NASCAR's Steve Phelps Calls Richard Childress A "Stupid Redneck" | Coffee With Kenny · Kenny Wallace Media

• 0:00
  Happy Friday morning, everybody. Where do I even start?
• 0:10
  Holy moly. Have you been on social media
• 0:15
  lately and checked out Bob Pop Grass's timeline?
• 0:21
  Remember what I told you? I just keep saying it every
• 0:24
  week. What Judge Bell said about the
• 0:27
  NASCAR lawsuit case, he said, oh, so you all want to burn the
• 0:32
  sport down, do you? You're going to do it.
• 0:36
  And I'm going to tell you what, it keeps getting juicier and
• 0:39
  juicier by the week every time I try to go on.
• 0:43
  I'm not going to pay attention to this.
• 0:44
  None of my business. Come to find out, it is all of
• 0:48
  our business. And boy, is it better than a
• 0:51
  soap opera. It's becoming days of our lives.
• 0:57
  Just a couple highlights. Steve Phelps from NASCAR, he's
• 1:03
  not the president right now, but he was, he said.
• 1:09
  I can't even believe I'm saying this.
• 1:12
  He said Richard Childress, one of our biggest car owners in
• 1:16
  NASCAR, needs to be taken out back and flogged because he's a
• 1:22
  dumbass redneck. Should I repeat that?
• 1:28
  Should I repeat that Steve Phelps, who was the president of
• 1:37
  NASCAR, still works at NASCAR in a very high level position, said
• 1:45
  Richard Childress is so stupid that he needs to be taken out
• 1:49
  back and flogged, that he's a dumbass redneck.
• 1:55
  Holy, I got to take a drink on that one.
• 1:59
  I got a full cup of coffee, everybody.
• 2:02
  Full cup of coffee. I'm going to need more.
• 2:04
  There's way more. There's way more juice.
• 2:06
  Hang on now. All of these are e-mail
• 2:15
  exchanges between NASCAR executives and they're all
• 2:20
  available to the public because of this lawsuit.
• 2:25
  Let's bring you up to date. I know some of you are like,
• 2:28
  damn, Herman, I already know all this.
• 2:31
  Hey, I got new people. I got new people on my social
• 2:34
  media and on my YouTube show. They don't know.
• 2:38
  So Michael Jordan, the great basketball player, his team is
• 2:43
  called 2311. And Front Row Motorsports, they
• 2:48
  are suing NASCAR for monopolistic practices.
• 2:53
  What that means is they feel like NASCAR's got too much
• 2:56
  control and the teams deserve more money.
• 2:59
  So they're suing for more money. And this lawsuit was supposed to
• 3:04
  be settled behind closed doors, but they can't get it done.
• 3:09
  They can't agree. So it's going to court in a
• 3:14
  little bit right here next week, December.
• 3:19
  Now this, this next one. Now, when you read these, these
• 3:26
  e-mail exchanges, it's like there's no way they're talking
• 3:29
  like this. You know, you would think
• 3:32
  executives in high end positions, you know, you're
• 3:35
  thinking, oh, they went to college, They're smart and shit.
• 3:38
  No, they talk like us rednecks. Wait till you hear this one.
• 3:46
  So NASCAR looked at SRX. Do you remember a year or so ago
• 3:50
  when we all even I ran, I ran up there at Stafford, Connecticut.
• 3:56
  I ran here in Wheatland of Lucas Oil dirt track.
• 4:00
  I ran 2 SRX races. They they were fun.
• 4:05
  They were on their on Wednesday or Thursday nights.
• 4:08
  They were on ESPN. About 12 of US drivers, not all
• 4:13
  NASCAR drivers either. A lot of them were, you know,
• 4:17
  Marco Andretti from IndyCar, Tony Kannan from IndyCar, a lot
• 4:22
  of other drivers from other division, but mainly made-up of
• 4:28
  NASCAR drivers. But Tony Kannan, he was hauling
• 4:32
  at was the lead in the race out there at Stafford and he had
• 4:37
  issues. But then, you know, I think Elio
• 4:39
  Castroneves, you know, Schrader, myself, everybody, we're running
• 4:45
  these SRX races. We're having a good time.
• 4:49
  Now we're thinking that, hey, we're going to run these SRX
• 4:52
  races. Don Hawk, you know, he was kind
• 4:56
  of running the show, but it was all Ray Everingham's ideal.
• 5:01
  So this SRX was a great idea. Hey, we'll bring all these
• 5:05
  superstar drivers. We'll come to your local short
• 5:07
  track. It could be dirt, it could be
• 5:10
  asphalt, and you're going to seat about 5000 people.
• 5:14
  Some of these, you know, like Berlin, I think could reach
• 5:17
  about 10,000 people. So there was no way that you
• 5:21
  were going to put enough people into these grandstands at an SRX
• 5:26
  race to threaten NASCAR. Now listen to this in the e-mail
• 5:35
  exchanges. NASCAR is pissed.
• 5:38
  They look at SRX as the enemy. They're saying like Denny
• 5:44
  Hamlin, Kevin Harvick, Justin Marks, what are they thinking?
• 5:53
  We are the one that made them who they are.
• 5:56
  And they're going out there threatening their safety.
• 5:59
  There's no soft walls. There's no SAFER barrier walls
• 6:04
  at these local short tracks. OK, So you you can say, OK,
• 6:10
  NASCAR's concerned about the drivers now in these exchanges.
• 6:15
  NASCAR says we made these drivers who they are today.
• 6:19
  Fair statement. That's true.
• 6:21
  And that's still all good. Then it gets a little crazy.
• 6:30
  Then it says next thing you know, SRX is going to have Dale
• 6:36
  Earnhardt Junior over at North Wilkesboro.
• 6:40
  Well, now you know, you know what that's all about.
• 6:43
  It was Dale and our junior that helped Marcus Smith revive North
• 6:49
  Wilkesboro. Remember, they pulled out the
• 6:51
  weed eater. They cleaned this track up so
• 6:54
  they could scan it for the, the, the game, you know, so you could
• 7:00
  run your little game around the, you know, the racetrack.
• 7:03
  So they were going to scan the game it's in and they needed to
• 7:07
  clean the track up. Well, Dale Junior, you know,
• 7:11
  Marcus Smith owns Wilkesboro, but Dale Junior kind of single
• 7:14
  handedly makes North Wilkesboro famous on their own.
• 7:21
  Now during this exchange, NASCAR's pit.
• 7:25
  NASCAR says hey, and they're talking back and forth.
• 7:29
  Steve Phelps, Steve O'Donnell, Ben Kennedy, They're saying
• 7:34
  these SRX races are getting good ratings.
• 7:38
  The ratings are better than our truck, our Xfinity.
• 7:43
  NASCAR felt like SRX was competition and they said, well,
• 7:50
  we got to be gone with with SRX. We need to stamp them out.
• 7:57
  Holy shit, it's right there. Go over on Bob Pockras timeline.
• 8:02
  Read it for yourself now in the end, this one here is like, did
• 8:10
  I just read that? In the end, the NASCAR
• 8:14
  executive, Steve Phelps, Steve O'Donnell Riley, not Riley, but
• 8:19
  an executive at NASCAR named Herbst.
• 8:23
  They said don't worry, we are going to be back at Wilkesboro
• 8:31
  and Bowman great before SRX get a chance to go there.
• 8:40
  Holy shit, I'm going to end like this.
• 8:47
  The one that blows me away because, you know, little old
• 8:50
  Kenny here, I think I'm a little old guy and I'm just kind of
• 8:53
  over here doing my deal on the couch.
• 8:56
  NASCAR fuck hates Richard Childress, the the car owner to
• 9:02
  Dale Earnhardt Senior, the man in black #3 now, now I know why.
• 9:11
  Put the puzzle together, everybody put the puzzle
• 9:15
  together. Remember back at the NASCAR race
• 9:23
  at the Brickyard? Remember that Saturday when
• 9:28
  Austin Hill, the number 21, got into Eric Armarola?
• 9:32
  Remember that? And afterwards, the media went
• 9:36
  running after Richard Schiller's.
• 9:38
  Richard Schiller says, oh, we're just a redneck team.
• 9:42
  We don't know anything. Somebody must have told Richard
• 9:47
  of those e-mail exchanges. You think I don't know, Respond
• 9:54
  right here. It seems like Richard called
• 9:57
  himself out. And I know Richard Childress,
• 9:59
  He's a well respected man. He's his hygiene.
• 10:03
  He's groomed very well. You know, Richard looks good all
• 10:07
  the time. Richard's jeans around if he's
• 10:12
  if he's a redneck, he's a he's a self-made redneck.
• 10:18
  Richard children's worth millions of dollars started his
• 10:22
  own vineyard. You can go there and book a
• 10:26
  wedding and get wine, buy wine. Louie, Louie, my God, Triple X,
• 10:35
  as I say, if every man could do that his self respond right
• 10:41
  here, everybody. And this is what Judge Bell
• 10:44
  meant. So you all want to burn your own
• 10:48
  sport down. But I'll tell you this in the
• 10:51
  end, you can motherfucker all you want.
• 10:56
  You can cuss me out and then I'll go.
• 10:59
  Are you done now? Because it's like that child
• 11:04
  rhyme. Sticks and stones may break my
• 11:08
  bones, but words will never hurt me.
• 11:12
  If you've made it this far, the best proof of that is Trump with
• 11:17
  that new mayor over there, New York, Mindami.
• 11:20
  Mindami, just motherfucker up and down.
• 11:23
  And now they're in the Oval Office just shaking hands and
• 11:27
  being friends because Trump wants the best for New York,
• 11:30
  because New York is Trump. So look for all these men to
• 11:40
  become friends when the dust clears.
• 11:43
  But one thing's for sure it's it is like a bunch of ladies NASCAR
• 11:47
  motherfucker car owners now they did they did like in the earlier
• 11:53
  emails, they did like Justin marks.
• 11:55
  They think they got Justin marks right where they they want him.
• 11:58
  So NASCAR is like high on Justin Marks until Justin March went
• 12:06
  and drove in the SRX series. It's all out there.
• 12:13
  Wow. Hell, I'm afraid of NASCAR.
• 12:15
  I don't, I don't, I don't talk shit out of them because you
• 12:20
  see, you see what'll happen? It's like, go, Jimmy Spencer
• 12:24
  says. You mess with the bull, it get
• 12:27
  the horn. All right, everybody respond
• 12:31
  right here. What should the headlines be?
• 12:37
  They really are gangsters. Whoa, have a good one.
