4:03 am
nascar fan, but if you haven't been to a nascar race, the minute you go to one and you hear the roar of the engines, it gets you. be careful. guy: i've never if actually been a huge nascar friend, but i think you're absolutely right. i mean, listening in the last hour to your interview, just the lineup of stars they've got putting on the show, then all that firepower or horsepower on the track, it's just exciting, the adrenaline probably gets pumping, that mess -- that's my guess. rachel: the other thing you like about it, there are no more patriotic fans than nascar fans. guy: for sure. pete: absolutely. rachel: and they really cater to that crowd, and that's another reason why i think pete loves it too. pete: absolutely. they say, they sing the national anthem, everyone stands, they say a prayer, there's reverence for the country and each other. and then the race starts, you put your headphones on, take your shirt off and wave it above your head. it's a lot of fun.

it's all with friends. rachel: yeah. and i hear that you're going to be with the mclemores which when we go to the nascar races, my favorite part is just after the show we go hang out at the rv that the mclemores have, and, you know, eat and drink and hang out. you get to do that today. pete: yes. the mclemore boys are here, they're headed in our direction right now bringing some great morning chow for the race, and they've been in the infield too. so we'll be looking for them. we will see them in a moment. rachel: all right. pete: from the race on the track here in day known that -- daytona, let's go to the race for the white house because there are some remaining presidential candidates hitting the trail, and they're hitting it this weekend. guy: former president trump and nikki haley both making stops in states with upcoming primaries as a president biden appears to make another gaffe in front of reporters. rachel: imagine that. madeleine rivera joins us live in washington with more. good morning, malled lin. >> reporter: good morning. president biden is spending the weekend in rehoboth beach,
4:05 am
delaware, but he did speak with volodymyr zelenskyy on saturday. the president telling a pool of reporters congress must pass funding for ukraine, saying that the united states' own security depends on it. the issue the white house feels is even more pressing now after the death of russian opposition leader alexei navalny. it's more proof, they say, of vladimir putin's brutality. the president in his comments though appeared to confuse ukraine with nato. listen. >> so the idea that we're going to walk away from ukraine, the idea that we're going to let nato begin to split is totally against the interest of the united states of america. so it's about time we make sure that congress come home and pass the legislation funding nato. >> reporter: in the wake of navalny's death, gop presidential candidate nikki haley has ramped up her criticism of former president trump who she says has repeatedly embraced putin. she's confident she still has a
4:06 am
path to clinching the republican nomination. >> let's just talk about where we are in the race right now. there were 14 candidates, and we've defeated a dozen of the fellas. i just have one more fella la i gotta catch up to. [cheers and applause] >> reporter: trump, who remains the firm front-runner in the gop primary, did not mention navalny's death during a rally in michigan, focusing on the southern border instead. >> and i will tell you, the biggest threat to your unions is millions of people coming across the border. because you're not going to have your jobs anymore. >> reporter: trump also made a stop at sneakercon in philadelphia where he unveiled a sneaker line. the gold trump-branded shoes were sold in limited supply for $399 a pair. guy, rachel and pete. rachel: thank you so much, madeleine are. >> reporter: thanks, guys. pete: i may or may not have gotten a pair for my wife. don't tell her. i'm going to leave it as a
4:07 am
teaser. she's not up yet, so she won't know. the tempt thing. rachel: pete, i saw some gold ones, and i also saw some white ones with a gold t. i think it's so interesting in this market at all, those could have been yeezy sneakers, but they're trump sneakers. a lot of people texting me abous texting me saying they want a pair. pete: yeah. young people. they're expensive. a little bit more expensive, but what do you expect? i think there's a thousand, is what they said, for sale at least initially. we'll see. interesting to listen to that nikki haley sound bite. she's, she says she still has a path, there's still a path. that's ooh, like, me talking to richard chill depress in a moment of rcr racing and saying you still need a driver, right? i'm good on the freewa do u need me? because i could go on the track today. it's about the same likelihood of her winning the nomination. her premise at this point is
4:08 am
having fani willis or what's happening in new york city work. she would need trump to be taken down legally multiple peg, and that's always been the premise of other candidates. interesting to hear all this debate about russia, navalny and all that, but it's white noise. we know who the candidates are at this point, at least if they keep joe. we'll see about that. guy: nikki haley's sticking around, amassing delegates, she's got the big contest next weekend in her home state, and i think that might be clarify being. she's drawing crowds, she does is have support. we'll see what happens. we know what the polls are showing, obviously. rachel: yeah. i think that, i think we're going -- i think that trump will probably -- we'll be there, we'll see. sounds like trump's going to wrap this up over there. pete: we will be there, that'll be interesting. rachel: yeah. and we're excited to go there as a team, will, pete and i and also the weekday team will be there on friday as well. it is interesting to hear, you know, so much of our political elite ares talking about what's going if on in russia.
4:09 am
you know, you had dan hoffman on earlier or talking about the protesters who were arrested in moscow yesterday trying to, you know, sort of carry on the message of navalny. but we have protesters here who have been arrested, many of them probably deserved loitering tickets, some of them sitting in our own prisons in washington d.c. we have the same kind of, you know, concerted, you know, organized effort to take donald trump, the front-runner, off of ballots, out of the race, tie him up in court cases so he can't concentrate on his campaign. so just interesting to me that we focus so much on what's going on in other countries when we have our own sort of police state, censorship and sort of organized efforts to take out the opposition in our own country. i just think that a lot of americans are saying we need to be focused on what's going on in
4:10 am
america. interestingly, on the democrat side you have representative rashida tlaib saying, no, no, no, let's talk about gaza. here she is telling her own party voters that maybe they shouldn't vote for the democrats in the upcoming state primary. listen. >> also important to create a voting bloc, something that is a bull horn to say enough is enough. we don't want a country that supports wars and bombs and destruction. we want to support life. we want to stand up for every single life killed in gaza. this is the way you raise our voices. don't make us even more invisible. right now we feel completely neglected and just unseen by our government. if you want us to be louder, then come here and vote uncommitted. pete: so the rashida tlaibs and the squad, the hamas caucus of the democrat party is emblematic, and the reason this matters is multiple reasons, but
4:11 am
one, michigan's a swing state where these votes are going to matter. and, two, while it may seem like a swing vote right now, an increasing amount of young people see the world through this anti-western lens that rashida tlaib does. so it's a growing base of the democrat party. so joe biden's got a problem of turning away muslim voters or far-left-wing voters in michigan, but i've also talked to some jewish democrats, democrats who are jewish who also say, hey, i don't like where they're starting to turn in that direction of my support of the democrat party either. so you can get pinched, guy, in both directions in a key state. guy: if you listen to rashida tlaib and she said what she just said e, just keep in mind our colleague here at fox, hillary vaughn, asked her repeatedly in the halls of congress to condemn hamas if' decapitation of babies. she wouldn't do it. and just the other day she was the only member of the house not to vote to condemn hamas' sexual
4:12 am
violence and and rape. that's her view on all of this. and if you want to follow that lead, by all mean, i would sprint in the other direction personally. we'll see what the voters do in michigan very soon. let's turn to some headlines soon because we're going to press on, and we were just talking about that situation in russia. prison officials say alexei navalny died from sudden death syndrome. sure. navalny's allies are now demanding russian authorities release his body to his family. former cia station chief dan hoffman, who served in moscow, joined us earlier to explain how navalny's death could show weakness inside the kremlin. >> he told them that if something were to happen to him, if he were killed, it would demonstrate the weakness of the regime. and he emphasized that truth is power. [speaking russian] , he said in russian. and i think that is going to be his legacy. guy: hundreds of people have been detained in russia for paying their respects to navalny. this new body cam footage showing the moment a florida deputy saved a six-month-old
4:13 am
baby trapped after a car crash earlier this month. >> is the baby okay? >> no! >> send ems. >> my baby! is he dead? is he dead? [background sounds] guy: oh, my goodness. the child was trapped in the backseat after law enforcement say officials rather say a motorcycle slammed into that car going more than 100 miles an hour, but she started breathing after first responders administered cpr, thank god. deputies say the baby is on a long road to recovery. we all pray for that. and yesterday, on a lighter note, we mentioned how a new dating app requires people to use their credit scores to sign is up, an interesting approach. now some people are sprinting towards a new dating trend, enjoying running clubs saying dating apps are not cutting it.
4:14 am
one psychologist saying people are suffering from data app fatigue, getting burnt out from swiping and matching, so they're hitting the road and running. that seems a lot healthier in multiple ways. rachel: in every way. we've talked about this repeatedly, pete. you know this on the show. sean and i have been saying you feed to date like the '80s. you actually need to talk to people, stop all the swiping, have your friends hook you up with their friends because they know you and they know that person. this is the natural way to meet people -- guy: in life, real life. rachel: real conversation. gave guy yes. rachel: yes. i think there is -- i'm glad this generation is starting to get tired of swiping. the other thing that a this generation is doing, pete, is they're -- they have a lot more slang words that are now getting introduced into the dictionary that all of us are going to have to start to catch up to. so can we go over some of these? pete: oh, great. rachel: all right. so up one of them is called the
4:15 am
ick. this is a phrase to describe an individual's distaste towards another person or entity. guy: so, for example -- pete: so, rachel -- guy: go ahead, pete. pete: no, no, please. guy bioi get the ick when i see rashida tlaib in that clip are we just plaid. that's just my two cents. pete: so i'm told in talking to a younger producer here too it's not always just a person, it's an attribute that'll give you the ick, because i didn't know about it. oh, i liked that person until they took their hat off, but it gave me the ick. or the way they, you know, whatever. it's, it's like the here e by gee byes or creepy maybe is what we used to say. rachel: the cooties? pete: cooties, yeah. rachel: okay. guy: here's another one, mid. it's gen-z slang suggesting mediocrity or something that's not very impressive, maybe disappointing. there was actually a debate on
4:16 am
social media i think right around the barbie movie out whether margot robbie -- rachel: that discussion was had on this couch, by the way. [laughter] guy: it's crazy. not mid, but that is how the word is used. rachel: i'm not going to tell you what pete said on that one. guy: uh-oh. of. [laughter] pete: i think mid. but, you know, whatever. that's fine. to each their own. guy: uh-huh. [laughter] if. pete: to each their own. rachel: next one is buff, a sin mom for feeling -- sin mom for feeling great, wonderful. the next one is bed rotting which means you're spending an excessive amount of time in bed. can i share with you a couple words that my kids use that i kind of learned? if one is glow-up, which i really like this one because i see it with teenagers. they're kind of going and all of a sudden they wake up one morning and it's like, oh, my
4:17 am
gosh, you had a glow-up. guy: the awkward phase is over -- rachel: and now he's blossoming. the other one is sus, which means that's kind of suspicious. guy: bed rotting is kind of what i think i did after the show yesterday. i'm not used to the 6-10 a.m. slot. it's a marathon, not a sprint. i got back to the motel, it's time for a nap. so i did some bed rotting yesterday with. rachel: bed rotting. pete: that is a legitimate morning show attribute, i think bed rotting you're supposed to stay in bed all day. by the way, another phrase i would add not to get serious, but they said navalny if died of sudden death syndrome? is that a -- suddenly you're dead? is that just, is that a real medical attribute or is that just like putin killed you -- i mean, i don't mean to make light of it, but it sounds like a made-up term of, hey, we assassinated the guy. rachel: i've heard of suddenly died a lot lately, that's online
4:18 am
a lot. guy: well, and that wasn't even a real excuse, right, from the kremlin. pete, to your point, they didn't come up with something plausible, they just brazenly said let's, let's put this out there, and people can draw their conclusions. the conclusions that i think they want with us us to draw, the obvious one. pete: yeah. rachel: all right. well, just ahead, seattle looks to solve its worsening homeless crisis by putting a shelter, get this, right next to a catholic high school. that sounds like a good idea. jason rantz is sounding off next. pete: plus, we're shifting into gear ahead of the daytona 500. nascar's harrison burton on how his family of racers helped him prepare for the road ahead. >> the lessons i learned watching him and my uncle both, the way they handled things, the way they went to work, what it takes to win, i think those really help me now today. pete: more on our behind the scenes look and so much more just ahead. ♪ ♪ -- living for friday.

suburb are petitioning against the construction of a $1 million homeless shelter right next to a catholic high school. it come as the state struggles to keep up with its homeless problem with over 28,000 people now estimated living on the streets and an 11% increase from 2022. here with reaction is our friend seattle talk show host and author of "what's killing america," jason rantz. jason, so great to have you. so who would think that this was a good idea, to put a homeless shelter to a catholic high school with children? if. >> activist democrats. at the end of the day, this is not new, necessarily. we've seen instances in which we've either purposefully placed these encampments there, or we've seen just encampments pop up and city leaders choosing not to do anything about i. as we deal with this homelessness crisis, you basically have folks saying mostly within the left wing, far to the left side of the government basically saying anywhere we can put them is better than just having them
4:24 am
roam on the streets and living on sidewalks or in front of businesses. and i suppose there's some truth to -- we would certainly rather have them not live there, but puddleing them right next to a school just doesn't make any sense whatsoever. rachel: it's inviting problems, and it's going to tick off the parents which you can imagine you're sending your kids the a private school because you're trying to maybe even protect them from all the bad stuff in the public school, and then the city comes and puts a homeless shelter with people who are on drugs next to your school. it's just, there's just so many things in your city, jason, i just can't wrap my head around it. >> i know. rachel: it's like you have an endless amount of stories to tell. tell us about this next one because, apparently, there are interviews with a restaurant owner. he's been broken in -- his business has been broken into 23 times. he says he's finally losing faith in leadership. >> yeah. i'm at the point where where i've been dealing with this
4:25 am
restauranteur for a while now, and i remember first interviewing him when it was number 12. you have break-ins happening all the time. and, well, 23's obviously an anomaly, you don't have a business broken into that many times, but we've definitely seen lots of businesses getting broken into multiple times over the course of just a few week or a month. and the reason is actually quite simple, we don't put criminals in jailment the person who breaks into a business the first time around a, they see restorative justice programs in which we say, hey, we're going to put you into some nonprofit group that will try to take ownership of your life so that you're going down the right path. and on patient e it sounds really, really good. problem is these are nonprofits that are usually abolitionist groups, so they don't even care about getting the person on the right track. they just want to keep them the out of jail and ultimately end any kind of jail sentence. the problem is we keep doing this over and over and over again, so the person's never learning a lesson except, hey,
4:26 am
if i keep committing these crimes, i won't go to jail. that's the wrong lesson to learn. rachel: yeah. it sounds like the business owner gets hurt, and an ngo gets some money. that's what that sounds like to me. >> pretty much. rachel: are you seeing a massive exodus of businesses out of seattle, or do people just become, like, so depressed and resigned that they're just like, okay, this is the way life is? >> it's a little bit of both, and that's the unfortunate really -- reality. some of them are moving into different neighborhoods that are a little bit safer. some are still opening within seattle, and that's a real tragedy. there's a bakery that's set to open within the next few weeks. of it's already suffered its first break-in. and the thieves ended up stealing tens of thousands of dollars' worth of equipment, and so now this poor company is in a position like, what do we do? we don't have a spare $30,000 laying around for new equipment. so this is going to continue and continue and continue. and until people basically force a political change, we're not
4:27 am
going to see any differences. now, the one good thing is we have seen a new council take lead, they're more moderate. we'll see what direction they go. rachel: well, we'll see what happens. jason, the voice of reason in seattle. we appreciate you joining us this morning. >> thanks, rachel, appreciate it. rachel: all right. coming up, it was once billedded as a harmless smoking alternative, but new i studies are now shining a light on the very real risks of vaping. what you need to know next. to help you fall asleep more easily. it's gentle massage and relaxing sounds, help calm your mind, every night. for a limited time, save up to $500 on select tempur pedic adjustable mattress sets. i'll be honest. by the end of the day, my floors...yeesh. but who has the time to clean? that's why i love my swiffer wetjet. it's a quick and easy way to get my floors clean. wetjet absorbs and locks grime deep inside. look at that! swiffer wetjet. >> woman: what's my safelite story?

vaping, to some major risks from damage to blood vessels to permanent lung scarring, even inflammation. guy: let's talk about this with pulmonary critical care physician dr. cedric rutland. i want to go to the wall where we have this big graphic comparing some of the health risks and effects, smoking versus vaping. it seems like it's a myth that vaping has none of the risk, but perhaps reduced risk in some ways. what are we learning here? >> yeah, that's a great question. good morning, first of all. when you look at vaping, what we're discovering is that some of the same effects of cigarette smoke, the inflammation in the lung, the coughing, the stiffening of the arteries also take place with vaping because it turns out that a lot of the molecules that are produced from actually puffing a vape are the same that are produced from puffing a cigarette. rachel: yeah. and pit seems to me like -- and it seems to me like people who were smokers and think it's
4:33 am
actually healthier or vaping, they seem to be vaping a lot. maybe they are vaping more than they would be if they were just smoking. >> yeah. when you specifically look at this, people take the on average about 8 puffs per cigarette, but when they're vaping that cartridge, there can be, like, 300 puffs per day of that vape. so you're constantly hitting that cartridge which that has a little metal in it, and you're heating up that metal and inhaling these products that can cause a lot of health effects which we're now discovering. phi guy so not to put you on the spot as a doctor because some people are saying, well, if i'm going to do one or the other, is out preferable to vape? it seems like t not great east way with, but sort of a tag on here, and it seems like one of the common threads is addiction one way or another, right? >> yeah. i mean, addiction's definitely there, right? you have nicotine in both products, and that's the molecule that you become addicted to. when your looking at which one is less harmful, i can
4:34 am
understand individuals' thought that vaping isless harmful. -- less harmful. when you look at studies, people are more often able to quit smoking cigarettes if they use a vaping product. but it doesn't mean that the vaping product is less dangerous overall, right? overall, we're still finding that it causes a significant amount of lung inflammation, it can genetically alter some of the cells and perhaps these consequences can lead to the same consequences that cigarette smoke has led to. rachel: yeah. and there's been a lot more studies on cigarettes, not so much long-term studies on vaping, so that's another a unknown. doctor, let me just tell you what i'm hearing. i know people who i was a smoker, i'm a vapor, and they get the idea that this vaping isn't so great, and then they go to these nicotine patches that they put in their mouth. what do you make of that? that seems to be the trajectory. >> yeah. you're talking about these tobacco-specific nicotine pouches between your lip and sure gum.
4:35 am
rachel: yep. >> exactly. so those products actually have tobacco-specific ingredients that are hugely carcinogenic, and there's two different ones that are very car sin carcinogenic that are found in these pouches. and you really don't know how much nicotine you're getting, in some pouches it's up to 50 milligrams which can be toxic in some individuals. we're learning more and more, but i think that the common thread is people are trying to get that nicotine which is the addictive product, and as a result of trying to get that nicotine, they're also significantly affecting their health. rachel: yeah. whatever happened to just getting high on life, doctor? i'm with you. i hate all this stuff, so i'm glad we're getting the information out. we appreciate you joining us and giving us the medical reasons behind why people should get off these products. thanks so much. >> thanks for having me. rachel: great having you. guy: still ahead, secretary mayorkas was just impeached by house republicans, but he says he is unconcerned.

here in daytona. the daytona 500, which kicks off at 2:30 today. but for now, we're heading over to guy. guy: thanks very much, pete. you began those headlines on the border, so let's stick with that topic. dhs secretary alejandro major has has -- moye your cat -- mayorkas has been impeached over his handling of the worse worsening crisis. >> do you have a personal reaction to what happened in congress last week, being impeached? >> i don't let it disracket me from the work. would -- distract me. would i prefer that correctness have prevailed? of course so. the fact that it did not does not slow if me down in doing the work that i'm tasked to do by the president of the united states. >> they say you did not perform your duty as the secretary over immigrationment what is your response? >> it's what i've said previously, baseless educations -- allegations, no basis in fact, no basis many
4:43 am
law. guy: okay. so he's talked about correctness. let's discuss that with fox news contributor and former house oversight committee chairman jason chaffetz who joins us now here on set. jason, great to see you, as always a. >> yeah. glad to be with you. bye kentucky response there to the dhs secretary, kind of the per personification of arrogance. >> yeah, it's entour rating. he essentially says i'm going to continue to do what we continue to do. that's the definition of insanity. he's been there for three years. it's not working. by every single metric, it is upside down, and it can't continue, but that's what he's going to continue to do. guy: it's interesting, because i think it's understandable that house republicans are using him as not a scapegoat, but they're channeling all this frustration with that disaster down there to the man ultimately responsible for that, but he is someone who reports to someone else up the food chain, the president of the united states. is he kind of just carrying out
4:44 am
joe biden policy? isn't this a biden problem more than a mayorkas problem? because you get rid of mayorkas, let's just say, the next person's going to keep going with the same policy. that's really the fundamental issue. >> well, clearly, he's doing what joe biden and kamala harris want him to do, and it's not working. they opened up the border, it was much more secure before, and they opened up those borders. i guess what i can't get past with secretary mayorkas specifically is that there are some 85,000 kids, unaccompanied minors, that came across that border. now, this isn't republicans' fault. this isn't trump's fault. this isn't some problem with the law that needs to be fixed. they had 85,000 people, 12-year-olds, 13-year-olds, 8-year-olds, little boys and girls, and they don't know where they are. and you look at the problems with sex trafficking and the working conditions at some of -- the slave labor that they're put into. where are all these kids? and that, somebody's got to take responsibility for this. secretary mayorkas, that's his
4:45 am
job. the secretary of health and human services, that's his job. and so i think the republicans actually should have led with the can kids and talk -- the kids and talked about the kids because they have no idea where they are. guy: yeah. >> and i think we're going to hear horror stories for generations. guy: and i don't know if javier xavier becerra, hhs secretary, has been asked a single question on that topic. he doesn't seem to be anywhere. on the homeland security side is, nearly 2 million known gotaways. they have no idea, dhs, who's in this country or where those people are. >> no, they don't. and, look, by the tens of thousands now we have chinese nationals coming across the border. i saw this griff jenkins report down at the border, record surge of chinese migrants that are coming across the border. don't just think this is some lady in mexico who's trying to bring her kids across. oh, no. these i unaccompanied minors, but a lot of aged males that are in their 20s and 30s, sickle, by -- single, by
4:46 am
themselves from countries that really don't want good things for the united states. phi guy we will hear more from griff jenkins on this program later on this morning, and then this evening in prime time, 7 p.m. eastern, it's the big weekend show. you're heavenning with that crew, one -- helping with that crew, one of four. >> yeah. it's going to be a great time and a lively group. it was last night and it will be tonight. 7:00. guy: it's a great show. 7:00 eastern time. jason, always good to see you with. let's check in with meteorologist adam klotz for our fox weather forecast. adam: good morning, guy. look what they gave me out on fox square, i've got a nascar. they said, guys, is there a heater in the here? could you turn this on for me? there's no heater in a a nascar. it would come in handy probably for a lot of americans this morning. let's talk about those temperatures. you're experiencing highs in the 20s in a whole lot of places. it's below freezing in atlanta, it's below freezing in dallasment some real cold air has a settled in.
4:47 am
otherwise, look at a some of the temperatures across the country and we are dealing with, yeah, cold temperatures and some big storms out there as well. you're looking at stormy conditions across portion of the southeast and across portions of the west. certainly something we're going to have to pay attention. to the other story continues to be is it going to rain. let's take you back out here on fox square. it does look as though it's going to be fairly soggy. i also am not noticing any windshield wiper, so we're going to have to wait and see if the weather holds out and we're going to be able to have this race. guy, back to you. guy: we are revving up for daytona. nascar's harrison burton gives pete a behind the scenes look into what it takes to prepare for the road ahead. that's next. ♪ >> let's go racing, boys! racing, boys.e fo♪ let's go racing ♪ ma, i wanna make perfume!

4:51 am
rachel: gentlemen, it's time to start your engines. the daytona 500 is today, and everyone is waiting to see how rain may impact the great american race. guy: pete is live from the speedway with an inside look at how drivers are getting prepped. pete: that's right. this is the super bowl, guys, the super bowl of nascar.
4:52 am
just happens to be at the beginning of their season. so, yeah, drivers are -- they've seen the forecast. they're not sure if this thing will go off today, but you've got to stay mentally prepared. a superspeedway like daytona where everyone's bumper to bumper and you're drafted off each other, it's scroll. you have to be mentally -- it's psychological. we had a chance to talk to one of nascar's youngest drivers, harrison burton. the 21 car. what he is it -- what's it like at daytona? he's had some interesting rah races here. here's what he said. [laughter] ♪ ♪ if. pete: so we're here at the garages with harrison burton, the 21 car. how you doing. >> i'm doing great. we're in daytona so can't be too bad with. pete: this is your third time running. how do you prepare? >> it's really hard. daytona's a lot different than most of the races we normally
4:53 am
run. a lot of times it's a little bit more spaced out, but here we're all so close to together, we're going to run in a big pack. pete: how do you psychologically and mentally prepare because this race hasn't ended well for you the last couple of times. you were running well but had some tough finishes. >> for sure, yeah. that's just part of it. you know there's a are risk of a crash especially in daytona, talladega. i barrel rolled down the back straightaway my rookie year. that was an interesting ride. but i was leading the race and running up front and it wasn't something i could control as much as more just the nature of the beast. pete: you've been racing since you were 2, right? >> yeah. my dad and uncle both raced in the cup series for a number of years, my uncle won the daytona 500, and my dad won over 20 cup races. i grew up watching those races. for me, it was really hard to get into racing because my parents wanted me to do something else and with my
4:54 am
own -- and be my own man. i kind of had to prove to my dad that i loved it and show that i was willing to work really hard for him to let me pursue it. the lessons i learned watching them, the way they handled things, the way they went to work, i think those help me now today, for sure. pete: what's different about some of the cars. >> this year we're rolling out with ford. that's a new top tier mold mustang that they brought out, and we wanted our race car to match that. so, you know, it's a different body style this year which is hopefully going to help us on the aerodynamic side of things and also it looks really good. pete: it's raining right now, this is the night before. the race may not go on. how do you prepare for that? >> yeah, it's hard. the biggest thing is understanding we're in florida, right in the forecast sayings we're not going to race, we're not going to race. and i've heard this so many times where everyone in the garage says no way we race, and all of a sudden the window opens up and we go with racing. so i always just stay as much focused onto the race time is
4:55 am
going to be when we start, and if it gets pushed back, it gets pushed back. i'd rather stay ready than have to get ready. pete: so starting and stopping, how do you handle that? >> yeah. with the rain, it could come and go anytime. hopefully, the rain doesn't deluge while you're on the racetrack, we've had that before on turn one where everyone wrecks because we lose grip so fast. [laughter] when it stops and starts, it's actually kind of nice because you get a chance to stretch your legs. i run over to the pit box, talk to my crew chief about what's a happened, what hasn't happened, and on the radio you can't talk about all those things as freely and long as you would like to, so you get a kind of mini debrief and get to go back in. pete: so, guys, he plays it cool, you know, but it's like a refer that goes across -- receiver that goes across the middle and knows he's going to get hit. do you stretch out and and make the grab? the thought of, hey, a wreck finish it's not a matter of if
4:56 am
you'll wreck, it's sort of when in the daytona 500 and and you're going 200 miles an hour. you've got to have your head right if you're going to lead from the front on that. rachel: i keep thinking he should be going down to the dmv to get his license, not to drive in the daytona 500. [laughter] he looks so young. but you know what in he sounds like such a great kid, i'm going to be rooting for him. pete: oh, to be young and reckless, right? i mean, he just wants the drive from the front and win. so pay attention to the 21 car and 22 will be at the pole today at the daytona 500, guys. rachel: awesome. finish. pete: 2:30 today. we hope it goes off. if it doesn't, it'll be running tomorrow. check it out on fox, and we'll give you the call if we get it. big show still ahead, more "fox & friends" just moments away. don't go anywhere. ♪ ♪ get all-day and all-night heartburn acid prevention with just one pill a day.
