Brad K got this from two spots, maybe his own team, but I think he is bringing the Penske principle. Roger Penske has always run his teams this way, whether it was NASCAR, IndyCar or sports cars, every aspect, whether it was the car itself, the trailers, the shop, the crew, the drivers, everything was presented that this is a professional organization and we take pride in every aspect of it. Effort Equals Results. That effort includes presentation.

Here after Chris' 3rd win of the season, Daytona. I'd say Brad's work is paying off. Go RFK!

Vince Lombardi, when taking the Head Coach job at Packers told his team at their very first meeting: "We will pursue PERFECTION, and along the way we will catch EXCELLENCE!". Wanting to be the best is a mindset, and it needs to attack every small and minor detail. If you cant get the small things right, you will never get the big ones even close. Kudos to Brad for bringing new rigor and discipline to Roush (now RFK).

Buescher seems an elite talent excited to see what he's capable of in top equipment, we already know how good Brad is

Chris and Brad together makes a great team both we’re struggling racers at one point but have the drive to be successful. Looking forward to more success.

The clean shop shows pride and lifts the employees up to take pride in their jobs.

I remember back in the late 80's when teams started getting big fancy shops, I saw an interview with Richard Petty, he was asked about it and he said he didn't need a big fancy shop to build winning race cars, seems Jack was falling into the same slump, glad to see he has the drive again.

I've always been a Hendrick/Chevy guy, but it's awesome to see Roush find success again. Brad really is a game changer and one could only wonder how this team would be if he had a higher stake in it. And Chris is doing an awesome job too. He, just like Bubba and Reddick, proved that he can win when given good cars!

Brad brought some Penske to Roush-Fenway …. 👍 Great job

I can add to Chris in what he was explaining about Roush. I was at the shop during them cleaning (auctioning) the shop out a few months back. I ended up buying a number of things from them to put in my shop that I needed. However, from my walk around while gathering my stuff, you could tell that there was sense of organizing and cleaning house going on. A reset of sorts that was needed for that race team. Brad is bringing a new mindset that was long overdue. Psychologically, it will lift the spirits up for the team. New paint, floors, cleaning out the back storage rooms while in the pursuit that details matter in order to win. The mindset will take the longest to change, but once it gets going you will see the team be more consistent in their performance. The place felt tired..not bad people, but you could tell from the parts, equipment, and etc that it needed new leadership to push the organization forward. The next gen is part of that process...but the mindset was in need of a new vision and process from a leader. I wish them well and believe you will see more "excellence" in their performance in the next few years.

The first half of 2022 might've been a struggle, but you can see with recent runs and results that 2023 has a good chance of being a huge year for RFK. I'm not saying a championship or anything, but a 3-4 win playoff season like RCR and Trackhouse is very possible

If you keep doing what you've been doing....you're going to keep getting what you've been getting.

The bromance between these two are hilarious 👍

Shop moral means everything.

I use to watch Dale race every weekend with my dad

We saw what Penske did when he bought into Dick Johnson Racing in Supercars. There is a Penske way, and Brad spent a lot of years working that principle. It seems only natural that he would see the way to changing this team up to becoming even more professional than it already is.

Oversight in the title, he goes by Christopher Buescher now

It's funny Chris said it's 20 different things that add up. June bug said the same thing to Tony Glover that when his organization looks for a CC he and his team want them to do all the small things that add up to getting through Station A with Glove man's decklid.

Great conversation 👍

I would disagree...I believe that the new floor and the new cabinets, and the clean shop add a ton of value that ultimately makes cars go faster. Why? Cause going to work at a "nice" facility makes a person feel better and take more pride in his/her work. And that will make its way into the result of their work. And in this case, the result of these people's work is performance of their race cars. If you make sure to take care of the small things, the big things take care of themselves. Same concept as "if you watch the pennies, the dollars take care of themselves". To paint the floor, and to paint the cabinets, and to organize the shop, etc....these are the least expensive ways to make an impact, even if it's a small one.

On ironically a clean and organized shop even if it's just for a one bag garage in your hometown is going to be almost 100% more efficient just purely because you're never going to be looking for little bits and pieces wondering where the hell they are when everything's clean and organized and you keep it that way you never have those kind of issues and you don't waste time plus it also just kind of boosts employee morale which people do especially big corporations. They really underestimate how important having satisfied maybe not happy because not everyone's going to be happy coming into work and honestly asking people to be happy about going into work no matter what they do is unreasonable but just being satisfied is a huge bonus

Brad may be one of the most mechanically intelligent drivers out there. He would see what was different about the teams that had an edge and Penske would make the adjustments.

Very surprised. He is a very good interview.

Dirty mo. Please do a season 3 of lost speedways

Buescher Is Awesome

Hated to see brad leave JR yrs ago...easy to see he was talented...hard to corral reminds me as a fan thats all we really know is what we see on Sunday...love the show all the inside...interviews of the older guys appreciate it all

2023 will be good for RFK and for what brad and that organization is doing to come back to be on top like they should be , you can’t fault a guy for trying and never give up

"Kyle Bush is an ass" Greatest Intro EVER!!!

Go Busesher go 😊

I want to know where the podcast can be WATCHED in full, not just clips, if the clips can be uploaded the whole video has got to be somewhere

The Penske facility is very impressive, as are the other top teams. It’s not a coincidence that the facilities of winning teams look professional and incredibly organized. You can’t be a winning team without those traits. You might be able to win a singular race without them, but sustaining success requires is an entirely different mindset. However, even if you are professional and organized, then comes finding the right people that create the chemistry needed to put you over the top. That is a much more difficult task. Only time will tell if they can make that happen. I wish them luck.

I give Brad a lot of credit, I never thought anybody would be able to Jack what to do.

Would of been Cool to Talk about Roll Over at Charlotte

1:12 Not Enough Time 🤣

❤️❤️❤️❣️🥰

i believe if jack would've kept chris instead of ricky back years ago, he would've been in better shape.ricky destroyed ALOT of equipment needlessly.chris is more likely to finish a race than ricky's long list of dnf's.

Maybe if they hadnt changed the nose of the Ford.

In order to evolve...you got to change first.

Jack did not grow up in Michigan. Raised in Manchester Ohio, under grad degree from Berea College , masters degree from Eastern Mich Uni.

A good shop has rules**my # one rule was when you use a tool*put back where you got it from**THAT WAY YOU WILL NOT WASTE LOOKING FOR YOUR TOOLS. for the next job.* *DR KEL

I have a WICKED MODEL that would look FANTASTIC on the table .....!!!!

I thought that was Christopher Buscher...🤔

I thought roush fenway would come out of the gate screaming with Brad's addition. As a huge roush fan, this has been a disappointing season

Gee thanks Mike. You realize I'm not one of the long time retired guys that usually visit. Thanks for putting me in a bad spot

Ford

I find that rfk is not gonna like the interview and this will bring back things to Chris

I really like Chris ..but he answered every question as if this were a post race interview... very bland and frankly boring..
