00:08:08
Speaker
Thanks, Pat. I appreciate it, man. about I'll tell you what. Once he gets his bike figured out, He is going to be just as dangerous as he was in the 250 class after he gets his first season under the 450 under his belt.

Speaker
He is going to be deadly.
00:08:30
Speaker
Really? Yeah. so
00:08:35
Speaker
But, yeah, it's going to be neat to see that one. i'm poor um' I'm kind of pulling for him, but those Lawrence brothers from Australia sure are giving him a run for his money. That's for sure.
00:08:51
Speaker
Oh, yeah.
00:08:53

Speaker
Yeah. Yep. So, I mean, that's good to see he's still there. course, yeah. Well, I didn't see because of the the Jet Lawrence and Hayden Deegan deal.

00:10:57
Speaker
Yep. what's new What's new and exciting in your world since I've seen you Saturday on the on the show? Yeah, man. Been doing my research.
00:11:13
Speaker
Been... Well, I've been trying to find some trails actually here around locally to go test out. yeah okay but It's proving to be a bit of a nightmare.
00:11:26
Speaker
Getting to be that hard to find shit to do around there now? Sorry, my shit wanting to freeze on me. It's because it's the operator. Oh, shit.
00:11:39
Speaker
Oh, but yeah. oh but yeah Yeah, so. What are you doing,
00:11:53
Speaker
causing trouble? mr voda i think it yeah
00:11:59
Speaker
one
00:12:03
Speaker
you doing causin trouble
00:12:11
Speaker
Well, that and the other thing I forgot to mention, Tommy Hoskins of Gen 2 Garage actually ended up winning down at the Outlaw Track KD Dragway here in Ohio this past weekend, too.
00:12:25
Speaker
They ended up having they had a hell of a turnout for moving ah from the previous weekend. So, I mean, it was a packed house. Hell, yeah. Your butt's still attached to your face. You're okay.
00:12:44
Speaker
Shit Ah I was over here looking at I over here looking at some trails they got over in Batavia Shit I didn't know they had anything Batavia Really?
00:12:55
Speaker
Yeah Shit Something I want to check out at some point called Area 51 Oh that'd be kind of cool
00:13:05
Speaker
See I uh God Batavia's a fucking stomping ground for me I used to get a lot of my smoke from there Ah. The minion reservations, brother. Shit.
00:13:19
Speaker
Oh, shit.
00:13:22
Speaker
Three tracks. Different skill levels. That's shit. Nice. Hell yeah. think I'll do a shit for motocross over in Batavia. Hmm.
00:13:40
Speaker
Oh. Before recently, I didn't know we had very much attack here to begin with. Well, there's... What is there? yeah There's one upstate... Upstate New York up there towards towards the border and shit.
00:13:55
Speaker
And... Thank you. Appreciate it. It's over at me. Hell yeah.
00:14:07
Speaker
But yeah, there's... They used to have like seven or eight tracks and there was used to be, they used to have couple of the big outdoor races out there. Yeah. Hell yeah.
00:14:22
Speaker
So I know, i don't think they do them anymore this year. I mean, the closest is Bud's Creek. Yup. They're there' in Maryland. I think that's the closest one to you guys now, besides, and don you know, when they do their stadium shit, like in,
00:14:39
Speaker
Philly or whatever. See, you know, going back to and a lot of my family was in their prime doing this shit, we used to see a lot of events around here around that time.
00:14:52
Speaker
Well, the thing is, they used to hold it that that when they did the stadium shit, the first stadium race, one of the first few stadium races was in the Giants football stadium.
00:15:04
Speaker
Yep. Back in the day. They used to actually hold it at, what was it, called Resilient Stadium or some shit like that back in back in the early 2000s, I think it was. It's funny that you mention that. I've actually seen since then, ah you know, but really I've seen events go on here that they were retrofitting stuff like stadiums and such into a fucking racetrack.
00:15:27
Speaker
Yeah. Dude, that was fucking cool, man. I've heard that concept before. oh yeah. That's... Well, when they do their the the ah arena cross, they call it, they're actually doing it inside of usually football or baseball stadiums when they do it.
00:15:46
Speaker
most it Most of it's usually football stadiums, yeah.
00:15:53
Speaker
That kind of blew my fucking mind there a little bit. that's That's like in September, the outdoor race, playoff race,
00:16:04
Speaker
is going to be in Columbus at our soccer stadium. eat It kind of seems like a timely endeavor. Then again, I don't know how they do it, but it seems like a timely endeavor to retrofit the whole thing into another track.
00:16:17
Speaker
Oh, yeah, man. If you look it up, you ought to see the way they build these tracks. They start they basically, one weekend in they end the race and the crews are ready at the other, pretty much damn near at the next location within 48 hours building the track again.
00:16:36
Speaker
Yeah. Yeah, especially for those arena races and stuff, the ones that they do during the winter when they start. and its Yeah, usually within 48 to 72 hours, they're at the next location already building the track and shit.
00:16:51
Speaker
Having to turn it all in and everything. For a race event to retrofit a whole area of the stadium, build up the track, trade down the track, turn the stadium back to how it was before.
00:17:05
Speaker
Holy shit, man. Yep. yeah Oh, yeah. You're right, Nils. They are. ah Especially the motocross races in the arenas like that. Oh, man. they're Oh, yeah.

Gaming and Entertainment Discussions

00:17:21
Speaker
they're throwing yeah They're huge.
00:17:25
Speaker
Definitely something interesting. It's neat. I mean, they've you can actually look them up online. They've actually got where it shows them building the motocross tracks. in these stadiums, like Angels, Angels Fields, Angels Stadium and stuff out there in Cali.
00:17:41
Speaker
You can literally watch them build it from, it looks like a baseball field, and the next thing you know, it's a motocross track. They like time lapse it. Dude, it's fucking crazy to watch.
00:17:58
Speaker
I just like doing indoor truck and tractor pulling. They haul in the dirt and everything else, lay the track down, all that. um The indoor monster truck shows, same same kind of concept, except it's a little little smaller in the certain arenas they go to.
00:18:19
Speaker
But yeah like with Monster Jam, they do the big stadiums and shit where they got room and stuff to do. But the majority of it's small stadiums where they really they can only do so much.
00:18:33
Speaker
But it's the same concept. they Within 48 hours, they're down, done, cleaned up, in and out, boom, after a weekend. And they're on to the next show.
00:18:46
Speaker
it fucking can not Like I said, it it is something, you it'd be neat to do the fucking kind of be the crew. I mean, yeah, you're hustling and bustling, but just to be able to witness that firsthand from start to finish of them being on a light platform, building jumps, building whatever and everything else to the show going on until the show's done.
00:19:13
Speaker
So, I mean, henry was stuckrac
00:19:20
Speaker
what game you playing? No. Said what game are you playing? ah Well, I was going through a little bit Assassin's Creed Valhalla.
00:19:32
Speaker
Ah, oh damn yeah I know this is a motorsports show, but I want to bring up, did you see that they are redoing God of War? Yep.
00:19:46
Speaker
Because the main guy got fucking hurt, so now they've got to go cast somebody new and start all over again. Oh, yeah. i didn't know if you I didn't know if you caught that or not. I've seen that. i was like, you've got to be shitting me.
00:20:00
Speaker
Yeah. Hoss keeps up on a lot of that stuff, too. I was shocked to hear it, honestly. mean, if you're preparing for a role, keep yourself on a home for a little bit. He got hurt while filming a scene. That's the problem.
00:20:16
Speaker
but he got hurt He got hurt on the set. that's That was the thing. ah I'm glad it was just hurt. I've heard of some fucking fatalities happen during movie making.
00:20:28
Speaker
Yeah, Bruce Lee's one of them. Yeah. yeahall There's been his son Brandon Lee. yeah But yeah, other than that, I mean, dude, it's been a good day and everything else. i mean Like I said, it was a lot of cool shit.
00:20:50
Speaker
Yeah.
00:20:55
Speaker
Hell yeah.
00:21:00
Speaker
Yep, so I'm looking forward to it. got a week to get ready to rock and roll. and I'm going to turn the boy loose on the
00:21:11
Speaker
on the first night of racing, and then ah and then I'm taking over. Hell yeah, brother. This should be fucking fun. Shit.
00:21:26
Speaker
Yeah, so it'll be nice. Well, I bet you look forward to seeing how it goes.
00:21:40
Speaker
and good Yep. So, I mean, it's going to be cool as hell to see what's going on and everything else. Here, I'm going to be a dick here. Give me one second here.
00:21:54
Speaker
I got something I got to do real fast. See if he answers it.
00:22:15
Speaker
We'll see if it's dumbass or hydro. I'm gonna blackmail the kid.
00:22:29
Speaker
but the pacific
00:22:47
Speaker
But yeah, it's going to be a fun time. It's game on after after this next week, so we're going to be balls to the wall with a lot of racing going on. so
00:23:00
Speaker
Hell yeah. That and also, like I was telling you backstage and talking a little earlier, throw it out there to everybody.
00:23:11
Speaker
August 9th, Medina, Ohio. Brad Kovach, Jackson, Coach. They're coming to Ohio with their Megatrucks.
00:23:23
Speaker
Your boy personally here, Wally, is going to go hang out with the guys while they're up here racing in Ohio. um I'm going to probably... try to either get a lot of videos.
00:23:34
Speaker
I might even go live for a little bit just to get an in-person deal

Upcoming Races and Personal Plans

00:23:40
Speaker
for you guys. its it'll It'll be a Sunday. so yeah But I just wanted to throw that out there. I'm actually going to get to actually meet a couple of my guests that don't live in Ohio and that I don't run around with coming to Ohio. So it's going to be pretty freaking cool to hang out with them. They got an invite to come up to run with monster trucks and stuff here at, uh, one of the fairs here in Ohio, which was fricking awesome to hear. And, uh, plus they keep trying to get me to come down to the North versus South down at Dennis Anderson's in September.
00:24:17
Speaker
Oh, yes. but So, i mean, it'd be cool to go down and everything else, but just getting the timeframe and money to go right now this year, uh,
00:24:28
Speaker
Kind of not there. But plan on maybe a vacation next year for either the spring race or i will go down for the north versus south next year. So I'm going to plan for that stuff. so But I figured I'd throw it out there because I think it's freaking cool that I get to meet two former guests that we've had on our show here in person and get to see them.
00:24:55
Speaker
Get to see him actually race instead of having to travel out of state myself to go see him. port yeah Poor Johnny is going to have to watch the videos or watch be part of the watch live. so yeah man You need to move to Ohio. You're missing all the fun.
00:25:12
Speaker
Yeah, I know. if yeah We got all kinds of motorsports stuff down here, especially when I'm at motocross and all that stuff. So get you back. Yeah, I know. Shit. shit I think I was struggling with that a little bit it ago. We used to have a ton of that shit going on here, and now it's been scarce for the past couple of years.
00:25:31
Speaker
Well, I got literally a local track around here, and they just expanded. They haven't just disclosed yet what they're doing, but they are making a pro track, I guess. So they're going to try to bring in a pro series next year, which is going to be awesome.
00:25:53
Speaker
So maybe you know that maybe we might get a monster energy, a motocross event here or something close to that kind of deal. So that would be, that'd be badass.
00:26:06
Speaker
Yeah. Yeah, man. Last last time I learned they were still ah doing collabs with Fox racing. werent There's still some Fox sponsors. They're not.
00:26:18
Speaker
The thing is, is the Fox ain't nearly as big as it used to be, man. It's, I know. it's definite tell Yeah, it's more like Alpine, Star Racing, which actually James Stewart is going to be looking for a new ride because Triumph is actually backing out of the motocross thing because they are no longer doing support for their dirt bikes no more.
00:26:43
Speaker
So he's going to be looking for a new ride next year. Whoa. oh Yeah, so it's going to be they're pulling out. Their funding kind of went out the window for the sponsor team and everything else. So he's going to be looking for a ride this offseason, unfortunately.
00:27:03
Speaker
But whoever picks him up and builds him a bike that he wants, he's they're they're getting a hell of a racer. So, I mean, his brother was just as good too. Hell yeah.
00:27:13
Speaker
But Yeah. So so Other than, other than that, man, I really don't have nothing

Community Appreciation and Future Show Plans
