Doug TurnbullHOST
I've heard no one saying this.
Doug TurnbullHOST
It was none other than Keselowski's driver, Ryan Preece, who lost 25 points at Texas and even made up T-shirts that we talked about at the Echo Park Speedway weekend that said, don't press the button.
Doug TurnbullHOST
Don't press the button because he got on the radio and said, I've had it with this guy about Ty Gibbs, and then Arrow crashed him.
Doug TurnbullHOST
Didn't even hit him.
Devin KupkaHOST
So I think Josevar joins them next year.
Devin KupkaHOST
But the whole thing with this, it's interesting.
Devin KupkaHOST
Host of ours has been going through some things the past two months, really, ever since I'd say maybe around Echo Park Speedway weekend.
Devin KupkaHOST
Maybe lining that up with some of the things that are going on in his personal life.
Michael WaltripGUEST
And, uh, worked at comfort coach van and bill sponsored my, uh, sponsored my dash car that I got to drive in 1982.
Michael WaltripGUEST
Uh, my first race was at the Atlanta motor speedway and, um, it was in a 75 Vega, uh, I had me a Vega for the Dash Series.
Kenny WallaceHOST
Yeah.
Michael WaltripGUEST
That started the Dash Series racing, and then we were able to win the championship in 83.
6 MINS LATER
Michael WaltripGUEST
So getting used to the car wasn't that difficult for me.
Michael WaltripGUEST
It was just I'd only raced on one track, and that was the one in Owensboro.
Michael WaltripGUEST
And so going to Atlanta Motor Speedway for the first time and seeing those hot banks and thinking, holy cow, this is crazy.
Michael WaltripGUEST
Crazy.
Ronny CatesGUEST
I was with them for eight years, so it was probably close to 800 shows, a little less, 750 maybe.
Ronny CatesGUEST
I can remember the first show I played with them was Atlanta Fest, which was in the middle of the Atlanta Raceway, a little small place.
Ronny CatesGUEST
First concert was probably 7,000 or 8,000 people.
Ronny CatesGUEST
The third one was 35,000.
Donald TrumpVOICE_ACTOR
Not yet.
Jared YamamotoPANELIST
Even Echo Park Speedway, or the old Atlanta Motor Speedway, is doing a foodie land, I think is what it's called.
Jared YamamotoPANELIST
Foodie land? Yeah, it's
Donald TrumpVOICE_ACTOR
like a foodie festival.
Doug TurnbullHOST
You can
Devin KupkaHOST
hear him do qualifying laps at Indianapolis, Echo Park, Speedway, or Daytona.
Devin KupkaHOST
When you hear his car come around, it's got that old sound to it.
Doug TurnbullHOST
Okay, so he's running...
Will ErnestHOST
And he's now up to six oval victories.
Will ErnestHOST
But here's the thing, both of those wins Came on the same day, which award is the first IndyCar driver to win two races in one day since June 28th, 1981, when Rick Mears led the doubleheader at Atlanta Motor Speedway, of course, now Echo Park Speedway.
Will ErnestHOST
Um, so that's just wild.
Will ErnestHOST
But Alex Palou in the two races finished fifth and 10th compared to Kirkwood's sixth and 15th, which is enough to give Palou his fifth title, all in the last six years, which is the first time that that's ever happened.
Jason HildebrandHOST
Daytona was set out to be the super speedway.
Jason HildebrandHOST
Now Atlanta does a better job, Echo Park Speedway, than what we see at Daytona or Talladega.
Jason HildebrandHOST
Both have
Jamie KyleHOST
been passed by Echo Park Speedway.
Jason HildebrandHOST
It's just disappointing to me.
Jamie KyleHOST
Yeah, I mean, it's almost like you could say, hey, you can pit for tires and you make the fuel run last the entire deal and then don't time the pit stop.
