I admit to being a NASCAR junkie, and you must be too , to even know about this. (???) Ok, maybe ESPN ran the story. :grin:

Tony is a professional driver that had a GREAT driving car (thus his victory at the Brickyard Sunday).

So if he wants to drive hands free while way out in front on his way to VICTORY LANE on a straightaway with an awesome car, WOO HOO! Go TONY!!! He was ******* awesome!!!

Harvick faded too fast at the end, but made it really interesting with the crossover/'slam Tony' move, eh?

Oh ya...no fine for the Bullshirt comment. It was said properly, IMO! YEAH!

He was putting his drinking straw in his mouth.

His car was sure hooked up on Sunday.

I did think the "Here kitty kitty kitty" comment was pretty funny when he caught up to Harvick.

I wonder if they drive with their knees??? I know I've been known to drive with no hands in the ruts on I-5. Must have gone 2 miles once without touching the wheel.

Tony is shorter guy, and the new cars are bigger... but I think they drive with their thighs, thats how high up on the wheel they usually are. This was from an inside the car cam, and it looked like he was parked, his car was so smooth at 200mph. He reached with the right hand over to the door and used both hands opening his visor with one hand while taking a sip from a bottle (via straw)in the other. A moment later he opened the visor again and wiped his brow, looking very confident of a win.

Smokes car looked like it was on rails. Bet he just pinned the wheel with his leg and took care of his personal grooming then dove into turn 1...
