This week on Bringing the Heat with Trey Lyle, Mini Tyrrell and Michael Massie reconnect – this time on the NASCAR scene. Tyrell gave his first impressions of being a NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series driver and how it differs from his time in the CARS Tour.
Driving the No. 14 RAM for Kaulig Racing, Tyrrell walks Massie through his opportunity to compete for the ride in the “Race for the Seat” show. Tyrrell adds how he’s developed some off-track, people-facing skills as well.
After the interview, Lyle and Caleb Barnes hit on this week’s hottest topics, beginning with Daniel Dye, who has been indefinitely suspended after making insensitive comments on a video. After multiple incidents, the road to reinstatement might not be as simple as it was for other drivers who have previously faced suspensions for sensitivity reasons.

Another week includes more Alex Bowman talk. Barnes and Lyle wish the Hendrick driver well while also wondering how long his absence will go, Bowman’s willingness to get back in the car and if he will return to the Cup Series in the future.
With Denny Hamlin’s triumph in Las Vegas, Barnes and Lyle debate whether or not Hamlin can catch Dale Earnhardt, Cale Yarborough, or Jimmie Johnson on the all-time wins list.
The soundbite of the week comes from Daniel Suarez, who was spotted in a heated moment with Ross Chastain on pit road. While Chastain declined to comment, Suarez hinted at a broken relationship, with fractures beginning back before Suarez left Trackhouse.
