**Team Prayer**
Marty: At the end of the garage towards the top of the roof that's the start of pit road speed.
Kyle: 10-4, 10-4.
Steve: Listen, when you hit the brakes and you can talk to me I want you to tell me how the car is doing. I'm going to stay off the radio as much as I can because you know how it is here.
Kyle: 10-4, 10-4.
Marty: 1 to go when you get to the line. 1 to go.
Kyle: 10-4, 10-4.
Steve: Make sure **interference**.
Kyle: Yeah, 10-4. It is.
Marty: Alright, man, belts good and tight. Let's get ready to go.
Marty: Pace car in. Leader's off of Turn 4.
Marty: Get ready. Ready. Green, green, green. Green flag:

Steve: 10-4.
**Note:** (Lap 40) Jeff 18th; Kyle 36th.
Kyle: No f-bomb forward bite. No forward bite. Push in the middle; push off.
Steve: 10-4.
**Note:** (Lap 48) Lapped under green.
Marty: There's a spin in your mirror. Caution is out. Caution is out. Caution Lap 54: #7 spins in Turn 4 while racing the #54. #2 hits #7 with RF; #12 scrapes through.
Kyle: 10-4, 10-4. Okay, this thing does NOT turn in the middle of the corner, pushes up off, no forward bite.
Steve: 10-4. We're fixing to go pretty big on our adjustments.
Kyle: Do what?
Steve: We're fixing to go pretty big on our adjustments. We're going to do air pressure, wedge and the track bar.
Kyle: Do whatever you want to because, you know, this thing ain't much.
Steve: 10-4.
Marty: Pit road's open this time by for lead lap cars.
Steve: 10-4. Next time by guys. 4 tires and those adjustments we talked about.
**Note:** (Lap 56) Jeff pitted. 16.00 seconds.
Steve: Kyle, you'll end up with a clear shot in, clear shot out.
Kyle: 10-4, 10-4.
Marty: 4300.
Steve: Ricky, make sure you fix this fender over here on the LF.
Pit Stop: (Lap 57) 4 tires, fuel. 16.47 seconds.
Marty: Outside, the #41 outside. Clear behind him if you need it.
Marty: #10 car is going to get his lap back so it will be the #31, then us.
Kyle: 10-4, 10-4.
Marty: It will be 1 to go when you come back around. When you get to Turn 3 go up on the inside.
Kyle: 10-4, 10-4.
Marty: Follow the #31 up there.
**Note:** Jeff 21st; Kyle 36th 1 lap down.
Marty: Belts good and tight. Get ready to go.
Marty: Get ready.
Marty: Green, green, green. Restart Lap 62
Marty: Caution's out. Caution's out. Turn 4. Caution Lap 64: #40 spins in Turn 4 and gets hit by #22.
Steve: Kyle, could you tell anything yet on those adjustments?
Kyle: No. I'm on new tires so I couldn't tell anything.
Steve: 10-4. I think if we get another quick caution here we might be able to get our lap back.
Kyle: 10-4, 10-4.
**Note:** (Lap 66) Jeff pitted. 2 right side tires, fuel. 6.22 seconds.
Steve: Do you think it would do any good to put a rubber in the RR and put the track bar down? I know we've got to make the thing turn for you first.
Kyle: A rubber wouldn't hurt it. It doesn't seem like it would hurt it. It ain't going to hurt the forward bite because the forward bite is non-existant, so, a rubber in the RR is not going to hurt the forward bite. It may help it turn in the middle, 10-4?
Steve: 10-4. That's what we're thinking. We're thinking we've got to at least get it where you can at least turn the damn thing. Even if you have to soft-pedal it up off the corners so next stop we may put a rubber in the RR.
Kyle: 10-4, 10-4.
**Note:** Kyle stayed out.
Marty: It will be 1 to go when you get back around.
Marty: Belts good and tight. Let's get ready to go.
Marty: You go when he goes.
Marty: Green, green, green. Restart Lap 69
Marty: Caution's out. Caution's out. Good job, Kyle. Get your lap back. Caution Lap 79: #12 spins in Turn 2 helped by the #30.
Steve: Alright, guys, as soon as they open pit road the second time around we'll go ahead do what we talked about and put that rubber in the RR.
Kyle: 10-4. Those adjustments seemed a little bit better. They seemed a little bit better than when we started the race. 10-4?
Steve: 10-4, but you still think you can use the rubber, right?
Kyle: Well, I just ran lower on the race track right there so I never moved to the high side of the race track, so it's 6, 1/2 dozen or the other right now. If you think that's a decent enough adjustment, leave it. If you think we need to rotate, and that's not enough, then we need to rotate in the middle then put the rubber in it.
Steve: 10-4. Putting the rubber in isn't going to hurt you. I just think the thing runs and then it just keeps pushing and pushing and pushing after 50 laps.
Kyle: 10-4, then put the rubber in it because we've got time. Because when we go around we'll be at the back of the pack.
Steve: Exactly what I'm thinking.
**Note:** (Lap 80) Jeff pitted. 2 right tires, fuel. 6.28 seconds.
Marty: Okay, pit this time.
Kyle: Is it lead lap cars or lap down cars this time?
Marty: Lap down cars this time.
Marty: 4300, 43.
Steve: Clear pit in. Clear pit out.
Pit Stop: (Lap 81) 4 tires, fuel, rubber in RR.
Marty: All clear. All clear. 4300. All clear.
Marty: There were only 2 or 3 guys running on the very bottom like you were; those were the guys making it up through traffic. Everybody else was running up a lane.
Kyle: 10-4, 10-4.
Marty: Alright, Kyle, go to the outside and pass the caution car.
Kyle: I can't pass it until they tell me to.
Marty: They already told you to.. Go ahead.
Marty: Tell you what. That's a good rule.
Steve: It really is. We'll end up behind the #43, Kyle.
Kyle: 10-4, 10-4.
Marty: 1 to go when you get back to the line.
**Note:** Jeff 32nd; Kyle 34th. Kyle was the Lucky Dog.
Marty: Belts good and tight. Get ready to go. Pace car in. Leader in Turn 3.
Marty: Leader in Turn 4. Get ready. Ready. Green, green, green. Restart Lap 85
Marty: Clear up top. Clear up top. Keep it coming. Keep it coming. Green, green, green. No caution. No caution.
Marty: Caution's out. Caution's out. Caution Lap 105: #88 spins in Turn 2 helped by the #37.
Kyle: I'm not as sure if it was as good this time as it was the time before, but it was decent. It's still got no forward bite. We were losing forward bite before also. We were beginning to. 10-4?
Steve: What do you think about putting that thing down **track bar** and putting 4 tires on it?
Kyle: We can try that. Do whatever you want to because today it needs to rotate in the center, but it needs forward bite.
Steve: 10-4. Let's take the track bar down, guys. You need some more in the front?
Kyle: I'm going to stay out and come back in next time. 10-4?
Steve: 10-4.
Kyle: We're already at the back so let's just stay out.
**Note:** (Lap 107) Jeff pitted. 2 right tires, fuel. 9.81 seconds.
Kyle: Alright, I'll come in this time.

Marty: Clear up top.
Kyle: Who do I line up behind?
Steve: #31.
Marty: Outside, the #19.
Kyle: Did he make his lap up?
Marty: I don't know where he's going. The #38 got his lap back.
Kyle: Is it 1 to go?
Marty: Yeah. Get up there and pass the #19.
Marty: Get the belts good and tight. Let's get ready to go.
Marty: Leader's in Turn 4. Get ready. Ready. Ready. Green, green, green. Restart Lap 110
Marty: Still coming inside.
Marty: Caution's out. There you go, man. Caution's out. Caution Lap 121: #45 spins in Turn 2 helped by the #31.
Kyle: HEY!! You tell that mother "trucker" he spun me...on f-bomb purpose.
Marty: He definitely turned you.
Kyle: Yeah. If NASCAR don't see that....they're blind.
Marty: Now he just turned right into the #43.
Marty: No, he just did it.
Kyle: Okay. Somebody say something to the friggin' official.
Steve: We've got to put 4 tires on it because we spun. What else can we do there to help you, Kyle?
Kyle: That didn't help. That didn't help it. It helped it up off the corner, but it hurt it in middle. 10-4?
Steve: 10-4. We'll just take that back out and just put 4 tires on it.
Kyle: You can leave it if you want to because it DOES help it up off the corner so let's just keep trying it.
Steve: 10-4. Put 4 tires on it, guys.
Steve: Alright, if he touches another car they're going to park it.
Kyle: Hell, he's gone into the #43 3 times under caution. Tell them I want the mother"trucker", as an OWNER, I want the mother "trucker" in the truck when the race is over with. Alright? From an owner's perspective he's run into the #43 3 friggin' times.
Steve: 10-4.
**Note:** (Lap 123) Jeff pitted. 2 right tires, fuel, work on RF fender. 10.6 seconds.
Marty: He's coming at you, guys. 4300.
Marty: You have a clear shot in.
Steve: When you get around here do the best you can with the fender. It's clearing, but do the best you can with it.
Marty: Pace car's coming guys. Clear, clear. Get out there. Go hard. Go hard.
Marty: Run it on up there, Kyle.
Marty: Keep it coming. The pace car's right out here.
Pit Stop (Lap 124) 4 tires, fuel, work on LF fender.
**Note:** (Lap 124) Jeff pitted. 2 left tires, fuel. 6.41 seconds.
Marty: Are we okay on the LF fender?
Steve: Right there where the braces are, that's what's holding it. It won't move.
Marty: Alright. 10-4.
Marty: That's Jeff Green driving the #43, right?
Steve: 10-4.
Marty: Hmmm..Robby likes him. **inteference** somebody he doesn't like.
Flash: Hey, Marty?
Marty: Go ahead.
Crew: Where's the #7 pitting?
Marty: Come back on that.
Crew: Where is the #7 car pitting at?
Marty: They're all the way down in the middle of Turn 1 and 2.
Marty: They're like the 4th stall in.
Marty: It will be 1 to go when you come back around.
**Note:** Kyle 31st; Jeff 33rd.
Marty: Get your belts good and tight. Get ready to go.
Kyle: 10-4, 10-4.
Marty: Leader in Turn 4. Get ready. Ready. Green, green, green. Restart Lap 129
Marty: Caution's out. Caution is out in Turn 4. Car spun on the bottom. Caution Lap 136: #2 spins in Turn 4 helped by the #6. #25 also involved and #48 gets spun towards the inside frontstretch wall, but no contact.
Steve: Kyle, I'm looking at a lot of these guys will pit this time. We're going to stay out there because if I keep those tires on it, it will run out, here before long.
Kyle: 10-4, 10-4.
Steve: Looked like you were pretty decent that time. You ran your fastest laps of the day.
Kyle: 10-4, 10-4. It's still about the same. We'll just see where it goes on a longer run.
Steve: 10-4. I know you're struggling. Just do the best you can with it.
Kyle: 10-4, 10-4. Let's just keep working at it and thinking about it and we'll be alright.
Steve: 10-4.
**Note:** Kyle 25th; Jeff 26th.
Steve: Bradley, just leave it where it is right now and I will give you a thumbs up in a minute.
Marty: 1 to go when you get back to the line.
Marty: Get the belts good and tight. Let's get ready to go.
Marty: Leader's in Turn 4. Get ready. Green, green, green. Restart Lap 143
Kyle: What the f-bomb? What was that?
Marty: Caution's out. Caution Lap 175: #23 has a RF go down in Turn 3 and puts debris on track.
Kyle: That f-bomb car behind me just picked me up off the ground in the middle of the backstretch.
Marty: 10-4.
Kyle: Okay, here's the deal. The longer you run it feels like the right air pressure goes from 20 pounds to 120 pounds. This thing has got NO FORWARD BITE. It's turning itself left in the middle a little bit. If it goes in it pushes up and then snaps itself loose.
Steve: 10-4. We're going to do an air pressure adjustment and work on the rear to see if we can get you to run back on the bottom.
Steve: We're going to adjust the rear shock and we're going to do some air pressure. Flash, where are you at? Put a 1/2 back in the RR.
Steve: Ernie, let's just do the RR.
Steve: Kyle, let's pit this time.
Steve: The #41 is behind you so you'll have a clear pit in.
Kyle: 10-4, 10-4.
Marty: The #17 will be in his stall so it will be 2 stalls in front of #17.
Kyle: *** damnit.
Steve: That's alright. Just get the RR.
Kyle: Get out of the way!!!
Kyle: Where's the gun?
Pit Stop: (Lap 180) 2 right side tires, fuel. 11.28 seconds.
Marty: Clear, clear.
Kyle: My fault. My fault. I wasn't paying attention and I didn't know where I was at. My fault.
Kyle: If we don't have to time recover from something like that just get out of the way, I'll leave, and just come back.
Steve: 10-4. That's alright guys. We'll just get caught up here and we'll stop.
Marty: Pace car in Turn 3.
Pit Stop: (Lap 181) Kyle came back in. 2 left side tires, fuel, shock adjustment.
**Note:** (Lap 181) Jeff pitted. 4 tires, fuel, 2 rounds out of RR. 14.59 seconds.
Steve: Go, go, go. All the way out.
Kyle: Sorry about that. Sorry about that. I was looking for something else when I came in. That's my fault.
Steve: Coming in here I don't see how you get in the thing at all.
**Note:** Kyle missed the pit box and about 1/4 past it he made a HARD left into it.
Kyle: No, that was my fault. I just wanted to get everybody out of the way so I didn't run over the gun or anything or anybody because when you panic you can get somebody hurt.
Steve: Ricky, y'all were doing the right thing. I thought we could go ahead and do the stop if we backed up a little bit. Ya'll are alright. I was thinking we could do it so don't worry about it.
Marty: 1 to go when you get back around.
Marty: Go ahead, Kyle. Behind the #7.
Steve: You're alright. You're behind the #43. They didn't penalize us.
**Note:** Jeff 24th, Kyle 25th.
**Note:** There was a concern with Kyle's quick exit from the pits they might have been caught speeding exiting pit road.
Marty: Get the belts good and tight. Let's get ready to go.
Marty: Leader in Turn 4. Green, green, green. Restart Lap 188
**Note:** (Lap 223) Lapped under green.
Marty: Right up here in front of you. Clear on the bottom. Keep it coming. Caution's out. Caution's out. Caution Lap 230: RR down on #23. Spins in Turn 3.
Marty: I think we're the first one down a lap.
Kyle: Yeah. This thing is "caca" right now. There isn't a lot I could do with it.
Kyle: It goes in the corner. Turns itself loose in the middle. If feels like it ain't got no motor in it in the middle, but at the same time as soon as it turns itself loose, got the wheels turned to the left and it's got no forward bite and pushes up off.
Kyle: I'm not afraid of anything now. As bad as this thing is you can do whatever you want to try.
Kyle: Is it lap cars time to pit this time?
Marty: Clear shot in.
Marty: Lots of time. Pace car just into Turn 2.
Pit Stop: (Lap 232) 4 tires, fuel.
**Note:** Jeff also pitted. 4 tires, fuel, 1 round down on track bar, 1 pound out of both fronts. 14.47 seconds.
Marty: Alright, go ahead and pass the caution car to the outside.
Marty: 1 to go when you get here. The #23 will have to be at the tail end of the longest line.
Marty: The #23 will start behind you, Kyle.
Kyle: 10-4, 10-4.
**Note:** Jeff 31st; Kyle 34th. Kyle was the Lucky Dog, again.
Kyle: Is the rule do I have to start behind him because I made it up?
Marty: Stay right where you're at, kid.
Marty: Get the belts good and tight. Let's get ready to go. Leader is in Turn 4. Remember to pass to the right before you get to the stripe. Get ready. Green, green green. Restart Lap 237
**Note:** #18 engine sputtering real bad and slowing down dramatically.
Marty: Clear on the bottom. Clear on the bottom. Clear on the bottom. Still green. Still green. Clear all around. Caution's out. Caution's out. Caution Lap 273: #77 spins in Turns 1 and 2 and hits the wall.
Steve: Kyle, was that any better that run or about the same?
Kyle: About the same.
Kyle: Whatever you want to do. Like I said, we can make it work, but we have not made it better so if you want to try something, try something.
Steve: 10-4. Let's close the rear shocks up.
Steve: Alright, guys, here he comes.
Marty: The 2 stalls in front of the #17. The #41 will not be there.
Pit Stop: (Lap 275) 4 tires, fuel, close both rear shocks. 19.53 seconds.
**Note:** (Lap 276) Jeff pitted. 4 tires, fuel, 1 round up on track bar, 1 pound in of both fronts, 2 rounds wedge in LR. 13.47 seconds.
Marty: Get your belts good and tight. Get ready to go.
**Note:** Kyle 31st; Jeff 32nd.
Marty: Leader in Turn 4. Get ready. Geat ready. Green, green, green. Restart Lap 281
Marty: Back it down. Right here in front of you. Clear up top. Clear up top. Keep it coming. Still green. Clear all around. Still green.
Marty: Clear all around. Caution is out. Caution is out. Caution Lap 286: #38 spins in Turns 4 and stops.
Steve: Kyle, could you tell anything about that change?
Kyle: No, not really. New tires you can't run enough. Feels like something miiiight be...this thing might be slowing down a little bit. 10-4?
Steve: We've only run 6 laps on this set so stay out there.
Kyle: 10-4, 10-4. That's fine.
**Note:** (Lap 288) Jeff pitted. Fuel, 2 rounds down in LR. 4.44 seconds.
Steve: You're okay on temperatures and oil temperature stuff, ain't you?
Kyle: Yeah, all that stuff's good. Water temperature has been running about 190; oil temperature has been running about 215-220, right along there. All that's been pretty good.
Steve: 10-4.
**Note:** Kyle 27th; Jeff 29th.
Marty: 1 to go when you get back around.
Marty: Get your belts good and tight. Get ready to go.

Marty: Back it down. Got a lot of smoke. Car spun on the bottom. Clear up top. Clear up top.
Steve: After that thing runs 60 laps it really goes to junk, don't it?
Kyle: Yeah, it runs the tires off of it. It's a piece of "caca". It won't drive for crap. The only place I can run is on the bottom. If I go to the top I don't do nothing, but spin tires, so, I've got to stay on the bottom and try to make something happen.
Steve: 10-4. Closing the shocks up didn't do anything at all for it, did it?
Kyle: No. Nope. Nothing we've done all day's helped it.
Steve: Alright, guys, when we pit this time get 4 tires on it. It should be a clear pit in, Kyle.
Marty: Clear shot in.

Steve: Yeah, check the right side up there.
Steve: Alright, here we go.
Marty: You've got a clear shot in.
Steve: Marty, just keep me posted where the pace car is. We may have to do one side at a time.
Marty: 10-4. Pace car half way down the backstretch.
Steve: Alright, jack the left side up.
Marty: Pace car, Turn 3.
Steve: Get out of there, Ernie. Get out of there.

Marty: Pace car in the middle of Turn 3 and 4.
Steve: Get out of there. Let it down, let it down. GO!
Pit Stop: (Lap 378) Kyle pitted again for left rear rubber.
Marty: We're on 1 to go.

Marty: Leader is in the middle of Turn 3 and 4.
Marty: Get ready to go. Get ready. Green, green, green. Restart Lap 380
Marty: Back it down. Back it down. Front straightway. Clear up top. Clear up top. Caution Lap 386: #54, #77, #31 wreck out of Turn 4 and down the frontstretch.
Kyle: Didn't run enough laps. Couldn't tell whether it helped or whether it hurt it yet.
Steve: 10-4. As soon as they open pit road we'll just go ahead and put that rubber in the LR.
Steve: Alright, guys, here he comes. Ernie, going to make it easy on you. Let's put left sides on it; put left sides on it this time. We'll come back in and put the rights on it; that way you can get it in.
Marty: Clear shot in.
Steve: Get out of there. Get out of there. Put your tire on.
Steve: Okay to go.
**Note:** (Lap 389) Left sides tires, fuel, rubber in LR.
Marty: All clear. All clear.
Marty: Pace car's coming to your outside. Pick it up. He's going to pass you, Kyle.
Kyle: I'm at 4500.
Steve: Marty, once you get him caught up we'll come back in put rights on it.
Marty: 10-4.
Kyle: Wonder what the Pace Car's running at? I need to be turning at 5000 or 5500.
Marty: Here he comes. On pit road.
Steve: Ernie, just get the tires on it. Wave off the jack because you ain't going to make it.
Marty: Pace car, Turn 3.
Steve: Go ahead and go.
Pit Stop: (Lap 391) Right side tires, fuel.
Marty: We're on 1 to go.
Kyle: Did this thing sound different when it stopped in the pits?
Steve: Yeah, it doesn't sound as crisp as it did this morning.
Marty: Get your belts good and tight. Get ready to go.
Marty: Leader in Turn 4. Go ahead and pass that #7.
Kyle: I can't. There's not enough room.
Marty: Alright, 10-4. Green, green, green. Restart Lap 393
Marty: Back it down. Front straightway. Back it down. Caution's out. Caution's out. Clear on the bottom. Clear on the bottom. Caution Lap 403: #97 loose out of Turn 4. Smacks the left side of the #2. Airborne and runs over the left side of the #2.
Steve: What do you think? New tires just covering everything up still?
Kyle: Yeah it is. It doesn't feel any different on new tires now than it felt earlier in the day on new tires or every time we put on new tires, so we're just going to have to run it. You only got the RR rubber in, right?
Steve: Kyle, we got the LR rubber for you in.
Kyle: Okay, it may be, it MAY be, a touch better turning from the center off, but it's hard to tell right now, but that seems to be the biggest difference. Sometimes if I get in the right place I don't feel like I got as much wheel on it right now, but that could be the new tires, too.
Steve: 10-4. Let's just stay out there.
Marty: That #97 is entertainment, let me tell you.
Kyle: He's what?
Marty: He entertainment. He's worth the price of admission.
Kyle: 10-4, 10-4.
