  Happy Thursday morning everybody from Myrtle Beach, SC Little
• 0:20
  overcast on this Thursday. It is our last day here and
• 0:24
  we're headed back to St. Louis, MO today, home of the big
• 0:28
  one, gateway to the West. It's getting hot outside.
• 0:32
  That's why my friends at Horsepower Hydration, I've had a
• 0:37
  lot of people stopping me lately.
• 0:39
  They said, Herman, you keep talking about that Horsepower
• 0:42
  hydration. I was like, that's right, this
• 0:45
  is mixed Berry. And then of course we got lemon.
• 0:50
  It's real simple. You need more than water.
• 0:54
  Everybody. There's thirty of these bad boys
• 0:56
  right in here, lemon and of course, mixed Berry.
• 1:01
  You just take one of these, pour them into water, and then you
• 1:06
  drink it. And people say I can't do sugar.
• 1:10
  I'm like, no, no, we don't have no sugar. 0 sugar with the
• 1:14

  Oh, yeah. All right, everyone. 7:30 this
• 2:11
  morning, I looked out the window.
• 2:13
  See this window right here? I was looking out at it. 7:30
• 2:16
  this morning, I saw this. I saw this old boy with a helmet
• 2:19
  on riding a bicycle. Hey, listen, I don't profile
• 2:24
  people that much, but I'm thinking guys from Detroit, MI,
• 2:30
  moved down here to Myrtle Beach. Doctors on his ass.
• 2:36
  You got to give me 20 minutes of activity every day.
• 2:40
  Guy's got his helmet on at 7:30 in the morning riding his
• 2:43
  bicycle. I ride my bicycle.
• 2:49
  Reminds me of when I went to the Mayo Clinic.
• 2:54
  He said, Kenny, you're in good shape, but you're getting older
• 2:56
  now I need 20 minutes every day. I said, oh, doc, I'm active.
• 3:02
  He goes, we hear that all the time.
• 3:05
  I need 20 minutes of straight activity, get that heart going.
• 3:10
  I see. Yep, we all hear the story.
• 3:13
  Healthy heart, 81 milligram Bayer aspirin every morning, B12
• 3:19
  just like we have in our horsepower hydration, B12, keep
• 3:23
  you smart. And then of course, my 5
• 3:27
  milligram Crestor at night. That's healthy heart
• 3:31
  maintenance. So, yeah, when that guy was
• 3:33
  riding that bicycle, I could read his mind.
• 3:36
  That damn doctor. Mine told me I got to do this
• 3:39
  every day. You'll get there.
• 3:44
  All right, everybody. We got a couple things on the
• 3:47
  docket today. What am I up to?
• 3:51
  And that Next Gen. car. I was listening to Denny Hamlin
• 3:56
  on actions detrimental. He said, you know, Goodyear is
• 4:00
  making the best tire they've ever made.
• 4:03
  And I thought it sure did show up at that Coke 600.
• 4:07
  They ran 550 miles because of the rain out.
• 4:10
  And I mean, every lap they was racing each other.
• 4:13
  But before we talk about that, I want to run you through my
• 4:17
  schedule. I want you to come see me.
• 4:20
  So this Saturday at I-55 Federated Auto Parts Raceway
• 4:26
  Park, May 30th, that's this Saturday, come watch me race.
• 4:32
  Then breaking nose, I got a call.
• 4:37
  I said OK, I'll be there. June 11th, June 11th, Peoria,
• 4:44
  IL. I've won a couple big ones
• 4:46
  there. Summer national races.
• 4:49
  I'm going back Thursday June 11th for the summer nationals,
• 4:52
  the hell Tour. It's not for the week.
• 4:56
  And that's when you need that horsepower hydration because
• 4:59
  it's hotter. It's hotter than a well digger's
• 5:02
  ass. Herman, what's a well digger's
• 5:04
  ass? Google it.
• 5:08
  So that'll be June 11th up there at Peoria, IL, and then June
• 5:12
  13th, the big one, June 13th at Berlin, Michigan Berlin Raceway.
• 5:19
  I'll be driving Brian Nestor's car.
• 5:22
  Mr. Fleerman is the owner. We've been texting each other
• 5:26
  back and forth, looking forward to Berlin Raceway.
• 5:30
  Berlin, MI June 13th, Saturday and have I told you how much I
• 5:38
  love Berlin? You know, I started there, ran 2
• 5:40
  races a year there forever. Then we're going to move on to
• 5:44
  the middle of July, the middle of July, we're going to go to
• 5:48
  Ashwigan. Check out the Skeller Ashwigan
• 5:52
  or check out the schedule at OSH weekend up there in Canada.
• 5:58
  I'm going to go up there for a 2 day show with the World of
• 6:00
  Outlaw Sprint Cars. I'll be running a late model and
• 6:04
  Brody is going to help me. My son-in-law.
• 6:06
  We're taking the mobile 1 dirt car all the way up to OSH
• 6:08
  weekend. Then you get on all the way to
• 6:11
  August, August 22nd, the night before loud, New Hampshire,
• 6:17
  August 22nd, West Haven, Vermont.
• 6:19
  I'll be running the center steer dirt mod on dirt.
• 6:23
  They're telling me that tracks flat and slippery.
• 6:26
  I said all right, I'll drive in there, let off a little early
• 6:30
  and get that baby rotating through the middle of that long
• 6:32
  sweeping corner. Keep up, roll center speed.
• 6:35
  Got to keep that baby rolling through the middle of the
• 6:37
  corner. All right, I gave you those
• 6:40
  dates. June 11th, Peoria, June 13th,
• 6:45
  Berlin, MI, middle of July, Ash week and August 22nd at West
• 6:51
  Haven. All right, switching subjects.
• 7:00
  Thank you for letting me take care of business there.
• 7:02
  Had to get that out there. Those people have been calling
• 7:04
  me. The Next Gen. car has been a
• 7:10
  pain in everybody's ass. Get rid of that car, spend
• 7:15
  billions of dollars and let's make a new car.
• 7:19
  The O'Reilly Auto parts is really where it's at.
• 7:24
  Well, I had a good friend of mine say Herman, you know
• 7:28
  what'll fix those next Gen. cars, don't you?
• 7:30
  I said no, tell me those things that touch the ground.
• 7:36
  What are the four things that touch the ground on any car
• 7:40
  vehicle. That's right tires.
• 7:44
  Denny Hamlin said that Goodyear is bringing the best towers
• 7:49
  they've ever brought in NASCAR lately, maybe history.
• 7:55
  But that race at at the Coke 600, they ran 550 plus miles
• 8:01
  because of the rain out at the very end there and it it seemed
• 8:06
  to me like they were racing for 550 miles.
• 8:08
  I'm like, damn, this is a great race.
• 8:11
  By the way, Jeff Glucks pole was eighty 2080% of the fans said
• 8:18
  great race. That's you all I'm thinking
• 8:22
  about the 20%. What would you have wanted?
• 8:27
  The racing was side by side, door handle to door handle,
• 8:31
  wheel to wheel, bumper to bumper and it came down to three guys
• 8:36
  just battling out before the rains came.
• 8:39
  But I mean, they ran 550 miles of just side by side and going
• 8:44
  at it. And then he said that's because
• 8:47
  Goodyear has brought the best tower they ever have.
• 8:52
  So the question is this, I can see the headlines now.
• 8:57
  Does Goodyear control the car and our competition?
• 9:01
  I had somebody very smart tell me a Herman Goodyear controls it
• 9:06
  all. Now I don't want to have that
• 9:08
  pressure. I wouldn't want to be Goodyear.
• 9:11
  I would not want that pressure. But I think the next Gen. car
• 9:16
  can be saved. I haven't heard anybody talking
• 9:20
  bad lately about the next Gen. Can that stepchild, which is the
• 9:25
  next Gen. the turtle shell race car, can it be saved?
• 9:33
  Respond right here. Will Goodyear save the Next Gen.
• 9:38
  car? Danny Hamlin said it was the
• 9:41
  best tower they've ever brought and it put on a hell of a show.
• 9:44
  Now if we can get those short tracks right where we want them.
• 9:49
  All right, everybody, have a great Thursday.
• 9:52
  I'll see you this Saturday at I-55 Federated Auto Parts
• 9:56
  Raceway Park in Pevely, MO Old guy just walked outside.
• 10:04
  I'll see him over there. He hears my voice.
• 10:06
  Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa. Look at this.
• 10:08
  What would she want me to come eat?
• 10:10
  I do. Are is the food getting cold?
• 10:13
  Yes. You, you you ever you ever hear
• 10:15
  you do this longer today? I I did.
• 10:17
  I did it longer. I did it like 6 times because I
• 10:19
  kept messing up. I thought so because you've been
• 10:22
  out here a long time. I got to get it right, baby.
• 10:24
  OK. Hey, Wallace.
• 10:25
  Why do you hold that? Why do you hold the coffee mug
• 10:28
  up there? To aggravate you all.
• 10:31
  No, you don't. No, you don't.
