Rodney Sandstorm can wheel!
wait so nascar use those steering wheels now 😂
It’s was a lot fun to see the Garage 56 Camaro and the Airslayer in the mix this year along with the Beamer. Not that the Bimmers weren’t fun too but it’s neat to see where other areas of the motoring world place in the rankings.
It also raises the perpetual tire question, if some of the top performing street cars like the new GT3 RS weren’t limited to road legal tires how much of the 10.5 second gap could it close if you let it run on track slicks.
So cool to see this!
That transmission calibration is CLEAAAAAAAANNNNNNNNN.
Watching Jordan saw the wheel at light speed was a sight to behold. Making this elephant dance around VIR was nothing short of amazing. Love this kid. Hope he gets to try a few more cup races to demonstrate his ability.
Noooo it can't be one of the last competitive events for this masterpiece 😢💔 0:43
That was awesome!! Love that car.
Jimmie and Carlos have never been seen in the same room together. Just sayin….
Damn the day of he was told they want him to break the record? Think if he got like 6 months of practice. He’s obviously a professional. Awesome to know there’s drivers like this.
Epic! No other way to say it. Kudos to C&D for including the G56.
This car needs to do a farewell tour of other US tracks!!!!
Jordan gives away his sportscar roots by using the moniker "NASCAR" for the car itself. He's a seasoned and fast driver, and it's a pleasure watching him work that big car.
The G56 Camaro should be used to create a new class. Was awesome to see it race at Leman
The best looking Camaro! Change my mind. The front end ,👌.
Can we get the raw lap video footage so we can actually hear the car?
