Kenny Wallace to warm up TF car........ (1 Viewer)

[Ma Green]

Kenny was on TV, live, with his back to Cory's car. Everytime Cory hit the throttle Kenny jumped. He then talked to Cory after the car shut off. Cory said "this was for Eric". All in all, great PR for drag racing.

Was this on Fox's pre-race show or something earlier in the day on Speed Channel?

Wayne...it was on Speed Channel's pre-race show. Pretty funny...every time Cory blipped the throttle, Kenny jumped and then turned and playfully shouted to "stop that!"

When they closed the show, they included a replay of one of Kenny's "jumps".

In addition to the tribute to Eric comment; there was also a mention, graphic, and moment of silence for Eric during ESPN's IRL broadcast last night.

Well, that explains why I didn't see it. I don't get Speed here, and I didn't get home for all of the Fox pre-race. Thanks.

One of these I'm going to get around to build the model of that car. I have the decals from Slixx and a resin body.

Now Kenny is supposed to get in and warm up this sleeping giant... And has the opportunity, to do a burnout as I understand, from the statement that was posted before any of this happened... Warm up; one thing... Burn out?? YEAH, RIGHT!! any takers?? money goes to DRAW...

I know I pulled this out of the mothballs but I was jsut wondering if the Carrier Boyz ownership situation will affect Kenny Wallace planned warm up in their car?? If I remember correctly, they were the connection to the Nascar guys.................

 

[Toejam]

I still cannot believe nobody put that clip of KW on Youtube!

I was at the Bristol NASCAR race a few years back when the warmed the
MAC tools digger. You really didn't know what was going on. They didn't announce much of anything. All the sudden you heard this very loud noise
and a echo. It really didn't do it much justice unfortunately.

Then the car got hung up trying to get it out of the track.
