0:00.0 | Hey everyone this is Shelby and Aaron in 11 in Tennessee with Chase |
0:17.7 | Elliot. Are you excited for the race this weekend? Yeah, so if we're excited |
0:21.4 | this has been just a great stop on our calendar really since we |
0:26.7 | started coming here. So I wish it was a little cooler but outside that I think we're |
0:31.6 | all all super happy to be here. |
0:33.4 | Yeah, the National Heat is not the best. |
0:35.4 | You, uh, so you're having a really good sitting with second and points right now. |

1:36.0 | Would you prefer a three-release final round? |
