Stewart Wheels M36 Tank At Charlotte


 
Last year, three-time and reigning NASCAR Sprint Cup Series Champion Tony Stewart swapped cars with Formula 1 World Champion Driver Lewis Hamilton for a day. This year, Mobil 1 gave fans the opportunity to choose Tony’s ride. After three rounds of voting on the Mobil 1 Facebook page, Tony Stewart debuted the Mobil 1 Formula Drift Chevy Camaro SS as the “Choose Tony’s Ride with Mobil 1” fan-favorite on Tuesday at Charlotte Motor Speedway.

While the
Formula Drift Camaro claimed 65% of the online Fan Vote, Stewart bent the rules a bit, seizing the opportunity to wheel a World War II-era M36 GMC Jackson Tank on the infield road course.

    I'd like to see him drive that out of the pits this Sunday and watch the other driver's reactions.......

    GREAT show today, in spite of the fact that turnips seemed to be calling in. I couldn't get through to add my Mr. Potato Head's two cents worth.

    Kind of adds new meaning to a driver saying he was run over.
