[upbeat music] Hello everyone, welcome back to Sub Par with Colt Knost and Drew Stoltz. And before we get going here, one of our longtime sponsors, partners, Zone Nicotine. Um, through them we were able to meet an incredible man in Kyle Busch, who, uh, who lost his life this past week at just 41 years of age. And we just wanna send our thoughts and prayers to the Busch family, everyone around Kyle. Uh, it was a, it was a tragic moment. Like I said, we, we got to spend some time around him with our friends over at Zone, going out in the sand dunes outside of Las Vegas, riding around in those crazy Polaris vehicles. Letting him scare the absolute shit out of us was one of the highlights of us on this podcast, in my opinion. The video was fantastic. He was with us at the Ryder Cup. Um, such a great dude. I mean, nicknamed Rowdy, and uh, he lived up to the reputation, man. He was a NASCAR legend, but more importantly, just a great dude, and thoughts and prayers to him and his family. Um, I thought a really cool move sleaze by NASCAR, who announced after his passing that his number 8 is gonna be retired until his son, Brexton, who's 11 years old and already has 150 wins racing, until he is- it's t- the time is for him to move to NASCAR, he will be the only one that can represent that number. But just a tragic day, man. I know we were all shocked when it happened, uh, but I thought a real classy move there by NASCAR doing that.
