Episode 3 Quotes:
(On whether or not Jimmie Johnson should be labeled “the greatest ever”)
Daugherty: I think they may be one of the greatest combinations (Jimmie and Crew Chief Chad Knaus) without question. Jimmie is a tremendous racecar driver. Greatest of all time? I don’t think so.
(On Danica Patrick)
Pemberton: If you’re telling me that a girl can come over here and kick Kevin Harvick’s butt week-in and week-out and be competitive I don’t think so. She’s 100 pounds!
(On Kyle Busch’s temper)
Waltrip: You have to be careful how you treat your crew so you’re comfortable with how they treat you back and he was bordering on making him mad.
