00:00 >> All right.
00:01 For back-to-back years, it's Noah Gregson that takes home the fan vote for the NASCAR
00:03 all-star race.
00:04 You'll be racing in the main event later this evening.
00:07 What can you say about these fans that have continued to support you and now get you in
00:10 the race for another all-star race?
00:12 >> Yeah, we were close.
00:13 Finished fifth in that race.
00:14 Just probably need to make better adjustments.
00:17 But super thankful for all the fans.
00:19 You guys are what keeps us here.
00:22 Second year in a row.
00:24 When Cedric got into us down the front stretch, I was like, oh, man, I hope I didn't tear
00:28 this thing up too bad.
00:30 It's all right.
00:31 Just a few scuffs.
00:32 But appreciate you fans.
00:34 This is such a cool event.
00:36 Place is packed out.
00:37 And we're going to go race for a million bucks tonight.
00:40 It's a privilege to be able to race in this deal.
00:42 And two years in a row, I can't say enough about you fans.
00:46 You guys are awesome.
00:47 >> It hasn't been done since Kasey kahne did it to win the fan vote and then go on to win
00:50 the all-star race.
00:51 What do you need after filling your car in that 100-lap shootout there for the open?
00:55 >> Yeah, definitely need to be able to just enter the corner hard, charge the entry without
01:02 just having to chase it on the wheel and super free, super loose, just chattering the right
01:06 rear tire.
01:07 So that's kind of a hindrance to us right now.
01:11 But a little 100 laps there, a little test in tune.
01:14 Hopefully we'll make some better adjustments and go on into the main.
