    Basically the same thing, celebrating the date of our founding as a nation, July 1st 1867. :) 

    I remember when I was a kid and once in awhile finding a Canadian 1967 penny in my change. Did their other coins commemorate the 100th anniversary? I can't remember them. 

  2. Garrett's car sputters a bit but is back to firing on all 8 cylinders in a jiffy. He's still in first. In fact, nobody has passed anybody these past few seconds but Garrett's lead isn't as big as it once was.

    And now Emma is fighting Jesse for fourth place. She is right behind him ready to make a pass on his truck. She has plenty of practice since she makes a pass on him every time he comes into the post office. 

  3. Things really going downhill from here. Even Skipper has passed Roger. Looking like a fourth place finish. 

    But wait! In the excitement of the competition Roger forgot about the back up nitrous oxide Cooter installed for moments just like this. He hits the toggle switch to turn the primary system off and hits another switch to turn the secondary system on. Once again g-forces push him back.

      He passes Skipper and is on the move...back into third place. A quick glance in the mirror shows Emma Tisdale closing in on Skipper. The front wheel of her dirt bike has been off the ground the last several miles. But she is starting to run low on nitrous oxide.

  4. And then something went wrong with Roger's truck. The nitrous oxide system failed. Little did Roger know that the tank sprung a leak. That would explain why he had been laughing hysterically the whole race. But the good news is that the front wheels returned to the ground and Roger regained control of the steering. The bad news is that Garrett started pulling ahead. At this point it looked like Roger might finish third. But this is Hazzard. The race ain't over.

    Thanks, Garrett. I hope you get time to watch the highlights videos that I link to. They're only about 8 minutes long, and probably make a lot more sense than my reviews.

    That's good news that Chase Elliot got a win at the weekend.

    The races are so long and there is always so much to do I usually only watch highlights. Depending on what I am doing I usually keep an eye on sporting events on TV and just watch the end of them live. Except for pro dirt bikes. Can't get enough of those. I'd love to see Miz Tisdale race those guys. She'd make them look like snails with racing decals.
