Default LG Motorsports rig spotted I40 in New Mexico
We passed a nice looking big rig with LG logo on it this evening west bound out of Santa Rosa NM. Had the Rolex Grand Am logo on the side as well. Headed where? What cargo? All I am aware of out west right now is Nascar in Vegas (saw several Nascar and related rigs on I40 today).

I think that they are headed west to Willow Springs for the Redline TV show gig. Some sort of short stint sprint gig against other teams for TV.....I think that they took the GA car out there with some minor tweaks.

The only reason we were able to pass the big rig is because it was on one of those long uphill pulls at 7,000 feet altitude!

Yeah...that isn't fun in a car at that altitude...much less pulling 72,000 lbs. Some of those hills are painfully slow.

Did you honk? I try to flash or wave at as many Vette owners I see.

We were in a Ford Explorer, and I was the passenger and as we went by I gave Thumbs Up!
