    The white Mustang with the decals, fins, scoops and wing is what’s referred to as all hat, no cattle. LMFAO

    When I was stock car racing it was common for the spectator race to be held in clockwise direction but the promoter would change the direction right up to the start of the feature, minimized people setting cars up just for counter clockwise.

    • @FloridaManRacingChannel
      @FloridaManRacingChannel  ปีที่แล้ว

      I've seen that done at other tracks but I don't think they can do it at New Smyrna because of the opening in the wall in turn 4 . I like the idea though. Appreciate ya Peter
