  Happy Saturday morning. Everybody got a whole damn
• 0:06
  crowd. Just a bunch of grown men
• 0:09
  screaming and hollering at each other.
• 0:11
  Listen, Wisconsin people, they argue like crazy people.
• 0:21
  They argue, they fight. There they go again.
• 0:31
  Pete, why you guys scream so loud for her?
• 0:35
  Well, we got older. We got to scream loud so you can
• 0:37
  understand. Them.
• 0:38
  Yeah. You want to win the fight, don't
• 0:39
  you? All right, well, Pete, we're
• 0:43
  going to talk a little bit today.
• 0:45
  Got a lady here on the phone. So was not going to do a coffee
• 0:50
  with Kenny again. You know, I, I've been saying
• 0:52
  that every day. I ain't going to do a coffee
• 0:54
  with Kenny. Then somebody says something.
• 0:56
  So every year of this time, the Sprint car people say, can we
• 1:02
  get rid of them damn old modifieds?
• 1:04
  They just look like damn old hobby cars.
• 1:07
  They ruin our track. We want the Sprint cars on the
• 1:10
  track, honey. From the South, that's what,
• 1:14
  sweetheart. The Modifieds think the same
• 1:17
  thing, except it's a little different than what you think.
• 1:21
  What in the hell are they doing with the UMP modifieds racing
• 1:26
  with the Sprint cars? I'm.
• 1:28
  I'm with you. The Sprint cars are the largest
• 1:32
  division in in America. They deserve their very own
• 1:36
  night. I'm a big fan of you know,
• 1:39
  Jennifer and Richard Marshall and last night's winter sunshine
• 1:43
  Tyler Courtney Rico Abreu, Donny.
• 1:46
  Shots shots shots shots, shots. I love the World of Outlaws
• 1:51
  Sprint cars. So the question begs, why do
• 1:55
  they run those nasty old modifieds?
• 1:59
  Why do they run them old mods? They don't cost but $75,000.
• 2:04
  The motors in those old mods, they don't cost but 3035
• 2:08
  thousand. The cars don't run but about
• 2:10
  42,000. So if you're why do they got
• 2:14
  those old modifieds that only cost 75 grand?
• 2:17
  Why do they got those modifieds with the Greatest Show on Earth?
• 2:21
  Why? Why?
• 2:26
  I know why. That's why I'm doing coffee with
• 2:30
  Kenny. Because if they did a World of
• 2:34
  Outlaws show and they really did it, the whole Mother Can Show
• 2:40
  would be over in about an hour and a half.
• 2:42
  Have you ever watched y'all heat races?
• 2:45
  It's like watching paint dry honey drop the green flag second
• 2:52
  heat race. It's the joking in the pit area.
• 2:58
  We all love Sprint car races but everybody in the industry knows
• 3:04
  the real race for the world of outlaw Sprint cars.
• 3:07
  Doesn't happen until the feature the tracks got to get dried out.
• 3:11
  Now listen, we all know that the world of Outlaw Sprint Car guys,
• 3:14
  they they like a real wet track for the A main.
• 3:20
  Last night's finish in the world of Outlaw Sprint Car proved my
• 3:24
  point. Rico Abreu banging the cushion
• 3:27
  coming to the checkered, you know, messes up and sunshine
• 3:31
  rolls at bottom and wins in a barn burner.
• 3:35
  So if you were to only run the world of Outlaw Sprint cars, you
• 3:40
  would have to do it at a track that has very minimal moisture,
• 3:43
  like a like a red clay track, right?
• 3:47
  And then you'd have to have a lot of downtime.
• 3:49
  You'd have to. We have some entertaining,
• 3:52
  because I'm going to say it again, if you were to only run
• 3:55
  the world of outlaw Sprint cars, and you know we know they do it.
• 4:00
  If you were to only run the world of outlaw Sprint cars,
• 4:03
  you'd have to figure it out because the heat races last
• 4:07
  about 3 minutes, right? You're going 1314 seconds a lap,
• 4:13
  8 or 10 laps. Do the math.
• 4:15
  Once again, I'm a smart ass right now.
• 4:18
  I'm going to repeat, I'm a smart ass right now.
• 4:21
  A World of Outlaws Sprint cart. Lap around Volusius. 14 seconds,
• 4:27
  810 lap, heat race. Do the math.
• 4:30
  Your heat races last about 3 minutes each.
• 4:33
  You got 47 cars. So if you were to only run
• 4:36
  Sprint cars, your whole damn show would be done in an hour
• 4:39
  and a half. That's fine with me, but it's
• 4:43
  not fine with the race fans. They want to drink some beer and
• 4:46
  enjoy the night. So until you limit and do a
• 4:53
  invitation only mod deal, it's speed weeks.
• 4:57
  Honey, we're down in Florida, the sun shining.
• 5:01
  Take it easy. Breathe.
• 5:03
  Put a jacket on. Enjoy these 50° nights.
• 5:08
  And that, my friends, is why them old dirty old hobby car
• 5:13
  mods run with the greatest show on earth.
• 5:17
  The world of outlaw Sprint cars respond right here.
• 5:21
  OK, tell me your opinion.
