(First corner where the pit road is gets shined again for this scene)
Voice
Race #9 at Talladega Super Speedway. Dale led the standings over Michael by 4 points. Before the race on pit lane.
Michael, Elizabeth, Dale, Lindsay and some random people come on stage
Michael
So how are you doing?
Dale
Ok. I�m still a tidbit sore from the practice crash. How are you?
Michael
Same. I can�t believe that in one big practice crash both of us get taken out and get hurt. Like, 43 cars are practicing and 18 get taken out. And out of those 18, two get hurt and those two are actually teammates.
Dale
(Look like back is hurting yet tries to hide it)
Yeah you�re right.
Michael
Dale are you ok?
Dale
Yeah. My back is not bothering me at all. How�s your foot?
Michael
Same.
Kevin comes on stage
Kevin
What�s up guys?
Michael
Nothing just chatting with each other. How are things with you?
Kevin
Ok.
Dale
(Sits down on floor)
So�do you think you got a shot?
Kevin
Yeah. The car is handling so perfectly and I think I finally can kick your butt.
Dale
Well you got a good chance at it today.
Kevin
What do you mean Dale?
Michael
Are you ok? Dale, tell me right now. Oh no, here comes Tina.
Tina comes on stage
Tina
You two ready to do me good?
Michael
Well I am Tina.
Tina
Glad to see Michael. Dale, you ok? You usually all hyper about Dega.
Dale
My back is sore from yesterday.
Michael
I asked you earlier and you said you were fine.
Dale
I tried to hide it.
Tina
Ok�Michael, just leave it alone. Dale, how bad does it hurt?
Dale
A ton. It�s the worst pain I�ve ever felt.
Lindsay
Ok�tell me where it hurts.
Kevin
Why ask him questions? Let�s get him to the infield care centre to see a doctor.
Lindsay
I�m a registered nurse in Charlotte. So just stay off me Kev.
Kevin
I was just suggesting Lindsay
Lindsay
Just shut up!
Dale
Kevin, can you please shut up for once? Thank you. Lindsay, right near my neck at the top is the worst spot through overall it hurts all the way down.
Lindsay
Ok Dale. Make sure not to move your neck a lot. Now, can you move at all?
Dale
Yeah but it hurts.
Lindsay
Ok. Don�t worry. I�ll make sure you feel better soon. I love you too much to see you like this. Michael, go get Joe. Tell him I need him ASAP
Michael
Ok. Wanna come wit me Elizabeth?
Elizabeth
Sure.
Michael and Elizabeth go off stage
Lindsay
I�m so sorry that you have to suffer like this! Especially at Dega.
Dale
It�s ok Lindsay. I�ll be fine.
Tina
Should I get Ryan to drive your car for yeah since Mark�s already in the race?
Dale
Yeah that�s fine cuz I probably can�t do it
Tina
Ok Dale. Let me know as soon as anything happens.
Tina goes off stage

Dale

Michael
I�m going to be worried plus to be good here you need your teammate.
Dale
Michael, I won the 500 one year by myself. You remember that?
Michael
Yeah I do but you had Troy.
Dale
Well you have Mark, Keith and Ryan. Now, can you go win this one for me?
Michael
Dale, I�m too worried to care.
Dale
I can get sit this one out Michael. My career isn�t on the line like yours. Go and try. You got everything to loose. Kevin, you should go with him.
