As recorded by Katelyn Larson on Saturday morning, Chase Elliott hitched a ride to the Naval Air Station North Island on a motorized scooter with old friend and fellow Cup Series contender Ryan Blaney.<\/p>\n

\u201cKaitlyn did us dirty on that one,\u201d Blaney said with a laugh when asked about it on Saturday afternoon in San Diego. \u201cBut we’re sitting at the same hotel and I was like, \u2018Hey, I got a scooter if you want a ride, instead of walking two miles\u2019 and he was like, \u2018yeah.\u2019<\/p>\n
Blaney called themselves \u2018Harry and Lloyd\u2019 in reference to the scene from \u2018Dumb and Dumber.\u2019<\/p>\n
\u201cSo yeah, I appreciate her for filming.\u201d \u00a0<\/p>\n
The extra passenger also killed his battery.<\/p>\n
\u201cMy scooter only has seven miles of battery charge to it and it’s two miles here,\u201d Blaney said. \u201cThen it had to go 3.5 miles on the racetrack and the thing’s only supposed to hold a max weight of like 220 pounds and Chase and I exceed that. I think we overheated it a little bit.\u201d<\/p>\n
Elliott had a laugh over it too.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhen I left the house this week, I don’t think I had me on the back of another man’s scooter on my bingo card, but here we are,\u201d Elliott said. \u201cAnd you know what? I was going to walk and my man offered me a ride and off we went.<\/p>\n
\u201cSo fortunately he had a secondary scooter here and he was kind enough to let me have that one on the way back tonight so we don’t have to do that again, which is alright with me.\u201d<\/p>\n
We want your opinion!<\/p>\n
