Silver Minings: Derek Carr hypes up crowd at NASCAR race

Derek Carr has been having quite the busy offseason. It seems like every week his name is in the news somehow.

On Sunday, Carr attended the Pennzoil 400 at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway, and got the race started with a bang.

He took the mic, screaming one of the more iconic lines in sports: “LET’S GO!”

I’m not personally a fan of NASCAR, but after hearing how hyped he was, I’m ready to go win that damn race.
