    The Great American Race is one of those classically "American" things. Hats off to Trump for participating. I appreciate having a president who participates in great American traditions, rather than pissing on them. MAGA!

    There's also a Trump 2020 car which will be racing tomorrow in the Xfinity Series

    They're about to take away Biden's driver's license.

    It's not safe. I saw an old lady crash into some parked cars because she mistook the gas for the brakes. To old to drive, to old to be president. Imagine pulling over Bernie Sanders...

    Why not?

    The NASCAR Crowd is his wheelhouse.

    So, good for him.

    Weird.

    You'd think Lyndon Johnson, Jimmah Carter or Slick Willy Clinton would have been the first.

    I take the family to ride off road. RVs, 4X4s, etc. I see a lot of American flags, Trump 2020 flags, etc. There is something about motorsports that appeals to the right.

    I have noticed the same thing. Not only off-roading, but also motorcyclists and boaters seem to have a higher-than-average proportion of patriots and Trump supporters.

    Watkins Glen. They have a NASCAR road race there and have for many years now(since 1986).

    Considering how it got it’s start, I’m not too surprised. Though it is a bit strange Jimmy hasn’t, but he just may not be interested in NASCAR at all.

    Remember me saying he'll never be the nominee, but I hope he will be?

    Remember all the Biden praises?

    I want a die cast of this. It would have been nice if they could change the number of the car to 45 for the weekend but that's a hassle.

    Good point.

    Incidentally, I forgot to include Dubyah on my list. NASCAR peaked in the mid-2000s, so I'm a little surprised he wasn't the first Grand Marshal at Daytona.
