It&#8217;s kind of our deal.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I promised myself if I won (the title), I would buy one whether Dale does or not. It was kind of a little bit of motivation, I&#8217;d say. I&#8217;m not one to buy trophies for myself, but I think a tank would be pretty cool. I want to put one together and have some fun with it. When I&#8217;m done playing with it, I&#8217;ll just park it in the driveway.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Now that Brad Keselowski has won the Sprint Cup Series title he wants to make it clear that he still intends to buy a tank.
