00:00A little late as usual, packing up now.
00:02Going to head down to Charlotte.
00:03Got to drive all night.
00:04Should be there around 7 in the morning
00:05for a seat fitting tomorrow, and then off to test.
00:08We're leaving for a 500 mile drive right now.
00:17My name is Travis Pastrana.
00:22This is my wife.
00:30This is where I came from.
00:39This is where I'm going.
00:47And this is my story.
01:00Just drove all night, 7 AM.
01:01Get the seat fitting done.
01:03Talk to the guys a little bit.
01:04Pick up a copy of the race for this weekend of last year,
01:08and then I'll probably go back to sleep.
01:33We've got my cars over here.
01:35This is the nationwide program.
01:36Over on the other side is actually the K&N program.
01:41You can see, I mean, they run quite a few different race teams
01:44out of this shop area.
01:46You know, I didn't know a whole lot about Travis Pastrana
01:48when we first started talking about him.
01:52We live in our NASCAR world, and fortunately I have teenage kids,
01:57and so they watch X Games, and they knew who Travis Pastrana was
02:01probably more so than me, and largely because of Nitro Circus.
02:05And I was like, okay, this guy has obviously a lot of gumption,
02:09a lot of talent, and he has something special.
02:15We have an alliance with the group that's going to run his nationwide team.
02:20We are running his East team out of Michael Waltrip Racing
02:23simply because we're the best team in the garage.
02:47We can bring more to you if you want.
02:50Yeah, I was thinking just last time I got my elbow caught in this.
02:53When I was in the rally team, they actually color-coordinated all the tools
02:56that matched, so like all the eights were green, all the tens,
03:00everything that needed a certain tool.
03:02The tool was color-coordinated with everything that it went through.
03:06It made life so much better.
03:07So in NASCAR we kind of adopted that same theory.
03:09All the buttons I'm allowed to hit, they painted them all pink.
03:13So that way I know that I should only touch the ones that are the pink ones.
03:18They're as big as these cars are.
03:21They're tight.
03:22I'm glad that my real life husband doesn't look like that.
03:30Dude, where the hell's our driver?
03:32Why are we running late?
03:33I don't want to park this thing at night.
03:35It's harder than hell out here.
03:37We need to get going.
03:38I don't know why.
03:38He wants to be first, but we're going to be the last mayor.
03:44I'm Special Greg, and we're here at Eddie Sharp Racing.
03:48Basically, I'm prepping for Travis' NASCAR season.
03:51Travis has been looking forward to this NASCAR deal for a long time.
03:55He's got all of his eggs in a basket.
03:58He's giving it everything he's got.
03:59It's all or nothing.
04:01What goes into a pit stop?
04:02Well, you've got a lot of different positions,
04:04but the bottom line is it's a full-time job.
04:07There's a lot of things going on,
04:09and it all needs to be synchronized,
04:10and every single athlete on that team needs to be balanced.
04:52You also have gym time.
04:55You've got to get in there.
04:55You've got to get your workouts.
04:56You've got to be fit.
04:57Like, fitness is a big thing.
04:58You've just kind of got to be looking at the whole picture,
05:02like we're talking about athletes.
05:06roads are the best.
05:24But the people with some targets...
05:24Like the building,
05:24it's really insane.
05:25In front of the floor,
05:26watch again that you come up against PAUL vier,
05:26The adventure with..."
05:34For everything makes it visible.
05:34But it's really exciting.
05:50All right, they're finally here.
05:51We're about three hours late and here comes rain and I don't want to drive in the rain.
05:55So let's go.
05:57I always lean.
06:01Doesn't start so far.
06:03Yeah, but we're weak.
06:08You deal with people who come to the sport and they're very arrogant and they just feel
06:13like I'm going to walk in here and I'm going to be king of the mountain when I walk in.
06:17Those people fail and can't overcome it.
06:21You can't judge heart and with Travis, it's passion and heart.
06:25Those things are off the charts and he cares so much and he cares about his people but he
06:31really cares about being better.
06:40Watching some video the last couple of years of the Nationwide.
06:42They didn't have K&N but just trying to do as much homework as we can, getting on the
06:47iRacing simulator, seeing why the crashes happen, where they're happening from.
06:50The first race for K&N season this year coming up in Bristol tomorrow.
07:00We're in the room right now and this is kind of the base where everyone kind of sits and
07:05there's all kinds of steps.
07:07Basically the coefficient of down force, the yaw, so they'll do three tests.
07:11This is zero yaw and then the car will actually, because the wind is going straight from where
07:14we're looking, the car will actually tilt like it's sliding in the corner.
07:18So you'll see a car, in NASCAR a lot of times, you'll actually even be able to see on TV
07:22that the car, it sits, it's never, you're never not sliding.
07:25So the back end always kind of pushes against that wall of air.
07:28So they're basically testing how much force they're getting, side force, down force.
07:33This whole change, what they just made, so we had a little bit too much down force on
07:37the car so they're actually just taking a half inch of duct tape off each side so the wind
07:42doesn't come through quite as much into that area.
07:46And they're thinking that's going to make a significant change.
07:49This actually sucks the air in and everything computes how much down force, how much wind
07:54resistance, how much drag.
07:58So I got a dollar that says that my wife kicks your ass in the main event.
08:03I got a dollar that says we all kick your ass.
08:05Kick my ass?
08:05Yeah.
08:06Well, are we talking about the races this weekend or are we talking about right here
08:08in go-karts?
08:09Oh, we'll do both.
08:10No, no, I'll just bet my go-karts.
08:13Special.
08:14You win on this one?
08:15I'm with Moffitt, man.
08:16I don't think egos win races.
08:17I think he's got what it takes.
08:20I'll bet a dollar on him, but I'm not in the $100 bet.
08:22No, sir.
08:23No $100 bet.
08:24See, this is how we get the good guys out.
08:25We just raise the stakes until they fail.
08:27It's like poker.
08:28All right, let's go.
08:29We got Joey Logano over here playing Daytona.
08:33So this is a secret.
08:35You've got to play Daytona.
08:37So we're going to run and we'll do times for the first one out.
08:40And then $100 on the second race.
08:41Anyone that wants to sit on the $100, you in on this?
08:44Sure.
08:44All right, $100 for the second race.
08:46Bell is not in.
08:47You're not in?
08:48Why?
08:48Because I'm way, way more than you bastards.
08:51Can I let Joey in on the $100?
08:53I'm not getting it.
08:53You raise your all the $100.
08:55And I've never even driven it.
08:57What's up?
08:57No, I didn't tell him, so you're not telling him either.
09:00No, I already have him in.
09:02Oh, my God.
09:03What?
09:03So we've lost $100 right now already?
09:05Yeah.
09:06Muffet, I will actually pay you $100 if you make sure that Joey does not get one single
09:11fastest race.
09:12Okay, we're going this side.
09:15Hey.
09:17It's Joey's first threesome.
09:22Apparently, the more stars you have is equivalent to how much you race here.
09:28And somebody's got five stars, while the rest of us have one and two.
09:31You got five?
09:32So I think you're here.
09:33Look at that.
09:34Five stars!
09:36I'm in no contingency to win the money, but Joey Logano's getting wrecked because Travis
09:41is paying me to make sure he doesn't win.
10:04I beat everybody.
10:06If you see the times, I'm almost a second faster than everybody, the whole field.
10:12Okay, everybody else is within a tenth of a second.
10:16They're like, you know, the next six cars.
10:18He is eight tenths faster.
10:22Yeah, yeah, for sure.
10:24There you go.
10:25I don't know where it was.
10:26Have fun.
10:27Don't worry.
10:28There you go.
10:28There you go.
10:30I'll take my dollar back.
10:31I thought that was a tip.
10:33Oh, yeah.
10:37That's it.
10:38You're the best.
10:38Here, come on.
10:38Here, you know, right?
10:39Here we go.
10:40Here we go.
10:43Well, this is the biggest problem traveling with Q-Bert and the fifth wheel cuz it has
10:46Nitro Circus.
10:47So, work got out and it came around.
10:49But on a positive note, the owner just gave us all free drinks and copped her meal.
10:53So, unfortunately, we have a race tomorrow so I had to give my free drinks to other people.
10:57What's up, guys?
10:59Holy cow!
11:02What's up, guys?
11:03You guys were on the sport. I appreciate it.
11:06Yeah, of course.
11:08Is that my jacket?
11:10It's right here.
11:11Dude, we gotta make a break before there's more and more cars showing up.
11:20You should have seen that prettier hair than her.
11:23One, two, three.
11:29You're probably gonna yell at me for not putting on my fireproof suit now.
11:33I'll wear the fireproof suit for the race.
11:34We're just actually going to do pictures now.
11:37There's a sticker on it.
11:43Okay, so, for 2012, NASCAR K&M Pro-East driver contact information.
11:48And it asked me what your occupation is.
11:50I mean, technically it should be driver, but...
11:53I just wrote down Basic Cable Celebrity.
11:55It was either that or downtown Jackie Racer.
11:57I wasn't sure which one was going to come up first.
11:59It's been a real long day already.
12:02Just with autographs and with meetings.
12:04And it's really good to come out here for me to get on this bike.
12:06And we got qualifying coming up.
12:08So, we'll basically throw you in a car.
12:10You guys turn up the fastest lap that I've done the whole time.
12:14And in a car that's completely changed from our last practice session.
12:17Basically went back to everything we had before we started.
12:19So, let's get on this bike, never mind.
12:22And we'll be ready in about an hour to jump in that car and go real fast.
13:12It's been three pretty long days.
13:16About to start the fourth.
13:17Gonna go wake Travis up.
13:19Poor kid.
13:19I actually do feel bad for him right now.
13:22He's had probably three and a half hours sleep.
13:25He had three red eyes in one week.
13:29Hi.
13:30Morning, buddy.
13:31I'm really sorry.
13:32Yeah.
13:33I'm sorry, but as soon as we do your one shot, you can go back to bed for a couple
13:38hours.
13:39Oh, you're good.
13:40So, be really excited about that.
13:41I'm so pumped.
13:44He is going to be pretty excited because the car looks awesome.
13:47He gets to drive it today, see it today for the first time.
13:50So, that's the only thing that got his ass out of bed right now is the fact that he knows
13:54there's a rally car.
13:55He gets to go drive all day.
13:56But yeah, so we have 14 different locations to shoot.
14:00We got the heli coming in one.
14:02Sick.
14:02You cannot.
14:04I'm one of 10 people that are going to tell you this today.
14:06You can't his car up.
14:08You can't.
14:09Steve said he will kill me and you.
14:11I'm like, dude, I can't control him.
14:12He's like, well, he listens to you.
14:14So, we can't it up.
14:17It's the only one.
14:18First time seeing your car.
14:21He said hi to his car.
14:23I think we might be back there.
14:41It's the most interesting however you want to get us done.
14:49Let's see this story.
15:13we're here yeah we're doing this um you're gonna do it once hopefully just
15:19once nail it you can't kill the car like that when you rev it so much oh sorry
15:23oh keep it running yeah sorry for that no problem no problem otherwise you break again
15:55so
16:48It's amazing, right now we just got done with the Dodge Dart photo shoot, it was absolutely
16:53epic.
16:54The guys put together an amazing car and an amazing facility out here and just really
16:59had a lot of fun.
17:00So I've never seen a camera crew go so fast and so quick.
17:06So many people just moving all in unison and it worked out really good.
17:10I was really proud of my friend Andy.
17:11Cut.
17:12She's talking way too much.
17:14They have work to do.
17:18Perfect.
17:28Well, I am a participant in this.
17:40Basically, I got a weekend off from racing NASCAR and then we came to the NASCAR track
17:43because my wife is racing NASCAR.
17:47Hey, your sticker is still on your hat.
17:48You're going to get ridiculed.
17:50This is NASCAR, not action sports.
17:54Never wear flat brims at NASCAR.
17:57I'm hoping they let me use my own driving suit.
18:00I think it's a little dusty from Baja, but it'll be good.
18:06Are you going to carry your stuff?
18:22Be safe.
18:22Be safe.
18:22No one likes to lose her.
18:25Finally get to say that line.
18:26That's what she says every time I go out there.
18:27This is actually pretty cool.
18:29There's like all my comedic heroes are here.
18:33I was super pumped to see some of the guys.
18:35I didn't go over the list on who was going to be here, but Lindsey will definitely have
18:40some fun today.
18:40So I got some pretty good drivers in there too.
18:43We'll see what happens.
18:43I can't go anywhere.
18:44I'll be like her.
18:45I'll get a book out or something.
18:48I might go hang out in the pits and watch some practices.
18:51I don't want to ditch her.
18:52I want to be like, you know, there to support her.
18:55They gave me the 34 that only has one gear.
18:58One gear?
18:59Yeah.
19:00That's what the one guy said.
19:01It only has fourth gear.
19:03Oh, that's fine.
19:04Yeah.
19:04Yeah.
19:04Fourth gear is perfect.
19:06That's all you need around here.
19:07Yeah.
19:07But it's been this slow on the track.
19:09So they just thought it wide open all the way around.
19:12Yeah.
19:14So the, yeah, I finally got the small helmet, but they assigned me to the 34 car, which has
19:20been the slowest car on the track every time.
19:24And the only advice people have really given me is don't get that car.
19:27So we'll see how it goes.
19:28I guess there's only one gear, but at least it's fourth.
19:31So I guess I'll just have to pin it.
19:42We just did driver introductions.
19:45We're going to take a group photo about the cars and then we start it.
20:08Well, out of all the celebrities about half of them stalled.
20:11So Lindsay, good job.
20:23I don't think anyone's faster, actually.
20:25Maybe the kid from Malcolm in the Middle has got some pretty good experience.
20:28And Maddo, I mean, he raced in X Games.
20:31She's got some pretty good competition, but she's got this field right here in this six
20:35handle.
20:36I don't know what to do with myself.
20:37I don't know what to do with my hands.
20:38I definitely can't help her in like that kind of stuff.
20:41I'm the worst coach ever.
20:42So I think I'll, I might go occupy myself somewhere else.
20:48Oh my God.
20:50Don't yank it.
20:51Don't yank it.
20:52The best thing I've ever seen in my entire life.
20:55Far back.
20:55Far back.
20:56Far back.
20:59No blood.
21:00Oh, that's good.
21:02There's nothing.
21:04More.
21:05Ah, NASCAR.
21:06This is so great that my wife is actually the athlete today and I can hang out with the
21:10locals.
21:11All right.
21:13You got to get the head shake, okay?
21:15If they come in like this, it's a smack and a knuckles.
21:19If they come in like this, you got to go like...
21:21You see, you got to read your opponent.
21:23I thought Travis came here to support me and watch me.
21:27I'm always supporting him and his NASCAR stuff.
21:30And he's just not partying and he doesn't even want to hang out with me.
21:36It's a normal handshake.
21:39Travis!
21:41Your motorhome, let's go to his motorhome.
21:43Australian rules!
21:45America!
21:56We see a Bradley leave now.
21:57I found one.
22:00We're walking with us.
22:01Travis, we need one throw.
22:03One throw.
22:04Travis, first up, boys!
22:08Let's go!
22:09Let's go!
22:10Let's go!
22:11Let's go!
22:12It's a NASCAR!
22:14You've got to be in front of the car.
22:16Let's go!
22:27He's going as fast as anyone.
22:28He's wide open all the way around the track.
22:30So it's awesome.
22:34So the results are in.
22:37I got 10 out of 29.
22:40I'm so glad I did this.
22:42It was a lot.
22:43It's just been a long day.
22:44I have a lot more respect for Travis and what he does.
22:47You know, having to qualify and then signings and media and driver's meeting and this and
22:52that and whatever and it's just such a long thing that I can definitely see how he gets
22:58so tired.
23:00On the next episode of On Pace Pastrana, we hang out with Jimmy Johnson and do a stunt
23:05that Nitro Circus wouldn't let us do.
