From purples pool hall of Dawson physical Georgia but I street John -- dislike holds -- could -- Georgia. I else how we're -- this year ha ha -- I think that affected permanently Graham reactor -- wise. They tell me about this Talladega field. -- at 87 you qualified over their 212 -- all time record. Two days later Bobby Allison knock on offense and since that restrictor plates -- kept the cup cars. Below 200 sold what was the mission this week with the Boston war record were you hoping to break."

" Well you know Friday 85 record -- we run a hundred would have been a record for what we ended up front and was the record for that he eighty but we were how open. I Bennie Thompson run that by your talent I don't strike out and ran deeply deeply rooted. Vote for what the talent I got if the with a lot more on them that what I expected and -- we did prior that oil -- that wasted effort and come back posted. And involved it plaster but we just had species that -- If these cats Aubrayo some guys out -- out without they want to put this together along with forward. And then headed just didn't work out what we wanted to take."

" Well I'm glad you're it's an ongoing project and -- is going to -- to -- they're going to build a new version of car for Danny he's going back it's elevator with a let's talk about NASCAR Talladega Carl Edwards -- a couple of weeks ago frighteningly similar to us to allison's. The plates of change super speedway racing them you know and I remember -- you came -- two laps down and won it without caution now everybody races in a -- about the size of the studio here. I wonder your opinion play racing as it exists right now and if you could change what changes would you make to it."

" Well you know. Yeah I look at it and and I really enjoyed running vitality here back in February had a good time down there really enjoyed it but you know the the problem with Talladega is. No I don't care how good these gap power he can't rice. For 500 miles that close together without something happen and usually it's going to be big and it was. You don't like Carl Edwards that it may have after after what happened hailed on the new people -- issue one way or the other and things are going to happen on radio it was. It was good waited -- out that nobody got hurt but bell on the flip side there anything can happen. And you know what they can do to change it on the you know it's like they -- is eight. Is look at the right track say okay -- fact that the trial while only trying to probable for the -- coward for not running right toward a grand science. All of a slow the cars dialed all are they felt that different I don't know what to do what the third option -- has."

" enemy the enemy lines that."

" Without a -- do you think that they're an option would be needed to the banking now so we have to lift the track and it sounds crazy but. That might be an option because we know we after -- restrictor plates -- because the -- the track."

" Well Jimmy you -- said that ever since we will run and Aaron I eighty and and that if an option but the but the problem is it's who's going and that's been in the money to do it. You know is only the right factor at all lead physical -- the car -- coming over the past twenty some odd years it's always been. Left up to the car owners to spend the money to -- the changes that today what they needed a and and I've been travel wire the handle both sides looking at it on the car owners from the driver's side and from from NASCAR's -- which.

Year old rival Earnhardt get started in this game once said that if he showed up today for Earnhardt tried to break into NASCAR today he wouldn't be able to get a ride. The -- was pretty rough around the -- back and move seven days when he was a rookie and and the teams today want clean cut corporate guys quick question do you know is. You were pretty media shy when you've got started. If you try to break -- in NASCAR today would you have any luck would even want to be a cup driver given the demands they put these guys to."

" Well I don't rally you know Agassi as the holder party era and I mean you can't fight that -- and really having any validity to it because the problem he has. Is it you grew up in today's world you'd be a different person he was. I may give in the air we grew up we -- product that environment of that era we grew up -- and that's just. Plain and simple."

" Jimmie Johnson is Mario cohost tonight and I'm told that he may be able -- pretty good bill always story idea I have -- quickly memorial for what Obama's flawed. So -- in -- snowboarding and bill says it that's the snowboarding all right so I go to the top of the mountains and how many of findings don't worry about it you'll miss. And then this guy comes -- that the list. With that one piece no -- outfit on and a motor cross home.

And an entrant follow them down the mountain and he had a straight for the trees and jumping off of being seen clips and stuff so this everybody up the Bill Elliott is why this award. As ferocious at -- as you were back to that they grow.

On the track and cooperation to -- we know that championships. Go checkers for visuals were too much of money so that maybe one reason but is that the only reason what what makes it. What makes you want to continue to race on a selected race basis."

" To raise tons laminated wood -- Now I hereby estimated that an eighth out blindly applauding crowd help let's -- It -- about the money they about the rest of the day you'll -- they've been very good debate you know very long."
