00:00 It was just super cool.
00:01 I was debating whether to do a burnout or not.
00:03 I usually don't do them, but I was really, really excited so I did one.
00:07 So yeah, that was a lot of fun.
00:09 But now it's a special feeling, especially like I said earlier,
00:12 when you can win here, it's really hard to do
00:15 and you have to appreciate those moments.
00:18 Why don't you get burnouts?
00:20 Oh you don't know?
00:22 Dale Inman pulled me aside one day and he said,
00:26 "Hey, you don't see the winner of the Kentucky Derby get off his horse
00:29 and start beating the s*** out of it."
00:31 [laughter]
00:35 So that's why I don't do burnouts.
00:37 I didn't do a burnout after one race and he was like,
00:39 "I like how you don't do burnouts."
00:41 And then he told me that story and I was like,
00:43 "Well, I'm definitely not."
00:45 He might be mad at me for doing one and breaking our rule,
00:47 but yeah, the Inman quote.
