The team owner’s recent appearance at the “Bubba the Love Sponge Show” shows a rather goofy yet practical side of him. ‘The Bubba Army’, while talking with him on a myriad of topics, grilled Tony Stewart on arguably one of the most controversial topics, marriage!

The host mentioned that earlier, when Tony wasn’t married, he could have competed with anyone with the competitive spirit that he carries. But now that he is married to Leah Pruett, who is also a drag racer, how will it work out for him if he ends up competing against her? 

The wise and witty man, Smoke, without wasting a moment, replied, “It’s a terrible idea!”

He mentioned that his wife, Leah, is as competitive as him. Listening to this, the host teased him with an announcement as if they were at the race start. The host even asked Stewart, “Do you redline on purpose, kid?” Knowing very well that redlining your engine is a bad idea, Smoke very seriously said, “if you want to sleep in your own bed you do.”
