Daytona 500 this afternoon. 2:30 on Fox, pre-race is earlier. Word is that Trump may do a lap in the Presidential limo. The Fords did well in qualifying.

I can't believe any secret service officer worth his salt thinking that this is a good idea.

All those drunken rednecks. One slow moving Target.

Bad idea.

 

[Grumpaw]

If he does he'll be in a GM/Cadillac, so it's very possible he'll crash and burn.
But, hopefully it's not true...they don't serve Quarter Pounders with Cheese at the track...nothing for him to show up for.
Also, he doesn't know the words to the National Anthem so he can't sing along.

Not at all. The drunken rednecks are on his side (and I don't mean that in a bad way). Liberals wouldn't be caught dead at a NASCAR race.

I bet they turn left.

If they race in Australia, do they turn right?

If they race in Australia, do they turn right?

Yes. Most races in Australia are road races where you mostly turn right.

 

[Dirtman]

If they race in Australia, do they turn right?

Yes but they also drive upside down so to us they would still be turning left...

 

[Uncle Gump]

I just turned the race on... Trump is taking his lap around the track.

 

[Dirtman]

Is he in a lincoln convertible?

How did they keep "the beast" on that grade?

 

[JohnnyO]

Friggin' rain delay......

 

[Grumpaw]

How did they keep "the beast" on that grade?

Limo probably had a few hundred lbs of of Quarter Pounders and Big Macs in a warmer box on the floor. That would lower the vehicle's center of gravity, "planting" it on the grade.

They ran on the apron. 11 tons of fun.
