Just spent about an hour with King Kenny on the phone! Tank Slappin Podcast So much stuff that I never knew. So much more to the TZ that nobody ever knows. I said I’ve never read that and he quoted and said “well you’re the first one to ask me these questions”
BADASS!!! My first childhood hero. He was a household name growing up. Pops and I met him in Indy one year and pops was telling him about seeing him race at the old DRC track when he was still a Junior. They were swapping stories about racing in the early to mid 70’s. He doesn’t often seem that approachable, but when you break the ice he like telling stories. Those guys racing the 200 on those old shitty Good Years going 180+ was insane.
Ok just one. so my Robby Bobby segment is a quick one called “man, fuck that guy” basically who’s the racer in the pits that you wouldn’t even loan a spark plug to. Someone who you wouldn’t piss on if they were on fire. Someone who you wouldn’t help with a fucking thing. his response basically: I never really had those guys cause if help anyone because I knew I was going to beat them anyways. Lol the outright big dick confidence that he’s got in all his responses. We were supposed to only get 1/2 hour with him due to his busy schedule. He legit was over double our time cause he enjoyed it so much. you can see what topics REALLY fired him up.
There are 98270450 politically correct, respectful podcasts to choose from. We are edgy, boundary pushing, and fun. Like I said, he was originally only going to give us half hour which when you listen, we just kept going and we weren't about to stop him once he got fired up on a topic. As far as when, should be a day or two. Thats above my paygrade.

LOL! "fuck that guy" . That's hilarious. Someone you wouldn't even give a bottle of water if they were passing out from dehydration in the pits...
"Wouldn't piss in his mouth if his throat was on fire". I know a few guys like that. Never anybody from the paddock though. Looking forward to the podcast.
