My Really Bad Wreck In Plymouth, Indiana & Kyle Busch Tames Dover | Coffee With Kenny · Kenny Wallace Media

• 0:01
  Happy Saturday morning everybody.
• 0:06
  I'm at the same hotel except this time I'm on the 1st floor.
• 0:13
  Still got my clothes laid out but I got I got my shade shut.
• 0:19
  I don't want nobody looking in my room.
• 0:22
  Yesterday I was on the third floor When I left this hotel
• 0:27
  room yesterday on Friday I thought I'd better get a room
• 0:31
  here. So hour and a half drive to
• 0:34
  Plymouth IN. Got done racing on Friday night,
• 0:37
  drove an hour and a half down and stayed here.
• 0:41
  I stopped at the front desk and I said could I get a room for
• 0:45
  Friday night? He goes, yes, Mr. Wallace,
• 0:48
  However, it's not going to be $130.00 a night.
• 0:53
  I said no problem. I understand the Indianapolis
• 0:56
  500 this year because I'm about 30 miles from the Indianapolis
• 1:01
  Motor Speedway. Your room is $130.00 normal, but
• 1:07
  because qualifying weekend, what do you think this room, how much
• 1:13
  it raised $290.00. My room is $160 more because of
• 1:25
  qualifying tomorrow. Makes me think about the people
• 1:33
  saying the economy gas is high. I'm like, Oh yeah, there's more.
• 1:40
  Whenever hotel rooms can capitalize on an event being in
• 1:44
  town, they going to do that? I had no problem because I
• 1:49
  understood. But uh, yeah, From 1:30 to 290,
• 1:54
  all is good. Just giving you information.
• 1:58
  You know, we would blame NASCAR on everything.
• 2:01
  I can't afford to go to a NASCAR race.
• 2:04
  Well, it's not NASCAR. It's the people around town
• 2:08
  taking advantage of us. Dummies.
• 2:12
  OK, so last night I had a really bad wreck and I'll explain to
• 2:20
  you everything. I'm not going to be long winded.
• 2:23
  We going to talk about Kyle Busch winning his 69th truck
• 2:28
  race or as Kyle said in his Victory Lane interview, 69.
• 2:35
  He said, however, Samantha Bush is out West vacationing.
• 2:43
  Get it? But that.
• 2:44
  But that was Kyle. That ain't me.
• 2:46
  I loved it. I laughed actually.
• 2:48
  I retweeted it on X. So last night in Plymouth, IN, I
• 2:55
  had a wonderful time. I want to thank all the fans,
• 2:59
  everybody. I want to thank Kevin Sauer, my
• 3:02
  and the crew chief. My car was fantastic.
• 3:06
  The crowd was awesome. Good crowd, 75 lap race and I'm
• 3:14
  running like 4th and we got 6 laps to go.
• 3:19
  That's what hurt. 6 laps to go. I just, you know, I had this
• 3:24
  horrible push. My car started pushing really
• 3:27
  bad. So I was running the bottom and
• 3:32
  come up off the corner and all of a sudden, man, I mean, I
• 3:36
  didn't think you could wreck that bad at Plymouth.
• 3:38
  I just didn't think it was that possible.
• 3:41
  Before I know it, I'm I'm turning towards the wall and I
• 3:45
  hit that wall a ton. A little sore here this morning.
• 3:50
  The belts got me, but safety did his job and I mean all hell
• 3:56
  broke loose. I felt horrible.
• 4:00
  I was embarrassed. 6 laps to go and a guy comes flipping over
• 4:07
  me. I get out of my race car.
• 4:08
  I look around me, there's five of us wrecked.
• 4:12
  I go over to the guy that flipped.
• 4:13
  I'm worried about him. He gets out, he's got oil all
• 4:17
  over him. This poor man, young kid.
• 4:20
  I looked at him, he looked at me.
• 4:23
  He was he was panicking because he couldn't get out of his car.
• 4:27
  Something about the Hans device. So that's an issue getting out
• 4:32
  of some of these tight cockpits. Anyway, everything calmed down
• 4:36
  and as you all already watched the video, I got back to the
• 4:41
  pits and there must have been when I started the video, there
• 4:46
  must have been almost 100 people around my car.
• 4:51
  And I looked at all them people and they were wanting me to say
• 4:54
  something. And I thought, you know, I've
• 4:56
  seen Cletus do this before. You can't do you, you, you can't
• 5:01
  get your pickup truck and leave. You can't avoid the situation.
• 5:04
  So I'm a man and I I said, OK, everybody gather around.
• 5:08
  I said ask me everything you want to ask me.
• 5:12
  Well, they just stared at me. I said OK, turn your phones on.
• 5:15
  So there's more video out there. So I told everybody, I said what
• 5:19
  happened. I said I don't know how I got
• 5:24
  turned into the wall, but from what the fans tell me, I guess I
• 5:28
  got pushed from the rear like on the right rear corner.
• 5:33
  Now from what the fans tell me, I don't know.
• 5:37
  The fans tell me that I got pushed from behind like in the
• 5:44
  right rear corner. So obviously it was my fault
• 5:47
  because I was slow at short track racing.
• 5:55
  So anyway, that's what happened. Hell of a wreck.
• 6:00
  I feel so bad about it. 6 laps to go, running 4th, OK, that's
• 6:06
  that. We're not going to go.
• 6:08
  We're not going to blame anybody because that's one one thing
• 6:12
  Schrader taught me. Everything's my fault, Dick,
• 6:16
  Trickle said. Everything's 50% your fault
• 6:18
  because you went on the racetrack.
• 6:21
  I said. But Dick, I got hit in the ass.
• 6:24
  What? You wouldn't have been hit in
• 6:26
  the ass if you didn't go on the racetrack.
• 6:32
  OK, changing subjects, drink a coffee.
• 6:43
  Kyle Busch has been roughed up lately.
• 6:47
  There's been a handful of people that said Kyle Busch just
• 6:52
  doesn't understand this new Next Gen. car.
• 6:56
  He's having an issue learning how to drive it.
• 7:00
  OK, I'm listening. Keep going.
• 7:04
  In the meanwhile, Cow Bush has won 100 O'Reilly Auto Parts
• 7:11
  races and in Dover yesterday on Friday won his 69th truck race.
• 7:18
  Now I went one through 12. If you take 100 O'Reilly wins 69
• 7:28
  truck races. That is 169 of the highest level
• 7:36
  wins in racing O'Reilly and trucks are no joke.
• 7:44
  I'm still not buying that Kyle doesn't know how to drive the
• 7:48
  next Gen. car. I'm I'm I'm watching and here's
• 7:51
  why I judge that because look at his teammate look look at Austin
• 7:56
  Dillon. How's Austin Dillon doing in the
• 7:59
  next Gen. car? So you got to give it to Kyle
• 8:07
  Busch. Plus, he made a funny joke in
• 8:09
  victory in the media room. They said, Kyle, do you have a
• 8:13
  goal in the Truck Series? This is your 69th win.
• 8:18
  Kyle goes 69. My wife's on vacation.
• 8:24
  Everybody starts laughing. That's what we need in the
• 8:27
  sport. I want to thank Kyle Busch for
• 8:29
  saying that. Funny as hell.
• 8:31
  Good stuff. OK here Waymo says it fixed
• 8:38
  neighbor routing. These self driving cars, these
• 8:41
  self driving cars are all messed up.
• 8:45
  These vehicles swarmed the Atlanta cul-de-sac.
• 8:47
  They couldn't get turned around. They're like 20 of them. 2020 of
• 8:53
  these self driving vehicles in a cul-de-sac.
• 8:59
  Empty Waymo vehicles swarm Atlanta cul-de-sac.
• 9:03
  Look at that, right? Yet self driving vehicles still
• 9:10
  got still got a little work to do.
• 9:13
  They'll get it. But that's funny.
• 9:15
  About 60 of self driving cars go down into this subdivision and
• 9:20
  they get they get caught in a cul-de-sac.
• 9:22
  I had to show you that's comedy. OK.
• 9:28
  I saw something at Dover that I really like.
• 9:31
  It was good entertainment. What while Kyle Busch was
• 9:35
  dominating and gone Dodge Ram. They've got what they call a
• 9:40
  superstar truck. This truck is meant for
• 9:43
  superstars to run it and bring a little spice to the series, to
• 9:47
  NASCAR. It's not to be taken as, oh, you
• 9:51
  know, not not that. So Clint Boyer goes and drives,
• 9:57
  and Kevin Harvick is his crew chief.
• 10:01
  Harvick is funny. He says Fox has got him on TV.
• 10:05
  And Harvard goes OK, OK, Clint boy, we're going to need you to
• 10:10
  catch the car in front of you. It's just funny. close it up.
• 10:15
  Can you catch the car in front of you?
• 10:18
  I like that. I want to thank everybody at Ram
• 10:23
  for doing that. They got several trucks out
• 10:25
  there. Corey Lejoy run 8th.
• 10:27
  That's hard to do, that's hard to run 8.
• 10:29
  Those trucks are fast, they're unique.
• 10:32
  A lot of when I say unique, a lot of gas pedal, you're running
• 10:35
  like almost wide open all the time.
• 10:37
  So very hard to pass when you're running wide open.
• 10:41
  They need more horsepower. The more power, the more money.
• 10:46
  So they try to keep their trucks here.
• 10:48
  Always remember that the more horsepower, the more money, the
• 10:52
  more rebuilds, the more things blow up.
• 10:58
  All right, I'm going to get in the shower.
• 11:01
  The weather's not looking good for the night, but but I am, I'm
• 11:06
  going to gain an hour. So I'll see you all tonight at
• 11:10
  I-55 Federated Auto Parts Raceway, and hopefully the
• 11:15
  weather holds off. Have a great Saturday,
• 11:18
  everybody.
