LOL
the drivers are definitely sniffin’ that 200 grand
I see allot of bump drifting and jockeying for 500!
Hi, and me too!
Like I said I don’t think they need to make contact to lift
the rear end. Something is screwed up with the air flow in
the rear. It seems that when the rear car approaches the lead car at about 4’to 3’ back the rear of
the lead car seems to lift a little then settles down as they both accelerate.
Here we go lady and germs!
Truex gets the moola!
Truex wins 200 grand
Hurry Norm, HURRY!!! LMAO
Cool then.....Go Truex.... the driver I like is OUT 24.
Uhhh,, 200K for a 500th Post? that’s a good one. lol
