Episode 173: Daniel Dye

Ahead of his rookie Craftsman Truck Series season, GMS Racing's Daniel Dye joins Davey Segal (6:10) to discuss how he's been preparing throughout the off-season for his first year as a full-time NCTS driver. The two discuss Legacy Motor Club's transformation, Jimmie Johnson being a presence in the building, leaning on teammates Rajah Caruth and Grant Enfinger and how his 2022 ARCA Menards Series season ended. Plus, they discuss his time racing for Ben Kennedy on the late model side, how instrumental his dad has been in his racing career, realistic expectations for this season, what it'd mean to win at his home track of Daytona and what the deal is with his hairdo. Davey also recaps The Clash at The Coliseum, Martin Truex Jr.'s win after 38 winless weeks last year, the future of the exhibition event, why this version of the event was much more caution filled and Papa Segal pays homage to the No. 73.
