![]() ![]() Normally when service is over I just go get in my car cause I really don't want to hear what he has to say about my last set of jokes. And then when me and my wife go to church, I don't have to hide from the Minister. ![]() I been on HBO a lot and I said a lot of crazy stuff with a microphone but being a father of five kids, it is important that I do something before I get too old that I can be proud of and my kids can be proud of and watch. "You know, like Jeff said, this is the fist film I ever have done for kids. Being a celebrity with a big ego you know you want your face out there and when they said I was going to be a horsefly in the movie, I thought what would I do that for? Then after watching you all laughing at the clip, I am the horsefly with the Blue Eyes. When I first got the call to do the movie, I was ashamed you know. Never wanted a t-shirt badder in my entire life than I do today. They said we were coming to a promotion for the movie, nobody said we were going to come to a real racetrack and be out here with Jeff so me and my entire crew are dressed like pimps. ![]() You can tell by my attire that I don't belong here at all. STEVE HARVEY: "It is hard to come to a race track and follow Jeff Gordon. Well, as you can see, now you see what the tie is with the movie and what we do here out here on the weekends and why we are a part of it." We have a clip we are going to watch here to give you an idea of what the movie is about. I want to thank everyone for coming out here today. "We are going to unveil the car in a few moments. I know there are a lot of great moments in the movie that people are going to enjoy but these guys just capped it off. These guys are so great and they are so much fun. He plays Buzz and his buddy Scuzz will absolutely keep you in stitches. "It is something that I encourage everyone to go out and see and have fun with Steve Harvey being here. More importantly we are excited to be associated with Racing Stripes, the movie we are talking about here today. Victory Junction Gang Camp has certainly been doing that in many ways and we are proud to be associated with them through our Foundation. We have worked to increase awareness out there so that little boys and girls like this pursue their dreams and to be able to have healthy lives and to be able to go out there and put smiles on their faces. Victory Junction Gang Camp is going to benefit through the Jeff Gordon Foundation with what we have been doing over the last several years since I formed the Jeff Gordon Foundation. It is awesome to have them here at Atlanta Motor Speedway to have them focused on Speedway Children's Charities. "The most important part of why I wanted to be a part of it is because they are focused on many children's charities. I don't want to give too much away about the movie but it is a great message, a great inspiration and certainly plays a great role in what we do out there on the racetrack. "I got a chance to hear about the movie, the message which is to really get out there and overcome adversity that with enough desire you can live out your dreams. I think adults are going to enjoy taking their kids to the movie and be a part of it. ![]() I certainly know the kids are going to love it but I think everyone of any age will really enjoy it as well. I would love to do anything to get out there and confuse my competition. One is I actually did want the stripes on the race car I was racing this weekend because I guess the stripes are meant to confuse the predators that are after you. JEFF GORDON: "There are several reasons that I got to be a part of this movie and this promotion. It has been one of the pleasures about making the film." They just get in a room together and just sort of play off one another. It has taken us about two years to complete this film. These guys have been great and done everything we have ask them to do. When we decided to make the film and the first two people we thought of when we were getting ready to cast Buzz and Scuzz, the two horseflys that have been hanging around the track living off of track food which has kept them alive all this time was David (Spade) and Steve (Harvey). We think this movie will be fun and appeal to a broad audience as well. That portrayed some of the values we like to see. We are happy to be affiliated with all you guys. "I just wanted to say how pleased we are to be associated with Jeff Gordon and NASCAR as well as the family values the film portrays as well as the organizations you represent.
