NOTE: This is a remastered version of a previously release, with better sound quality.
This week in the second installment of our interview with longtime … and outspoken … NASCAR crew chief Tim Brewer, Tim talks about his move to M.C. Anderson and why he considers that to be the biggest mistake of his career.
He also guides us through some tumultuous years financially with Blue Max Racing and Tim Richmond, during which it was left to HIM to cover checks to keep the team going.
Then it was back to Junior Johnson & Associates, to work with drivers Neil Bonnett, Terry Labonte and Geoff Bodine. And … yes … Tim talks about some of the … let’s just call ‘em rules interpretations he made over the years. That led to a couple of quotes that go STRAIGHT to the top of our favorites over the years on this show.

Another guy that needs to be in the Hall of Fame hopefully somebody will put him in the Hall of Fame before the man passes away it's not fair to the veterans of NASCAR not being able to get into Nascar Hall of Fame when you get all these new guys they put in because of popularity

I was at Clingman raceway in Rhonda n.c and Tim and his son or nephew I can't remember it's been so long came to race kart's at the track. They were pitted beside me and they were terrible. I said mr Brewer just looking at the kart I don't think you are even close . He said son I don't no shit bout no f..king kart.If you think you know then fix it. I said I don't think I know I know I know. They went out and came from the back to third I think. When he left he said you need to ride down to jr's and see me. I never did but if I had it to do over again I would have. Brewer may toot his own horn but he made that horn and I all way's respected him for that.

Any time you can get a real mechanical guy to open up about what he got away with and his not so questionable antics is always a great conversational bit for the ages before what we have today. There is no guidance for the teams to play in a box and see what they come up with.
