BUT WAIT, THERE’S MORE
RACING SERIES
WE HOPE TO SEE
IN 2018 & BEYOND
NASCAR
CROSSOVERS
Since old, chubby
Americans have forsaken
sedans for upright crossovers,
it only makes sense
that people would demand
to see a tube-frame Chevy
Trax duking it out with
Ford Escapes at Daytona.
Call it NASCrossovers!
“Win on Sunday, sell
on Monday!”
TINY HOUSE
RACING
You’ve probably seen one
of these tiny homes on the
bed of a single-axle trailer
on the highway. Now,
imagine a field of 30
full-size pickups zipping
around Laguna Seca!
One driver in the truck
and one in the house preparing
a race-sanctioned
food item! IMAGINE IT!
PRESS RELEASE WE WISH
WE’D OPENED IN 2016

MOVING MISCUE:
OUR CHAMPIONSHIP 4
NASCAR has its Chase for the
Championship, in which a series of playoff
races leads to one last event with four finalists,
aka its Championship 4, dueling for the
Cup title at Homestead-Miami Speedway.
Now, we didn’t have any Moving Miscue
brackets, but we did pick four pictures of
cars with items improperly loaded on them
for you. Which is your ultimate champion?
JOHN BOWER GENE BOSS
“Grammy Award-winning artist Sting
will perform at the NASCAR Sprint Cup
Series Awards on Friday, Dec. 2, at the
Wynn Las Vegas. The finale of NASCAR
Champion’s Week festivities …”
Damn it. We missed it. We missed Sting.
Tell us he didn’t play “Roxanne.” That’s
our favorite.
