2021 Richmond 400 Tyrannotitan's universe

Even before the race started the 2021 Richmond 400 has proved itself to be one of the craziest race weekends. With free practice delayed by 30 minutes due to an unloading accident that left Easy Idle backup pitty Peter Hawkins in hospital and Danny Swervez starting last after he crashed in quaifying despite being fastest in practice. Richie Gunzit missed the race because of being sick due to tasting tire rubber of Danny Swervez. J.P Drive somehow got the pole position.

It become one of the most historic races of the season as while Henry Lugnut won the race, Monty Piceski took a surprise 2nd place and Dan Carcia took an even more shocking 3rd place after a massive 15 car pileup on the second last lap of the race caused by Ace Cohen and Barry Depedal making contact with caused Ace Cohen to go airborne and flipping several times like The King and Barry to collect other cars. Mindy Gearson also gets her second highest rank in 5th. The race was not red flagged and the final two laps were finished under caution because most of the DNF cars were on the grass or able to go back to the pits. Henry won his 2nd race in 2021.
