Gloves? Montoya don't need no stinking gloves

Juan Montoya, driver of the No. 42 Earnhardt Ganassi Racing Chevrolet, answers this week's pop culture questions.

1. We know you've seen them all, so who is your favorite Shrek character and why?

Montoya: Oh, Donkey. He's funny. He's just a cool guy.

Mark Martin may be in shape, but Juan Montoya will keep his McDonald's, thank you very much.

2. Another child star, Gary Coleman, has passed. Who was your favorite child star growing up?

Montoya: I don't know, I have to think. I did used to watch a lot of Tintin [The Adventures of Tintin] the cartoon character.

3. Boxing has returned to Yankee Stadium, any interest there?

Montoya: No, I like more UFC. If you're going to punch somebody, why put something soft in your hand to avoid it, no?

4. Name one lavish accommodation you have in your motor home.

Montoya: I have a home theater where the screen comes down, high definition, surround sound and everything.

5. In today's health conscience society, what is the one fast food drive-thru you're embarrassed to frequent but do anyway?

Montoya: I'm not embarrassed; I go to McDonald's all the time. I like it! You know what amazes me about eating healthy? You know Mark Martin eats only 30 grams of fat a day? I said, 'Are you serious? Good but I love going to McDonald's.' I get a Double Quarter Pounder with cheese, no pickles, no onions.

6. Name something nice you've done for a stranger recently.

Montoya: I open a lot of doors, but four months ago I was with the wife at the Fresh Market and I moved my car for someone that was going through [to park] and they said, 'Oh my God, there's only three people like that on Earth.'
