This is Dale Jr., and you're listening to Dirty Mo Radio.

Hey everybody, it's Dale Jr. back again for another episode of the download with my co-host Tyler

Overstreet. Hello. That is the Danger Summer with their song Never Feel Alone. That's the

theme song today. Thanks to hopeless records for that. We got a lot to talk about, and none

of it, I really, some of it I really don't care to relive, but let's get to it. We'll get ready,

uh, start talking about the Pokemon Race. We started the weekend off with a little bit of trouble,

uh, second run of practice, uh, had a bad shift, broke the motor, uh, have done that before, but I

uh, you just kind of don't get the car all the way in gear, and you just kind of have the motor up,

you know, it's a kind of a relatively, uh, non-event, but in this particular instance, uh, we actually got

the car in the wrong gear, uh, the motor is designed to turn really no more than 9500 RPM,

have to go to the back of the pack. That was, that brought up a scenario for qualifying. It was

pretty interesting where we had to start in the back of the pack. Um, at some racetracks, you'd

still probably put up a qualifying effort just to get the pit selection. It poking other pits are

really big, so pit selection wasn't that critical. So it was probably better idea not to put as many

laps on the tires, as no more than we had to. Some guys have been in this position before this year,

not even made an attempt to qualify, but that anger is NASCAR. Right, especially because they had

like the promotion where if you brought a can, you got a free mission, and they were blowing that

up, so they don't want the big, the big guy to not be qualifying. Well, I don't know if that was

why they were upset, but, uh, anyways, you know, we made an attempt to qualify, and we thought that,

we would make that attempt in racetrack without any tape on the grill, so it would give us our car,
