10. (Upon the removal of Tony's shirt): "Gasp! Oh my gawd! We're definitely gonna need more wax!" - All in attendance

9. "More wax? Hell, we're gonna need more wax and TWO shows to do all that!" - Producer of Tony's radio show

8. " ! ! ! , ." - Darrell Waltrip, suffering from laryngitis, frantically gesturing that it was his turn to "rip off some hair."

Tony Stewart may not be walking so tall after Operation Wax Smoke commenced on Monday.

7. "Good news, Tony! I talked with the pool guy at the camp and he said that once this is done, you won't have to pay us for extra filters next time you come up and go swimming!" - Kyle Petty

6. "Ewwwwww! You're lucky your back don't look like that, or you'd be one lonely race car driver!" - DeLana Harvick, whispering in Kevin's ear

5. "Hey, I got an idea! Let's just wax a big number 20 on his back!" - Advertising executive from Home Depot

4. (After one particularly successful RRRIIIIPPPPP! And a muffled scream): "Wow, Tony! Ya know, if our Goodyears were as sticky as this wax, I might not have slid up into you last Sunday!" - Kevin Harvick

3. "Looks like we're getting low on wax. I'll run down to the pitbox and get some of our ‘200 mph tape' that we use on the racecar." - Greg Zipadelli

2. "Hey, you guys! Is it normal for someone to be bleeding like that?" - Concerned studio guy from the sound booth

1. "Awwwwwwwwww! Oh gawd! Please stop! Owwwwwwwch! Oh please, oh please! AAAuuuugggghhhhhh! Momma, momma! AAAAIIIIIEEEEE! Son of a ……did that leave a mark? Holy S……!" - Tony Stewart

Oh my gawd! If you can’t get a visual…think about the movie “the 40 year old virgin”. I feel your pain, Tony! What you won’t do for Victory Junction ..you are a true hero!
