cials decide that you have been a little too aggressive?) Too close: they'll set you back and set you down. Like if I won the race, and I interfered with somebody. And they feel that I interfered with him. They'll set me back behind that horse. (What does "setting you down" mean?) Well, it just depends on what infraction you caused. You can get set down for (so many) days. So then I won't be able to drive for (so many) days that they're racing. That's set down. That's your punishment. Or they might fine you. (Do people ever lose their license?) Oh yeah. (Did you ever lose yours?) Well, I was fighting for them for awhile. I didn't lose them, but--well, just got set down, but I didn't lose them--but it was just nip and tuck to it. They were thinking that strongly of taking them. (Did that make you drive differently for awhile?) Well, you've got to be really ex? tra careful, you know. You've got to be ex? tra careful. But a lot of times there were things hap? pen that you can't do anything about.
