GS:Well, my interest is piqued.

TM:He’s been banned from at least two bars for excessive use of jazz hands.

GS: Lorhaven, the bad boy of the NRR, uses jazz hands?

TM:I saw his journal once. He says he isn’t a bad boy but a misunderstood villain.

GS:His diary…

DM:Stop causing trouble, frat boy. Thanksgiving is going to be a shit show.

GS:You spend Thanksgiving with Lorhaven?

DM:He’s family.

GS to TM:You still don’t like talking about his accident, do you?

TM:Obviously.

GS:Even after all this time?

TM:Always.

GS:My question isn’t really about the accident, more about what came after.

GS:How hard was it getting back to normal after the accident?

DM:We didn’t go back to normal because our normal changed.

TM: It got better.

GS:Because you became parents?

DM:Because we were still together. Because the accident was terrible, but it gave us the courage to live full throttle. I don’t think I really realized how much I held back until I almost died.

GS:I never thought of you as a man who holds back.

DM:On the track, definitely not. But in other aspects of life, in relationships, it was harder to come out of my shell.

GS:What does coming out of your shell mean exactly?

DM:Being vulnerable.

GS:But now you are?

DM:Yeah.

GS:How hard was it getting back on the track and behind the wheel?

DM:It was hard. The hardest thing I’ve ever done in my career.

GS:What was that first time behind the wheel of your race car like?
