In this video you'll see the old guy in the Porsche Taycan that showed up to raceweek, which is odd enough on its own, clearly didnt understand drag racing and almost drove off the end of the track



Turns out he's ex CIA and had been talking, 10 days later they found the car abandoned out in the sticks and he's been missing ever since

The guy he raced in the first video with the white 911 is now making a video series looking for him

I remember seeing that when it came out, I'll have to check up on the search video. Uncle Chet is an interesting Character.

I was at Great Bend and saw this happen in person.

Lots of people mad when he was "launching" in the pits in the middle of everyone. Not sure how he even was able to race as he wasn't part of RMRW up to that point. shruggy
