Team that ran Trump truck in October to run 'Trump Victory' truck at Homestead

We have a sequel to the 2016 version of the Trump Truck.

The No. 22 AM Racing team will run a “Trump Victory” truck during the Camping World Truck Series season finale at Homestead-Miami Speedway on Friday night.

The truck, driven by Austin Wayne Self, first had a Donald Trump for president paint scheme in October at Talladega. The team’s release about the “victory” truck claims that Trump “woke up America” with his presidential election win. Maybe we should inform the team that Trump will likely receive more than a million fewer votes than his opponent Hillary Clinton?

The No. 22 truck will likely need some serious NASCAR electoral college shenanigans if it wants to honor Trump appropriately with a win Friday night. Self has averaged a 20th-place finish in his 21 starts this season.

We also may get a chance to hear NASCAR CEO Brian France’s thoughts on Trump’s win Friday too. France, who endorsed Trump at a rally in February, is having his first media availability since January. France’s endorsement of Trump earlier this year came just months after NASCAR said it wouldn’t host any season-ending celebrations at Trump properties following comments Trump made about Mexicans at the beginning of his candidacy.
