Today, I have with me up-and-coming NASCAR superstar Brooke
Bradley who it has been said, races like a jackrabbit on Ritalin. She also
happens to be my girlfriend. Brooke, how are you today?
I’m excellent, Jesse.
How are you?
Spectacular. Now, every since you hit the NASCAR circuit six
weeks ago, you’ve been spinning heads and breaking hearts. I’d like to give the
fans what they want, which is to know a little bit more about you. You ready?
I was born ready.
All right then, let’s start with the hard-hitting stuff.
What’s your favorite food?
Hmmm… there’s so many
to choose from, but I’d have to say tacos.
Favorite ice cream?
You know that one
already.
Spumoni?
[Laughing] No,
strawberry.
Indy 500 or Daytona 500?
Daytona, of course.
Hometown represent!
Ford or Chevy?
Chevy. No question.
Chevy. No question.
If you could go any place in the world, where would you go?
New Zealand.
New Zealand?
Yeah, it looks
gorgeous.
What’s your favorite thing to do in the summertime, besides
racing cars?
Surfing.
What’s one thing not many people know about you?
I’m dyslexic.
Who’s your hero?
Danica Patrick. And my dad. Now it’s your turn, Jesse Copeland. What do you do when you’re not racing cars?
Danica Patrick. And my dad. Now it’s your turn, Jesse Copeland. What do you do when you’re not racing cars?
Hang out by the beach with my hot girlfriend.
Who’s your hero?
My father, #67, the late, great Phillip Copeland.
Long live the
Conqueror. If you could be any superhero, who would it be?
Hmmm…I’d have to say Batman because of his sweet ride.
And if you could have
one wish, what would it be? And don’t say wish for more wishes.
I’d wish for you and me to be together forever.
[kissing sounds]
One more question:
what are you going to do after this interview?
I’m going to take my baby to get Mexican, order salsa that’s
way too hot for me and pretend I can handle it.
[laughing] Sounds like
a plan.

Eighteen-year-old
Jesse Copeland learns of a local car race sponsored by his father's nemesis,
