordon started in
• 7:54
  Hendrick. Right.
• 7:56
  I mean, yeah, Bill Davis to Hendrick.
• 7:59
  I mean, it's a it's pretty impressive run.
• 8:02
  But but that that is a good study on talent.
• 8:06
  Jeff Gordon always said he just come out lately and said, you
• 8:09
  know, I was. I could never do like Mark Mark,
• 8:12
  Mark Martin could go on the track, bust a lap.
• 8:14
  First lap out. Yeah, and I don't know if you
• 8:17
  watch that interview, but Jeff Gordon said, oh, I think it was
• 8:19
  on Stacking Pennies. Jeff said just give me some time
• 8:24
  and I can be as fast as anybody, but I can't do it right away.
• 8:28
  That's what I always appreciated about you guys.
• 8:30
  You would go out there and bust your ass on a lap and I think.
• 8:36
  What? What are they thinking?
• 8:38
  Like you had so much trust in the people who put your cars
• 8:43
  together and the setup that there was in there that you took
• 8:46
  that thing to the absolute limit on the first lap out.
• 8:50
  And then it's like, well, you know, that's got all the good
• 8:52
  out of the tires. So and and it got more and more
• 8:55
  like that. And now here we are.
• 8:57
  In what year is it? Kim, 26?
• 8:59
  Yeah. And at Talladega, they had zero
• 9:03
  practice and the cars lined up. Make sure people remember who I
• 9:08
  am. I've been gone.
• 9:09
  I think I said I introduced you, didn't I?
• 9:13
  But anyway, nowadays at Talladega, they've been doing it
• 9:15
  everywhere, Rain all week long. They line up by points and they
• 9:18
  go green flag, zero practice. You're right.
• 9:22
  These guys can put an automobile underneath.
• 9:24
  Yeah. OK.
• 9:26
  We're too long right now. I just.
• 9:29
  I just want to say no. You're going to say Alex.
• 9:33
  Alex Cenardi. Listen, all my prayers, I'm
• 9:37
  sure, Rick, but I just say something about Alex Cenardi.
• 9:41
  I didn't know, Alex. Well, neither did I but he.
• 9:44
  I mean as far as the sport. He was a he was a winner.
• 9:48
  And then he had a horrible wreck and lost both of his legs and
• 9:51
  never gave up, right. And now I.
• 9:54
  Met him. Oh, you did?
• 9:56
  I've never met him. I've.
• 9:57
  Met him, I've met him. I'm trying to remember exactly
• 10:00
  where we were that oh it was at a insurance.
• 10:03
  But I mean, just a shout out and to his whole family, our
• 10:06
  prayers. There's a guy that instilled
• 10:09
  Never give up. Exactly, Yeah.
• 10:11
  Winning races, Rick, with no legs.
• 10:15
  Yeah. All right, Say goodbye
• 10:17
  everybody. Hey, pray for us.
• 10:21
  That's. Right in front of us today.
• 10:22
  And may the Lord be with you.
