Folks, the people at Stewart-Haas Racing are not playing around this NASCAR weekend. They’re bringing Talladega Nights to life on Sunday. Ryan Preece and Chase Briscoe are going to be the new Ricky Bobby and Cal Naughton Jr. Wonder Bread and Old Spice, hitting the track together.
Almost as soon as the playoff race at Texas was over, Stewart-Haas Racing began teasing things. Taking a video of a drawer in one of the haulers, SHR showed off the upcoming sponsors. The drawer was marked “Talladega” and it was filled with goodies.
In the video, you could see a bowling ball (Go Bowling! for Aric Almirola). Then there is a can of Busch Light (Kevin Harvick). Also in the video, a loaf of Wonder Bread (Preece), a stick of Old Spice deodorant (Briscoe), and a Monster Energy drink (Riley Herbst).
Then, they confirmed the news. Talladega Nights in real life.
