THE MODERATOR: Good afternoon, everyone, and thank you so much for joining us for first live NASCAR pre-show of the year. Due to rising gas prices and budget cuts here at Fox, we’re doing things a bit different this year. To tell us more about these exciting new changes, I have with me the Fox Sports Executive Producer Noah Flood. Noah, tell us what we’ll be seeing this year on NASCAR.
Noah Flood: Thank you all for joining us today. We’re really excited to get this season started. Having the fans back in the stands turns the race into an event. Of course if these fans aren’t in the stands they wouldn’t be able to watch it from home like the rest of the world as our newest form of NASCAR is now Amish NASCAR. Our hats are off to you creative people at Fox who came up with this great idea. I’m gonna hand the mic off to Dan Yoder, one of our senior executives in the budget department to tell us more about it.
Dan, what can we expect to see this season?
Dan Yoder: That’s right Noah, this is going to be an exciting season here on Fox Sports. As you can see, can we get a shot of the track behind me, Jim? [Camera pans out to a wide view of the stadium and the dirt track.] As you can see, we’re starting our season in good old, Sugarcreek, Ohio. Now none of our drivers have ever driven on this track, well maybe some of our new drivers this season like Sam Miller or Abraham Yoder (no relation) have but guaranteed our seasoned vets like Kyle Busch and Chase Elliot or any other NASCAR driver you’re familiar with has ever driven on this track.

I’m pumped for this weekend and can’t wait for the races to start. Dale, I’m gonna hand the mike over to you.
Dale Earnhardt Jr.: This is usually where I’d tell folks that I’m excited to get back behind the wheel and how I miss the thrill of racing, but to be honest, I think this time around I’m gonna leave it to the younger generation. I’m no longer under contract, thank god, so I can sit this one out and just change the channel. Also,
Noah Flood: Thanks Dale, I’ll take it from here.
Dale Earnhardt Jr.: I wasn't done talking.
Noah Flood: That's okay, Dale, we get the idea. I'll take it from here.
As you can see folks, it’s gonna be a thrilling, exciting time this season on Fox Sports. Just keep the beer stocked up, the chicken wings piled high, the nacho cheese flowing and the pizza hot and you’ll love this season just as much as you did last year, if not even more.
Be sure to tune in early on Sunday to see the horses and buggies and meet the teams, you won’t wanna miss this.
Everyone: Watch Fox, it’s gonna be a [Bleep] Show, you won’t wanna miss
Dale Earnhardt Jr.: At least if you’re drunk enough you won’t notice the difference but if you do, who cares, right?
Everyone: Don't forget this Sunday at 1pm the fun begins, can't wait to see ya there!
