President Trump is planning on taking the presidential limo, known as "The Beast," for a ride at the Daytona 500.
The White House is working with NASCAR officials for Trump to do a lap on the Daytona track in Florida to start off the racing season on Sunday, sources told Fox News White House correspondent John Roberts, who said the plan is "not 100%" as the logistics are still being worked out.
Trump plans to attend the Daytona 500, which marks the start to NASCAR’s 2020 season, on his way back to Washington, D.C., after a weekend at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Palm Beach, Florida. A Trump campaign adviser leaked plans for the stop earlier in the week.
"It’s the base," a Trump campaign adviser said. "God-fearing, country-loving Americans."
NASCAR welcomed the president’s visit and named him the grand marshal of Sunday’s race, making Trump the first sitting president to hold the honor.

Does he know that the track only goes 'left'?

It would be cooler if they would let him drive it.

I remember Biden moaning about how the powers that be would not let him drive his Vette when he was VP. Something about being to dangerous and Biden being to valuable to the Country to loose.
Trump on the other had, may not even know how to drive a car. Most New Yorkers never even own a car and Trump has always been chauffeured in limousines.
So I can see that Trump would be discouraged from driving the Beast. BUT it would bee freaking awesome.
