Kyle Petty is a lot of things to a lot of people, and in the first of our three-part interview, he's an exceptional interview as always. Petty talks about growing up in NASCAR, having never known a time when the sport wasn't a part of his life. Heir apparent to the sport's most famous family, it was his mother Lynda, not father Richard, who was the most competive. Finally, he discusses the expectations of being Richard Petty's son. In our segment, former Cale Yarborough Motorsports crew member joins host Rick Houston to remember the late John Andretti.
