Kimi is super quick no matter what he's driving. I remember a long time ago, we were having a night out and Kimi had just closed a deal with Sauber F1 team. We were in a night club ready to go and Kimi was in the mood for a little race against a guy who at the time was all over the news with his big time IT success and his new Lambo Diablo. This IT guy had also taken part in some small time racing and obviously wanted to test his skills against Kimi.
Kimi was driving his beat up Audi A3 1.8T with one off those tiny spare wheels due to and accident earlier that week. And off they went at 4AM Kimi in the audi and the IT guy in his brand new Lambo. We just stood there in the parking lot and listened to the sound of the Diablo somewhere in the distance. About 10 minutes later Kimi showed up and the guy in the Lamborghini followed him after another minute or so. Kimi was just laughing and having fun like he always is. Really nice guy and he also has a nice collection of cars and bikes.
And NasCar is just another way to have some fun. He once said that he'd like to do the LeMans 24h race and try rally and NasCar before he retires from racing.
And he seems to be doing pretty good with the lap times in the testing...

Racing those trucks will be a whole different story, but it'll be interesting to see how he'll do.
