Are you in need of a break from politics this Friday night after a long two weeks of conventions? If so, then this is the video for you.
Some guy’s security camera kept catching a neighborhood boy riding his bicycle in his driveway every night, so he decided to do something about it. The something being drawing a chalk racetrack and, well, it’s a really great video. Have a watch:
But it gets better. NASCAR people reached out to this blue-check and wanted to send the little boy some swag:
Public plea: I’m trying to find the guy that has the driveway, and the kid. I’ve got NASCAR drivers who want to send them stuff! If you know who they are, please DM me.

It’s very creepy, but people were able to quickly identify the home:
UPDATE: All of you are amazing! Thanks to your input I’ve identified the guy in the video with the driveway. I’ve reached out to him directly, he wants to remain anonymous. One person found the driveway- it’s in Salt Lake City. Still looking for the kid, NASCAR has gifts for him! pic.twitter.com/2JwKflPK25
