What’s one of the worst ways you could start a weekend?
How about having to cram for a test you didn’t know you had to take?
And what if that test had to be taken at the Department of Motor Vehicles?
Welcome to Kaz Grala’s nightmare and our favorite thing on NASCAR Twitter today.
The Richard Childress Racing driver was met with this scenario Friday when he journeyed to the DMV to switch his Massachusetts license for a North Carolina one.
Finally got around to switching my license from MA to NC at the DMV.

Homeboy at the counter just told me because I got my license under the age of 18 in MA that I have to retake my written and road tests today...
This is a disaster. Wish me luck. I’m gonna need it. 😬
Let the cramming begin! Are North Carolina traffic signs just like those in Massachusetts?
The tension builds....

Grala could lose his license if he drives faster than 75 mph. Can he get a waiver from NASCAR?

Whoa, we were sweating bullets there for a minute. Now comes the hard part. Some helpful reminders before you leave the parking lot:
- Doughnuts are for after the race, not during it.
You can’t bring your spotter along for the test.- When traffic slows down near an exit, just keep your foot on the gas and drive right by them on the outside. It’ll work, your tires are matched perfect and staggered special.
UPDATE: Passed the eye and written exams ✅

Just have to pass the road portion now 😅
He did it! Kaz Grala is your latest licensed driver in the state of North Carolina.
Now what’s the most important thing we learned from all this?
The next time you see the RCR driver, make sure to put extra emphasis on Kaz Edward Grala.
I passed. Again. 🙏🏻
