Spiny race was good race.

Yeah, no, I thought it was. I was on the pit box for the one and I was, I was on the radio quite a bit for this race. We had a, I went and we had a great conversation with the drivers beforehand. I tell them, this has always been a real challenge for me. We go to these races at Daytona and Talladega and man, all four of our guys wreck and block and crash each other. And we have these really, we had a couple of really embarrassing moments as a company at Daytona or Talladega and I'm thinking, what in the hell do I got to do to get these guys to understand how, how to, how to get to the finish line of these races without working against each other, right? And make, you know, like. And so basically the, you know, when you go to Daytona and Talladega, the 21 car is going to be the car to beat. And I've, you know, and I tell them, I'm like, you know, if you're, if you're helping the 21, you have to understand that you're taking you're lessening your chances of winning if you push him into the lead or draft with him into the lead going into, you know, if you're, if you're like, oh, I'm gonna get second by putting Austin into the lead, you, you know, you've, you've hurt yourself in your opportunity to win. Austin Hill is a great restricted plate racer, and he, he's got the statistics, but he's also got a really badass race car. He knows what to do with it. And so, you know, I told the guys, look, you know, if you push him into the lead or if you help him at any point, you know, that's. I don't want you to do that. But if you do that, you're going to have to understand that that's going to be difficult for you to try to win the race. But without that. With all that said, we sat down before the race and the, the, the. What I tell the drivers, basically, is I want you to be a good teammate, but I also want all the teammates to understand that at some point in the race, they can't do everything for you, and they need. This is the off. You get all four guys in the room and you say, all right, be good teammates when you can be good teammates. But if you see a teammate doing something, even though you know you can go help him, but it's going to be bad for you or you don't believe in the move he's making, you don't have to do it. And the teammate that doesn't get the help needs to understand that the, you know, they decided, look, man, I don't believe in what you're trying here. I'm not going to do it because I think it's going to hurt us both or hurt me. And you can't get upset about that. What bugs the out of me is when our teammates come on the radio in the middle of the race and go, what? My teammate left me out. Or, man, that wasn't a great teammate right there. I didn't like what my teammate did. And then we spend the rest of the race trying to, trying to, like, get at each other or like, oh, well, next time he's in that situation and needs help, I'm not going to help him. And they do that. They sit there and they boil over that. And so what is good for them to hear, I think before the race is all together, guys help each other when you can, but if you can't, don't. And everybody gets over it. Like in, you know, okay, Your teammate didn't help you and he went by you, he decided to help someone else and passed you that. That he thought that was the move for him. And you got to understand that that's just the way it is. And also like us, trying to work together to get to the front ain't the route. No, everybody find your way to the front. It's basically like choose your own adventure. The race is going to start and we're all going to meet at the front of the field. How you get there is your responsibility.
