The races before the Cup race showing how easy it is to go from boredom to terror with this track. High speed into the turns, and if you screw up or get a flat, you go into the inside wall.

The entry with Martin Truex is the official one.
The other one with Kyle B was posted by superbox but also deleted by superbox as well.
Sounds like NASCAR is telling drivers to go to their cars. Showers seem possible
By the way, if there are two submissions, the latest before Green Flag is the one that counts, unless it gets deleted.
