NASCAR’s Post

Bucket list: 1. Ride along Route 66 starting from Chicago. ✅ Now back to work which is being very rewarding. Thank you to all old, new clients, friends for all your support on this new beginning. Almost forgot this: 2. Watch Indy 500 live and in person. ✅ The idea of speed takes a completely different perspective when you are sitting right behind the pit lane and 30ft from the cars going 370km/h along the main straight. #bucketlist #route66 #newbeginning #challenges #livelife #lovelife #indy500

Brenden “Butterbean” Queen earned an impressive fourth-place finish at North Wilkesboro Speedway on Sunday in his NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series debut. “Man, this is what I worked for my whole life and never knew if I’d get this opportunity,” Queen said.

If you have time, take a look at this interesting article featuring my older sister. This is definitely worth reading!

Txt LDS to 21002 C6 Chevy Corvette 'Trail Boss' continues tradition of dirt-loving Vettes: View the 13 images of this gallery on the original article The Chevrolet Corvette is a surprisingly popular candidate for conversion to off-road use. Last month, a Corvette development driver told Road & Track that creating an off-road Corvette "[Comes] up from time to time. ... There’s one guy on the team who’s always pitching it. Obviously we’ve looked at what Porsche and others are doing." By "others" he might have meant this C3 used for autocrosses and rooster-tailing in Iowa rallies. Or the C3 "Snowvette" lives up to its name. Or a C4 Safari that's one of the nicest looking conversions to ever grace Facebook Marketplace. Or this C5 with "Z71 Off Road" stickers and 33-inch Nitto Grapplers that needs a James Bond-like compartment for releasing bald eagles instead of smoke and oil. Or this stripped-down C5 sand rail that needs a cameo in Grand Theft Auto.  If it's a C6 'Vette off-roader you're waiting for before pulling the trigger, here you go. GM Authority ran an April Fools joke two years ago purporting to show spy shots of a C8 Corvette Trail Boss. This Facebook Marketplace user built a Vette with the same name but on a chassis from 2013. The listing's got more photos than information; it looks like the engine's been untouched save for a cold-air intake, and the odo shows under 50,000 miles. Stock output of 430 horsepower and 424 pound-feet of torque runs through a six-speed manual to the rear wheels. The builder installed Fox shocks with remote reservoirs, the better to play with the 33-inch Toyo Open Country A/T tires wrapping Fuel off-road wheels. And if the "Trail Boss" stickers weren't enough to seal the deal, check out that trailer hitch.  Turns out the coincidence of a C5 Z71 and a C6 Trail Boss is no coincidence — an Indiana man named Caleb Hodlin built both. The sole video on his YouTube channel says his mission is "to build the most insane off-road streetcars you will ever see," so we're looking forward to what's next. In the meantime, this C6 is up for sale on Facebook Marketplace for $23,000. It's had a bit of buy-sell-buy-sell history in the recent past, but the video shows what it can do in the right hands. Whoever takes it home will want to keep a recovery strap in the cargo area — RWD with no lockers is a good way to spin wheels. Or perhaps have Caleb weld up a winch mount, something every real boss of the trail should have anyway.  http://dlvr.it/TDV9Yl www.CarsBuyText.com #cartalk #Cars #carsofinstagram

✍🏼#AdrianNewey, 65 years old, is one of those designers most loved and desired by everyone. Anyone would want him on the team. He’s a winning mind, and it is easy to see that with what he has done at Red Bull. He has created winning cars for #MaxVerstappen and #SebastianVettel. Not only that, he also worked for other teams in the past, such as #McLaren and #Williams. Here is my new article for LastWordOnSports.com, where i talk about his successes in the world of #FormulaOne 🏁 #FIA #RedBull #article #collaboration https://lnkd.in/dyQGG6dt

NASCAR Chicago 2024: Excitement vs. Commute Challenges The excitement for NASCAR Chicago 2024 is already palpable, but it's not without its challenges. Road closures and increasing traffic are making commutes tougher, and parking restrictions in the city are adding to the inconvenience. Despite these hurdles, the anticipation and energy surrounding the event make it all worthwhile. #NASCARChicago2024 #RaceInTheCity #NASCARExcitement

Track walk! The track walk is one of the most important pre-session events for both the driver and race engineer. This is the time we study the track in person, look at kerb heights, corner apex's and any bumps or odd track surfaces. If you have any questions about what I get up to on a race weekend, ask away! #raceengineering #motorsport #SpanishF4

As we say at Ford, be curious! The hottest ticket in the country. The 2024 NFL draft is being held here in Detroit this week. The Lions (owned by the Ford Family), not to be outdone, showcased their new uniforms to a packed house of season ticket holders at Ford Field in downtown Detroit. Go Lions!

I love how this article that our DCI team placed ties in a well-known sports entity and how its investment in a city can impact an entire economy by attracting complementary industries, residents and visitors. A tri-fecta of place marketing success. We know that sports tourism is one of the fastest growing sectors in attracting leisure visitors, and we also know through Development Counsellors International's proprietary research that a potential workforce likes to visit a place first before relocation. So here's a quick tip when it comes to #talentattraction marketing: If you want to elevate your region as a great place to live and do business, don't be afraid to leverage the brand reputation of your sports teams and the development they bring to your economy. It's a winning combination. (Also...if I was more sports inclined I'd probably have a better pun... please don't tell my husband, who played college baseball, how woefully ignorant I am with these types of analogies:) #econdev #economicdevelopment
