To know that we collectively raised a record $2.7 million for @VictoryJunction on the 30th Anniversary @KPCharityRide is absolutely incredible!

31 years ago, I raced the infamous pumpkin car. Here's the real story behind that design.

Davant's perfect Charity Ride route includes ice cream stops.

Denny Hamlin got stuck a lap down at Phoenix and could not get his lap back. @SteveLetarte, @HBurtonRacing, and I talk about an eventful day for the 11 team.

The loneliest road in America, the perfect place to write a song.

Had an incredible day yesterday visiting Consolidated Pipe and Supply headquarters in Birmingham, Alabama. It was fascinating to see how much work goes into a single pipe. This company is made up of a great group of hardworking people and we are blessed to call them part of our Charity Ride family.

Grateful for the Manafort family's generosity to support the Charity Ride and Victory Junction through this auction. Get your bids in today!

If you've got more to lose, then you have to think 2 steps ahead on pit road. Denny Hamlin cost himself some time on pit road this weekend.

A rapid change of direction is all it takes sometimes to lose control of your racecar. Alex Bowman learned that the hard way at Charlotte this weekend. A new episode of Inside the Race drops tomorrow morning on Apple Podcasts and Spotify. Find the show here: Spotify: tinyurl.com/4687ebez  Apple: tinyurl.com/2mup5ejd

Inside the Race (behind the scenes)

My favorite way to spend a Sunday. Good to see everybody, ready to see what 400 back on the oval looks like.

Never grow up.

The annual Charity Ride reunion is something I always look forward to in the fall. This time, at a new location! It was great night catching up with members of our Charity Ride family.

Charlotte! Always great to catch up with our Coca Cola Racing Family ahead of a hometown race weekend.

Ditka, Gretzky and I were spokesmen for PEAK antifreeze in the late 80s. Mike was part of our pit crew at Daytona in 88. Great memories of a great man.

400 Laps at Charlotte is going to go by in a flash. Who has the edge to gain the advantage early?

Kicked off our Charity Ride reunion weekend with a KPCR Board Meeting. These guys do so much to help out behind the scenes and are key to all the great work we do to support Victory Junction.

Join us tomorrow!

It's good to see so many people come out to support Doug and the B.R.A.K.E.S. program. There's nothing more important than keeping kids safe.
