Hugh Laurie Interview

Source: www.crash.net

Is this your first NASCAR race?

Hugh Laurie: Yes, I’m a NASCAR virgin, but I’m very excited.

As an elite athlete yourself, would you ever consider driving a stock car?

Hugh Laurie: I would love to do that, but I don’t imagine I would have a hundredth of the talent necessary to do it – but I would love to try.

What’s the fastest you’ve ever driven in a street car?

Hugh Laurie: Well, I’ve been driven around a track in a McLaren F1 car at about 170 (mph), and that was an interesting experience. Myself, the fastest I’ve been has actually been on a motorcycle. That was on a Yamaha FZR 1000. I was getting close to 160. It was a one-off. I just wanted to see what it could do. It was the scariest piece of equipment I’ve ever had anything to do with.

Given Fox’s penchant for cross-promotion, do you think you might see a NASCAR driver on your operating table?

Hugh Laurie: I suppose it’s possible. We actually had a drag racer who came in, who got sick in a quarter-mile. So, yeah, I think it’s easily possible.

Ryan Newman is a big fan of House. Did you get a chance to visit with him?

Hugh Laurie: Yes, I’ve been just amazed by the drivers’ response to the show. It’s been an absolutely terrific thing. And it’s wonderful, on the day of the Oscars, to be in a place – suddenly to be out of that city (Los Angeles) – and be with a group of people who have absolutely no interest in entertainment. It’s such a relief.
