After viewing the scene about Tim's meeting with NASCAR (11:10), Bob Varsha and Godwin Kelly gave the inside story on twitter:

Godwin Kelly: "I drove him to airport... I took him to airport and he had a steamer trunk and gave the curbside baggage handler a $50 tip. He was very confident of his standing with @NASCAR after that meeting."

Bob Varsha: "Found him at a phone booth (remember those?) at the airport after a company PR rep (now incarcerated) tried to keep me occupied with small talk while TR had his meeting with management and left town. Good times!"
