[/media-credit]In my next interview I had the chance to speak with Nationwide Series driver Brian Scott. He currently drives the No. 11 Dollar General Toyota for Joe Gibbs Racing. Here is my interview with Brian Scott.
Q: Imagine yourself not as a driver but as a race fan. If you were to do a ride along with any driver other than yourself, who would you chose, which track and why?
Brian Scott: If I wasn’t a race car driver I think the most exhilarating ride along would be with Jimmie Johnson at Dover. Dover is such an incredible place with the most sensation of speed anywhere we go, and Jimmie because he is amazing at the track.
Q: If you could have a track named after you, what kind of track would it be and where would it be located?
Brian Scott: I think to have a track named after me in my home state of Idaho or just even in the Northwest would be neat. It would be a track that was a fast short track. Something like if you merged Bristol and Phoenix together.
Q: What is your most memorable race?
Brian Scott: My most memorable race was the 2009 Camping World Truck Series race at Dover. I won the race, my first win in NASCAR, and it will always be a memory I cherish.
Q: Who would you consider NASCAR’s bad boy? Golden boy?
Brian Scott: NASCAR’s bad boy in my eyes is my teammate Kyle Busch. And the golden boy is Carl Edwards.
Q: What advice would you give someone who wanted to be a race car driver?
Brian Scott: I would tell anyone with aspirations of being a race car driver to work hard, be humbled, and never give up. Its a long, hard road to make it and when it all comes down to it you have to be lucky, talented and smart.
