I LOVE how ceremonial and respectful this moment of command is in @NASCAR - this record breaking crowd of over 100,000 strong - in complete SILENCE until I say the word “engines”, as the drivers fire up at the same time. 

This whole thing gave me CHILLS, especially as our U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds perform their iconic flyover ✈️ 🇺🇸 

My absolute honor to give this command with the respect and energy it deserves. 

THANK YOU fans, drivers, teams and @NASCAR for being so warm and welcoming and treating me like FAMILY. 

I will never forget this day. 

If you ever need the People’s Champ again to bring the heat - you know where to find me 🎤🇺🇸
