Frontstretch Line of the Week
"I felt that way a couple of days previous of making the podcast of, ‘Man, I don’t want to have
to keep going through the stress of worrying about providing for my family at this job and is it gonna work out?’ In that moment it was hard, and that continued. It was really a tough time. You want to race and you want to be a part of a team again, but also the pain of continuing to hear ‘nos’ and situations not working out." - Ty Dillon, on why he put
out an episode of his podcast In The Moment with Ty Dillon, entitled "I Quit Today" in March.
