- 1:15working her butt off for all of you.
- 1:19I want to thank all you friends of mine, fans, you know, we use
- 1:24the word fans, but I think you're all my friends.
- 1:28We've had a wonderful time. And Kim has been, you know, she
- 1:33gives her phone number out. Kim gives her phone number out.
- 1:37It just don't matter, I guess, because she can answer or she
- 1:40don't have to. But my God, she has been selling
- 1:44the remainder of my fire suits and helmets.
- 1:48So the garage sale is just for local people, but she's selling
- 1:52the fire suits and helmets all over America and she doesn't
- 1:59have very many left. But it was a great garage sale
- 2:01on Saturday and I want to thank you all so much.
- 2:05OK, let's go. I got it.
- 2:09I got, I printed it off. I printed it off.
- 2:12Here we go. Because I can't remember all
- 2:14this stuff. I love my phone.
- 2:17I just I, I, I went into the Google and I said final top 16
- 2:23in NASCAR playoffs AI came right up.
- 2:27Now I'll tell you what that's what I like about that AI.
- 2:29Now look at there see that says the very top says AI overview.
- 2:36So I'm going to give you all the top 16 locked into the playoffs.
- 2:43So the first playoff race is this week at Darlington.
- 2:47The track is too tough to tame the lady in black.
- 2:50God, I love that race track. I think my best finish was 6 in
- 2:56the in the, what do they call it, the big one, the southern
- 3:04500. Hey, hey, I'm taking my vitamin
- 3:08B12. I'm taking B12.
- 3:10My memory's pretty good, but it's hard to hard to do a show
- 3:13and remember everything. But I think my best finish in
- 3:17the southern 500 in the Cubs series was 6.
- 3:21Google it for me. Let me know.
- 3:23OK, here we go. Top 16 in order by wins.
- 3:30Danny Hamlin, Shane van Gisbergen, Kyle Larson.
- 3:35Look that that got in the way. Let's start again.
- 3:38Danny Hamlin, Shane van Gisbergen.
- 3:41Kyle Larson. Christopher Bell.
- 3:43William Byron. Chase Elliott.
- 3:46Ryan Blaney. Chase Briscoe.
- 3:47Wow. Chase had a hell of a hell of a
- 3:49year. They hired Chase Briscoe.
- 3:51Like Chase Briscoe is going to fill in from Martin Trux.
- 3:56Oh, Coach Joe Gibbs knew something, didn't he?
- 3:59Chase Briscoe's a winner. Bubba Wallace, Joey Logano, Ross
- 4:04Chastain, Austin Syndrich, Josh Berry.
- 4:07Do you think Josh, did he win Vegas?
- 4:11Man, he ran good. Tyler Reddick, Alex Bowman and
- 4:14Austin Dillon. I don't see any of these drivers
- 4:19getting lucky. I I see that they all flat ass
- 4:22won races. Yeah.
- 4:25OK, so who's going to win the championship?
- 4:31Who's going to win the championship?
- 4:34I'm going to pick three drivers. And here's why.
- 4:37Because people say Herman, who's going to win it all?
- 4:39I'm like, really, really. You want me to?
- 4:41That's like getting on a roulette wheel because it comes
- 4:44down to a final pit stop at Phoenix.
- 4:48OK, I'll tell you what. You tell me who you think's
- 4:50going to win the NASCAR championship right now and
- 4:54respond right here. Because it don't matter.
- 4:56It don't matter anyway. I'm gonna give you my three.
- 5:00I'm gonna go with William Byron. And here's why.
- 5:04Because William was so consistent all year long.
- 5:08And he had a lot more races, one than he won, but got beat like
- 5:12the Sly Job. I mean, he led that whole Coke
- 5:15600. William Byron did and then Ross
- 5:18Chastain got him and like the last handful of laps.
- 5:22So I'm going to go William Byron.
- 5:24I'm going to go Denny Hamlin just because you got to, you got
- 5:29to. And then I'm going to go William
- 5:33Byron, Denny Hamlin, and I'm going to go God be between
- 5:40Christopher Bell and Kyle Larson.
- 5:43I'm going to go Christopher Bell.
- 5:46There they are. I got to ride him down here.
- 5:48I got me a pen. Steal this pencil right here.
- 5:51One of Kim's pens. OK, I'm going Denny Hamlin.
- 5:58I'm going William Byron. I'm going C Bell.
- 6:02There it is. I wrote them down.
- 6:04I'll say this, I'll say that. And that's what I got.
- 6:09OK, everybody now remember, have fun.
- 6:12It don't matter. I'm going to save this.
- 6:16And we'll have this on our last show in November, not last show,
- 6:20but you know, final results. OK, let's end like this.
- 6:25Everybody. We're at 6 minutes, 27 seconds.
- 6:34I, I said yesterday, I said took me forever to get to 30 points
- 6:38races. And they said, well, you leave
- 6:42every other day for you're up in Cabo and your family vacations
- 6:48and Kyle Petty charity ride and going out to Sturgis, right?
- 6:58That's right, everybody. Man, Louis looks good up there,
- 7:02don't he? Hey, Louis.
- 7:03Louis, he's like, I'm watching the damn news.
- 7:09OK, let me explain myself. I'm coming towards the end,
- 7:15everybody. I'm 62 and the reason I'm going
- 7:20to take Social Security at 67 is because I still work, I still
- 7:25make good money. So I do want to put that out
- 7:28there that will be in the headlines.
- 7:30The reason I'm taking Social Security later in life is
- 7:33because I still work and I don't need my Social Security.
- 7:37Take your Social Security if you need it.
- 7:41I don't need my Social Security. So I'm still, I do trackside
- 7:46live, I do Kenny Wallace YouTube show.
- 7:49I got great sponsors so I don't need my Social Security right
- 7:54now. Hopefully that clears everything
- 7:56up a little bit. Respectfully, I see people
- 7:59chewing my ass out. They want me to take Social
- 8:02Security like you do. That's because you're not
- 8:05working. I'm still working and yes, I'm a
- 8:11well balanced person. Furthermore, towards the middle
- 8:15of March, end of March, me and my buddy John Scatoni, we're
- 8:18going to, we are going to Europe again, we're going to
- 8:21Nurnbergering, the most dangerous Rd. course in the
- 8:24world. And we are going to run a rental
- 8:26car around Nurnbergering. And then we're going to go to
- 8:29Greece. And then yes, we're going to
- 8:31Kabul. And we're going to do a lot
- 8:35laugh out loud, can't remember anymore.
- 8:39Billy Smith asked me last week. He goes, what gear do you run in
- 8:42Highland? And I said a 668.
- 8:45And I said, Billy, you're getting old and so am I.
- 8:47I said you asked me two weeks ago what gear?
- 8:50I ran an island. I run a 668.
- 8:53Tell the world, well, I only run well, you run your gear and I'll
- 8:58run my gear. Hold on.
- 8:59What? You're wasting my time.
