Brad May be. Note that the weird thing that that I yet sometimes yes and my my hands on my arm are probably the best story you remember that terrible accident that they agreement and I had in the closing laps at Watkins Leo dot 2011. And thousands infield care center and I think there is a young lady who had been drinking a little too much that they made you'll intoxicated Southgate checked out often some. Some I'd be using it and do some stuff pushy or reassign her ankle before I left. And she is on the that bad right next to me and so I signed that it didn't make anything out of it and now the following year went back and she had tattooed on her arms she found me in that. Derived hearing came by and she said and I you river may last year us not really (%expletive) out. And actually said he he signed my ankle last year in the infield care center that she put pepper pants leg and and my autograph was right there on the corner of her leg that is some. Thing that that we can't relate to what's it like when someone asks you. To sign their body or or this goes crazy wanting you to sign a piece of paper what do what does that media I mean I know where you began to where you are now that you get to that point to where. You have autograph request you have people that you don't feel toasty from what you've done a great track yeah I know how that feeling is now I was a young kids at 1112 years old run around Landler speedway race in my legends car sneaking into the garage here and I can remember. Like it was yesterday you know CN. How petty walking through CN not you know hot Strickland Ernie Irvin not Rickie or these guys that. And it was just it's like they were bigger than life you know I was a young kid in there in their farce if they almost like a superhero. And hey you know. Mister mister Payne would you sign this for you sound Adam and I got cheers those things you know whatever racquet time whether it would be in NAFTA and a piece of paper I had in my. My pocket my minor pastor that we can't. And so I mean I've been there and and it's a big deal and so I appreciate that stand to. Who look at us and as as heroes you know guys that can go in and race and adware that you win lose finished first or street finished 41. I think they they respect you for for what you do and and for what we aren't and that's where an event like this it's fun to come back and you know say thank you to the fans I think that's what makes our sport so. Great is accessibility that the fans do you have to the drivers and in half got fans that we're just straight up fans for so long I became friends with them. And has seen forever bases are known by their first name they've got my. Email address or my cellphone number we Texans. We just met multiple times that autograph sessions are different functions so you definitely have become friends with them well let's. Let's let those fans know what's the value because we got some news recently that all of a sudden you're not that the BK racing in 2017. What's the plan for you first of all what happened. And what's next yes I'll be back with with became Ian and I are really enjoyed my time there everybody and PK race and was was very great to me. I really enjoyed being a teammate to Matt's been dead on a couple of young kids ran our third car. But that that's Ritson and that that reichert. That the Al half furlong time got to meet some some great gas in the race shop. And it's certainly not my time with Toyota was was really good to you know gone in the last year with with him that you aren't and it gives camp. Made a lot a lot of good friends and and a lot of good memories are caring for a long time so you know we'll be back with those guys next year but I do have some plans 427 team now for the Sprint Cup Series and you know working on him everything's got to be buttoned up with a pretty good. About where we're going to be added hopefully those announcements will be out saying you know when you make announcements you'll make sure you make him. At the right time and everybody's got their ducks in a row itself. You know that's something that we knew when you're dealing with with manufacturers and team owners and sponsors and drivers you have 34 different agreements that are all kind of work and together and so flirt the next couple weeks will be ready to make that Nelson but not how will be in Daytona and now being the monster energy series well. You know I'm here you'd describe this and and I I remember when you first came into the NASCAR Busch Series and a half years ago and as a young race car driver from Georgia. You you had dreams and aspirations of a being on the big stage I mean that's what it's all about you wanna get to the cup series or the premier series has its young to us now. You obviously have those dreams and aspirations you've witnessed there at the good side of the sport. What you also have to digest. This side of the sport after dealing with now that not everything is rosy what's it like trying to learn that tried to understand and try to be patient with this process that you that you've gone through. It's a tough sport and in essence forever hang in. In this world and and I think that other guys can relate to lots of things have gone through and they're professional. Career whether access board a stick and ball sport or maybe you know broadcasting career or whatever job title that that you have. I you're gonna have some great years three Unix sale where you beat expectations. Your own top you get those bonuses then you're gonna have some years or you struggle you don't make the right decision or. You know you're part of a company that down sizes or he changed the job titles throughout the year so. That that's just life and I think that I'm race in stock cars have a lot of fun but I've got friends to. Her and then real estate business in the banking business I've got a lot of farmers back home in south Georgia to. You know weathered drought for seventy something days with no rain so so it is feast or famine and that's his life and so I think it's prepared me. Four for having realistic expectations and I think that you know for me in my family out try to take care of you know my family the it has been these did father. And be you know good family man first. And all the other stuff is is just a good job of just a career that that's not the most important thing but I do spent a lot of time obviously. With my career something that I was. Was born into love stock car race in an.

We continued. Our problems stocks for tots. Here at the NASCAR technical instituted. Mars' North Carolina joined by management of the headlines recently Chris butchery is in the house and the tea is good debt that. It's never the that was all just outside there at the event at our youth and but no great vigor that you can make its news lately yeah believe. You have been very busy the house no it was following me trying to grow grass. And I appreciate their but followed along as weak we haven't had any rain him. I'm just that's yeah so I'm playing because I don't like things governor and a lot of things change very quickly. They called soft north in the offseason but. You know at the end of the day with you know than the move that that we anesthetist that's card numbers can be number 37 over read DTD Daughtry so. Really excited for that everybody over there. What degree people between the willingness to work really hard and be competitive in you know look at the numbers for the into the year for that team they were the mayor reached out with they did in the north and I think that's on the will be able to build off really serve it well what what I guess well for those that are just tuning in May be not be three with what we're talking about. Chris butcher is obviously a driver for Roush Fenway racing. Was going to. Be in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series transistor for front or motor sports to rush and we racing. That was the plan and then all of sudden we get news that you are now being moved to a second team with JTT Garrity racing and driving a Chevrolet. For those of us scratching our heads help help help us connect those dots how can happen down fourteen B loaned out to a Chevrolet team. Scratch my head still so I don't like in the escalated very well yet but. You know everything that that's happened it's has been. You know obviously it's tough to you know still be under contract route champion at different manufacturer but. You at the end of the day this is this is the best way to. I go out on the racetrack next year be competitive you'd get more seat time and be ready to. To come back for for 2018 whatever their brains in you know from our right now with. Roush is expressed is that the plan would be able to beat to get. Three teams started back again in 2018 and be able to go back in house there. I'm sure he'd been able to observe the 47 car last year. And the efforts of JTG Garrity what were your were your impressions then and now that you're over there with them what do you feel you can bring to the mix. You know I think you look at there's stats for your for the sake of the year I think to you know I was looking that it really Charlotte. Then they had a tire issue. At Charlotte but before then that was we can where they showed up they were top ten on charts every time their own track. The speed was there they are really get all the way through the into the season I mean. Cora for the top her for the last ten races there their average finish Wu was in the top eight athletes I mean that's that's also for a single car team. To be used to go out there and do that so as we look at expanding. You know for particularly seventeen at the team. You know I think it Gelman thing is a heck of a driver we all know how. I'm beauty is on road courses and how that applies to lose to a short track to have beauty to be there as well. And they had speed mile and a half saying I feel like. You know going over there there should be. To be things for me the that I can and can pick out it say this is a different feel that you AJ might not be looking forward to it but I would be and you know hopefully ways that. Would be able to approve it as we go along so. You know like is that really excited gig go and everybody over there's pulled that then that's when we also had in the studio there's been great. Just really excited for for the season things can be really competitive out of the gate. Now can be can be a lot of fun ages wide open there's not much filter that. So I think I am that's not a statements that the loosened up a little bitter end and they think well hey they are for those folks that are listening and then have gone through a situation where. They've left one employer and they now find themselves working for someone else. What is what's the transition like just just just being around them like the bunch for front row and then. And then now going over to a totally brand new team where you're being dropped right into something that's already existing what does that what does that transitional it was that learning curve like. You know we've already went through it this year you know even rational and over from other sports had to go through that whole process and I'm. You know the biggest issue is without testing anymore we don't have time to get acclimated to each other the the team. Can only do so much in the shop it's not the hustle in this the pure panic that he did at the racetrack sometimes. So as we went through. They in you know worked out all the bugs is Philip Green acres by 1012 races in this season. Well now it's sorrow over with a different team with. You know I knew a new group with guys being in girls to it to DOD did all rolled again so. It does take some time. You know Bob Osborne has said that the into the season and just talk in in in. You threw off basically. Ninety thome said just you better be prepared to go out there and get through that learning curve quicker than you did this year you already have a year of cup race in your belt. You know with a cardigan to feel like don't make them wait don't use it to get transitioned him. Speaking the crew chiefs. Who's gonna be appreciated JPG a good question we're going to be number 37 that's going to be its Chevrolet at a I got to before we turn you loose. What are they gonna monster committed to it it's been an offseason of change a big announcements you've been on that plan and now we've also had the big announcement that monsters going to be. Let's talk to the premiere series what do think about that. I think he'll be great yeah I think. Monster is the sponsor that we see in so many notes. Ports when they get in they don't go in any small scale they jump in feet first thing in all in all of them is it's going to be. It's going to be really really good first were I think it should help bring in a little younger generation. You know we we watched the the fans that. Really follow monster and others works but they are typically would be younger so hopefully get younger younger fans back back watch him four or gain more. You know really the the excitement behind it is also an interest listening to. You know monster Talking Heads and look we want the raw emotion we want the the the drama that the council of our sport that's always been there is just a matter of whether we let it out. During a during each and every weekend so I think everything about it's gonna be great it in the kind of bias towards or experience that's. My favorite colors they groan but don't get don't look at any wise ideas I don't think Jack or head. Are what allow you on the super cross by acre beef with an upside down and our current. There at their extreme sports none of that none of that young boy or bail off into the AT FL Atalanta of the year ago. I guess what that percent I think I could do the same thing but without the crash at the and I think I could win without you that's hate. Yes it's undoubtedly the get Florida ice Trittler should we get a that's them right. Really I don't know that it matches now meant to mean dropped bombs yeah only when I was young it's not ran remote across from six to nine. Wow is I got run over 1009 and a mom was there at odds are it happened and she never. Well she.

Live from the or technical institute reports we'll know. That is being. Mo factor host Mark Brown. We haven't collapsing. Remorseful tonight that stocks for fox. Lot of NASCAR personality showing a lot of race fans turning up as well get everything signed that autograph take a look around the room seems seeing some of that. The powerhouse names in this sport and one of the sitting next to me as we speak. The legendary ray ever Hamm has saddled up alongside our area. I'm doing great I don't I appreciate you saying I'm legendary and you know it's neat idea I got to follow I think one of the future legendary names and a lot of people will be following that young man Chris butcher on the huge fan of that it's enough. It's great to see him get an opportunity. Don't diminish. What you bring and what you brought to this sport my friend because I remember that human Jeff Gordon defined an era. In this sport that when people look back on a little while they may not fully appreciate the accomplishment today history will dictate the remembering of that moment. Some of us have that now you would just put up some solid numbers what are. Or Samir recollections when you think back on that time when he built that dynasty what you simply take aways. I look back sometimes I have to look at at that record and think gosh was that real. You know we we were little slow to get gone and 93 in a 94 we won a couple of races. And you know 95 we hit our stride from 95 to ninety I think we want about a third the race this thing that that NASCAR held took a lot of people's money yeah. And it was good then and now mr. Hendrick invested wisely because he got a real nice that complex over there but when I look at the 98 season. And and I think we were able to tide them. You know great Richard Petty and dale Inman and act group for thirteen wins modern day but you know seventeen top fives in a row that a year and and for that time I think that that that. To me that's pretty special record to toll special record your commenting that. It's a one of the former miss Winston and your ticket that trophies and checkered flags and all that. When you look back on that time and and you and you take yourself back at that time what is that like because when these races is not easy. It's extremely difficult and and as to win as much as you did the what you spent a lot of time in Victory Lane what did you think about when you're going to all that celebration besides Renee resides. Out. It's great to see here because I associate her with Jackson checks and trophy but the EO. Mike it went when. I look. Back at that now one of the things that I'm sure that that that I am I trying to tell the guys is make sure when you get there that you savor that moment enjoy it. Because we were on such as did run some of that became a blur and you want to look back at it I wish I would have stopped and and appreciated so much more but it was always on. The next one and now wanna look and think how you know that you're right it wasn't. It wasn't easy to win because you know that the schedule it certainly wasn't as full as it is now but we race at some pretty tough track you know when you're doing. You know at Darlington twice a year in racket him by us here in north Wilkes grown place like that you know that you your run and run a free file you got W and Bernhardt. You gotta deal with the quality audio all this he got you'll actually get all these guys around yet but to be that the leaked. Of those guys you you're you're number one among some pretty heavy hitters reference we had a run there is no doubt about it that there was everybody gets a shot to get. Need to get their time in the sport. And I'm I'm proud of that because I feel like when we hit our stride it in in that period in the ninety's yeah we were race and the guys that I really. Looked up to rename. The dale earnhardt's and he said rusty we got to race with. With. People will look back it into history. Even with the Wiki and people like that's what he's with the greats of the sport that was the time it that we we're really fortunate to be in the race for those guys when that time was over. You decide to be a car owner and yet you made a move to dodged my own parts for awhile and alternately. That went away were getting word that potentially docs could be coming back. What does it mean to the sport to have a manufacturer and part of like dot come back it if they choose to do it. I think it it it it says something to the rest of the world that NASCAR is as valuable investment. Maybe not just an auto manufacturer vote for somebody whose marketing something that that NASCAR is healthy and hopefully not hurt him maybe more one manufacture come back and to me the more manufacturers that and it shows that NASCAR can. Provide. Global environment and global opportunity for any manufacturer I think that as manufacturers coming in if they make a commitment to stay like Toyota hats and hopefully dot we'll come back again you know you can't fault them. Because they had financial issues but the fact that they're look at it coming back since maybe never really want to leave. But you know the more manufacturers that that put money into this sport and make our racing economy battery if you will it better for everybody they've gone that it off for four years. When they come back and probably maybe five years six years removed from the last time they were here. In your opinion what kind of work do they have to do is you know this more changes by the hour. What do they have to do to get up to speed and up to date for instance today need a flagship organization committee to choose one for team and then. Pat PeopleSoft offered that organization what I need to do to be competitive as soon as possible. I can only give you my thoughts about it could have thought about it and I think it'd be a tool path right that they would have to be working as a manufacturer to build up there are also they could eventually supply their teams while working on a quirk. On with the court team and marry that experience and and say okay it in five years six years. You know what we're gonna we're gonna bring these things together word again like Toyota has where they are the engine manufacturers they do a lot of development to do all those things to think. You'd I think that's what dot would have to do start. To pass rely on right now quart team. Took to bring them back into the sport to help with that experience because when you're out for five or six years like you said technology moves so fast everything they did four years ago. Is is. Is way obsolete. Compared go to where they're at now so I would take a tool path on I already know the team out there. And not. You know I would also as a manufacturer BP work and I'm my own stuff well your name is in a lot of rollodexes. At dots and that's RT. That the that the phone call came in day one little sisters from gig and the second time through your answer would be my answer would be no I I gum. I left my good friends at Hendrick. While ago because I had something to accomplish a feel like I accomplish that did a good job that it. And now op I'm home and happy and and really comfortable I get to work with Jeff who were more than I have in the last several years I get it to work with a bunch of great people over Hendrick so. You you were you're not gonna see me go on and they say everybody's everybody's got that up a price. I want time I've probably had a price but this time. Just them I'm not there enjoy the fruits of your labor Ahmanson and you know way. You don't want to when I was forty is different you know now I am at sixty. You wanna hold. If it's at now have a good time and work with the people that you enjoy. And I missed their early in Julie be part of a Hendrick is sitting on the competition meetings and and in listening to it. To dale junior's chase him and Jimmy Johnson Kasey Kahne and and now you know we would Alex Bowman. It in there and you know. Jeff you and input from from being in the simulator and things like that eligible and as a superstar Aaliyah Aaliyah on the Taylor way I'm I don't decade there's no doubt that. He and the way he handled it in that 88 car this year and then then put the numbers up. Battling his numbers are better (%expletive) are. I'm not a that's definitely I'd say that yet yeah. Sorry Jeff I just had a chance to view the stats yes it's OK are you getting any kind of report I'm I'm a little concerned now about other problem I'm look concerned with some of the things with you know this. And marring group of one not as it seems my wife as at a Christmas party with some of your some of your off come pod race.
