:19:00
I want you to drive it slowly,
and I'm gonna sit there...
:19:03
Yeah, sure.
:19:04
He took the wheel before
Todd could cry for help.
:19:09
There's a very good reason the name
Andretti is synonymous with speed...
:19:14
Because it's synonymous with speed.
:19:18
Feeling the pre-run truck here,
:19:20
I could see how you could
all of a sudden find yourself in a ditch
:19:23
upside down really easy.
:19:26
All of a sudden he's
pushing the thing pretty hard,
:19:28
we're on the right-hand side,
stuff's going right by me.
:19:32
So I said, "Hey, Mario, you gotta slow down.
I think there's some horses coming up. "
:19:34
There weren't horses coming up,
but anything to get this thing slowed down.
:19:47
What did you think of that?
:19:49
What did you think of that?
I loved it.
:19:51
Todd's hyperventilating had stopped.
:19:54
Unfortunately. So did his truck.
20 miles from civilization.
:20:00
It's died.
We've got no battery.
:20:03
Didn't go fast enough.
:20:06
You didn't go fast enough
to charge the battery.
:20:10
Eventually a ride pulled up.
:20:13
The lady in the truck
obviously didn't follow racing.
:20:15
But she knew a good head
for hats when she saw one.
:20:20
I'm sorry to do this to you, but...
:20:23
The husband. On the other hand.
Knew instantly
:20:26
that the man carrying his
dirty laundry was a living legend.
:20:29
- Chris and Sam, you're my saviors.
- Mario Andretti, it's a pleasure to meet you.
:20:32
I've heard of you
for years and years.
:20:35
The couple happily drove
20 miles out of their way.
:20:38
Compensated with a mere autograph.
:20:40
Pure Baja magic.
:20:42
Everything goes wrong
and then works out perfectly.
:20:45
See, you turned out to be
the highlight of our day.
:20:47
Well, you're the highlight of ours, too.
:20:49
Mario couldn't get over the potential
in off-road racing.
:20:54
It's incredible, you know,
what has been developed.
:20:58
But I keep saying, I mean,
the imagination is the only limit.
