All they know is " I need me some of that Gillette Body Wash 'cuz Tony and Jeff use it."

I think major reform is headed NASCAR's way, and I'd like to see a driver change too. The Young Punks like Tony couldn't keep their tempers in check if another driver outraced their ass because they simply had a better car.

Boy is that ever so. I don't listen to the interviews at all as they spend all their time trying to remember who all they are supposed to thank for their great triump. I too feel thast NASCAR is going to face a major change very soon. But in my case I really don't care as I much prefer the other types of racing.
