Kings Royal Driver History

“Hear Ye! Hear Ye!

This summons is being served to let it be known to all the people across the land, including the Kings, Queens and their Courts, The Emperors, Dukes, Nobles, Knights, Marquis’, Earls, Counts and Pages – When the checkered flag falls and the dust settles on July 16th, in the year of our Lord 2022, a man will have conquered what only twenty other men have accomplished. After he has been crowned by the Royal Sovereign, history will have been made, and from that day forth, he shall be known as the Racing King of all Kings.”
