the hell out of me. No kidding.

Go ahead.

Come on.

Well, uh...

That's what I came for.

Mike!

Mike!

Oh, darling, darling.

Thank you.

You're crazy.

I know...

'Cause I love you.

I've been, you know,

I've been...

I know. Don't say it, darling.

Don't talk about anything

you did or what I did, ok?

Ok.

From now on, we start

all over again,

just you and me, ok?

Ok.

The only thing we don't change

is that we love each other, ok?

Ok.

As we near the end of lap

160 of the Charlotte 400

here's your Mike marsh

in the 28 car.

Dan McCall in car number 21,

holding down second place.

Hold it!

Ned arp in car number 3 has

just passed Dan McCall

in car number 21 to take over second place.

Arp is really pushing.

This could be the beginning of a

duel between the former teammates

of the pat kazarian team.

Arp has come a long way

in the past few months

having won two races in California

and the top race in Oregon.

Marsh still has almost a lap lead

and less than 40 laps to go.

And listen to this!

That last lap was run

in 36 seconds!

That means drivers

are reaching speeds

of nearly 175 miles an hour

on the back straightaway.

Ned arp is gaining on marsh

in the 28 car.

He just lapped two more cars.

Arp seems to be

pushing too hard.

This might turn into a battle

between the former rookie, ned arp,

and the master smoothie, Mike marsh.

But I don't think so, because marsh

knows every trick in the book

to hold off the driver

on the charge.

We'll just have to wait and see.

How's it going?

He's running second.

He's...

Keep your eye on ned arp in the 3 car.

He's really charging,

doing a fine job of driving

as he moves down

through the pack.

You can bet marsh is

watching him all the way.

Here's trouble.

Car number 39 lost control.

Ned arp has lost control.

He's end over end

down the straightaway.

Emergency crews are moving in.

This is the most

spectacular crash

I have ever seen

at Charlotte raceway.

- I gotta go now.

- Julie, there's no point.

I have to go.

Find out when there's a plane

leaving and get me a ticket.

We can only hope ned arp

isn't seriously injured.

I told them I didn't

want to see anybody.

I know.

They told me,

and I waited a week.

But you had to make sure.

Alright. Take a good look.

That's right.

It's gone!

It went out with the rest

of the hospital garbage.

Coffee grounds, egg shells, an old

lady's kidney. Are you satisfied?

You can tell pat you saw

for yourself. Go on, tell him.

Pat said to tell you...

Oh, I know.

He's sorry?

Sure, he's sorry.

He said to tell you

if you need anything...

Oh, isn't that nice.

Generous old pat.

He's generous and he's

kind and he's sorry.

Julie, you sorry, too?

Mm-hmm.

That's one of the

reasons why I came...

To tell you that I'm sorry.

And, uh...

I was going to ask you to let me stay.

But I'm not going to.

You're going to have to ask me.

You can say that

after what I've done?

How can I ask you with this?

You're going to have to.

Julie.

Don't go, please.

I won't go.

I promise.

I won't ever go.

Oh, I made a fool out of myself.

A damn fool.

Oh, no, no, no, don't talk about it.

I have to. What

am I going to do?

You can do exactly

what you want to do.

You're crazy. How can I drive like this?

You can drive. I know you can.

I know you can.

I know you can.

We're in lap number 48

and well on our way

to a new record

here at riverside raceway.

It's Dan gurney in

the 121 car in first place.

And ned arp in the 27 car,

running second.

A great job of driving by ned

arp going through turn 6.

Here's Mike marsh

in the 28 car running fourth.

And here's Dan McCall

in the red 21 car

holding down fifth place,

slowly working his way

through the pack

after getting off to a real slow start.

Uh-oh! Sam Stanley in car

number 17 has started to spin.

Sam is going completely around,

partly up the bank and

taking off the track markers.

There goes gene Davis

in car number 5,

off the track

and into the outfield.

A beautiful job of control.

All other cars

through the turn ok.

Uh-oh! A.J. Foyt's losing it

in turn number 7,

spinning halfway around,

traffic going by...

And there he goes,

heading down the back straightaway.

A really beautiful save

on any man's race course.

Out of turn 9, Billy cantrell in the 53 car

down the main straightaway

here in front of the tower.

Into turn 1,

he's going too fast.

He's lost it.

The crowd is moving back.

He's up on the bank.

He's ok.

Rod Tyler off the course and

lost in a cloud of dust.

Your attention, please.

Today's race is the first

of the season.

The next nascar

championship race

will be

at Daytona beach, Florida.

And the week after

that, Watkins Glen.

And then the 500 at Daytona.

Not to mention

tire testing in between.

It's a hell of a way

to make a living.

Look out. A.J. Foyt is going

too fast for turn 9.

Looks like he's lost his brakes.

Look out! He's heading

for the infield.
