And hello everybody. Welcome back to another edition of the Untitled Jeff Gleck podcast. I'm your host, Jeff Glock, and today it's a 12 questions version of the podcast with Brett Moffitt, who just wrapped up a two-race stint for BK racing and made a start at Iowa Speedway for GMS racing in the Xfinity series before that.

0:46.2

But doesn't currently have a ride, and it's kind of a shame, honestly.

0:50.8

That's kind of one reason I want to put the spotlight on Brett Moffitt this week

0:54.9

because the guy wins 2015 rookie the year in the cup series. Now, granted, it wasn't as

1:01.7

strong of the class as it has been the last couple years, but he still, you know, was a young

1:06.8

driver coming in the sport. And he wasn't able to find anything for the next year.

1:13.2

So on a part-time schedule, I think just six truck races in 2016, he uses one of those

1:20.1

opportunities to go out and win the truck race at Michigan.

1:24.5

And he was able to parlay that into what seemed like a full-time ride with Red Horse

Racing in the Truck Series starting this year. Well, after only five races when Brett Moffat was

1:45.9

Xfinity start and the two cup starts, which just wrapped up last week at Michigan.

1:50.8

So hopefully Brett will end up with an opportunity that gets him in a car more often.

1:55.3

But for now, I took advantage of his limited time at the track to interview him for this week's 12

2:00.6

questions.

2:03.6

All right, everybody. I'm here with Brett Moffitt. And Brett, the first question is, how much of

2:08.3

your success is based on your natural ability and how much has come from working at it?

2:12.9

I would say up until I got to the cup level, most of it was natural ability because it was all short track racing.

2:20.6

I didn't really race any truck races or spinning races, so it was all just short track, run as fast as you can, and, you know, win the race.

2:27.3

And after I got the cup level, it's mentally a lot more challenging.

2:32.2

And I'd say that's the biggest part I had to work at was just
