Prelude to the Dream drivers have made their mark in auto racing. Sometimes, fans ask drivers to do the same to them. Prelude drivers describe the most unusual items they've been asked to autograph:
Extras
"Ladies' (breasts), underwear, cars. I always ask (my wife), and she says go ahead. Some of our favorite memories are some drunk lady in Darlington, S.C., rips her underwear up the back of her pants and says, 'Will you come sign my thong?' You almost want to say, 'No, I don't do that,' but they're so excited to see you." — Kenny Wallace
"A tennis shoe. Somebody came up and didn't have anything for me to sign so they took off their shoe." — Aric Almirola
"I don't know. What's unusual to me might not be unusual to you. I don't know, a hockey puck or something. " — Dave Blaney
"An arm so they could go to the tattoo parlor and get it tattooed." — Clint Bowyer
"Baby diaper, a clean one by the way. They pulled it out of their bag." — Kyle Busch
"Do body parts count as unusual?" — Ron Capps
"A birth certificate of someone with my name." — Kevin Harvick
"I get asked to sign some interesting body parts — some I've had to say 'no' to." — Jimmie Johnson
"Diaper. It was off the baby." — Kasey Kahne
"A guy was in an autograph line and he pulled his girlfriend's underwear out of his front pocket. It's like, what is that guy thinking? Are they clean?" — Matt Kenseth
"I can't talk about that." — Ryan Newman
"An artificial leg. They took it off. I didn't know that was coming." — Ken Schrader
