President Trump hypes up the massive, high-speed racing event set to take over the nation's capital on August 22nd and 23rd, promising a historic spectacle down Pennsylvania Avenue to celebrate America's 250th anniversary.
The event will feature cars reaching speeds of over 190 mph racing around the National Mall.
"It's going to be a sight for the ages. It really will be something special. And they're going to go all around the National Mall at speeds that are not quite- if we did that during the regular day, I think people would be put in jail, perhaps for the rest of their lives."

FIRST ON FOX: Apple and Google are facing new accusations of burying a major political story.
A new Media Research Center study obtained by Fox News Digital claims Apple News and Google News promoted zero stories for months about the controversies surrounding then-Maine Democratic Senate candidate Graham Platner, including reports about his Nazi tattoo and resurfaced offensive Reddit posts.
The study says that changed only after The New York Times reported on Platner's sexting controversy, bringing the story into the national spotlight.
Google is firmly pushing back against the study, saying "these claims are totally false and based on a completely flawed methodology."
Apple has not yet responded to Fox News Digital's request for comment.
