I find this disturbing.
The Church of Scientology is spreading its gospel to NASCAR, starting in Irwindale.The end of the world MUST be near.
The religion that counts actor Tom Cruise and other Hollywood luminaries among its followers now backs a La Verne stock car driver, Kenton Gray, who competes in one of NASCAR's developmental series at the Irwindale Speedway.
Gray, 35, hopes to qualify for his next race June 24 in the super-late-model class in a car sponsored by Bridge Publications, which publishes the best-selling book, "Dianetics," by Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard.
The hood of Gray's No. 27 Ford Taurus is similar to the book's cover, with "Dianetics" emblazoned across an erupting volcano, and his new team is called the "Ignite Your Potential" Dianetics Racing Team.

There was an article on Scientology in the Star-Tribune a while back, with the person claiming she could make the traffic lights change and get people to call her just by thinking about them. Maybe the driver of the Scientology car will try some of that.
Surly Dave is an ex-Scientologist, but I don't know if he's followed this story.
