It took a lot of guts for him to come on your show. I may not always like him but I respect him.
Kudos to Brian Carter. Stepping up on short notice, and didn’t evade a single question.
Kenny, you da man. Excellent interview. No softball questions here.
Right is right just as wrong is wrong. WOO will be better for doing what’s right for the sport. Thanks Brain for standing for right!
That’s a good CEO. I may not agree with everything WRG does, but they are playing this one straight.
Gained a lot of respect and understanding about the process. Kudos to Carter for addressing in a direct way.
I don’t know Brian Carter, meaning I’ve never heard him speak before today but I sense he’s a man of integrity.
If these guys & girls can’t win without manipulating tires, well then they just can’t win. And if they can’t repent so to speak. They need to be permanently suspended from the sport.
Like 98% of the time Kenny, that was a great interview.
I like Bobby Peirce too. But I 100% stick behind you Brian! Your an awesome stand up guy!
Thank you Kenny and Brian for that interview. Keep up the great work Brian with your business.
FANTASTIC interview, Kenny!
Thanks for “De-Bullshitting” this whole thing.
Brian earned a lot of respect in how straightforward and transparent he was.
Thanks! 👍🏻🏁🏁
Eliminated the vendors at the track?😮 kurt stiles
Keep doing what you do!
We don't want cheating in any motor sport. They make bad decisions, and you have to tell them what they are doing is wrong. Makes you a stand-up guy to the fans that really care.
thank you Herm, thank you Brian!!!
Wow! What a stand up guy who knows up from down and is not afraid to do an interview!! We need more CEO’s like him!!
Kudos to Brian Carter for explaining his position.
Great interview. I love that he is taking ownership. The skipper is responsible for everything that happens on their watch.
Nice job Kenny. Brian was very open. Thanks for informing all of us!
Thanks so much for the awesome, informative show Kenny. You and Brian certainly answered many questions for me concerning the sequence of events and the protocols associated with the test failures. I’m a 62 year old life-long race fan with the late models on the dirt being favorite. Thanks to you and Brian for explaining. Keep up the good work Herman. I’ve watched you and your brothers on the track all of your careers and I also watch every CZcams episode. Blessings to you and yours Kenny. 👍🏻
Don't like or dislike him but respect him for providing as much transparency as possible.
Show us the results on paper
Great interview and really good info. From reading the comments, you can tell that some didn't listen to all of it or understand what is being said.
That was a good episode Kenny. However, after reading several comments, it appears that many people don’t know what a mass spectrometer is and how specific it is for individual chemicals - that might be a good topic for a future Kenny Conversation.
I appreciate the opportunity to listen to the WRG CEO and have a lot of respect for him and how he explained the tire test process, keep up the good work 🏁
Thanks for getting that interview Herman!!
He made a great point where the best cheat is in qualifying. Things are so bad that you can't typically "race" in to a feature, you have to start near the front to finish up front.
I've always been impressed with Brian's professionalism and poise. He has a darn tough job.
This was a great interview. I hope this gets out to all the racers. Sounds like good policing to me. I kinda wondered how specifically things were taken care of in that department. Best interview yet Kenny! This interview alone should help draw possible spectators in for the storyline here.
What does that do for those who finished behind them for the specific races where the tires were prepped?
Thank you for doing your job! I love dirt track racing! Keep it as fair as you can! I'm behind you 💯 👍
Brian don’t stop staying on top of things it’s best for the teams and keeping more teams running thanks for the interview
Pine Sol, wintergreen, wd-40, Simple green can all be used to dope the tire rubber. Only way to prevent it is to have spec wheels and tires as Kenny stated before.
Herman this was one hell of a damn good interview and it was an interview that needed to happen, so that it will calm down a bunch of yahoos and speculators and bring light to some of dirt racings rules and the rules are in place to be followed like it or not 🤷🏿😆👍🏻🏳️🏁
thanks you'all!! this was needed!!
Great interview! Thanks
Integrity and trust are vital in anything you choose to do in life. Man up when you screw up. Hold fast to your integrity for it can be your savior if falsely accused or your adversary if you lied. Only you and God know the truth. Great interview.
Great job, nice interview by both. Only thing that would have been nice to find out. How do they determine who gets tested on a certain night. Random draw, certain place on each night. If they did 67 tires over all the nights over 3 divisions and some feature, heat and qualifying tires.
Great show. I’m not a big fan of dirt racing but y’all have shed a light on a sport that really isn’t in the spotlight light.
That was a damn good interview!
Jimmy Owen's was hinting last year this was happening, I'm glad hes trying to stop it
he got caught a few years back for the same thing
Look what Ray Scott did with the Bassmasters. Rules need to be inforced. If you let up on anything, there goes the integrity of the sport! This is a great interview. Enforce the rules!
Thank you, Brian. I want to have everyone running on an equal playing field.
Time for drivers and teams to man up and accept the consequences of cutting corners. Stop whining and move on. Sorry, shit happens and that is that. I get it Herman and want the racing to go forward. Thank you , cheers Herminator.
After watching several interviews with Brian i have all the faith in the world in this guy he sure seems to have the best interest of racing in mind when operating all his series and i think his contribution to dirt racing is monumental and under appreciated, dirt racing is flourishing right now and he deserves a lot of the credit in my opinion.As racers (35yrs) we all look for advantages if you havent tried to bend/ break the rules you havent been racing long enough watch the interviews with the ex racers and their stories of cheating are endless they usually smile from ear to ear when telling them ,its part of the culture.Design a series, while doing so think of the ability to tech efficently and accurately if you find a violation penalize accordingly and move on.its always gonna happen in racing and life in general, getting caught is embarrasing im sure but apparently not enough to stop it!! The problem i have is when racers including you gasp and act all surprised about this stuff its actually comical EVERYBODY has tried something sometime that could be considered cheating weather they admit it or not, and of course its extremly easy for non racers to jump on and say oh id never do that, Bullshit !! How many times have you heard a new guy wanting to start racing or start his kid racing and they say oh we just wanna have fun we dont care about winning we just always liked it running good isnt important blah blah! then talk to em a year down the road and theyd sell their soul to run up front no one likes to get beat, its no fun at all so you try anything you think can get ya there !! Then throw money /fame in the mix and we all know what happens then!
Wow what a great interview thanks
It's not cheating till you get caught.
No driver will ever admit guilt.
Plain and simple.
Great interview Kenny. I love that WoO is being open about the process. I wish NASCAR would be this transparent with their process.
Great Show SIR
wow great interview
great job kenny. answered all my doubts and questions.
Went to the Woo sprint car race in Kennedale Tx. It was near 3am when i got home. No fault of the Series they ran there cars through pretty darn quick once the track got the lights back on. A transformer blew and it was a 2.5hr delay. And this was my first time seeing them race and what a show they put on. Carson Mecido (sp) was the winner and set the track record fast time. Also not one driver was to busy to not give me an autograph. Also talked for few min. and they actually asked me about track conditions. I told them it usually got dry slick but the amount of rain and as wet as they had it before the race i didn't think it would slick off. I have had a few laps around it in a stock car only. Great guys each and everyone of them.
Great coverage Kenny,and thank you Brian ! I swear in 30 days or 4 events, I hope Bobby wins fair!
Mass spectrometers are nothing more than taking the DNA from materials and giving you the information. What’s the debate? Follow the rules race hard try not to be stupid. Good info guys great job Kenny God bless.
I had questions but this video answered them.
Dick Trickle - "Ya gotta wanna." But, if they are cheating with the tires, what else are they cheating at?
best interview on this! Thanks Kenny!
Thank you Kenny and Brian!
Kenny thanks for getting the skinny on this answered a lot of my questions.
The reason its so much drama is because the past champion is still denying that he did anything wrong. Im of the opinion that the data doesnt lie so I call Bullsh@T and he should really be suspended longer.
Herman that was awesome so good to the point no b.s. you da man love it dope them Hoosier lol
Why not pull samples off of every single car in the A main before the race ever starts? Then just send in your top finishers to be tested. That takes half of the argument right out of it. Especially if it’s just a grooving iron sized sample, that sample, will not affect performanc, and you’ve done it to every single car about to start the race.
Allow any tire compound and brand of tire??? What do I think about that?
Totally agree with what you said
🎉Kenny is the best
Thank you, Kenny! You are the man Herm!
Kenny if you take your modified and qualify. Pull in and put 2 coats of creosote on em and qualify again. Betcha 50 bucks you'll be wanting your tires doped. They learn all that racing go karts
Great job Kenny this is one reason I love watching your videos ❤
Kenny good episode. A couple of questions I would like to know the answers to.
1. Why can’t they come out with the chemical compound that was found in the test that made the benchmark miss? (I can guess the answer but would like to know officially)
2. The three tires that were outside the benchmarks-where were they in testing order of the over 60 that were tested? If they were tested together sequentially I would be more suspect of the findings.
What a great interview! Herm
Thanks kenny.that explained everything that I was questioning about the situation.. but there was 1 thing I heard swimming pools inside tires?? 🤔
No they were soaking their tires in water and a chemical at Volusia and tried to sell it as they were just washing tires
And they were using a kiddie pool to do it
Great show , he talked about checking 67 (I think was the number) , was that from other cars in that same race or just over time and does it really work that much better?
I didn't know who Brian was until last week when he was on with Kelly Earnhart! Now his in a massive shitshow, and being accountable for his actions and being honest! Great interview Kenny!
What scares me is a manufacture could try to change there tire so they can’t do it and we could have crap tires to run on until they figure it out
Herm, you didn't ask everything. I want to know how the samples are controlled from the time they are taken until they are tested? How do we know that the samples that failed were really from the 3 competitors that were accused?
I do have one question. Why if you see someone at your event selling these products are they not made to leave? Remove the temptation?
It's not illegal to have it but it's not allowed to be used.
That’s integrity! Good Decision, people start suspecting something when you win everything and drive away from the field which also have the best equipment out there.
I know tjis jas nothing to do with this video but kenny you are a goat man ive been watching you since i was 6 and happy to see you are still going, i hope one day i get to meet you in person!
That was a really good one kenny👍
This is called accountability. America lacks this tremendously. This is a stand up gentleman.
Can we just vote Kenny for president of all things racing?!?!
I've nevee been a huge wrg/ Carter fan because the way he speaks to us little guys. But this is the best interview I've seen him do. Wish he'd be like this all the time and not when Wallace puts him on the spot.
Nice work Herm
Are team’s making Tire softer? Is using a durometer accurate?
Good job Kenny 👍
Good leader right there doing what needs done no matter what , the kind of person you want running any company
Shannon Babb, I was at the World when it happened.
Great job Kenny. You know it going to happen tires or………. Lake hill or Daytona Bottom Line you did a good job for the racing community
Damn, i NEW about the OLD SCHOOL CHEATING but in current day!!! This is BULLSHIT & the CHEATERS should be suspended for the ENTIRE SEASON!!!
Very impressed with this interview Kenny!!!
Hi I know you follow motocross Super cross I would like to ask you a question would tire doping be a thing in motocross. Honda Jett Lorance hole shots almost every race at Daytona Super cross on the line of the 450 main changing Jett’s tire before the main is this a thing or not ? Thanks
Why would they let people sell illegal products at the race track?
This is the best interview yet Kenny!! Very upfront on everything except one thing. Nobody talked about the penalties enforced. I looked at BP's penalties and it does not near seem stern enough to me. BP is also claiming he didn't do anything to the tires so what is the real solution? To me he just seems oblivious to his penalties, is there a way his team put the chemicals on there and didn't say anything? I would assume that as a driver you always know what's put in or on your car. If it's less than 1% of drivers, penalize the hell out of them until they can play by the rules!! Even with the penalties given to BP he is still oblivious so that proves the penalties were not strong enough.
The John Force interview was the best.
MY VOTE
FACK around and findout
Should be rule #1
😂
I'm curious what cold soaking or hot soaking tires gains
You either test it or allow it rules are rules… there’s always someone out there that’s gonna push the limits on the rule book..
Geez Herm, I bet bob and Lil Bobby regret asking you to reach out to Brian now!!!
This interview sure didn't go the way they hoped it would 🤣
Kenny, should I inflate tires with Nitrogen or Compressed air?
Should teams be allowed to use heating blankets on tires or heating cabinets?
Can tire mfg treat tire so other chemicals will not penetrate without changing color of tire? Somewhat like the outer layer of F1 tire?
Question for mfg, can you ultrasound the tire to detect attempts to alter the chemistry of the rubber, as a quick field test, before sending samples to lab?
Maybe develop a mobile mass spectrometer
Great interview Kenny. One question is like everything in life if make 1000s of something there are bound to be bad ones. Could one of those be bad on a test? Just a thought I had that the tire was faulty. Not saying that there is no cheating, we all know better.
They test for chemicals that are not used in the tire making process and are not allowed anywhere in the Hoosier tire facilities
EXCELLENT!!
Everybody cheats, it’s just a matter of getting caught.
Everybody doesn't cheat.
That's just fine and dandy but when you get caught you man up and take your punishment. You say "I'm sorry, I got caught and I won't do it again".
If only Nascar would understand not playing favorites
Nascar is also a business, and fans pay a lot of money for hotels, time off work, flights / gas money to attend and they want to make sure drivers are at every race.
NASCAR sucks!
NASCAR fell off in the mid 2000’s
When people get beat they cheat! It’s in every sport! Sad to say, always will be. Kudos to that man for sticking with it.
i cant remember the last time they found a Outlaw sprint that had 'juiced" tarres
Interesting!
son! ya got 'em fired up! good!!
I soaked my tires in orange soda in the 90s imca mods. Always won. Does that still work?
