7 reasons to watch the Dickies 500 at Texas Motor Speedway: No. 4 - Victory lane

November 5 2009

One of the coolest things about the Texas Motor Speedway race is watching the winner fire pistols in victory lane – while wearing a cowboy hat.

Sometimes it seems fitting. Sometimes it doesn't (see: Jeff Gordon). But it's always entertaining.

Here's hoping the winner of this weekend's Dickies 500 NASCAR Sprint Cup race falls into the latter category. It'd be more fun to see a guy who would never wear a cowboy hat otherwise posing for pictures like an Old West villain, firing shots in the air.

Kurt Busch, anyone?
