I know us racers are supposed to be all GQ cool guys but Iβd be lying if I didnβt say I was absolutely geeked for the opportunity to drive this race car this year. Iβve spent the better part of the last 20 years dreaming of a chance like this. Thanks to everyone involved!

@felipesdad Paging @Sharp_Advantage. Pretty sure Dave says the inserts do become more brittle over time as the glue is continuously drying out. Not sure his exact time recommendation but I canβt remember him telling me they donβt last forever. 3-4 years possibly?

Non-Wing car has been sitting under the cover for almost a year. Broke it out last weekend at Red Hill and ran 4th. Then 5th tonight. Iβll take it. π€πΌ
.@InfernoArmorUSA Fire Move of the Night! π₯
In his first 59 career USAC @AMSOILINC National Sprint Car starts, @MarioClouser hadn't cracked the top-5.
Tonight at @TriCity11, he changed all that.
He scores a 5th tonight in what was his first USAC Sprint Car start of the year!
@maytag15 @KnoxvilleMoths Sedalia is a really cool joint. All the vibes. Iβve heard they wonβt take crown cars there because the want the same weekend as Springfield.
