The RPMs sing as past NHRA Pro Stock world champion Bo Butner does a burnout across the starting line in his “ Lightning McQueen ” themed Pro Stock Camaro during qualifying at the NHRA Nevada Nationals . Since the race takes place over Halloween weekend , Butner usually sports a special edition wrap on his car to match his crew ’ s costumes . This year , the theme was Disney ’ s Cars franchise , complete with a Radiator Springs photobooth in the Bo Butner Racing / Johnson ’ s Horsepowered Garage pit area .
