You Thought Remembering the ARCA Drivers was Tough?I had this dream that Steve and I were asked to broadcast the race call for a fictional racing series I call the IRNMBSIL.  Since the invite came - in my dream - from the president of that series, Tony “The Destroyer” George, we accepted.  The following is a transcript of our pre-race conversation from the dream.

  • CT ” Who’s the chick in the #3?
  • SW  “Dunno”
  • CT  ”Do you know whom is driving the #4?”
  • SW “Yes”
  • CT  “Yes what?”
  • SW  “No, Watt’s  in the #10.”
  • CT ” What’s in the #10?”
  • SW  “Yes”
  • CT  “Yes what?”
  • SW  “Yeah”
  • CT  “When Roger Penske writes a check to the driver of the #4 Crunchy Critters/Roadkill Pizza car, to whom does he write it?
  • SW  “Yes, he doth”
  • CT  ” He doth what?”
  • SW  “Art thou daft? Watt’s in the #10″
  • CT  “I’m not asking thee….eh, you who’s in the #10….”
  • SW  “Hughe’s in the #5″
  • CT  “Huh?”
  • SW  “The #6″
  • CT  “Who’s in the #6?”
  • SW  “No”
  • CT  “No?”
  • SW  “No.  Huh.”
  • CT  “Huh?”
  • SW  “Yep”
  • CT  “So, Yep is driving the #6?”
  • SW  “Are you drunk, hungover or just stupid?”
  • CT  “What?”
  • SW  “Watt’s the name of the driver of the #10 car”
  • CT  “What?”
  • SW  “Finally”
  • CT  “Wait. I thought that I read at Full Throttle that Finelli was driving that #1 car.”
  • SW  “Dat Wan?”
  • CT  “Yeah. That one”
  • SW  “It’s Dat Wan.  It’s a car”
  • CT  “Which Dat Wan?”
  • SW  “That’s Funny”
  • CT  “What’s funny?”
  • SW  “I disagree.  Watt’s a jerk.”
  • CT  “Who’s a jerk?”
  • SW  “No, Hughe’s one of my favorite drivers.  Very witty guy.  Reminds me of Catfish.  He makes me laugh.
  • CT  “What’s so funny?”
  • SW  “Yes. Yes he is”
  • CT  “This is making my head hurt.  Let me try this a different way.  Tell me the name of the owner of the #3 car.
  • SW  “Mr Originality”
  • CT  “Thank you”
  • SW  “Your welcome”
  • CT  “..and his name is…?”
  • SW  “I just told you his name.”
  • CT  “What?”
  • SW  “No, Mr Originality”
  • CT  “Are you telling me his name is NO? Is he related to Dr No? And stop calling me Mr Originality.
  • SW  “Shhh. Here she comes”
  • CT  “Here who comes?”
  • SW  “Dunno”
  • CT  “I don’t know either, but she sure looks good.  Any idea who the Dude is with her?
  • SW  “Mr Wong.”
  • CT  “Yeah, I get it. I’d like to be Mr Right too. Do you know his connection to her?
  • SW  “It’s Wong, stupid.  Says here he’s the crew chief of the #3.  What kind of car was that again?
  • CT  “Dat Wan?”
  • SW  “NO not Dat Wan. Yu Shure.
  • CT  “You sure?”
  • SW  ” Yeah. That’s the designer of the car talking to Mr Wong”
  • CT  “Who? Dat?”
  • SW  “No”
  • CT  “Who den…er then?”
  • SW  “Fo Shure”
  • CT  “He’s the designer?  Of the Yu Shure? You sure?
  • SW  “Yeah, Fo Shure”
  • CT  “I can’t take this.  Tell Tony, thanks for the gig but I’m sticking with stock cars.
  • SW  “Hey! Where you going?”
  • CT  “Dunno. For sure.”
