Mow For Victory
Anybody know about this? There is a lawn mower being driven across the southern part of the country to raise money and awareness about Vicory Junction Gang Camps. Richard Petty was on Fox and Friends this morning talking about it. They are stopping at mower shops along the way.

Thats really cool expecially since its for a good cause. Those Hustler Riding Mowers accually drives faster than what most people think. Knowing Richard Petty is involved he probably put some goodies in the motor.
