THE "LATE SHOW" TOP TWELVE "Top Twelve Reasons I Love Racing"

For the first time in the history of the Late Show with David Letterman broadcasts, tonight’s Late Show Top Ten is instead a Top Twelve, presented by the 12 NASCAR drivers in the Chase for the Nextel Cup. The following list will air on the Wednesday, Sept. 12 broadcast of the Late Show with David Letterman, seen weeknights (11:35 PM/12:37 AM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network.]

12. Clint Bowyer: “We’ve got special mirrors that show objects the size that they actually are.
11. Kevin Harvick: “Sometimes back in the garages there’s horseplay with the airhose.”
10. Jeff Burton: “Between the G-forces and the fumes, I’m loopy most of the season.”
9. Kyle Busch: “Switch the ‘R’ and the ‘C’ in ‘Racing’ and you get ‘Caring.’”
8. Matt Kenseth: “Can hold 8 gigs of music on my new iHelmet.”
7. Martin Turex, Jr.: “In a pinch, checkered flags make a lovely tablecloth.”
6. Denny Hamlin: “Two more wins and I get to marry Ashley Judd.”
5. Kurt Busch: “You can talk to your car and pretend you’re David Hasselhoff.”
4. Carl Edwards: “How many people can say their “office” goes 200 miles per hour.”
3. Tony Stewart: “Driving fast and starting fights.”
2. Jeff Gordon: “It’s not one of those sports you have to inject stuff in your ass to be good.”
1. Jimmie Johnson: “Unlike most guys, I like it when my wife says, ‘You’re too fast.’”

The Late Show with David Letterman is a presentation of Worldwide Pants Incorporated. Barbara Gaines, Maria Pope, Jude Brennan and Rob Burnett are the executive producers(CBS PR)(9-12-2007)

I swear some of these comments that the drivers have to say are getting worse, though some are quite funny as well.
The one Kyle says is the same one Mark said last year, I've noticed.
The one Denny says :eek:
Though i do like the ones that Burton, Truex, Stewart and Gordon have to say.

What do you guys think :?:

They picked the right one for Stewart. :p :

Some are funny but some are sorta stupid. A few just dont fit the driver. I like Burton's the best and think he is the type that could have fun with it.

I thought Matt's was clever. :D

I like the ones they had for the RCR drivers as well.
