“ Wondering what The Beast has under its hood? Gas or diesel? ”

My guess is all three, gas, diesel, and electric.

How fast will they get that thing going? Hopefully something decent and not sedate.

I hope the Secret Service promises to get it over 100 mph! That would be epic.

A sitting duck for what? An RPG attack? From NASCAR fans?

Wouldn't it be cool if the Beast's lap were done like this:

Evasive Driving -- A lap with "The Beast" -- in REVERSE DRIFT

Enter Trump and the beast in a demolition derby. That would be fun to watch.

NASCAR IS a demolition derby.

Screw the limo. Put the prez in a special edition souped up Camaro. He’ll peg it at 160 around the track.

When a "Big 'Un" happens, you're not far from the truth.

I was planning on watching anyway, so this news just made it all the more special.

Full disclosure: the reverse drift video is recorded from a hyper-realistic computer game.

However, the guy who "drove" the limo in the game (Don Joewan Song) actually claims to be a Secret Service agent...

I find this hard to believe. How are you going to get that heavyweight Beast he rides in, from the flat area onto the track itself, with the the crazy amount of Banking on the track? When I see that, I’ll believe it.

Yeah I like road courses, open wheel and especially USAC.

(dirt is for racing...asphalt is for getting there)

I am certain the Secret Service will take the “BEAST” vehicle around the track lap below the yellow line at a nice controllable safe speed!!! This fantastic Daytona 500 POTUS lap will be one for the record books....with millions of Americans who will be watching on their TVs and feed lines, as well as the 120,000 NASCAR fans at the track proper!!!

I mean, I, as a NASCAR fan for just about my whole aged life cannot not ever picture Democrats, Sanders, Clinton, Biden, Buttigieg, Kolbuchar, Steyer commanding “Drivers, Start Your Engines”!!!

Ho, ho, ho,....Bloomberg & Clinton...the political joke of the year!!! If little Mike needs Hillary Clinton as his VP....he is in deep Trouble in more then one way...period!!! You folks out there in America land figure it out!!!

Don’t think #45 is in use today. A little history of the #45

Notable: LeeRoy Yarbrough is the only other driver to carry No. 45 to victory,
scoring the first two big-league wins of his career in the 1964 campaign. ...
Adam Petty, the fourth generation of the racing family, made just one Cup
Series start in the No. 45 on April 2, 2000, at Texas Motor Speedway. He
died nearly six weeks later in a crash at New Hampshire. His father, Kyle,
eventually took over the No. 45 car in tribute to his son, closing out
his driving career with the number in 2008.

He can’t and shouldn’t do it, but wouldn’t you laugh your ass off if he put one of those magnet signs on his doors, “Stay at a Trump hotel. You’ll love it!”

At least 30% of the democRat folks in Congress would have a coronary.

Yeah, I reckon.

Takes some of the fun out of it though.
