It has been more than nine years since Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby premiered. It has been just one day since NASCAR drivers did their best impressions from the film (and Days of Thunder).
Here are the best impressions in a brilliant campaign to advertise the The Chase for the NASCAR Sprint Cup. Shake and bake.
