His story:
"Ryan is not only a View Zeen Corrective Windshields driver, he's also a customer. Without it, the race is merely a blur of multi-colored blobs moving at 200 miles per hour. His View Zeen windshield doesn't just help out on the track, it also has a special coating that helps cut down on glare while driving at night, not to mention it makes him look smarter."

His windshield doesn't just help out on the track. It also has a special coating that helps cut down on glare while driving at night, not to mention it makes him look smarter.
