One last question: is the beard your signature look now?

I wanted to shave it about three weeks ago but I had to try out for the Babbitt’s team and I was thinking the beard might make me more memorable. And it did, they wanted to hire me. It was a funny story. I have this big, lifted, jacked-up redneck truck and so I show up in California for this test in my truck and the AC is broke and I hop out with nothing on but cut-offs—no shirt or shoes—and a big ole beard. My hair is all messed up and they’re all like, “you showed up in this big redneck truck all lifted up, walking around barefoot with that beard and we were worried. Then you went out and hauled on the track and you’re a really cool guy, so you got the job.” Then I was going to shave before this race and I thought, “What the heck, keep it.”

Nicknames anyone?
