I'm here Mach Man!  I'm Hobie! Remember him on the show? I'm 60/w/m/Tennessee! How about you?

unseen and all but forgotten, Hobie powers through the pack and puts his hammer down and passes everybody!....Even Garrett! He still remembers the Butt kicking Garrett gave him last year! LOL! ( He is also still wondering what's under his hood?) Hobie's also worried about Cousin Roger AND he is STILL trying to find Daisy and Meadow either on the track or in the stands! ( Hobie loves looking at the pretty women!  )

Garrett watches everyone up front with dismay. Even with everything but the best under his hood and in his tank, it wasn't enough to out run everyone's shine they seem to be using and drinking.   Thinking of their drinking, Garrett gains a little confidence in knowing that he should be able to outsmart them being sober. and begins to think of other options before he notices a side road on the  right and he quickly turns right onto the bumpy and rough road that is surrounded by trees and weeds. He holds onto the steering wheel tightly as he is bounced around with his foot all the way on the accelerator. Following the trail around curves and fallen branches he makes his way around a curve to see the opening that leads back onto the track everyone is on. Hoping for the best, he pushes the accelerator down and feels his car jolt forward before he is thrown back on to the track, right next to everyone else! "Surprise!" he yells out his window as he inches ahead of everyone.

Anybody still around?

Thanks!  I just watched it!  The scene where Rosco talks to boss is heart wrenching!
