Richard Petty presents Jeff Gordon with special gifts: #24-Jeff Gordon still has the special memento from his first race in what is now NASCAR's Sprint Cup Series. Gordon's debut in that 1992 race at Atlanta Motor Speedway also happened to be the final race for NASCAR's winningest driver, Richard Petty. To mark the occasion, during the drivers' meeting that day the King gave each of his fellow competitors a money clip inscribed with their name and starting position. With Gordon preparing for his final race in pursuit of his fifth season championship, he received a visit Saturday at Homestead-Miami Speedway from the seven-time champ bearing two gifts. To thank Gordon for his contributions to the sport, Petty presented one of his trademark cowboy hats with his signature on the brim. He also gave Gordon 93 dollar bills for the money clip, one for each of his career victories. The encounter took place in private, away from view of crowds and media gathered for Gordon's farewell race on Sunday. Richard Petty Motorsports tweeted photos of the exchange of gifts. Petty's son, Kyle, told the tale during the NBC broadcast, and added a final detail. Richard Petty has one more dollar that he hopes to present on Sunday. Gordon must earn that one, just as he did the other 93.(South Florida Sun Sentinel)(11-22-2015)

The trucks were all Fords so maybe it is the new Ford GT race car. The air intakes at the rear wheel flairs looked like a GT. It is the successor to the GT-40.

I found the photo of the new GT race car, pretty sure this was it::

Here is the photo of the GT-40's taking 1, 2 and 3 at the 24 Hours of Le Mans in the 1960's. It was Fords payback to Enzo Ferrari for the Ferrari refusal of the Ford buyout offer.

Our Durango has been leaking oil from the rear differential for close to year. Just keep topping it up until inspection in February, LOL!
