Reflections on Modern NASCAR

how do you feel about the the way things are now with the cars and the drivers and how that all is well the problem they have is like a little there's a reason he couldn't really win many races because his wallet was so thick that his foot couldn't reach the gas pedal our drivers didn't make that much money they were there to kick ass and take names the drivers today are spokesperson for napa or dupont or whoever and they're getting paid three or four million dollars a year to be a spokesperson plus what they get for driving the race car and if you had eight ten million dollars in the bank would you go out and risk your neck really trying to race really banging into people and doing stuff huh but fireball and turner and weatherly and lorenzen and and our drivers they were they were racing because they had to make a house payment next week you know it was not a rich sport we won the championship in 68-69 and um it was most of the major races and the championship and we won a million bucks and david's half of it was half a million dollars they get that if they qualify good at daytona you think a lot of it has to do with all the restrictions and rules that they have in place now it makes it easier for kind of the spoon fed kids no it's it's
