We’ve had a soft spot for NASCAR ever since Talladega Knights threw the sport into out psyche.

200-112

In all seriousness, the fight took place at the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series race in Gateway Motorsports Park and involved John Wes Townley and Spencer Gallagher.

The pair started grappling following a late crash, there were some short punches thrown and then they both seemed to give up halfway through.

It’s like they lost the will to fight…
