How It All Started

It was one early spring NASCAR race in 2018 at Texas Motor Speedway. The weather was cold and rainy. The party vibe was ruined. As they stood around a tiny space heater, Doug turned to Rick and said, "We need something climate controlled, so we can party regardless of the weather."
