I doubt that the dirty F-350 with duallies and a bull sack hanging under there is road race ready... that guy's just a farmer who figured it was funny. But... dollars to donuts, any car with a dangly and a male driver under 40 is ready to go light to light.

I saw the same show, and thought to myself "Wow - that explains all the stupid crap I see hanging from cars!"
