- 0:03Happy Monday morning, everybody. Finally, the sun is shining.
- 0:11It's gonna be a great week here in St.
- 0:13Louis, MO, and they're already here.
- 0:17There they are, the World of Outlaws.
- 0:21You want them for a breast? Subba Dhabi.
- 0:24They're the best. Johnny Gibson's got some type of
- 0:29saying that's so good. So respond right here.
- 0:33Tell me what Johnny Gibson says. But this is my dear friend Wes
- 0:38Erwin. Wes, he runs the souvenir
- 0:41trailer for the World of Outlaws, and he took the
- 0:43trailer. They're already dropping
- 0:46everything off there at Federated Auto Parts Raceway
- 0:51right here in Peevely, Missouri. So the World of Outlaws are
- 0:55already in town. They got a 2 day show there at
- 0:57Pevely Friday night. The World of Outlaws are with
- 1:01the B mods. That Friday night I'll be at
- 1:04Tri-City Speedway in Granite City, IL just 30 minutes right
- 1:08across the river. Then Saturday back to Pevely for
- 1:12the World of Outlaws with our modified.
- 1:15So what's old? What does old Johnny Gibson say?
- 1:22You want you want the best, You got the best There they are
- 1:26something for breast. That's the world outlaws.
- 1:30I love that. OK, man, we got we got some some
- 1:34Shay. There we go.
- 1:35We got we got the camera a little bit better there.
- 1:37It's a it's a beautiful day. All right, let's go to
- 1:41Darlington right away. So I see.
- 1:46Oh, Jeff Gluck has already got the the pole out.
- 1:52Jeff Gluck says was Darlington a good race?
- 1:56Looks like you all are going to say no.
- 1:59You know why don't you? Because Denny Hamlin won man.
- 2:04How about that pit stop? A nine second pit stop won the
- 2:09race. You got to give it to him guys.
- 2:12I mean, Denny Hamlin comes in 3rd and they pull off a nine
- 2:18second pit stop, puts him in the lead and he wins the race.
- 2:22All right, couple things to say. I watched, I watched the TV
- 2:31ratings come out last week from Martinsville and NASCAR's up 11%
- 2:38compared to last year. There were 2.4 million people
- 2:43watched. That still amazes me when we,
- 2:48you know, like I was at the Battle Hawk football game, the
- 2:53UFL, United States Football League.
- 2:55They they trying to smaller Football League.
- 2:58And it was a good time last night.
- 2:59And you know, there's maybe 30,000 people there.
- 3:02And you know, you go to your local arena, stadium, whatever
- 3:07it is and you're like, man, this place is packed.
- 3:09There's 50,000 people here. You think 2.4 million people
- 3:17watched Martinsville last week. That tells you why NASCAR still
- 3:22doing good. That tells you why those TV
- 3:24companies still pay that kind of money.
- 3:28So I just wanted to add that in there that, you know, these,
- 3:33these neat little poles that Jeff Gluck hooks up, my God,
- 3:38that Jeff Gluck puts up. They're they're fun, but it's
- 3:43just it's really kind of who you like to win or not.
- 3:46And I got to tell you another thing too, if, if Christopher
- 3:50Bell and Denny Hamlin keep this up, we're not going to have very
- 3:53many winners, you know, because Christopher Bell won three in a
- 3:58row, Danny Hamlin's won two in a row, SO2 drivers that won five
- 4:02races. That's pretty wild right there.
- 4:05And then course, Josh Berry won one and so on and so forth.
- 4:09But let's talk about Darlington. I see.
- 4:14I saw all of you squealing after like little babies.
- 4:19Oh my God. You know, some of you exaggerate
- 4:22so bad you are a conspiracy theorist.
- 4:27Well, Bubba Wallace knocked Kyle Larson out of the way, caused
- 4:34the caution so his friend Denny Hamlin could win the race.
- 4:39Yeah, that's it. That's like saying in that
- 4:49people, you're killing me at times.
- 4:52Sometimes you dig in the well so deep, you got me.
- 4:55You know there's an old saying we all love wrestling, right?
- 4:59Woo, Ric Flair. You know why we all love
- 5:02wrestling? Because we know it's fake.
- 5:04They even admit it. They even got a name for it.
- 5:08But my buddy says if you drink enough beer, wrestling gets more
- 5:12fun. And we all love wrestling,
- 5:14right? Because those guys are so
- 5:16talented. Sometimes I think you all think
- 5:21racing is wrestling, right? So you got William Byron leads,
- 5:27what, a record 246 straight laps.
- 5:30You know, the only person to ever lead every single lap in a
- 5:33NASCAR race was Jeff Burton up there at Loudon, New Hampshire.
- 5:37Here we got a guy that was getting ready to be on the edge
- 5:40of history and nothing happened. It was just he didn't pit,
- 5:46right? The other guys pitted early.
- 5:49It's cycled out and they were in the lead.
- 5:53And, you know, even William Byron said it sucked.
- 5:57But, you know, they did not do a good job pitting.
- 6:00They didn't pit right. The strategy was wrong.
- 6:03So the William Byron admits I was our team did it wrong.
- 6:06He said that. So that's that.
- 6:08Then then you see Ryan Blaney, he passes, you know, Tyler
- 6:14Reddick, and he's going to win the race.
- 6:16Ryan Blaney. Ryan Blaney is leading the race
- 6:18with four to go. Reddick scuffs the wall.
- 6:23Kyle Larson is down 174 laps now, right?
- 6:27There's why NASCAR usually parks.
- 6:29You see, that's a new rule that came back.
- 6:31NASCAR said we're going to allow you to fix your car and come
- 6:34back on the track. NASCAR's got that new rule out
- 6:39this year. So Kyle Larson goes to the
- 6:42garage area. He's down 174 laps and he goes
- 6:46back out on the racetrack and Bubba Wallace says, go ahead and
- 6:52pass me. They you've been out of the race
- 6:54for 174 laps. They're fixing your car up.
- 6:58And he passes Bubba and pour Tyler and scuffs the wall.
- 7:05By this time, Bubba dives underneath.
- 7:08So now Bubba's right behind Kyle.
- 7:10Kyle let's out of the gas. Kyle Larson let's out of the gas
- 7:15and Bo Wallace packs him in the ass.
- 7:19There's the caution and right there's the perfect storm.
- 7:23Everybody they come down pit Rd. and Denny Hamlin comes out with
- 7:26a nine second pit stop and that is what won a lot of those
- 7:30NASCAR races years ago. So listen, it's you guys kill
- 7:36me. I mean y'all, you really do.
- 7:39Oh my God. Well, well, for the make the
- 7:42strategy work better, you, you had to know that Denny Hamlin
- 7:45was going to have I mean, your, your conspiracy theory, you, you
- 7:49had to know that the stars were going to line because you, you
- 7:51got had to know that Danny was going to have a nine second pit
- 7:55stop, basically a record-breaking pit.
- 7:57Pit stop 9 SEC. I can remember when my brother
- 8:01Rusty won. Hey, there I go again.
- 8:03My brother Rusty. Hey Wallace, Rusty won Wiltsboro
- 8:08with like a 16 second pit stop. That tells you how how far this
- 8:13sport's come. All right, I just had to get on
- 8:17here and tell you all you was crazy today.
- 8:20So just just funny as all get out.
- 8:25I want to end like this. I saw a handful of people the
- 8:30other day and they say I'll watch the truck races and the
- 8:36Xfinity races because they're better.
- 8:40I'm like, that's awesome, That's awesome, except that you all got
- 8:45a problem with that. I watched the truck racers and
- 8:50the Xfinity racers because they're better.
- 8:54OK, How come there's how come there's nobody watching on TV?
- 8:59Like 900,000 people or less? Cup race gets 2.4 million people
- 9:05that watch. How come there's nobody in the
- 9:08grandstands during those truck races?
- 9:11Maybe like 12 people in the grandstands.
- 9:16If you want to prove me wrong, I want you all to come to
- 9:19Rockingham. OK, Herman Schrader's going to
- 9:24Rockingham. If you want to prove me wrong, I
- 9:27want you to come Friday night to the truck race.
- 9:30I'll see you Friday night next. What is it?
- 9:34What is it? The 17th.
- 9:36The 17th April 17th, Friday night.

- 10:04grandstands, right, Because you tell me all you do.

- 10:43But I'll definitely see you at that truck race.
- 10:46Can't wait to see you at that truck race at Rockingham so you
- 10:49all can prove me wrong. Hey Wallace, I don't watch Cup
- 10:52racing. I only watch trucks in Xfinity
- 10:56because that's where it's at. And I agree.
- 10:59So I'll see you Rockingham. It's a beautiful day.
