• 3:03
  Speaker 4: I was infactuated with the fact that there was a
• 3:06
  Speaker 4: haunted room there and they have like books on it
• 3:07
  Speaker 4: and stuff like that.
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: Really, Oh, I didn't know that, dude.

  Speaker 4: a whole room. It's like supposed to be like spooky
• 3:16
  Speaker 4: and scary.

• 3:22
  Speaker 4: You want to hit it, you want me to hit
• 3:23
  Speaker 4: it because I feel like this guy, this is we're
• 3:25
  Speaker 4: talking to a legend right now.
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean number one, welcome to Racing with the boys.
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: We were talking with Kyle Larson. Regarded as the most
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: talented driver in NASCAR. He's attempted the double, which is
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: the ND five hundred and the Coke six hundred all
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: in one day. He's won two championships, including last year's.
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: He races for Hendrick's Motorsports, which is like the Patriots
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: and Yankees. Everybody welcome Kyle Larson and racing with the boys.
• 3:50
  Speaker 4: Absolutely, There's only there's only three of us that usually
• 3:53
  Speaker 4: there's a lot more guys in here when they're in person.
• 3:55
  Speaker 4: But Kyle, buddy, we're reading over the notes, we're looking
• 3:57
  Speaker 4: at everything, and I first off, King ratulations on being
• 4:00
  Speaker 4: regarded one of the most pure race car drivers of
• 4:03
  Speaker 4: all time. I started to look through the notes and
• 4:05
  Speaker 4: it's like, this guy loves racing. Nobody loves racing more
• 4:08
  Speaker 4: than this guy. And then Will starts breaking down your
• 4:10
  Speaker 4: entire family, how everybody's in it. But when you get
• 4:13
  Speaker 4: to the point you're at where you won the Cup
• 4:16
  Speaker 4: Series last year, there's obviously a big announcement we'll talk
• 4:18
  Speaker 4: about in a little bit. And you are racing thirty
• 4:21
  Speaker 4: eight weeks out of the year justin NASCAR. But when
• 4:23
  Speaker 4: you have those breaks in those other fourteen weeks or
• 4:25
  Speaker 4: whatever it is, you're rip around all the other places.
• 4:28
  Speaker 4: Like what do you ever get burnt out?
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: Ever a little bit? Yeah, this time of year. Really,
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: this summer gets crazy for me with all the dirt
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: track race and that I do outside a NASCAR. So
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: the last couple of weeks has been pretty busy racing. God,
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: I think I raced like eleven out of fourteen days
• 4:50
  Speaker 3: or something. Christ Yeah, So it's fun. It's fun, don't
• 4:55
  Speaker 3: get me wrong. I love it. But I wish I
• 4:57
  Speaker 3: could be at two places at once, you know. I
• 4:59
  Speaker 3: wish I could be with the family sometimes while I'm
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: at the racetrack race. But no, I enjoy it. It's
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: I'm still young. I'll be thirty four next month, so
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: I feel like I got to take advantage of these years.
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: But just yeah, race, enjoy it and try to do
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: a good job.
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: Can I ask why you are so accomplished, and obviously
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: it's like any any veteran and somebody again, you're in
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: your thirties, like every athlete kind of goes through because
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: it was the dream growing up, right, And then you
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: hit these spots where you do have a lot of success.
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: You do have a lot of success, and you can
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: kind of control your schedule a little bit more. Why
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: do you continue to race so much? Legitimately, bro on
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: here note number two. The guy never stops racing. He
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: loves racing sprint cars, midgets, dirt, late model, special events,
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: racing your kids in the car. If there's a race involved,
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: you're doing it. Why continue to do it when you
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: kind of don't have to?
• 5:58
  Speaker 3: Yeah, No, I mean, yeah, I don't have to. But
• 6:01
  Speaker 3: I think the few reasons why I keep doing it
• 6:04
  Speaker 3: Number one is because I love it. But then I
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: also feel like it's a great tool for me to
• 6:10
  Speaker 3: get better and hold my craft. I don't know if
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: you guys are familiar with sprint cars and stuff, but
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: they're nine hundred and fifty horse power on a fourteen
• 6:19
  Speaker 3: hundred pound race car, so they are wild fast, violent.
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: All that sort of thing kind of helps I think
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: for me, slow the stock car down fuel wise, and
• 6:32
  Speaker 3: NASCAR cars have six hundred and seventy horse power and
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: weigh thirty six hundred pounds, so the power to weight
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: ratio is quite a bit different. So for me racing
• 6:42
  Speaker 3: the dirt track, the cars are crazy, the track conditions
• 6:46
  Speaker 3: are changing every lap, the races are short, you know,
• 6:49
  Speaker 3: they're only like thirty laps, so it's it's just a
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: different type of racing. But I feel like the aggressiveness
• 6:57
  Speaker 3: really helps for NASCAR so and too. These days, we
• 7:01
  Speaker 3: don't get much behind the wheel time. You know, we
• 7:03
  Speaker 3: only have twenty minutes of practice, then you go into qualifying,
• 7:06
  Speaker 3: and then you go race, so where that's different. The
• 7:09
  Speaker 3: schedule used to be you'd have three hours of practice
• 7:12
  Speaker 3: before you get to the race. You'd have test days
• 7:15
  Speaker 3: and stuff. So now the opportunity to learn behind the
• 7:19
  Speaker 3: wheel of a stock car is much less, So I
• 7:23
  Speaker 3: try to fill that void by your racing the dirt stuff.
• 7:26
  Speaker 4: When you're talking about you only get a certain amount
• 7:28
  Speaker 4: of training per week. Is that like a league NASCAR
• 7:32
  Speaker 4: rule that's taking place where they now have like parameters
• 7:35
  Speaker 4: on everybody or is it just kind of a universal thing.
• 7:38
  Speaker 3: Yeah, No, it's been a NASCAR thing well, and I
• 7:41
  Speaker 3: think the teams kind of asked for it as well
• 7:43
  Speaker 3: because they were getting out of hand with spending money
• 7:47
  Speaker 3: as costs went up, So it was I think it
• 7:50
  Speaker 3: in collaborate with NASCAR and the teams, but to set
• 7:53
  Speaker 3: boundaries on testing and practice schedules. So yeah, it's really
• 7:58
  Speaker 3: just a way to cut costs. And it's definitely I
• 8:03
  Speaker 3: feel like accomplished that in a way, but your teams
• 8:07
  Speaker 3: still find other ways to spend a lot of money.
• 8:09
  Speaker 3: So yeah, right now, I mean, I wish we could
• 8:12
  Speaker 3: practice more because we've been trying to find the right
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: balance on our race car here this year, and it's
• 8:18
  Speaker 3: hard to do that, you know, we only have twenty
• 8:20
  Speaker 3: minutes of practice. So but yeah, no, it is what
• 8:24
  Speaker 3: it is. It's all the same for everybody.
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: So you and it.
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: Used to be a so you're saying you only get
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: twenty minutes of practice now, and it used to be
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: what hours you get hours to practice.
• 8:35
  Speaker 3: So I would say ten this year's ten twelve years ago.
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: It used to be for testing anyways, was like unlimited,
• 8:42
  Speaker 3: so you could test every day of the week. So
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: the Jeff Gordon's, the Jimmy Johnson's you know, Tony Stewart's stuff.
• 8:50
  Speaker 3: You that generation, they were really busy, you know, testing
• 8:53
  Speaker 3: during the week and then you go to the track
• 8:55
  Speaker 3: on the weekend and you would get For me, when
• 8:58
  Speaker 3: I first started, uh, let's see, normal schedule weekend schedule
• 9:02
  Speaker 3: would be like Friday morning you would have like a
• 9:06
  Speaker 3: I don't know hour practice and then there would be
• 9:09
  Speaker 3: a break and then you would qualify that afternoon, and
• 9:14
  Speaker 3: then Saturday you would have two like hour to hour
• 9:17
  Speaker 3: and a half practices to dial in your race car
• 9:21
  Speaker 3: and then you go race on Sunday. So yeah, once COVID,
• 9:24
  Speaker 3: once COVID happened, well they completely cut out practice. They
• 9:29
  Speaker 3: just would show up and race and that kind of
• 9:32
  Speaker 3: that kind of was yeah, it was it was fun
• 9:35
  Speaker 3: and that was kind of the thing for a couple
• 9:37
  Speaker 3: of years. And then now they've just brought it into
• 9:40
  Speaker 3: where we just have yeah, twenty minutes of practice, twenty
• 9:43
  Speaker 3: five minutes of practice, I guess, but one set of tires,
• 9:46
  Speaker 3: like it's it's really you don't really have time to
• 9:49
  Speaker 3: adjust on it, you don't, you know, how you show
• 9:51
  Speaker 3: up to the racetrack is typically pretty close to how
• 9:54
  Speaker 3: your setup is for the race.
• 9:56
  Speaker 4: Dude, it's so the COVID thing's so interesting and not practicing.
• 10:00
  Speaker 4: Will and I were on the Titans in twenty twenty.
• 10:02
  Speaker 4: We had a couple of week period where like a
• 10:04
  Speaker 4: lot of guys were testing positive and we're supposed to
• 10:07
  Speaker 4: play the Pittsburgh Steelers, so that got pushed like four
• 10:10
  Speaker 4: or five days we had to practice on our own.
• 10:12
  Speaker 4: Then all of a sudden, they're.
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: Like, hey, it went into our bye week. Remember yah.
• 10:15
  Speaker 4: Yeah, It being like this is now your bye week
• 10:18
  Speaker 4: and you're no longer playing the Steelers. You're gonna play
• 10:21
  Speaker 4: the Buffalo Bills on a Tuesday, And we just showed
• 10:23
  Speaker 4: up on Monday, hit a quick walkthrough, and then we
• 10:26
  Speaker 4: beat the Bills ass like forty two to ten. It
• 10:29
  Speaker 4: was and saying to the point where like, hey, maybe
• 10:31
  Speaker 4: this practice thing is.
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: Like hey, coach, you mind if we don't practice anymore.
• 10:36
  Speaker 4: It seems like we're the best versions of ourselves as
• 10:38
  Speaker 4: you since you've been in the game for so long,
• 10:39
  Speaker 4: and like clearly you look at your background and like,
• 10:41
  Speaker 4: not only you, but your entire family is just so
• 10:44
  Speaker 4: involved in racing. When you see this transition take place
• 10:47
  Speaker 4: of like hey, you can kind of dial in your
• 10:49
  Speaker 4: car as much as you want during the week, then
• 10:51
  Speaker 4: you go and race. And you talked about the Jeff
• 10:53
  Speaker 4: Gordon to Tony Stewarts, the Dale's, you know, Jimmy Johnson,
• 10:56
  Speaker 4: those guys, and now this new generation is coming up
• 11:00
  Speaker 4: where they're only getting twenty minutes of practice a day
• 11:03
  Speaker 4: or I think during the week they're in the sims.
• 11:05
  Speaker 4: It's a much different landscape of how you prepare for
• 11:07
  Speaker 4: a race. Have you seen a change in the level
• 11:10
  Speaker 4: of racing as of recent since the COVID is taking place.
• 11:14
  Speaker 3: Well, yeah, that's a good point. Yeah, I mean how
• 11:18
  Speaker 3: you prepare definitely looks a lot different these days, and
• 11:21
  Speaker 3: especially for the younger guys coming in who don't aren't
• 11:25
  Speaker 3: able to get in the real car and go learn it.
• 11:28
  Speaker 3: So yeah, a lot more SIM time. And not every
• 11:32
  Speaker 3: driver is doing that. I would say you're younger guys though,
• 11:35
  Speaker 3: because that's how they're trying to learn, and they're in
• 11:37
  Speaker 3: the SIM quite a bit. But for like me, I
• 11:41
  Speaker 3: don't get in the SIM a whole lot. I've done
• 11:42
  Speaker 3: it more this year and I feel like it's helped
• 11:45
  Speaker 3: for sure. It's just hard, you know. I think when
• 11:48
  Speaker 3: the common race fan here is a simulator. They expect
• 11:52
  Speaker 3: that it's identical to the real thing, and it feels
• 11:55
  Speaker 3: exactly the same, and it's such a great tool. Which
• 11:58
  Speaker 3: it's a good tool, but you don't you don't get
• 12:01
  Speaker 3: the forces, you don't get the feel. It's kind of
• 12:05
  Speaker 3: all a little bit of an educated guess on if
• 12:08
  Speaker 3: the physics are close enough. So yeah, it's hard to
• 12:13
  Speaker 3: put a ton of stock in it for me or confidence.
• 12:15
  Speaker 3: But I like to use it for the road courses,
• 12:20
  Speaker 3: especially just to get you for the elevations and things
• 12:24
  Speaker 3: like that. But then yeah, I mean for the racing.
• 12:28
  Speaker 3: I would just say this race car, which came after
• 12:31
  Speaker 3: COVID twenty twenty two was the first year of this
• 12:34
  Speaker 3: race car. It's changed a lot the style of racing.
• 12:37
  Speaker 3: It's super aggressive, overly aggressive in a lot of ways
• 12:41
  Speaker 3: because the car is so tough and you can just
• 12:43
  Speaker 3: you can hit things and not get a ton of damage.
• 12:46
  Speaker 3: So that's something we learned early on. And I think
• 12:51
  Speaker 3: I'll use it to our advantages or even disadvantages, you
• 12:54
  Speaker 3: know sometimes. But so yeah, it's just a man, It's
• 12:58
  Speaker 3: it's wild out there. It's it's definitely way crazier than
• 13:02
  Speaker 3: it used to be, and just yeah, all of us,
• 13:05
  Speaker 3: you know, racing like assholes kind of.
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, you can feel that the using of some
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: of the old school mentality. Yeah, that's coming out of
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: he When we got the sims, people think I would
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: I'd be like in a sim car, and then I
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: go to my boy and be like, this is as
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: close as like I'm basically racing Nascar.
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: You're in the simulator.
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: But you see the uh, the using of the old
• 13:25
  Speaker 2: school mentality happening. How fascinating is it for you because
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: you have a teammate, William Byron, who's been on Racing
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: with the boys a couple of weeks ago. How fascinating
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: is it for you from your vantage point seeing this
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: dude come in somewhat go from video gaming to to
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: racing Nascar.
• 13:40
  Speaker 3: Yeah, well so that was like the I Racing side
• 13:43
  Speaker 3: of it, And yeah, dude, I don't know if you
• 13:46
  Speaker 3: guys have been on I Racing at all, but like,
• 13:48
  Speaker 3: when I get on I Racing, I'm very average. Like
• 13:53
  Speaker 3: those guys are those guys putting hours and hours of
• 13:57
  Speaker 3: time on it every day and they are so good,
• 14:02
  Speaker 3: like they are running to the absolute limit and understand
• 14:06
  Speaker 3: the the little tricks of the trade of the game.
• 14:09
  Speaker 3: So they're really really good and and yeah, you know
• 14:13
  Speaker 3: some of them that are fortunate enough to get to
• 14:15
  Speaker 3: race the real thing, it definitely transfers over. So a
• 14:19
  Speaker 3: guy like William And I mean, he's one of the
• 14:22
  Speaker 3: best in the sport right now. So yeah, it's a
• 14:26
  Speaker 3: it's an awesome platform, uh too. You learn racing and
• 14:31
  Speaker 3: then hopefully you get lucky enough to go do the
• 14:34
  Speaker 3: real thing. So yeah, I Racing has just gotten better
• 14:38
  Speaker 3: and better. I feel like their physics, uh, and feel
• 14:40
  Speaker 3: for the car sometimes relates more to me than the
• 14:47
  Speaker 3: NASCAR simulator. I don't know why that is, but yeah,
• 14:51
  Speaker 3: it's just, uh, it's a great tool for sure.
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: What was your first reaction when an I Racing guy
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: was coming in the NASCAR?
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: You know, was it kind of a chuckle?
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: I'm thinking if it's us and some I'm just gonna
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: say AI for just a lack of a better term,
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: but some AI guy, some AI linebacker was coming in.
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: It's like, okay, buddy, welcome to the Baker.
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: Well, welcome to the big show.
• 15:11
  Speaker 2: But let's see your computer can Yeah, what was your
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: first reaction?
• 15:16
  Speaker 3: Honestly, I mean I don't remember exactly but I have
• 15:20
  Speaker 3: a lot of respect for those guys because when I
• 15:23
  Speaker 3: get on, like I said, I'm very average. So yeah,
• 15:27
  Speaker 3: I'm like, you know, if they're that much faster than
• 15:29
  Speaker 3: me on there, I mean, there's a good chance they
• 15:31
  Speaker 3: could figure this out in real life and be really good.
• 15:33
  Speaker 3: So no, I don't. I don't laugh at it at all,
• 15:37
  Speaker 3: but you.
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: Know, it means Kyle he gets pissed when he's average
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: on the Irate.
• 15:43
  Speaker 4: Yeah, He's like, yeah, this, you should race racing as well.
• 15:49
  Speaker 4: You race everything else, you might as well become the
• 15:51
  Speaker 4: best at that as well.
• 15:53
  Speaker 3: I mean back before I had well, back before I
• 15:56
  Speaker 3: met my now wife and had kids, I was one
• 15:58
  Speaker 3: of those guys on IRATE and I was really good
• 16:02
  Speaker 3: at it. But that was now twelve years ago. So yeah,
• 16:06
  Speaker 3: like I said, I don't have the time to do
• 16:08
  Speaker 3: much of anything outside of the real racing that I'm doing,
• 16:10
  Speaker 3: so I'm not going to spend any more time. Yeah,
• 16:12
  Speaker 3: I have to on a simulator.
• 16:15
  Speaker 4: Will did bring up that William Byron was on this
• 16:17
  Speaker 4: show on Race with a Friend of Racing with the Boys,
• 16:19
  Speaker 4: Friend of the show, Friend of the show. You watch
• 16:21
  Speaker 4: a couple of things on him, like everyone not everyone,
• 16:23
  Speaker 4: but like people kind of give the oh you're having
• 16:26
  Speaker 4: you have William on okay, he's a little more quiet,
• 16:28
  Speaker 4: a little more reserve, keeps to himself. Just speaking for myself,
• 16:32
  Speaker 4: he came on here and I was like wildly surprised
• 16:34
  Speaker 4: versus the expectation I was given and then what he
• 16:36
  Speaker 4: delivered for me on the bus. What was it like
• 16:39
  Speaker 4: for you in your relationship? When he comes up, he's
• 16:41
  Speaker 4: done the IRA racing thing, He's obviously gotten a reputation,
• 16:44
  Speaker 4: be attle, more reserved, likes his legos, kind of keeps
• 16:46
  Speaker 4: to himself a little bit. And then when when did
• 16:48
  Speaker 4: you break through that that little defense mechanism of his
• 16:51
  Speaker 4: and become good friends or maybe hey, listen, maybe you're not.
• 16:54
  Speaker 3: I don't know, no, no, I love William. He's awesome
• 16:59
  Speaker 3: and I I was not his teammate when he first
• 17:02
  Speaker 3: came into the sport, but so I didn't know him
• 17:04
  Speaker 3: as well back then. But he's still the same William
• 17:07
  Speaker 3: like quiet and a little bit socially awkward sometimes which
• 17:12
  Speaker 3: is hilarious and I love it. But he's he's just
• 17:15
  Speaker 3: a he's a really really just great person. Just always smiling.
• 17:19
  Speaker 3: I feel like, always happy and uh, Yeah, he's just
• 17:23
  Speaker 3: he's just fun to be around. He's a good, quirky
• 17:27
  Speaker 3: kind of guy.
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: You know.
• 17:28
  Speaker 3: I've been out with him a couple of times, and uh, yeah,
• 17:31
  Speaker 3: he's just fun. He's we're we're all my teammates, they're
• 17:34
  Speaker 3: all they're all cool in their own way. But William
• 17:37
  Speaker 3: is he's the youngest too, so it's it's fun to
• 17:40
  Speaker 3: like hear what he's got going on. He's single, you know,
• 17:43
  Speaker 3: so you always like to catch up on what he's
• 17:46
  Speaker 3: got going on down there in Charlotte. So yeah, yeah,
• 17:50
  Speaker 3: I know he's awesome.
• 17:51
  Speaker 4: I saw I saw my boy will flip the page,
• 17:53
  Speaker 4: so I know he's gonna change subjects and just say
• 17:55
  Speaker 4: I have one more thing. I want to dip my
• 17:56
  Speaker 4: toe back into this racing all the time, eleven times
• 18:00
  Speaker 4: in fourteen days. When it comes to like the NFL,
• 18:03
  Speaker 4: when you sign a contract, you're like, hey, you're here
• 18:05
  Speaker 4: to play football. So if you want to like do
• 18:08
  Speaker 4: anything extra, whether it's like snowboarding, skateboarding, any any type
• 18:12
  Speaker 4: of other sport or any physical activity, if you get hurt,
• 18:15
  Speaker 4: your contract could be void. In the NASCAR world, when
• 18:18
  Speaker 4: you're going out and you're racing, these dirt tracks, and
• 18:20
  Speaker 4: you're like, these things are you know, nine hundred and
• 18:22
  Speaker 4: fifty horse power, They're only fourteen hundred pounds. They kind
• 18:24
  Speaker 4: of whip their a little squirrely. Did you ever get
• 18:26
  Speaker 4: any pushback from Hendrick's Motorsports or NASCAR as its entire
• 18:31
  Speaker 4: umbrella company, being like, hey, maybe tone it back just
• 18:33
  Speaker 4: a little bit because we need you to be ready
• 18:35
  Speaker 4: for the Cup Series weekend and weekend.
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: I know you love races. Yeah, let's calm back.
• 18:39
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 18:40
  Speaker 3: Yeah, well so yeah, backing up to like the early
• 18:42
  Speaker 3: part of my career, Yeah, I was not allowed to
• 18:45
  Speaker 3: run the dirt stuff, but then like each year kind
• 18:48
  Speaker 3: of went by and I would get a little bit more,
• 18:50
  Speaker 3: a little bit more, and like I said back then,
• 18:52
  Speaker 3: the schedules are a little bit tougher to even do
• 18:54
  Speaker 3: as much as I do now. But yeah, when I
• 18:57
  Speaker 3: joined hendrick again, that was during COVID, so there was
• 19:01
  Speaker 3: no practice, and I think they were accepting of me
• 19:06
  Speaker 3: racing for all those reasons that I mentioned earlier, because
• 19:08
  Speaker 3: I feel like it makes me better. And when I
• 19:11
  Speaker 3: came to Hendrick in twenty twenty one, we had a
• 19:13
  Speaker 3: phenomenal year, won ten races, the championship, and so I
• 19:18
  Speaker 3: think that really showed them that it's not a distraction.
• 19:21
  Speaker 3: I think that was the main concern for my car
• 19:24
  Speaker 3: owner before, and then even you know Hendrick with their
• 19:28
  Speaker 3: drivers who wanted to race dirt back in the day,
• 19:32
  Speaker 3: that it would be a distraction more than it would help.
• 19:35
  Speaker 3: But the good season I had in twenty twenty one,
• 19:37
  Speaker 3: I think showed them that, yeah, it took me, it
• 19:40
  Speaker 3: helps everything. So, yeah, there's the danger part of it
• 19:43
  Speaker 3: and the risks side of it, and for sure, I
• 19:45
  Speaker 3: mean sprint cars, there's guys getting injured every week and
• 19:49
  Speaker 3: you hope that you're not one of them that does.
• 19:51
  Speaker 3: But yeah, I think again, I think Hendrick Motorsports is
• 19:56
  Speaker 3: accepting of the fact that it is who I am.
• 19:59
  Speaker 3: I love doing it and it makes me better, and
• 20:02
  Speaker 3: they're willing to take the risk along with me.
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: Can I tell you something that was a phenomenal question?
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: Thank you?
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah? Yeah, because I love learning that it there is
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: always even it's like, even this is a stupid example,
• 20:12
  Speaker 2: but when we were doing the pod, while we were playing,
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: it's like the level of distraction you feel like you
• 20:16
  Speaker 2: would cause the team and then once you kind of
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: break through that bubble.
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: That's just that's awesome to learn about. That was a
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: great question. That means a lot. I appreciate that.
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: On the will Going back to the William Byer and
• 20:27
  Speaker 2: you mentioned the single, You mentioned him being single, kind
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: of getting you know, trying to get a feel. Do
• 20:31
  Speaker 2: you ever give him some game to finding like a
• 20:34
  Speaker 2: wife that's in the racing world, because you have one
• 20:37
  Speaker 2: like Caitlyn, She shotguns, beers, Your kids they drive as well,
• 20:41
  Speaker 2: so you kind of have like as good of a
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: setup as you possibly can to chase your ambition, ambition
• 20:47
  Speaker 2: and racing because everybody on the family kind of knows
• 20:50
  Speaker 2: what it is when it comes to racing.
• 20:52
  Speaker 3: Yeah, well, I wouldn't say that I have any game, so
• 20:55
  Speaker 3: I'm not gonna I'm definitely not able to help him
• 20:59
  Speaker 3: out that side of things. But uh no, I think
• 21:03
  Speaker 3: William is a very picky person. That's who That's what
• 21:06
  Speaker 3: I've learned about him as being his teammate. He's very
• 21:08
  Speaker 3: he knows what he wants and uh so, yeah, I
• 21:11
  Speaker 3: think his window of finding the right the perfect girl
• 21:14
  Speaker 3: for him, uh is smaller than a normal single dude
• 21:19
  Speaker 3: living in the city. So but yeah, that's what makes
• 21:22
  Speaker 3: it fun. I think, you know, on the plane ride
• 21:24
  Speaker 3: home from the races to quism on how on how
• 21:28
  Speaker 3: it's going. But he's also I think it's tough for
• 21:31
  Speaker 3: him because he is so like locked in on racing
• 21:34
  Speaker 3: and focused and does a great job with you know,
• 21:38
  Speaker 3: the simulator stuff and and just studying that. I don't
• 21:42
  Speaker 3: know if he I don't know if he can balance
• 21:45
  Speaker 3: all of it out of finding a girl and perform
• 21:48
  Speaker 3: at the top level like he does.
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: Dude.
• 21:50
  Speaker 4: Yeah, but if there's any man out there that has
• 21:53
  Speaker 4: the ability to get him a girl, a wife, whatever,
• 21:58
  Speaker 4: it's you, because you the guy, your your wife, she's
• 22:01
  Speaker 4: about it. Your kids are all racing. You got a
• 22:03
  Speaker 4: brother who's doing dirt tracks like you are so like
• 22:06
  Speaker 4: will have said so many times, like so integrated. Your
• 22:09
  Speaker 4: wife's got to have a friend out there that loves
• 22:10
  Speaker 4: the game as much as she does. And she's like, hey,
• 22:12
  Speaker 4: this is William Bid.
• 22:13
  Speaker 2: And you know too, like when you're a young Thundercat
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: and you're out there, you're you're on the prow, you're doing.
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: All these things.
• 22:18
  Speaker 2: It's not like I'm almost assuming he probably didn't know
• 22:21
  Speaker 2: he was going to have the situation that he does
• 22:24
  Speaker 2: have until like you're in it, your years in it,
• 22:26
  Speaker 2: you have kids with them, and then you're kind of
• 22:28
  Speaker 2: sitting back you're like, thank god, my wife is like
• 22:31
  Speaker 2: she's in the racing mode. Like my thank god her
• 22:33
  Speaker 2: brother's a stud and sprint cars. Like you kind of
• 22:35
  Speaker 2: got the a great perfect storm where your kids race
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: now and you kind of don't realize until you're already
• 22:42
  Speaker 2: in it.
• 22:42
  Speaker 4: Like the only thing you bring up that I'm like, yeah,
• 22:44
  Speaker 4: But the Thundercat part is I don't think William Biron
• 22:48
  Speaker 4: like doesn't sound like he's really he's looking it sounds
• 22:50
  Speaker 4: like he's just this guy's a professional.
• 22:53
  Speaker 2: But yeah, true, But also just speaking like with for
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: Kyle obviously I'm speaking for him. Just kind of don't
• 22:58
  Speaker 2: know your friend set up. You can do that until
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: you're like in the you're in the professional world.
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: Guys got their way. You just see how everything kind.
• 23:04
  Speaker 2: Of unfolds when you start to get experience in marriage
• 23:07
  Speaker 2: and having kids and everything else where. You're like, oh,
• 23:09
  Speaker 2: I kind of have a family that think, God, we're
• 23:11
  Speaker 2: all ingrained and racing, because I feel bad if she's
• 23:14
  Speaker 2: rocking with the kids back home, my kids aren't in racing.
• 23:16
  Speaker 2: She wasn't as much of a racing fan. I'm doing
• 23:19
  Speaker 2: all this racing now I'm successful, so I kind of
• 23:21
  Speaker 2: feel a dad guilt to be back at home. It's
• 23:23
  Speaker 2: like everybody kind of just knows the job. Everybody kind
• 23:26
  Speaker 2: of knows what it is and they all love it, right.
• 23:29
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean speaking for my situation, yeah, it's it
• 23:33
  Speaker 3: is perfect. Like, yeah, I'm so fortunate that my wife
• 23:37
  Speaker 3: grew up around racing and she gets to grind. She
• 23:42
  Speaker 3: knows it. I mean, her brother ran on the Word
• 23:44
  Speaker 3: Lolla Tour for gosh ten years. They race way more
• 23:47
  Speaker 3: than I do. They're ninety nights a year, so yeah,
• 23:51
  Speaker 3: she understands the grind. And then my kids, yeah, they're
• 23:54
  Speaker 3: they're into it. And yeah, just having I think a
• 23:59
  Speaker 3: partner that understands your your profession is great and then
• 24:06
  Speaker 3: not for yeah, but I was gonna say that, and
• 24:08
  Speaker 3: that's maybe not for everybody. I think. I feel like
• 24:11
  Speaker 3: William is the type that like he kind of seems
• 24:15
  Speaker 3: like he wants a girl that does, you know, knows
• 24:17
  Speaker 3: nothing about racing. So yeah, I think it's just kind
• 24:20
  Speaker 3: of whatever you're into. But thankfully for me, mine knows
• 24:23
  Speaker 3: everything about racing.
• 24:24

  Speaker 2: with Kyle Larson Audrey, who's the better racer? Owen or Audrey?
• 25:01
  Speaker 3: What's inside? Right here?
• 25:04
  Speaker 4: Hey, stick with us here because I have two kids.
• 25:06
  Speaker 4: One of the way William has two kids, Like which
• 25:09
  Speaker 4: one is just dad's talking, just some dads talking, Which
• 25:12
  Speaker 4: one is the one? Which one's like, Hey, listen, they
• 25:16
  Speaker 4: all probably gonna be successful. But this motherfucker sorry, not
• 25:19
  Speaker 4: gona curs kids. This one right here, this one's probably
• 25:22
  Speaker 4: got it.
• 25:24
  Speaker 3: Uh. I would say, I would say my daughter.
• 25:29
  Speaker 4: Hey, that's gotta like kind of extra special.
• 25:32
  Speaker 3: Yeah, well, I just think she's I don't know it's
• 25:35
  Speaker 3: hard to kind of compare them because they're different. But
• 25:37
  Speaker 3: oh and my son, he's the older one. He's good too,
• 25:40
  Speaker 3: but he's like, I don't know, he's this not mentally
• 25:43
  Speaker 3: as confident as she is. She she is very competitive
• 25:50
  Speaker 3: and she wants to do a good job and everything
• 25:52
  Speaker 3: that she does. She she races, she plays ice hockey,
• 25:56
  Speaker 3: and she takes everything super serious. So she'll sit down
• 26:01
  Speaker 3: on the couch and study film. And then you can, like,
• 26:05
  Speaker 3: because I think she's a girl too, you can actually
• 26:08
  Speaker 3: she can retain information a little bit better than so yeah,
• 26:13
  Speaker 3: you can like talk to her and and then try
• 26:16
  Speaker 3: to coach her and see her try to do it
• 26:18
  Speaker 3: on the racetrack. So yeah, I think she's I think
• 26:22
  Speaker 3: she's a step ahead of where he was at the
• 26:25
  Speaker 3: same age. But you know, some kids develop at different
• 26:28
  Speaker 3: different speed, No, no, Owen, Yeah, Oen definitely shows glimpses
• 26:33
  Speaker 3: of like, man, I think he could be really good.
• 26:36
  Speaker 3: So but yeah, for right now, I mean they're both
• 26:39
  Speaker 3: so young. It's it's all about having fun in the racing.
• 26:43
  Speaker 3: But yeah, you can, at least right now I can
• 26:45
  Speaker 3: tell Audrey is she's into it.
• 26:50
  Speaker 5: Uh.
• 26:50
  Speaker 3: So we have three kids, We have Owen is eleven
• 26:54
  Speaker 3: and a half. Audrey just turned eight, uh in May,
• 26:58
  Speaker 3: and then we have a three and a half year
• 26:59
  Speaker 3: old boy is absolutely wild. He's got a mullet. Oh yeah,
• 27:04
  Speaker 3: he's savage. Yeah, we permed his mullet. He's It matches
• 27:08
  Speaker 3: his personality perfectly. He's crazy. So I'm hoping to keep
• 27:13
  Speaker 3: him out of a race car for a while because
• 27:15
  Speaker 3: I think it would be expensive. He'll be crashing every week.
• 27:18
  Speaker 4: I'm with you on that.
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Owen's got a bunch of time.
• 27:21
  Speaker 2: Eleven and a half, you got a bunch of ye
• 27:22
  Speaker 2: in the pressures as an older as the oldest, you
• 27:25
  Speaker 2: kind of carry you different. The second one, I feel like,
• 27:28
  Speaker 2: even with Scotty and Rue, Rue has a Scotty just
• 27:31
  Speaker 2: doesn't give a ship like she's just she's always ready
• 27:34
  Speaker 2: to go, you know what I mean.
• 27:35
  Speaker 4: Yeah, she's splitting attention. She's vying for positions, she's jocking
• 27:38
  Speaker 4: for position correct in the household as opposed to being
• 27:41
  Speaker 4: when you're the first born, all the attentions on, you're like, oh,
• 27:43
  Speaker 4: look how great this one has I made this one?
• 27:45
  Speaker 4: This is amazing. Yeah, second one's got a little more
• 27:47
  Speaker 4: to prove than that. God forbid. That third one sounds
• 27:49
  Speaker 4: like Coop's coming with some business. He's ready to go. Yeah,
• 27:53
  Speaker 4: and I'll tell you this too, dude, when you think
• 27:54
  Speaker 4: about Owen eleven years old, I quit baseball when I
• 27:57
  Speaker 4: was young because I was afraid of getting hit by
• 27:59
  Speaker 4: the ball. I quit hockey once checking was involved. I
• 28:01
  Speaker 4: quit football because I was afraid to get tackled. All right,
• 28:04
  Speaker 4: I hit fifteen years old. Now look at you, and
• 28:06
  Speaker 4: now look I'm I was a big physical boy when
• 28:08
  Speaker 4: it all, when it all got said done, So there's
• 28:11
  Speaker 4: there's time and opportunity for Owen.
• 28:13
  Speaker 3: I'm sure once you realize how your your size was
• 28:16
  Speaker 3: probably compared to others, you're like, Okay, I got this.
• 28:20
  Speaker 5: I think.
• 28:20
  Speaker 4: I think what you say about your son too, like
• 28:22
  Speaker 4: oh like he like the confidence. I didn't have a
• 28:24
  Speaker 4: whole lot of that. And then really, once puberty started,
• 28:27
  Speaker 4: once a distastrom starts running through your veins, like you
• 28:30
  Speaker 4: have like a not a confidence, more of an arrogance
• 28:32
  Speaker 4: about you, and it just kind of funneled into football
• 28:34
  Speaker 4: from there.
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it right.
• 28:36
  Speaker 2: I feel like I always a shyer kid, because if
• 28:39
  Speaker 2: you're when you're the oldest, all the expectation is kind
• 28:42
  Speaker 2: of around the first one. It might not even be expectation,
• 28:45
  Speaker 2: but that's how the oldest one feels, whereas the second
• 28:47
  Speaker 2: one you're just you're ripping and rolling right behind like, hey,
• 28:49
  Speaker 2: I'm coming for you.
• 28:50
  Speaker 4: But yeah, exactly if you have somebody you you have
• 28:52
  Speaker 4: a pace car in front of you.
• 28:53
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you in the middle one or the second one's mind,
• 28:56
  Speaker 2: the oldest has always been the favorite, so it's easy
• 28:58
  Speaker 2: to kind of just like gain some ground.
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah, hey I'm on your toes.
• 29:02
  Speaker 4: Yeah you do good. Yeah, Kyle, you have brothers, sisters
• 29:04
  Speaker 4: or anything like that.
• 29:06
  Speaker 3: I have a sister, she's she's four years older than me.
• 29:08
  Speaker 3: She she never raised or anything, but she was you know,
• 29:11
  Speaker 3: she was a great supporter of mine because she would,
• 29:14
  Speaker 3: i mean, had to go to the racetrack with me
• 29:16
  Speaker 3: and you can't. But yeah, no, she was. She's she's
• 29:20
  Speaker 3: a lot like my daughter, sassy and aggressive and not
• 29:25
  Speaker 3: afraid to speak her mind when the other kids would
• 29:28
  Speaker 3: get into me when I was younger.
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: Do you know, yeah, you so.
• 29:32
  Speaker 4: Will was brought up your wife chugging beers after wins
• 29:35
  Speaker 4: every once in a while, like you and your wife.
• 29:37
  Speaker 4: Let me just give you hypothetical. You guys are in
• 29:39
  Speaker 4: a cornado right now. You guys go to a belly
• 29:41
  Speaker 4: up at a bar real quick, and so a wild
• 29:44
  Speaker 4: hair gets in both of you, and you guys are like,
• 29:45
  Speaker 4: let's see you can kind of out drink the other.
• 29:48
  Speaker 4: Which one of you is staying on the stool the
• 29:50
  Speaker 4: longest beer for beer?
• 29:53
  Speaker 3: Well, I would say, neither of us really drink anymore.
• 29:57
  Speaker 3: She definitely doesn't. She like, I'll have, you know, a
• 30:00
  Speaker 3: glass of wine or something here and there. But so, yeah,
• 30:03
  Speaker 3: she's kind of outgrown her shotgun and phase of her life.
• 30:07
  Speaker 3: She's she's about to be thirty five, so I think
• 30:09
  Speaker 3: the hangovers hit a little different these days. But oh
• 30:13
  Speaker 3: so yeah, no she Uh, I think only on special
• 30:16
  Speaker 3: occasions will she will she shotgun a beer? So like
• 30:19
  Speaker 3: the last one was the championship in Phoenix last November.
• 30:23
  Speaker 3: So and before that, god, I don't even know when
• 30:26
  Speaker 3: the last time she shotguns. So but the fans, I mean,
• 30:29
  Speaker 3: they still think it's like a daily thing, and uh,
• 30:34
  Speaker 3: every time, literally every weekend, all have fans come up
• 30:39
  Speaker 3: to me like, Hey, where's your wife? I want to
• 30:40
  Speaker 3: shotgun a beer with her.
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: She's doing it all day long.
• 30:44
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 30:44
  Speaker 4: Yeah, she's just waiting with a with a cooler right
• 30:46
  Speaker 4: next to her and a sign like can you out
• 30:48
  Speaker 4: chug me?
• 30:49
  Speaker 3: Yeah exactly, but nah she uh not that either of
• 30:54
  Speaker 3: us are great drinkers, but back when we did drink,
• 30:58
  Speaker 3: I guess I feel like I would be to handle
• 31:00
  Speaker 3: it better than her. We're both we're both small, so
• 31:02
  Speaker 3: like we can't handle it very well anyways, but I
• 31:06
  Speaker 3: would beat her.
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: I love that.
• 31:07
  Speaker 2: That reminds me of him telling that story about his
• 31:10
  Speaker 2: wife shotgun beers and fans coming up. It's like people
• 31:12
  Speaker 2: see you just delete beers or you've deleted beers in
• 31:15
  Speaker 2: the past, and fans will just come up like hey,
• 31:17
  Speaker 2: I want to go one on one, and You're like, buddy,
• 31:19
  Speaker 2: like I don't drink like you. I just do it
• 31:22
  Speaker 2: every now and then, right right, it just happens to
• 31:24
  Speaker 2: be caught on film because I'm.
• 31:26
  Speaker 4: With you and your wife in the sense that like
• 31:27
  Speaker 4: you wait in my twenties, buddy, like anybody who wanted
• 31:29
  Speaker 4: to catch hands chucking a beer, Like we're gonna go
• 31:31
  Speaker 4: toe to toe right now. Now, I'm thirty four, but
• 31:34
  Speaker 4: gonna be thirty five in July. And if I even
• 31:37
  Speaker 4: like I went out with the boys last weekend and
• 31:39
  Speaker 4: had a few drinks and I still feel like I'm
• 31:41
  Speaker 4: recovering almost almost two weeks later. It's like it's it
• 31:45
  Speaker 4: just crushes your body. It's horrendous.
• 31:48
  Speaker 3: I have I wear a whoop now now, So like
• 31:51
  Speaker 3: that was the big thing. I feel like that was
• 31:53
  Speaker 3: eye opening to me. Was like, man, I have one
• 31:56
  Speaker 3: drink in my recoveries. Yeah, yeah, yellow, two drinks, it's red.
• 32:02
  Speaker 3: I'm like, okay, I'm this is I'm done.
• 32:04
  Speaker 2: And it's for like it's a residual effect too. It
• 32:08
  Speaker 2: takes a It takes a couple of days to get
• 32:10
  Speaker 2: back the green.
• 32:10
  Speaker 4: It really does. Because my sleeping record eight hours of
• 32:13
  Speaker 4: sleep last night and my recovery was still in the yellow.
• 32:16
  Speaker 4: And I haven't had a green day since I went out,
• 32:19
  Speaker 4: not the last fight with the Friday before that, two
• 32:22
  Speaker 4: fridays ago. Wow, we're sitting on Thursday right now.

• 32:28
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean I need a few green days.
• 32:30
  Speaker 3: You can tell her in our mid thirties, Yeah, a
• 32:33
  Speaker 3: lying Carl.
• 32:34
  Speaker 4: Let me let me ask you this, like you're you
• 32:36
  Speaker 4: got the whoop on, you're focused on your body? How
• 32:39
  Speaker 4: are you with astrology? What does a waxing crescent mean
• 32:42
  Speaker 4: to you?
• 32:42
  Speaker 3: Oh my god, I had I don't. I don't know
• 32:45
  Speaker 3: what that is at all. I heard those guys talking
• 32:48
  Speaker 3: about it, I don't know, a couple of months ago,
• 32:50
  Speaker 3: and I'm like, what is this lasting crescent? So I
• 32:52
  Speaker 3: asked chat GBT, like what are these guys talking about? Yeah,
• 32:57
  Speaker 3: so I don't know if it's a thing or not.
• 32:59
  Speaker 3: I don't. I guess I would need to pay attention
• 33:01
  Speaker 3: to it more to see if it was actually a thing.
• 33:03
  Speaker 3: I don't think it's a thing. Do you think it's
• 33:06
  Speaker 3: a thing?
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: Dude? Here's what I am like.
• 33:08
  Speaker 4: I'm a placebo guy. So if you give me something,
• 33:11
  Speaker 4: you're like, hey, by the way, this will make you
• 33:12
  Speaker 4: a bigger, stronger, faster if you just take this, but
• 33:14
  Speaker 4: it's a sugar pill, I'd be like, I'm gonna get bigger, stronger,
• 33:17
  Speaker 4: faster right now. I'm the easier. My brain will just
• 33:19
  Speaker 4: agree with whatever whoever tells me the information first that's
• 33:22
  Speaker 4: gonna now be in my opinion. So I to answer
• 33:25
  Speaker 4: your question, I one hundred percent think the waxing christ You.
• 33:28
  Speaker 2: Know, Kyle like it's he's looking up if it's true
• 33:31
  Speaker 2: or not. But to him, it doesn't matter that he's
• 33:33
  Speaker 2: old school. He's like, let's get in the nine to
• 33:35
  Speaker 2: fifty horse power. Yeah, and let's see how these are
• 33:38
  Speaker 2: gonna run this week.
• 33:38
  Speaker 4: Yeah, my foot's heavier than yours. We're gonna find.
• 33:40
  Speaker 1: Out what's going on.
• 33:42
  Speaker 2: You take your astrology bullshit and you can shove it
• 33:44
  Speaker 2: up your ass.
• 33:45
  Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, he doesn't. He doesn't worry about size, dude.
• 33:48
  Speaker 4: He's like, virgo, that shit sounds lame, dude, We're not
• 33:50
  Speaker 4: doing that. So when it comes to race day, you
• 33:53
  Speaker 4: don't keep a right sock on, just the right sock.
• 33:57
  Speaker 3: Well, I am superstitious.
• 34:00
  Speaker 4: Let's go ahead, let's get in the stitions.
• 34:02
  Speaker 3: I I definitely I do put my right sock on first, always,
• 34:07
  Speaker 3: right glove on first, and then. Oh another thing that's
• 34:13
  Speaker 3: followed me my whole life in racing is ladybugs are
• 34:17
  Speaker 3: good luck. So so I ran a ladybug sticker on
• 34:21
  Speaker 3: my race car. My whole life. So from when I
• 34:24
  Speaker 3: started racing when I was seven till now, there's still
• 34:27
  Speaker 3: a ladybug on there and on all my dirt track merchandise.
• 34:30
  Speaker 3: We kind of hide a ladybug somewhere on this shirt.
• 34:33
  Speaker 3: So yeah, those those would be kind of my superstitions.
• 34:37
  Speaker 4: I feel like, would you say that a ladybug is
• 34:39
  Speaker 4: your spirit animal?
• 34:43
  Speaker 3: Sure? Why not?
• 34:44
  Speaker 2: Hell yeah, Kyle, ladybug Larsen. I like that.
• 34:49
  Speaker 4: I'm messed with that because the spirit. My kids are
• 34:52
  Speaker 4: all into that right now. They want to be wolves
• 34:54
  Speaker 4: or you know, the most intimidating, amazing figures. Hell yeah,
• 34:58
  Speaker 4: funny enough, your animal is a ladybug. I did a
• 35:01
  Speaker 4: tarot card one time. The first thing that popped up
• 35:03
  Speaker 4: was a ladybug. That's like good luck and all these things.
• 35:05
  Speaker 1: I'm like, all right, so maybe Kyle's your driver.
• 35:07
  Speaker 4: Kyle might be my driver. I might have to hit it.
• 35:13
  Speaker 3: I don't know.
• 35:14
  Speaker 4: I don't know.
• 35:15
  Speaker 3: I'd put your money on SPG.
• 35:17
  Speaker 4: So now a couple of weeks spgg.
• 35:23
  Speaker 3: VEG Shamean Gisberg. He smokes us on these read courses.
• 35:26
  Speaker 4: Really.
• 35:30
  Speaker 2: Knowing that he's the guy. Is there ever any like
• 35:33
  Speaker 2: uh above board conversations like hey, some one of us
• 35:37
  Speaker 2: has got to kind of get him, kind of get
• 35:40
  Speaker 2: him aggressively, not like, you know, get him out of
• 35:42
  Speaker 2: the race, but somebody's got to kind of do something.
• 35:45
  Speaker 1: When we get in this race early.
• 35:47
  Speaker 3: I feel like we do need to come together and
• 35:49
  Speaker 3: talk about it because it's it's crazy. It's crazy how
• 35:51
  Speaker 3: much faster than that? So, yeah, he needs the wreck.
• 35:54
  Speaker 3: That's not our only chance.
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: You can get William Byron on it.
• 36:00
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 36:00
  Speaker 4: Yeah, Oh hey, I'll buy you a ten thousand piece
• 36:03
  Speaker 4: of lego set if you just take this guy out.
• 36:05
  Speaker 1: Yeah, there you go.
• 36:07
  Speaker 2: And speaking of your teammates too, we're actually supposed to
• 36:10
  Speaker 2: have on Chase Elliott today and we're fired up because
• 36:13
  Speaker 2: he's obviously a legend. But everybody we've came that we've
• 36:16
  Speaker 2: come across has been like, he's a hard one to crack.
• 36:19
  Speaker 2: He's a hard bubble to burst. He's hard to like
• 36:22
  Speaker 2: get into the conferenceation, Like, what tips and advice would
• 36:24
  Speaker 2: you have for us, knowing that you've been a teammate
• 36:27
  Speaker 2: with him for.
• 36:27
  Speaker 3: A while, I'm still trying to figure it out. So no,
• 36:30
  Speaker 3: I think you guys, you guys are fun, this is
• 36:33
  Speaker 3: a fun setting. I think you would crack him pretty easily.
• 36:36
  Speaker 3: I've been around him a few times when he's been
• 36:38
  Speaker 3: a great time, but I would say most of the
• 36:40
  Speaker 3: time he's like an old soul, kind of keeps to himself.
• 36:45
  Speaker 3: I don't really know what. He doesn't live in the
• 36:47
  Speaker 3: North Carolina like near the shop, so he he lives
• 36:50
  Speaker 3: in Georgia's those hometowns. Like, I have no clue what
• 36:53
  Speaker 3: he's into. Yeah, he doesn't open up a whole lot,
• 36:56
  Speaker 3: which is cool. I respect it. Yeah, I think you
• 36:59
  Speaker 3: guys could crack him.
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: What gets him laughing?
• 37:01
  Speaker 2: Like what gets him going to where you've seen him
• 37:02
  Speaker 2: laughing and you're like, if you can remember have the
• 37:05
  Speaker 2: awareness of what you guys were kind of talking about
• 37:07
  Speaker 2: at the time. You're like, Okay, he does have some personality.
• 37:10
  Speaker 3: I don't know. I don't know. He doesn't laugh a
• 37:12
  Speaker 3: whole lot.
• 37:14
  Speaker 1: We got to work cut out tea man doesn't know.
• 37:17
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you guys had Bubba on right, and have you
• 37:19
  Speaker 3: had Blanie on yet?
• 37:20
  Speaker 1: They came on together?
• 37:21
  Speaker 4: You had the one together. They were great, But we
• 37:23
  Speaker 4: Blanie is a second time friend of the show.
• 37:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah, second time. We had him a couple of times.
• 37:27
  Speaker 4: Last time we had him clean cut like you are
• 37:29
  Speaker 4: right now, and now he's rocking a deep thick. It's nice.
• 37:32
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I was gonna say they're like all best friends. Though,
• 37:35
  Speaker 3: so you know, they probably have great times together and
• 37:39
  Speaker 3: probably could help you give you some insight on on
• 37:42
  Speaker 3: how to crack indows, maybe reach back outs.
• 37:44
  Speaker 1: Kyle's trying to get in their group. Yes, he's trying
• 37:46
  Speaker 1: to get They got a good trio thing going. I
• 37:48
  Speaker 1: wonder if they have room for four.
• 37:50
  Speaker 4: Yeah, well you need to you need to learn a
• 37:52
  Speaker 4: wax and crush it before you get the invite. Uh,
• 37:54
  Speaker 4: just so you know for the upcoming race that will
• 37:56
  Speaker 4: this will come out next week. So this is all
• 37:58
  Speaker 4: just like fluff that doesn't to be in. But uh SVG,
• 38:02
  Speaker 4: he's minus one sixty in this race. You're plus twenty
• 38:06
  Speaker 4: seven hundred.
• 38:07
  Speaker 3: Oh wow, maybe undergo right?
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah?
• 38:10
  Speaker 4: Yeah, plus is bad minus his favorite.
• 38:13
  Speaker 3: Yeah he should be minus twenty seven hundred.
• 38:17
  Speaker 4: Oh really damn.
• 38:19
  Speaker 1: He's got a lot of respect on this.
• 38:20
  Speaker 3: Yeah. I mean he's like every road He's won every
• 38:23
  Speaker 3: road quarter race I think in the last like two
• 38:25
  Speaker 3: years except for Coda. He finished second this year. So yeah, yeah,
• 38:29
  Speaker 3: and when I say win, he's not winning by a
• 38:31
  Speaker 3: small margin. He's win in by like fifteen seconds.
• 38:34
  Speaker 4: So you might have to put a bag on SPG.
• 38:36
  Speaker 3: How do you feel plus twenty seven hundred. I don't
• 38:38
  Speaker 3: feel like I'm not I know that.
• 38:40
  Speaker 2: I feel like you kind of I don't even know
• 38:41
  Speaker 2: if you should have said.
• 38:42
  Speaker 4: That that was well, yeah, you know what, Now that
• 38:43
  Speaker 4: you go back at it, it's like, yeah, maybe I
• 38:44
  Speaker 4: should have put. I just wanted him to know where
• 38:46
  Speaker 4: he was at.
• 38:46
  Speaker 1: He's gonna have like five Lady books stick like that.
• 38:51
  Speaker 2: Hey, how do you feel about Sonoma? It's kind of
• 38:54
  Speaker 2: as close as you get to a home crowd. Yeah, Like,
• 38:55
  Speaker 2: do you feel like you have a little bit of
• 38:58
  Speaker 2: a superpower going into Sonoma?
• 39:01
  Speaker 3: I like Sonoma. I would say it's probably my best
• 39:03
  Speaker 3: road course for sure. We won a couple of races there.
• 39:06
  Speaker 3: There was a stretch I think where I got the
• 39:08
  Speaker 3: pole there like five years in a row, so it's
• 39:11
  Speaker 3: it's definitely my best one in a couple of years
• 39:15
  Speaker 3: since we won there, I guess not really, I guess
• 39:17
  Speaker 3: we won in twenty twenty four maybe there, But yeah,
• 39:21
  Speaker 3: I like it, And yeah it's my home race, so
• 39:24
  Speaker 3: get some friends and family there. But more more than that,
• 39:27
  Speaker 3: I mean, it's just a Napa Valley is just awesome.
• 39:29
  Speaker 1: Yeah, gorgeous.
• 39:31
  Speaker 3: Yeah, uh huh. So I love going there and spending
• 39:35
  Speaker 3: it as vacation. Really, these two weeks is something I've
• 39:37
  Speaker 3: been looking forward to for a while. Home state. You know,
• 39:40
  Speaker 3: beautiful weather, great food, great wine. So yeah, I'm pumped
• 39:46
  Speaker 3: for it. And then you get to throw in some
• 39:47
  Speaker 3: racing on the weekend is always good.
• 39:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 39:49
  Speaker 2: It sounds like you being really good at this road course.
• 39:52
  Speaker 2: Like what makes this one difficult or what like separates
• 39:56
  Speaker 2: a great road course from just like a good one.
• 40:00
  Speaker 3: Yeah. I think for me Sonoma, I do better there
• 40:05
  Speaker 3: because it's less corners. I feel like the more corners
• 40:08
  Speaker 3: get you have to screw it up. So yeah, Sonoma's
• 40:13
  Speaker 3: only eleven turns. Uh. And then like Coda, I would
• 40:17
  Speaker 3: say is one of my worst ones, and it's like
• 40:20
  Speaker 3: like twenty something corners, but uh, I'm not sure. Sonoma's
• 40:24
  Speaker 3: pretty Uh, Sonoma's pretty flowy and and just got more grip.
• 40:30
  Speaker 3: So I like that part of it. And then probably
• 40:32
  Speaker 3: being at home, you know, gets you your mind in
• 40:35
  Speaker 3: a better spot.
• 40:36
  Speaker 1: Give the juices a little bit.
• 40:37
  Speaker 4: We've asked every single once I've learned about this individual.
• 40:40
  Speaker 4: I've took it upon myself to ask about this guy
• 40:42
  Speaker 4: every single racing with the boys we do. And you're
• 40:45
  Speaker 4: an old school cat, Like there's a piece of you
• 40:47
  Speaker 4: that right there, sits with the old dogs, and it's like, yeah,
• 40:49
  Speaker 4: we like the old way things used to be. Just
• 40:51
  Speaker 4: a piece of you might might be in there. Every
• 40:53
  Speaker 4: time I brought up the name Carson Hosovar to the
• 40:56
  Speaker 4: some of these racers, it's the exact reaction you just
• 40:59
  Speaker 4: add and it it's like, yeah, you know this guy
• 41:01
  Speaker 4: flies by, see if his pantsy makes his own decisions whatever.
• 41:04
  Speaker 4: There's like a because I know there's like an unspoken
• 41:06
  Speaker 4: rule that takes place in all sports, not just Nascar,
• 41:09
  Speaker 4: not just football, of like how to act with the
• 41:12
  Speaker 4: older guys, the young guys and all the respect game.
• 41:15
  Speaker 4: What is your interactions with uh with Carson host Froben
• 41:19
  Speaker 4: liking if your son or daughter who's right right there there, they're.
• 41:21
  Speaker 5: More than crazy crazy kid Cooper, Yeah kid, he's doing the.
• 41:39
  Speaker 3: Host of are he honestly like? I respect his talent.
• 41:42
  Speaker 3: I think he's extremely extremely good and fast. I think
• 41:47
  Speaker 3: he is Uh. I like his aggressive this even but
• 41:51
  Speaker 3: I would say it goes overboard a lot of the time.
• 41:54
  Speaker 3: And then for me, I don't know, he's just like
• 41:56
  Speaker 3: he's young, but he's just kind of like he's he's
• 41:59
  Speaker 3: doing more immature than what his age is. Uh. I
• 42:04
  Speaker 3: have his little twitch stream thing pop up on my
• 42:07
  Speaker 3: Instagram feed every now and then. I'm like, dude, this
• 42:09
  Speaker 3: guy is like an eight year old. So it's uh,
• 42:13
  Speaker 3: that's where I lose a little bit of respect because
• 42:15
  Speaker 3: I'm like, man, this guy's supposed to be, like, could
• 42:18
  Speaker 3: be the future of our sport. Yeah, acting like he's
• 42:20
  Speaker 3: eight years old. But but no, I mean he's, uh,
• 42:24
  Speaker 3: he's phenomenal. He's I mean, he outruns his teammates by
• 42:27
  Speaker 3: a lot every week, so he's really good. And uh,
• 42:30
  Speaker 3: he's gonna be around for a long time and gonna
• 42:32
  Speaker 3: win a lot of races. I think once he definitely
• 42:34
  Speaker 3: harnesses himself some and kind of can dial back that
• 42:40
  Speaker 3: aggression a little bit and manage a race better. I
• 42:42
  Speaker 3: think he can. He can win multiple races of a year,
• 42:44
  Speaker 3: and he's close to that. He's definitely gotten better over
• 42:47
  Speaker 3: the last couple of years. So but yeah, I don't
• 42:50
  Speaker 3: know him that well. So maybe if I knew him
• 42:51
  Speaker 3: a little bit better, I'd have more respect.
• 42:53
  Speaker 4: Perfect answer, Perfect answer, Kyle.
• 42:55
  Speaker 2: We know you got to get rolling. We know you're
• 42:57
  Speaker 2: on vacation. Just a couple of sentences reflecting on being
• 43:01
  Speaker 2: the NASCAR cover athlete this year for the twenty twenty
• 43:04
  Speaker 2: six game.
• 43:05
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, no, that's uh, that's cool. I don't know
• 43:07
  Speaker 3: if it's been announced or a thing yet.
• 43:09
  Speaker 2: It is the week that this comes out, so you'll
• 43:12
  Speaker 2: be doing the burnout and stuff like that.
• 43:14
  Speaker 3: Yep. Cool. No, I'm I'm really uh, I don't know.
• 43:17
  Speaker 3: It's an honor. I think anytime you could be the
• 43:19
  Speaker 3: cover of a video game, I think that's really cool.
• 43:21
  Speaker 3: So I'm surprised it's taking this long with success that
• 43:26
  Speaker 3: we've had, but no, it's uh, it's cool when they
• 43:29
  Speaker 3: when they reached out and let me know that they
• 43:32
  Speaker 3: wanted me to be on the cover. It was definitely
• 43:34
  Speaker 3: something I was proud of.
• 43:35
  Speaker 2: So are you worried about a curse? Have you heard
• 43:38
  Speaker 2: of the Madden curse? Like anything you get on the
• 43:40
  Speaker 2: cover of a game, it's kind of I don't want
• 43:42
  Speaker 2: to put that.
• 43:42
  Speaker 3: Out there, but well, I need to go back then
• 43:46
  Speaker 3: and see who's been on the cover and see how
• 43:48
  Speaker 3: the seasons. Then maybe then maybe yeah, I'll get nervous, which, hey,
• 43:52
  Speaker 3: I've been winless for a year, so maybe this will uh,
• 43:56
  Speaker 3: maybe this will be the thing to to to change
• 43:58
  Speaker 3: it and be the opposite of a herse for us year.
• 44:02
  Speaker 4: Byron was on last year's Yeah all right, you put
• 44:10
  Speaker 4: a couple of ladybugs on there, you put this, you
• 44:12
  Speaker 4: put the saw, the right sock on first, extra fast,
• 44:15
  Speaker 4: and the glove. You should be all right. Yeah, I
• 44:17
  Speaker 4: know you had a book.
• 44:18
  Speaker 3: Extra ladybugs might be the thing.
• 44:20
  Speaker 4: That's the book. Maybe a ladybug tattoo. Do you have
• 44:22
  Speaker 4: any tattoos?
• 44:24
  Speaker 3: No tattoos, but we might have.
• 44:26
  Speaker 4: To get some stage all that. Last question, I have
• 44:31
  Speaker 4: very hard hitting question we've talked about with everybody else
• 44:34
  Speaker 4: on this show. What's your opinion on Talladay to Night's
• 44:36
  Speaker 4: friend or foe of the show of Nascar.
• 44:39
  Speaker 3: I mean, I'm I'm like middle of the road on it.
• 44:42
  Speaker 3: I love the movie. It's hilarious, but I will say
• 44:47
  Speaker 3: I don't really think it's done as much positive to
• 44:50
  Speaker 3: our sport as it's done negative. I feel like since
• 44:54
  Speaker 3: that movie, the general public thinks our sport is a
• 44:57
  Speaker 3: joke and they don't take it as serious.
• 45:00
  Speaker 4: So okay, so yeah, kind of in my opinion, but
• 45:06
  Speaker 4: objectively funny movie, objectively funny hurts the sport that you're in.
• 45:11
  Speaker 3: That's what I'm here, I think, I think. So, Okay,
• 45:14
  Speaker 3: all right, Mitch at one time it.
• 45:16
  Speaker 2: Mitch, do you have them before we let him go?
• 45:18
  Speaker 2: Mitch is an avid NASCAR guy.
• 45:19
  Speaker 6: Yeah, Kyle, big fan. One question I have for you.
• 45:22
  Speaker 6: We just had Jesse Love on this past week and
• 45:25
  Speaker 6: he said the biggest starstruck moment he had was when
• 45:28
  Speaker 6: he got to race against you. What is that feeling
• 45:31
  Speaker 6: like when these younger guys are coming up through the
• 45:34
  Speaker 6: sport and they're looking up to you and they're like,
• 45:36
  Speaker 6: holy shit, I'm racing against Kyle Larson? Like, what is
• 45:39
  Speaker 6: that feeling like for you?
• 45:41
  Speaker 3: Well, it makes me feel old for starters, because because
• 45:45
  Speaker 3: I that's it's it's definitely cool to hear about that,
• 45:48
  Speaker 3: but it's because it's not something that I've ever really
• 45:50
  Speaker 3: thought about. You know, I don't really think that. I
• 45:53
  Speaker 3: don't know, I don't think of myself any differently than
• 45:55
  Speaker 3: I did ten years ago. So yeah, I mean, I
• 45:59
  Speaker 3: think it just showed like how young these guys are
• 46:01
  Speaker 3: now coming up and they've probably been watching me their
• 46:04
  Speaker 3: whole life, which is crazy. So because like I said,
• 46:07
  Speaker 3: I'm still only thirty four. But no, it's It's neat
• 46:11
  Speaker 3: because I remember those kind of moments myself. My first
• 46:15
  Speaker 3: Cup start, I remember and I'll never forget, you know,
• 46:17
  Speaker 3: being on the dry intro stage and like Mark Martin
• 46:20
  Speaker 3: came over to me and talked to me, and I
• 46:22
  Speaker 3: look over there and it's Jeff Gordon. There's Dale Earnhard Junior,
• 46:25
  Speaker 3: and Jimmy Johnson and Tony Stewart. Like I had never
• 46:28
  Speaker 3: raced with these guys before. So yeah, it was definitely
• 46:31
  Speaker 3: that was like my only starstruck moment that I feel
• 46:35
  Speaker 3: like I've had. But yeah, it's neat to hear about that.
• 46:39
  Speaker 3: You know, here a guy like Jesse Love, who's you know,
• 46:43
  Speaker 3: at the top of his series say that about me.
• 46:46
  Speaker 3: So pretty cool.
• 46:48
  Speaker 1: I think it's sick. Man.
• 46:48
  Speaker 2: You mentioned all those drivers that inspired you that you
• 46:52
  Speaker 2: saw as like, oh, these are the guys that can't
• 46:54
  Speaker 2: believe I'm getting a race with them. Then you got
• 46:55
  Speaker 2: Jesse Love, the next generation, who grew up around a
• 46:58
  Speaker 2: similar area you and California, coming over and watching you
• 47:02
  Speaker 2: his entire life, and then being on the track and
• 47:04
  Speaker 2: having that moment of like holy shit, like there he is.
• 47:07
  Speaker 2: That's the cat that was from an area that I'm from.
• 47:09
  Speaker 2: And now I'm getting the race against him. That's that's badass, man.
• 47:13
  Speaker 3: Yeah, no, it's definitely neat. It's pretty cool, pretty I
• 47:16
  Speaker 3: think that's what's cool about racing is you can you
• 47:19
  Speaker 3: can race through decades. You know, you can see a
• 47:22
  Speaker 3: lot of different generations of drivers, which is neat.
• 47:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's awesome, Kyle.
• 47:26
  Speaker 4: We appreciate you coming on, man, have a great time
• 47:29
  Speaker 4: out West, get after it. I will be placing a
• 47:32
