Exploring ABANDONED Route 66 with My Racecar! (Texas, New Mexico, Oklahoma)

What happens here

Continuing the journey through the night (around 3:45 AM), the explorer arrives at Wilkerson's Gas Station in Newkirk, New Mexico. The poor lighting conditions make internal visibility difficult. He observes the abandoned structure through windows, noting the *unbroken windows* and the presence of *old parts, phone books, and a fuel pump inside*. He later states that research confirmed the station closed in 1989. He expresses caution about entering due to the building's dilapidated state and potential inhabitants in nearby trailers.

Goal: Explore an abandoned gas station in the dark
