Booth notes to carry

These are live walkaround notes that should stay in the announcer brain without being sprayed all over random driver cards.

Ed Garrett has bought dusty Riggs 01 legend car, okay, but we need you to announce him as dusty, something different, just to kind of give a little tribute. Cool, yeah, oh yeah, I know, but anyway, if you don't mind, throw a couple in there.
