As gas prices continued rising because of President Joe Biden’s policies, it wasn’t long before the severity of the problem let itself be felt to all facets of the society, to everyone regardless of what they do. And speaking of people and their professions, one can assume that those in NASCAR might have something to say about this issue.

That’s exactly what Rodney Childers, the crew chief of Stewart-Haas Racing driver Kevin Harvick, recently did.

“With diesel at 5.50 a gallon, could all the stores and banks please make it where your pump doesn’t cut off at $100….. Running your card 3 times to fill up makes it even worse. It gives you time for your brain to want to explode between each swipe..🤯… 🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️,” he tweeted.

This led to NASCAR spotter Brett Griffin throwing his “guess” in the mix.

“People would go over their credit card limits. CC companies protecting themselves. That’s my guess,” Griffin reacted.
