  Welcome back to another edition of the Be Forever Cool podcast,
• 0:02
  My Name Is Rex 45. My name is TJ with two wheels
• 0:06
  and coffee. What's going on, man?
• 0:08
  How's things? Things are going good, man, and
• 0:12
  racing is exciting as it can be right now, so I'm happy.
• 0:17
  How about yourself? About the same.
• 0:20
  I was traveling back and forth last week, so that was a little
• 0:22
  chaotic. Sat on a plane a little bit
• 0:24
  longer than I wanted to, needed to type of thing.
• 0:28
  I don't know if it's a thing with American Airlines or or
• 0:30
  what, but I did not have a not even a pleasant experience, much
• 0:35
  as the same and a good experience.
• 0:38
  And it's so funny. You mentioned that people have
• 0:41
  their favorite airlines. It's so funny to hear people's
• 0:43
  stories of which which airlines they love and hate, right?
• 0:51
  I haven't had any bad experience on American Airlines.
• 0:53
  Actually, I did come back from Washington DC with my parents
• 0:59
  couple years ago. We was on like one of the 747
• 1:02
  big airlines. It was like 4 rows across, no
• 1:07
  like 40 rows deep. And yeah, the air circulation
• 1:12
  was terrible. I got off the plane.
• 1:13
  I was sick for like 2-3 weeks. Yeah, I've.
• 1:16
  Noticed on the way down I flew JetBlue and I had a perfect
• 1:18
  flight. So, like, I have no complaints
• 1:20
  about JetBlue, but you know, I hear the stories about them.
• 1:23
  I hear American and Spirit. Yeah, that's funny.
• 1:26
  Same thing I I flew JetBlue on the way up, no problem
• 1:30
  whatsoever. So coming back down, my my
• 1:33
  flight was, you know, it was I I had a connection and both
• 1:36
  flights were delayed. My second flight I sat on the
• 1:39
  runway at well over an hour and next to I had the window seat.
• 1:43
  But I had two big a gentleman next to me and they just kind of
• 1:46
  just took up the middle elbow room and everything room.
• 1:50
  It was just kind of like I I I'm just like this can't be
• 1:53
  happening right now. Yeah, there's one thing sitting
• 1:56
  on the plane for 30 minutes to an hour opposed to waiting to
• 2:01
  board your plane, sitting like we have a seat and charge to get
• 2:05
  elbow room and stuff like that. So I don't know if it's worse to
• 2:08
  be waiting that your plane is delayed, or actually getting on
• 2:12
  feeling satisfied and then waiting.
• 2:16
  I prefer not to be on a plane and let it be delayed.
• 2:19
  Yeah, I guess so. That's how I would.
• 2:21
  I don't. I don't want to be cramped up.
• 2:23
  Yeah. No, no, no, I don't.
• 2:24
  Want it? Let's go.
• 2:25
  Yeah, I don't want to be cramped up and you know, that's that.
• 2:29
  I don't want to be cramped up. So that that's that's the
• 2:33
  biggest part of it all. Yeah, I don't know how it would
• 2:37
  take those long flights where, you know, like going to
• 2:41
  Singapore or something from Boston, like I know some.
• 2:44
  Some people do it like my place. I work just too long.
• 2:48
  Just be on a plane that long. I don't know.
• 2:51
  I mean, obviously it's more relaxing.
• 2:52
  They've probably got more space, but just just being air that
• 2:57
  long cramped with next to somebody, yeah, that's if you.
• 3:00
  Want to get to your fun? You got to take it correct now
• 3:03
  that that is a long time to be on a flight and and having to
• 3:09
  deal with that. So you know it it gave me some
• 3:12
  time to think. So you know I was definitely
• 3:14
  thinking I'm like OK, I I still have to get my bike service.
• 3:19
  You know what I mean? I still have to you know stop
• 3:21
  planning for next year. You know I still got to I still
• 3:24
  have to you know start getting my well, I'm getting my workout
• 3:26
  on. So that is happening.
• 3:28
  So it made me really just think about like OK you know racing is
• 3:31
  going to start relatively in like you know if you down this
• 3:34
  side we start you you you you'll start in December you know and
• 3:39
  and I know Moto GP has been taking up our time so we really
• 3:42
  haven't you know talk about like you know our stuff what we got
• 3:44
  to get doing get done and and and what the folks you know
• 3:49
  what's offseason looks like. I know, like you said, I still
• 3:54
  have to get my bike serviced. I'm still planning on going to
• 3:57
  Super Bike 44, talk to him around 7:00 and you know, so I
• 4:05
  just got to get that set up and get it going.
• 4:08
  I don't know. I'm not.
• 4:09
  I don't want to say I'm procrastinating on it.
• 4:12
  It's more of just making sure my my funds are right.
• 4:15
  You know, this is a hobby, so I just don't want to just throw
• 4:18
  everything into this because it needs to be fixed right away.
• 4:21
  So, but I plan on getting it done pretty soon.
• 4:26
  I also got a street bike, so I got to get that winterized and
• 4:30
  put away because that we can't ride all year up here.
• 4:33
  I mean, some people do, but I do not out of choice, right?
• 4:38
  So and yeah, so I do plan on doing the rounds at Loudon and
• 4:45
  also bull track days that we got going on in New York with one of
• 4:50
  my good friends and trying to plan around couple more track
• 4:53
  days with that as well. So got a pretty much AI want to
• 4:59
  do like the same type of schedule I did this year.
• 5:00
  I had a lot of fun. Nice, nice.
• 5:03
  Yeah, I started to get the bikes serviced already.
• 5:06
  Well, I've done some service on the bikes myself.
• 5:10
  You know, I don't have much to do because, you know, the the
• 5:14
  2015 has just been sitting all year, so thankfully I didn't
• 5:18
  really have to ride it this year.
• 5:19
  So you know, outside of just probably changing the oil on
• 5:22
  that thing, you know it'll it'll it'll sit till next season.
• 5:27
  I've already changed the oil on a 2022 KTM, you know and the
• 5:31
  suspension just got done literally over the summer and
• 5:34
  the engine was out over the summer and so forth.
• 5:36
  So realistically there's not a lot that I have.
• 5:40
  I feel like I have to do there. I didn't you know, this is I've
• 5:43
  only gotten 2 rounds in since the suspend.
• 5:45
  The front suspension has been done and you know, so I'm
• 5:50
  probably. Talking to KTM, Right.
• 5:51
  Talking to KTM, so yeah so not not not much there outside of
• 5:55
  ordering parts, that type of thing and you know like little
• 5:59
  you know screws and stuff that I might need for, for for next
• 6:03
  season, stuff like that. I really don't have much.
• 6:06
  I do have to clean my suits and my helmet.
• 6:09
  So you know I got to take all the patent out of the out of the
• 6:11
  helmet and and and take the inside layer out of the suit,
• 6:14
  make sure suits, make sure that you know that's all cleaned up
• 6:18
  and fresh for next season and stuff like that.
• 6:20
  You know, now's the perfect time to do that.
• 6:22
  So, you know, those kind of maintenance, you know, yeah, I
• 6:26
  ordered some, some hangers from pitbulls.
• 6:29
  So now I got, you know, some more sturdy rods on in the
• 6:33
  trailer and stuff like that. So you know that type of thing.
• 6:37
  You know, replacing stuff that's broken on the trailer.
• 6:40
  You know, So you know that you know, no fun.
• 6:43
  No, nothing fun, but all stuff that has to get done.
• 6:47
  There's always little stuff that has to be replaced, like by
• 6:50
  GoPro, cases and all to buy. You know, new cases because
• 6:53
  those broke, you know, missing pieces from like fairing.
• 6:58
  So I just got to get got a little bin for my street bike.
• 7:02
  So going through that and yeah, just reading up on everything,
• 7:06
  that was just, you just basically beat up this whole
• 7:09
  year pretty much, pretty much. Cords.
• 7:11
  I had some that just tripped out on me and right, you know,
• 7:15
  batteries for for electric tools and stuff like, oh, cordless
• 7:20
  tools and stuff like that. I know I have to upgrade my, my,
• 7:23
  my battery on my ear pump. I kind of got cheap because the
• 7:26
  first battery died and I and I got something that was like half
• 7:29
  the size. And yeah, you know, it's like,
• 7:33
  you know, it's one thing if you just got put it here in your
• 7:36
  bike tires, but it's like you're talking about trailer tires.
• 7:38
  You're talking about the car tires and the truck tires and
• 7:41
  stuff like that. And you know, this thing will
• 7:43
  literally shut off before I can, you know, I can get through
• 7:46
  like, you know, like 3 tires on a trailer, 2 tires on a trailer,
• 7:49
  and then the pump just starts to cut off.
• 7:51
  So I was like, OK, all right, I got to go back to a more
• 7:54
  powerful, robust battery. I must say that me and my good
• 8:00
  friend Josh, you know we go to the track together and we share
• 8:04
  a lot of stuff. So when we unloading, you know,
• 8:10
  sometimes it's a hassle to take all my stuff out and bring it
• 8:13
  home to my house when I can just leave it there, so.
• 8:17
  I'm still at that point where a lot of my stuff is at his house,
• 8:20
  so I'm good. Glad you mentioned that.
• 8:23
  This is a good time to get organized, to see where you left
• 8:26
  off. You know, put everything back in
• 8:28
  order because you know when you're ready to go, you want to
• 8:30
  make sure you're not skirming around at the last minute.
• 8:34
  And for instance, I I wanted to clean my street bike and I just
• 8:37
  realized all my sprays and to clean the bike and all that
• 8:41
  stuff is at his house because I didn't need to take it at the
• 8:44
  time. You'll have to go.
• 8:46
  Over there and kind of like clean out my shed at his house
• 8:49
  to exactly. Back and organize everything
• 8:52
  right it it's tough when you have things that are playing two
• 8:55
  duties. You know what I'm saying?
• 8:56
  You need it for your race bike. You need it for your street bike
• 8:59
  or you need it for home for something else.
• 9:01
  And you know, it could be just be an extension cord or or or or
• 9:05
  tool or whatever the case may be.
• 9:07
  You know that is the downside when you know when.
• 9:09
  When you know when the funds aren't there or you.
• 9:11
  We just choose not to one or for one reason or another.
• 9:15
  And we think that Oh yeah I can just use this here and I can
• 9:17
  just I have for instance my I have a surge protector that I
• 9:21
  use in my office. But then I you take it to the
• 9:24
  track for my tire warmers because it it got USB plugs and
• 9:26
  everything. So I can charge, you know pretty
• 9:29
  much everything I need to charge you know right at the track and
• 9:32
  stuff like that. And it's the same thing last
• 9:34
  time I went to Homestead for the track day I forgot it at home
• 9:37
  and and it was just kind of, I mean obviously I made do.
• 9:39
  I had other, I had other surge protectors.
• 9:42
  But you know, sometimes you don't have that or if you got a,
• 9:44
  you know, if you're getting a, if you're getting a 30 amp
• 9:47
  outlet or 110 outlet from the track, you know, you might,
• 9:50
  yeah. And you don't park close enough
• 9:52
  to a plug. You know, I had to like I do.
• 9:54
  I had to pull my trailer up like like halfway up at Homestead
• 9:59
  just to connect because, I mean, I was more lazy.
• 10:01
  I had more extension cords. So I probably could have
• 10:04
  reached, but it was, you know, for those that got, you know, 50
• 10:07
  amp, 30 amp, 110, you know how you get your stacking up and
• 10:10
  your stacking down to to make connect all these cords.
• 10:13
  So I just end up just moving my truck closer, which meant I was
• 10:15
  further away, you know, from my bike.
• 10:18
  So there's, you know, a lot more walking happening.
• 10:20
  But still, it's like when you have these, you know, pieces and
• 10:25
  parts that that do double duties, it makes it very tough.
• 10:30
  Oh yeah, I mean, and who wants to get double parts?
• 10:33
  I mean, it makes sense at the track because you always need
• 10:36
  extra. But you know, why buy an
• 10:39
  extension cord when you don't need it?
• 10:42
  When you're at home where you can bring it with you, but you
• 10:44
  always get distracted from saying the season is over, so.
• 10:49
  You could have just brought your surge protector to work.
• 10:52
  Like, I don't need this until I go back racing.
• 10:54
  And then he was like, wait, I'm gonna go to Homestead or
• 10:57
  something and you go and you're like, shit, my surge protector,
• 11:00
  does that work? You know, it's not in my box
• 11:02
  where it should be, right on my bike.
• 11:04
  So yeah and and that's the most, that's the most difficult part,
• 11:10
  you know. So anyway folks, I hope everyone
• 11:12
  is you know, getting their self prepared for next year
• 11:16
  themselves, their bikes, all that.
• 11:18
  Oh yes, yeah, there's Turkey coming up too.
• 11:20
  So I guess you're starving yourself a Turkey day and then
• 11:22
  you know, you'll, you'll, you'll hit the gym and continue on the
• 11:26
  workout after. Man, let's get into Moto GP,
• 11:30
  because it's been crazy over there.
• 11:34
  Yeah, what was our predictions last round?
• 11:38
  I said I wanted Maverick up on the podium.
• 11:41
  I wanted, I think, Jorge Martin and I forgot what my third
• 11:45
  choice was, but I don't think I got any of them, no.
• 11:51
  Not not for the full race, but for the Sprint.
• 11:53
  Yeah, Jorge Martin rode very well.
• 11:57
  I mean, if we want to start with Moto GP, it was a pretty
• 12:00
  interesting weekend. I have a question like for this
• 12:03
  Moto GPI always talk about Mark Marquez getting under people's
• 12:10
  skin, always following riders like that.
• 12:12
  That would never end. But there's also other riders
• 12:17
  who put in episodes out there that they don't really share.
• 12:21
  And me personally, I used to always complain about a rider
• 12:26
  saying that. He's always complaining about
• 12:28
  other riders and when he makes a mistake.
• 12:31
  He doesn't feel have any sympathy for it, so finally,
• 12:35
  finally brought to light this weekend where Alicia exploded
• 12:40
  and put his hands on another rider on the track.
• 12:44
  You know, because he was upset, right?
• 12:49
  What do you think about that situation?
• 12:51
  Like, you know, I think that Alicia always reacts wildly, you
• 12:59
  know? When he's when he's out there
• 13:02
  and someone's in his way. But if he crashes and causes a
• 13:05
  time discrepancy and qualifying you know he he doesn't like show
• 13:12
  sympathy that like I'm sorry for you know messing you guys up.
• 13:15
  I I will say he he in the past he's been very apologetic when
• 13:20
  he's made mistakes. I think it was his fault.
• 13:29
  Obviously whoever watched it saw what happened.
• 13:31
  And then even after after Frankie's explanation, it was a
• 13:36
  yellow flag right in front of him, already slowed down.
• 13:40
  So he did the same thing. You know, Elaish probably didn't
• 13:43
  see all that. So you know, he he he he was he
• 13:48
  at the moment he probably had reasons to be upset because he
• 13:51
  he didn't he did things he didn't see but afterwards he had
• 13:55
  to. I mean you know it sounds like
• 13:57
  it was explained to him what happened.
• 13:59
  So I I've only seen that he's taken to social media to
• 14:03
  apologize. I don't know if he talked to
• 14:04
  Frankie yet. You know.
• 14:06
  Morbidelli did a good job keeping his cool and and and and
• 14:09
  not making the situation worse. But that's definitely something
• 14:13
  we've been seeing you, you know. And when the letters came off,
• 14:16
  you know what I'm saying that that that they would have been
• 14:19
  coming to see you, man. You're not you're not just going
• 14:21
  to go put your hands on me, you know on the track and then think
• 14:24
  and then yeah, and I think it's going to be OK afterwards that
• 14:27
  that. You know what I'm saying That
• 14:28
  ain't going to happen because I'm not going to put my hands on
• 14:30
  anybody, period. So you know what I'm saying
• 14:33
  anyway, you know, like that's not that's not a good look you
• 14:38
  should the punish punishment been more severe on one hand
• 14:41
  probably. I mean, this is no different
• 14:43
  than this is not like what Draymond did to Rudy Kobe
• 14:47
  choking him out, but none of that didn't choke him out, but
• 14:50
  he choked him. Right.
• 14:51
  But you know, it's, it's on, it's on a live televised, you
• 14:55
  know, it's on air. It's a it's a it's a it's on air
• 14:58
  and and that doesn't that's not a good look for for you know, I
• 15:01
  I hate to get back to the to the animalistic instance but that's
• 15:05
  not good for your pride. You know what I'm saying?
• 15:06
  Like morbidilly got to eat that. It's like, remember when Kobe
• 15:09
  got punched? He had to eat that.
• 15:10
  You know what I'm saying? Back in the day for a long time,
• 15:13
  you know the dude from New York, I forget his name now, right?
• 15:15
  But like, he, he had to eat that for a long time.
• 15:18
  You know what I'm saying? So it's like, yo, you know, you,
• 15:21
  you, you, you put your hands on me.
• 15:23
  And the whole world that loves Moto GP or maybe even just
• 15:27
  because of the instance hearing about this is is, is not a now,
• 15:31
  now I have to. Now here's the situation that
• 15:33
  I'm going to could be possibly talked about forever, if not a
• 15:37
  long time. You know what I'm saying?
• 15:39
  You look at the Allen Iverson where we talking about practice
• 15:41
  and all this stuff. This is one of those things
• 15:42
  like, yo, you put hands on me, bro, the.
• 15:46
  Funny thing is a bit more of a deadly mentioned is like it was
• 15:49
  a slap in the face because they were like they gave him six grid
• 15:53
  positions as right next to me put.
• 15:55
  Him right next to me, he's like, come on, like like how much
• 16:01
  exactly. It's like we're supposed to put
• 16:03
  down put away our our our instincts, our survival
• 16:07
  instincts and and and just be and just eat the humble pie and
• 16:11
  more of the deli. You know, I'm saying like I
• 16:15
  would have been seeing him after the race that I'm just letting
• 16:18
  you know that now I would have been.
• 16:19
  I've been coming to see you. I might have got my butt whooped
• 16:22
  and all that, but I still would have been coming to see you.
• 16:24
  That's like you. You're not.
• 16:26
  Nah, I mean, it ain't. It ain't happening.
• 16:28
  You know what I'm saying? Because that that's that's a
• 16:30
  different, that's a different kind of disrespect.
• 16:31
  Now, you know what I'm saying? Because now you feel like you
• 16:34
  you can just put your hands on me.
• 16:36
  Nah, you can't do that. Yeah, I think Lace thinks he's
• 16:41
  think he's just like think he's on another level.
• 16:43
  Mentally, I don't know. Well, I I I got a when it.
• 16:46
  Comes to qualifying and stuff like that.
• 16:48
  He's just right. That's a.
• 16:50
  Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. This is an instance where you
• 16:53
  know in the in in you know and again I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll
• 16:57
  circle back to Draymond Green. This is the instance where you
• 17:00
  know you can cuss at your your your box and you can you know
• 17:03
  you can you can yell at your mechanics and stuff like that
• 17:06
  and all that and you can say it's all in the heat of moment
• 17:08
  and all that stuff and all that. But you know eventually it it it
• 17:13
  it, there's it could be a problem right.
• 17:16
  There's something like with with with with with dude from from
• 17:20
  the Warriors. The Draymond Green.
• 17:22
  There's there's a there's something going on there.
• 17:26
  You know what I'm saying? Yeah that's that's what I'm
• 17:28
  saying. There's there's there's
• 17:29
  definitely something going on and and and he's been like you
• 17:31
  didn't need to choke dude out like that and and Rudy Gobert he
• 17:35
  didn't he he he put his hands around clay like that just to
• 17:39
  just to protect just to stop it from happening not to hurt him.
• 17:42
  There was no he just put his hands around him and you've seen
• 17:46
  you know LeBron James do that to Chris Paul.
• 17:48
  When Chris Paul and Rondo got into it and they were on a
• 17:50
  separate team. Rondo was on the same team as
• 17:52
  LeBron, but LeBron put his hand around Chris Paul and nobody
• 17:55
  choked out LeBron. But.
• 17:58
  They got reps and coaches for but you know Draymond's
• 18:02
  Draymond, you know what I'm saying?
• 18:03
  So like Elash, like like we all get upset.
• 18:06
  Don't get me wrong. We all like this.
• 18:08
  Many times I wanted, I came in, I wanted to throw my helmet
• 18:11
  across the room or kick the bike over.
• 18:13
  When I was on BMX, like I couldn't tricks didn't work out
• 18:16
  for ices. Just the bike could just go
• 18:17
  sending. You know what I'm saying?
• 18:19
  It's it's so it's like it's easy to come in here, come in.
• 18:22
  We got to see what you do in life.
• 18:23
  It's easy to be pissed off and and to come in and just want to
• 18:27
  break stuff or or or whatever the case may be but you know I I
• 18:32
  would have been you've been better off kicking your
• 18:34
  motorcycle than putting your hands on on on on Frankie like
• 18:37
  that and and and and if you're upset with your riding and this
• 18:40
  is and you know we talked about you know track day the other day
• 18:44
  and different riders and stuff like that and and and having the
• 18:47
  proper ways to to practice and stuff like that.
• 18:50
  I mean outside of organizing it like how Disney does it, here's
• 18:54
  your time slot. You keep this much space between
• 18:56
  the next rider and go out there you're going to have these
• 18:59
  altercation where you where you come in on a rider and and and
• 19:02
  that rider is not doing it deliberately you know what I'm
• 19:05
  saying. But you you're going to have
• 19:06
  these things and and we see it on track all the time.
• 19:09
  You know what I'm saying? So that that that's going to
• 19:11
  happen. That's why I don't understand
• 19:14
  why they think some, right? Well, maybe, I don't know.
• 19:18
  There's a racing line you shouldn't be on, but I don't
• 19:20
  understand why these riders think that they're deliberately
• 19:24
  trying to get in their way, you know, like everyone's coming up
• 19:27
  on them so quick. But my observation on this is
• 19:30
  that the the round before Alicia had a terrible weekend where he
• 19:35
  crashed four times in one session.
• 19:38
  He also crashed out of the GP race and going into this
• 19:43
  weekend, which is one week after, you know, he's probably.
• 19:47
  Mentally trying to make sure he gets everything perfect and I
• 19:50
  don't know how. Frankie must have just sparked
• 19:53
  in somehow, right? It's not having gotten going
• 19:56
  time must have been running out. We got to check that again.
• 19:59
  But. Yeah, no, it's cool.
• 20:01
  Yeah definitely the icing on a cake right for for for for for
• 20:06
  Alicia Alicia Spagro definitely because I suspect he thought he
• 20:10
  was going to have a better year than he did.
• 20:12
  You know you know especially the way last year ended and stuff
• 20:15
  like that and and I think he was top four right you know at some
• 20:19
  point and and you know I saw I think that and then the season
• 20:23
  coming touches and he got he probably has one more year in
• 20:26
  Moto GP here he said it himself. So 35, What is it, 30, 3434.
• 20:33
  So, yeah, yeah, yeah. So end of the end of next and
• 20:35
  end of the end of next year's contract and and this.
• 20:37
  There's a lot, you know, we haven't even touched on all
• 20:39
  these other writers that are looking for work yet.
• 20:41
  So. So I I got to assume that's a
• 20:45
  lot of frustration. Frustration from the whole
• 20:49
  season. But nonetheless, you know what
• 20:51
  I'm saying? Like, you know and and you know
• 20:53
  and and this is Valentina Rossi's boy.
• 20:55
  So it's like like come on man. Like they like you know that I
• 20:59
  don't you know that I don't think you know VR46 Academy.
• 21:02
  They roll deep. So you know what I'm saying I
• 21:06
  don't know if you want to be messing with them like that you
• 21:08
  know. But you know yeah I don't know
• 21:11
  if the six the 6th and he, well he retired.
• 21:14
  He crashed too, right. Did he didn't he crash or he
• 21:17
  retired from the race he retired?
• 21:19
  He retired. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 21:20
  Now that's when I was just like he wasn't just like F this.
• 21:24
  They didn't really explain well. I, I, I I think he he broke a he
• 21:28
  has a bone that's either fractured or broken and and and
• 21:32
  so yeah. Yeah yeah.
• 21:34
  So you know so it it's it's unfortunate all around.
• 21:38
  But yeah no no don't don't put your hands on other riders and
• 21:41
  expect that nothing's going to happen to you.
• 21:43
  I'm sorry. Don't put your hands on anybody.
• 21:45
  I don't think anything's going to.
• 21:47
  Happen has a new job upcoming too so it's not like jobless in
• 21:51
  the year because I'm sure if he was he'd party but that's the
• 21:55
  but at the same. Yeah, but at the.
• 21:56
  I don't know if you watched Moto America when Petrucci went, but
• 22:03
  there was a time where he was having an out with a couple of
• 22:07
  riders, and when they were doing their practice starts, he drove
• 22:09
  in between, I think Jake Gonye. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
• 22:14
  yeah, yeah. Yeah.
• 22:15
  Yeah, yeah. Turned around and gave him the
• 22:16
  finger. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 22:17
  Like, like who? What are you doing?
• 22:21
  You know, so yeah, no, it's it's, look, it's a tough sport,
• 22:26
  right? Life is tough.
• 22:27
  You know, it's it. I get all that, right?
• 22:29
  And and so there's a there's a bit of grit that comes with it.
• 22:32
  But you know, if you're going to try to bully somebody, you're
• 22:37
  going to get it back. You know what I'm saying?
• 22:38
  You're going to get it back. So you know, it is not, you know
• 22:42
  it. It's not my the world is not my
• 22:44
  stomping ground to for me to for for everybody to just move out
• 22:47
  the way and let me do what I want.
• 22:49
  And I don't think anyone has that.
• 22:51
  And and if anybody thinks they have that the world have shown
• 22:55
  us a gazillion times that you don't.
• 22:57
  You know what I'm saying you don't like?
• 22:58
  You could you might be able to bully a few people and and but
• 23:01
  over the course of time that's not going to happen.
• 23:05
  So that's my two cents. I don't want I don't want to
• 23:07
  turn this motorcycle show into a into a different kind of show.
• 23:10
  But no they they that it's I'm not a fan of any kind of
• 23:13
  bullying whatsoever. So yeah.
• 23:16
  We just go on ride and have fun. Compete, yeah that that that's
• 23:19
  it. But let let let's get to to the
• 23:22
  to the the. There's there's a lot to really
• 23:26
  talk about so we can talk about voter 3 first 'cause you know
• 23:31
  that you know Jeremy Masia winning the title in in in in I
• 23:39
  I what? I don't know.
• 23:40
  If I look they they they, they they they, they they they they
• 23:44
  were jacking up. What's his name?
• 23:47
  What is it? I got to get his name now #71 in
• 23:51
  it's in. 2nd place for points, not Osaka.
• 23:56
  I want to say it's not Osaka, it's I'll look up his name.
• 24:00
  But yeah, no, I that that was definitely ridiculous.
• 24:07
  The race like he he got, he got pushed around a lot.
• 24:14
  He got pushed around a lot in that, in that in that Moto 3
• 24:16
  race, he definitely got pushed around a lot.
• 24:20
  Massey's Ride teammate, definitely.
• 24:25
  I I don't want to say do his did his job, but did his job.
• 24:28
  But that was very ugly, the way he.
• 24:30
  Yeah, yeah, even Masia was Masia twice because he ran him out
• 24:34
  wide twice. Yeah.
• 24:35
  OK. That's what I'm thinking of.
• 24:36
  OK. So yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 24:37
  He ran him out wide. He ran him out wide twice.
• 24:40
  And you know I'm saying and then his teammate got in the way and
• 24:43
  it made him drop back all those places and give him credit
• 24:46
  because he fought all the way back up there.
• 24:47
  And I know there's no rules against that kind of stuff.
• 24:50
  But even though Masia did get a conduct warning rule because it
• 24:53
  was just like bro, you just pushed me out here two times.
• 24:56
  So that way I'm like 10 place down so.
• 24:59
  I did that on purpose, like the second time they like that.
• 25:02
  Should have been more, Yeah. I I don't.
• 25:03
  I don't, I don't. I don't like that kind of
• 25:05
  victory. Like beat me straight up, you
• 25:07
  know what I'm saying? Beat me straight up.
• 25:08
  Like don't. Like both times I'm the only
• 25:10
  rider you you pushed out like that.
• 25:12
  You know what I'm saying? And and and you know he went
• 25:17
  from. Like first to like 5th?
• 25:19
  Oh yeah, he got. He went all the way down to like
• 25:21
  10th at one time. Oh. 10th Yeah.
• 25:24
  I mean each time and they they they both work their way back up
• 25:27
  to the front. It's just incredible how much
• 25:30
  draft they can pull themselves back to the front.
• 25:32
  But after the second time, man, I'm like, dude, that is obvious.
• 25:36
  Yeah, dude, beyond obvious. So I was definitely, you know,
• 25:40
  I'm happy for him that he won, 'cause it's been a long time
• 25:43
  coming, you know what I'm saying?
• 25:45
  But in that fashion it it it's it's a little dirty.
• 25:50
  I must say. It's a little dirty, you know
• 25:52
  what I'm saying? It's not.
• 25:53
  That was not a clean win. What, What?
• 25:55
  What? Whatsoever.
• 25:56
  Yeah, so. Your boy, aren't you started on
• 26:03
  the in the front of the pack and had a double long lap penalty
• 26:07
  right? And almost won that and almost
• 26:10
  won that. And almost like, how'd you like
• 26:13
  his second time going around the long life penalty He was in like
• 26:16
  20 something. Sasaki.
• 26:18
  Sasaki is his last name. Everybody.
• 26:20
  Was fighting in the front, Masiya and Sasaki and all those,
• 26:23
  like he was just cruising on back and I was.
• 26:25
  I was kind of ruined for him as well.
• 26:26
  But yeah that that that race was for him to win that way.
• 26:31
  I mean, I've, like I said, I've never.
• 26:34
  Rub paint with a biker. I mean, I've gotten really
• 26:36
  close, but right. You can't imagine just trying to
• 26:38
  bump someone off of a line just to get a couple seconds
• 26:41
  advantage like right? And I get it.
• 26:42
  It's very kind throat first time.
• 26:44
  Being like, accidental, right? Yeah.
• 26:46
  Yeah, 2. Times a row in the same corner?
• 26:48
  No way. Right.
• 26:49
  And again, that might have been another situation where you
• 26:52
  know, I might have had to stop by and say a couple of things
• 26:54
  too. And you know and I get these
• 26:56
  commentators that you know they try to be as PC as can be and
• 26:59
  and and and you know. But no that that that was a
• 27:02
  couple of dirty moves to to to do that and like I said just
• 27:05
  like you you you you won. Yeah.
• 27:10
  But those kind of tactics you know it does kind of it's it's
• 27:15
  kind of like you know Casey Stoner and and Rossi at Laguna
• 27:19
  Seca. You know Casey Stoner.
• 27:21
  You know Rossi won the race but you know Casey Stoner was just
• 27:24
  like he was breaking you know slowing me down at the at the
• 27:27
  you know at the wrong parts So I can you know lose my rhythm and
• 27:30
  stuff What Latin. It's just like OK is this how
• 27:32
  we're playing are we going to play like this you know type of
• 27:34
  thing you know. You know, so it's one of those
• 27:37
  things, like, you know, if if Masia didn't do those two
• 27:42
  things, it could have been going to Valencia.
• 27:46
  Because Sasaki was fast, It was fast.
• 27:49
  Right. He was fast, you know what I'm
• 27:51
  saying? He was.
• 27:51
  At one point where he had a chance, it was like 21 or 24
• 27:55
  points away. And then it just drifted back
• 27:58
  and it was just yeah and it yeah, you know.
• 28:00
  So it was kind of sad to see. Yeah.
• 28:02
  So you know I don't you know I'm that's why I'm not as excited
• 28:06
  for him. I don't like the fashion in
• 28:07
  which it happened so it's great that he won.
• 28:10
  He's moving to Moto 2 he's been in Moto 3 for a long time So
• 28:14
  that that's that's really good for him.
• 28:15
  But like you know you don't want to win like that.
• 28:18
  You know what I'm saying And and and and and that's you know
• 28:21
  that's you know that's my two cents Moto 2 you know you know
• 28:28
  what what what can we say about you know Fermi and.
• 28:34
  Like I said, I'm in room for my boy Eric Connett all year to get
• 28:38
  a damn podium went. But that boy is just too good,
• 28:43
  man. Yeah, you know, I'll, I'll, I'll
• 28:47
  go ahead. No, no, I'm saying he's just too
• 28:49
  good. Like he just let him lead for
• 28:52
  like 10 laps and he's just like, all right, I'll take over.
• 28:55
  Just took off and that was it. That was it.
• 29:00
  That. That's a that's a person who
• 29:02
  definitely. You know, deserves a higher seat
• 29:06
  if if available. But you know, yeah, if
• 29:09
  available, but you know, I saw one of the KTM writers you know,
• 29:15
  posted that you know Rossi should sign the Gian Antonio
• 29:20
  after his performance. And we still haven't gotten to
• 29:22
  Moto GP yet, but we're talking about Fermi because he's one of
• 29:25
  the guys that they've talked about taking.
• 29:27
  If if Luke Marini goes to Honda next year, then it looks like
• 29:32
  Fermi may come up. Maybe you know one of these
• 29:36
  other guys, I might come up from Moto 2, but you know, so it he
• 29:42
  to me, Fermi Al the Gia was quicker and was a bet to me was
• 29:48
  a better rider than Pedro. Like I had mentioned before,
• 29:51
  when Pedro was a Moto 3 and he was in the European super bike,
• 29:54
  he was already on a Moto 2 Honda engine bike and he was kicking
• 29:59
  butt in European super bike in the European Super Sport and our
• 30:03
  Moto 2. And for whatever it like I said
• 30:07
  when he came into Moto, when he came into Moto 2 the first year
• 30:10
  he had some bad accidents and and I and I think that kind of
• 30:13
  shook his nerve a little bit. But it seems like at this point
• 30:17
  of time, you know if he stays in Moto 2 next year, you know who's
• 30:21
  going to beat him. Maybe Celestine maybe on that on
• 30:25
  that on the Kate on on with the Akiowa team.
• 30:29
  I don't, I don't. I don't know.
• 30:30
  I mean you know, not not to say I'm giving up on Kinet, not to
• 30:37
  say I'm giving up on them. But you know what I'm saying?
• 30:43
  You know it's look man at that level it it's you know we're
• 30:48
  talking about slim slim margins. So there's there's there's
• 30:53
  absolutely you know not much we can do about that but Aaron
• 30:56
  Connect got a good shot you know Roberts got a good shot as well.
• 31:00
  Dixon has a good shot. Aquilino's probably going to
• 31:04
  have a good shot but Fermi's the guy that's going to be the
• 31:07
  front. Because if if he continues to do
• 31:10
  what he did the last few rounds, I mean if he wins tomorrow
• 31:12
  before in a row he's the he's the I think he's the 4th rider
• 31:16
  to to to win three in a row in Moto 2.
• 31:20
  So yeah yeah so it's you know it's it's pretty impressive and
• 31:25
  if you win one more he may be I don't I don't know what the
• 31:27
  stats are on that but you know it's going to it's going to be
• 31:30
  very impressive. So if he continues that into
• 31:32
  next season it's going to be very hard you know to to to see
• 31:37
  that when these other guys are going to win.
• 31:39
  But it's motor, It's motor securation.
• 31:41
  Anything can happen. That is true, I do want to shout
• 31:44
  out. Joe Roberts for getting pole
• 31:47
  You're right. Oh, no doubt.
• 31:48
  No doubt. American on pole, no doubt.
• 31:50
  Yes, yes, definitely pretty. Pretty nice to see, no?
• 31:55
  Especially at this. Type of fast track, right?
• 31:57
  Yeah, you know, and super. Happy to get that, exactly.
• 32:00
  You know what I'm saying? Because it's it's tough.
• 32:01
  These guys have been in in in in Moto 2 for a while.
• 32:04
  Him and you know, Jake Dixon and some of these guys that you know
• 32:07
  been in there for five years and four years and stuff like 6
• 32:10
  years. And you know, fortunate for him,
• 32:13
  he's won some champ. He's won some title.
• 32:15
  He's won some races as well. So it's not you know the end of
• 32:19
  the world. But you know, you know you look
• 32:21
  at the Pedros and some of these other guys that make it look
• 32:23
  easy and then you then, you know, you look at, you know,
• 32:25
  Roberts and and you know, I mean even Connects had, you know, 12,
• 32:31
  you know, podiums all second places or maybe 14-2, two third
• 32:35
  in the rest of all second place. I mean even Roberts don't have
• 32:39
  that on his resume. You know what I'm saying?
• 32:41
  So it it is, it's very tricky. But I do hope that you know next
• 32:46
  year when he goes back to the American racing team, you know
• 32:49
  it's put together and it has a really good package because even
• 32:52
  Ramirez is doing really well on on on on the the the American
• 32:56
  team, you know, especially in qualifying and stuff like that
• 33:00
  he's he's he's getting up there. It it might not show in the
• 33:03
  races, but you know that that team is is is they could make a
• 33:06
  run, not necessarily for a championship, you know they
• 33:10
  could be a top ten team next year.
• 33:13
  Yeah, then that'll be a good sight to see for sure.
• 33:17
  I mean, I mean they definitely, I'm sure they you know, when you
• 33:20
  when the season's coming to an end, you know you.
• 33:23
  Kind of out of it. You kind of already prepare
• 33:25
  yourself for the next year in a way.
• 33:27
  You still try to finish everything out.
• 33:31
  So I think they're going to be looking forward to starting off
• 33:33
  strong. So you know you have to start
• 33:35
  off strong because when it comes down to this point, you'd be
• 33:37
  like, damn, I should have. You don't want to think that
• 33:40
  they should have could have would have exactly.
• 33:42
  No you do not. You just want to get out there
• 33:44
  and and and do do do what? Do what you got to do.
• 33:47
  So, so look best. At at every race, so you you can
• 33:50
  at least. Satisfy yourself within the year
• 33:52
  that you gave it. Y'all, no doubt.
• 33:54
  So let's get into Moto GP, man. I mean the Sprint and and the
• 33:58
  main race. You know, I it was nice that I
• 34:03
  didn't have to get up at 3:00 in the morning to stop watching it.
• 34:06
  Just actually came on at a perfect time of day, you know
• 34:11
  10:00 AM, 11/12 was the Sprint and I was like wow, this is
• 34:15
  great. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 34:15
  No, it was it was perfect. It's like I, I let's do this
• 34:18
  every round. You know what I mean?
• 34:20
  So, so I have to say that was nice.
• 34:23
  I didn't even though you know shout out to Luca Marini setting
• 34:26
  the the lap record and getting poll you know impressive
• 34:30
  impressive. You know it's you know it it
• 34:34
  it's one of those things where if you look at Mark Marquez and
• 34:37
  Alex Marquez and then you look at you know Luca Marini and and
• 34:43
  Valentina Rossi. You know the siblings and
• 34:45
  whatnot. You know Mark Mark Alex Marquez
• 34:48
  has overall you know have somewhat of a you know when you
• 34:52
  have your brother that's like you know your brother's Mark
• 34:55
  Marquez your brother's Valentina Rossi you brought you know your
• 34:58
  your your dad is Michael Jordan. You know when you when you got,
• 35:00
  you know Tiger Woods right when you got these great individuals
• 35:03
  and and they're really great at this sport.
• 35:06
  You know Marini, you know I never said it but you know it's
• 35:10
  it's you know it's it's been talk of like well you know he's
• 35:13
  Rossi's brother and this and that but like he's holding his
• 35:17
  own. You know what I'm saying?
• 35:18
  And and and and that's, you know, and that's a lot of
• 35:21
  pressure because he's always compared to his brother not
• 35:24
  necessarily like a digen Antonio on these other guys.
• 35:27
  He's always like when you're when your brother or your father
• 35:29
  or your mother is, is, is, is, is, is, is ridiculous with their
• 35:32
  skills you're going to be compared to them.
• 35:35
  You know what I'm saying? And so he's just been doing it
• 35:37
  quietly, quietly, quietly. And you know, so shout out for
• 35:41
  him for getting that, that being on the podium twice.
• 35:46
  You know what I mean? And and and and setting that
• 35:48
  pole because everybody was looking at, not him, you know
• 35:52
  what I'm saying? They were looking at everybody
• 35:54
  else. You know what I'm saying?
• 35:56
  We haven't heard his name that much.
• 35:58
  I mean, we heard his name, but you know, and up in the front as
• 36:01
  much as until lately. Yeah, even bizeki like.
• 36:05
  Like you said, it's it's, it's crazy to, you know, to hold up
• 36:10
  the, that type of, you know, pressure, knowing who's your
• 36:14
  brother, 'cause like I can say you ride like Rossi, you know,
• 36:20
  and everyone's. Yes, I do.
• 36:21
  Yes, I do, Rossi. Look at him go, you know, and
• 36:24
  then you can. Pull that end of the stick, but
• 36:27
  to be a sibling and everyone has an expectation on you already
• 36:32
  And yeah, that's. And that was congratulations to
• 36:36
  get a A lap record and pull as well.
• 36:38
  Yeah no doubt. So I was very excited.
• 36:41
  I I mean it and and you know I I felt for him because but Zeki
• 36:46
  was doing so well you know what I'm saying and as a rookie and
• 36:49
  when he came out he was kind of quiet as a not quiet but you
• 36:53
  know similar to Jen Antonio you know what I'm saying kind of
• 36:55
  similar you know what I'm saying and and so you know and and he's
• 36:59
  he he's I think he's had some polls before and finished on the
• 37:01
  podium before for sure but still so you know for him to do that
• 37:06
  to go out there and ride well to battle with the top guys and you
• 37:10
  know and possibly might become a Honda factory rider for 2024.
• 37:15
  You know that and is and and and it's one of those things like if
• 37:18
  people are saying ah why is he getting it blah blah blah.
• 37:21
  He answered that this weekend like anybody had any doubt, you
• 37:24
  know. And we always talk about Ducati,
• 37:29
  Ducati, Ducati, Ducati, Ducati. But some reason, something
• 37:33
  inside me told me there was always going to be.
• 37:35
  I mean, there's no beef right now, but something told me that,
• 37:40
  yeah, them all finishing up front.
• 37:42
  Is good and all, but there has to be some type of clash
• 37:45
  somewhere else. So you think?
• 37:48
  I think we? Kind of seen a hint of that this
• 37:50
  this race weekend 0 what? What do you mean with who you
• 37:53
  Speaking of Pete? No, what I mean by that is you
• 37:57
  know Pekko is trying to win it and you know as teammates you
• 38:01
  protect your your brand like another Ducati teammate will try
• 38:07
  to hold off Pekko and. Digiantonio, Fabio.
• 38:13
  He had every right, you know what I'm saying?
• 38:15
  Because there's never a job next year.
• 38:17
  But he was really on Pekko's ass the whole race.
• 38:20
  Yeah, yeah. And.
• 38:23
  And they were saying it like they like they he got a a
• 38:28
  mapping 8. You know, I guess that was
• 38:31
  made-up by you mentioned before with a couple of riders years
• 38:33
  ago, but Lorenzo and Devicioso? Just just hold back.
• 38:39
  You know, take this second place, right?
• 38:43
  And they were like, he didn't even look at the board.
• 38:45
  I don't know if he looked, but I'm sure he saw it right.
• 38:47
  Yeah, I don't know if he saw it or not.
• 38:49
  And like I said, so Ducatis never really came out his.
• 38:54
  Helmet. Yeah.
• 38:55
  Ducatis never really came out and said what Mapping 8 is, but
• 38:59
  it's interesting because his answer and I believe the crew
• 39:02
  chief, were the same. And so, you know, like you say,
• 39:09
  in a situation where I don't have a job next year, here's my
• 39:11
  only chance to win a Moto GP race.
• 39:14
  And you know, regardless, Ducati is going to win the world title
• 39:18
  regardless, right? So it's just preference who you
• 39:21
  want as a rider. Obviously Ducati wants their
• 39:24
  factory team to win because it's the factory team, you know what
• 39:27
  I'm saying? But are they going to lose?
• 39:28
  Are they going to, are they going to be disappointed if if
• 39:31
  if if Martine won or or Bazecki won, it's still Ducati, you
• 39:36
  know, the the, the, the, the six bikes, the first six bikes on
• 39:40
  the grid, you know what I'm saying?
• 39:42
  So. Like, no, sorry, no, go ahead.
• 39:46
  I was saying it's more of to my eyes more of like who's in
• 39:50
  contention, like he has no, like he he, they didn't want any
• 39:55
  accidents basically him being so close where the point stands,
• 39:59
  you know and it almost. It almost came down to an
• 40:03
  accident, I'd say. Right.
• 40:04
  No, it it did. But that was not that would have
• 40:06
  been all on Pekko's fault if if that happened.
• 40:09
  You know what I mean? Because because he because he
• 40:11
  definitely passed them clean and did all the right things.
• 40:14
  And you know Pekko's already on record saying he doesn't want
• 40:16
  team water. He wants to win straight up
• 40:19
  because they Ducati could have just said that from the jump
• 40:22
  with Martine and him like y'all stand down.
• 40:25
  You do what you do. But Pekko's winning.
• 40:28
  They could they could say that right.
• 40:29
  What what Martine going to do? He don't have to fall in line
• 40:32
  because he's no different. He would be no different than
• 40:35
  than the Gian Antonio Network regards.
• 40:36
  So if Ducati wanted him Pekko to walk away that with the thing
• 40:42
  they can easily just be like now, you know, I will say this
• 40:46
  and I usually don't another conspiracy theorist or anything,
• 40:50
  but it's suspicious that you know he had tired troubles, very
• 40:55
  suspicious. But they don't make ties.
• 40:59
  So all I do know is did she save the season?
• 41:07
  Yeah, I. Think so, Right.
• 41:10
  Right. Because yeah, because Marquez,
• 41:12
  Marquez did pass them, so he did even lose 5 more whatever points
• 41:17
  he lost. So he did.
• 41:18
  Look. Mark Marquez, right.
• 41:20
  So he, he did pass O'Hare at the end.
• 41:22
  So he didn't even fall further back.
• 41:25
  So if, if, if. My team if.
• 41:27
  If. Pekko had one, he would have
• 41:30
  five more points, which is 25, but it still wouldn't be.
• 41:35
  You know what I mean it, you know, essentially they're going
• 41:39
  to have to kidnap Pekko for him not to win it.
• 41:44
  You know what I'm saying? They got they're going to be,
• 41:46
  they're going to have to be something like that to happen
• 41:47
  because I suspect if he finishes in the top 6IN either race, he
• 41:52
  probably wins. Oh yeah, I mean, it's going to
• 41:56
  be a good. I just like to see.
• 41:57
  I mean, we had two rounds ago our Moto 2 champion, this past
• 42:03
  round we had our Moto 3 champion and then final round the year
• 42:08
  we're going to get to see, you know, who's if we're going to be
• 42:13
  defending champions or a new one.
• 42:15
  No doubt. No doubt.
• 42:17
  One more round of Go man. I'm looking forward to it.
• 42:20
  Valencia is one of my favorite tracks on the Moto GP video
• 42:23
  game. So I I I almost know that thing
• 42:26
  like the back of my my my my hand and and it's a fun track
• 42:30
  and so I'm looking forward to it.
• 42:33
  I I can't wait to see. I I will say that you know I I
• 42:38
  do hope that Digia gets the same Moto GP.
• 42:41
  I I really, there's only one seat available which is if if
• 42:45
  Luca goes to Honda then, you know, hopefully Rossi and them
• 42:50
  guys would be like you know, let's give this guy a chance.
• 42:54
  You know what I'm saying because you look at you know the
• 42:58
  Martins, you look at even Petco, you look at Bastianini, all
• 43:04
  these guys came on strong on the end of this season when they
• 43:07
  were on the the year the older bike, right.
• 43:10
  They all came on strong at the end of the season and and and
• 43:12
  which catapulted them into the next season for the most part,
• 43:15
  right. So realistically.
• 43:17
  You know do you. I don't know.
• 43:18
  Do you do you want you know Bastianini, Martin Bizzacki,
• 43:25
  Pekko. You want those guys all fighting
• 43:26
  for titles next year. Mark Marquez.
• 43:28
  Alex Marquez. You know it it it's kind of like
• 43:33
  you know yeah I I, I hope that he's he gets to stay in in in
• 43:37
  Moto GP for one year. If not I think he'll go to World
• 43:39
  Super Bike. There's a couple more seats out
• 43:41
  there that's waiting and I think there's even a couple of Ducati
• 43:44
  seats out there, satellite team, so.
• 43:48
  You know, Ducati has to appreciate what he's doing.
• 43:50
  So, well, for sure. I know.
• 43:53
  I know he's going to give it his all this, this last round too.
• 43:56
  So. And it's funny that you say
• 43:59
  Valencia is your favorite track. I mean, I like playing the video
• 44:03
  games too. I I like Valencia, but it's not
• 44:05
  my favorite. But it's.
• 44:07
  Not my favorite favorite, but one of them.
• 44:09
  One of them. Oh yeah, I know what you mean.
• 44:11
  But I do know the track, you know, kind of like the back of
• 44:13
  my hand as well. And I just get upset a little
• 44:17
  bit because I wish we had tracks, video games where we can
• 44:20
  just go race at and still play on, you know?
• 44:25
  OK, well, listen, man, we just, we just got to get our money up
• 44:27
  and then, you know, we'll be everywhere.
• 44:28
  I'll have to, I'll have to ride 5 till we put Loudon on on that
• 44:32
  game. No, no, no, no doubt.
• 44:35
  Listen, man, I got to say this, I I might be getting the APS now
• 44:39
  after, after, after this past week.
• 44:42
  That's right. I mean it's it's already
• 44:45
  visited. Had to try it out, yeah.
• 44:46
  It's already in my cart, so do want to mention one thing
• 44:52
  though, because we talked about this couple season episodes ago.
• 44:57
  Nathan Betancourt. Shout out to Nathan finally gets
• 45:00
  his chance to 13 year old local New England.
• 45:06
  England rider race with his Death.
• 45:07
  Race with his death he's he's going to dissipate Valencia in
• 45:14
  the mini Cup. So good luck to him and I know I
• 45:17
  chat with his dad before at the track few times not really Nate
• 45:21
  but have chat with Nate like through Instagram because
• 45:24
  somehow when the photographer just takes pictures our pictures
• 45:28
  get mixed up a little bit because he's one number off of
• 45:31
  me. I.
• 45:32
  Got you. So he's 2:12 and 2:13.
• 45:36
  So I talked to him like on Instagram, but I talked to his
• 45:38
  dad. So he's a very cool kid, you
• 45:40
  know, He looks very smart, very respectful, and I think he
• 45:43
  deserves it because he rides his ass off that loud, no?
• 45:46
  He does. He does.
• 45:47
  He does. He beats up on the little kids.
• 45:51
  And on the older folks, he's very skilled.
• 45:57
  So hoping the best out there, no?
• 45:59
  Doubt, no doubt, doubt. Doubt to Nathan.
• 46:02
  For real good luck and we'll be watching.
• 46:05
