0:00.0 | 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 |
1:29.0 | Racing in the Truck Series starting this year. Well, after only five races when Brett Moffat was |
1:36.1 | 10th in the point standings, Red Horse shut down and he was once again left without a ride |
1:42.7 | until recently when he had the aforementioned |
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 |
