## Transcript

### Pre-race

Gossip Boy: We welcome you back to ISCRS on MSN for the first race of the third round of the Chase, the South Point 400 at Las Vegas, Nevada! My name is Gossip Boy, their names are Min and Tee Zeng, or as I would call her, Kung Fu Girl!! (Min: Hi again! Kung Fu Girl/Tee Zeng: Hello!)

Min: Last week we saw Lore Ida, a non Chaser, win the Bank of America 400. This had a major impact heading to the next round of today's race.

Kung Fu Girl: The unlucky drivers that are out of this round are Albon Santiago, Y. K. Wing, Vince Camacho and Linda Pronsteck.

Gossip Boy: With that, there are 8 drivers left in this Chase. Only four can advance, and only one of them would be a champion.

### Start

Kung Fu Girl: We are green here in Las Vegas!

Gossip Boy: A. J. Chuanli and Brian Carter lead us out!

Min: Brian Carter gets the lead off of turn 2!

Gossip Boy: Cool, since Carter is one of my fans.

### Green Flag Pit Stop Cycle

Kung Fu Girl: Thirty one laps into this event, and now Dex Lewis is starting the first round of green flag pit stops. Scott Dengoa!

(From the pit lane)

Scott: Tee Zeng, Dex Lewis has stated that his car was extremely tight coming off the corners of Turn 2 one lap ago. It's going to be just a two tire, and gas and go for this #3 Cherrios car......and he's away! Min.

(Back in the booth)

Min: That's a 18.321 second pit stop, and now Lewis' leaves his pit box.

(One lap later)

Gossip Boy: Well, this is what we expected a lap earlier. Brian Carter is bringing the field into pit road. We now go back down to the pits with Hailey Banks! Hailey?

(From the pit lane)

Hailey: Just gas and go for the #5 of Brian Carter, meanwhile, his teammate Zayn Fuelzano, is opting for a four tire change only. Carter's out of his pit box, and same goes for Fuelzano. (8.321 seconds and 10.301 seconds for both of them, Tully!

Tulip: Last weeks winner Lore Ida is only having two tires changed on his car, so it wouldn't be any matter. Only fuel. He's out of his pit box now! Tee?

(In the booth)

Kung Fu Girl: 8.321 seconds? Wow.

Min: Only for a gas n' go, Tee. Please no puns.
