On March 2, 1836, while General Santa Anna and the Mexican Army were in the final days of the Siege of The Alamo (culminating into the Battle of The Alamo), Texas formally declared their independence from Mexico inside a small building at Washington-on-the-Brazos. In honor of this 180th anniversary, here’s some Texas cars and Texas legends.

I’ll throw in Krohn Racing and GT2 Champions at the 2008 24hrs of LeMans Risi Competizione/Ferrari of Houston

Texas one and indivisible, cabrones!

Secession gets lots of traction down here, right up until TX finds it needs those dollars from Uncle Sugar.

(I think you’re missing a word in that paragraph, right after the parentheses about the Alamo.)

You're supposed to celebrate tonight BECAUSE you have tomorrow off of work.

Well, technically, we could be divisible by five as the law currently stands, but yes: indivisible!

I included O’Quinn’s car collection for that reason.

That's what I get for not proof reading. Corrected.

Needs more maroon. Here’s Jeff Gordon’s livery for the Texas 500 in 2014. Whoop!
