Seeing how fast Hobie and Uncle Jesse had gotten their vehicles to go fast, Garrett wonders what kind of work they put into their vehicles and why Garrett for once decided to race fair. "This is why NASCAR has all them silly rules," he mutters to himself as he momentarily holds Hobie off in hopes of making it to the finish line first.
Jesse gets on the CB to Skipper
"This ain't looking too good Skipper. If it wasn't me who was going to win this race I was hoping you were going to. But I don't see how we can catch either one of these guys.
And to make matters worse it's getting downright dangerous back here. It's starting to look like your boat hitch is starting to come loose. I'd hate to see it come undone....but it would make you faster. But the bad news is (Jesse starts singing) The Minnow would be lost...The Minnow would be lost.
And it's getting dangerous on my other side too. Emma keeps staring at me and taking her eyes off the race track. I'm really starting to be sorry I agreed to this. Remind me to tell Hobie next year I'm not doing it."
Just like Gilligan's Island when it got cancelled to bring back Gunsmoke. Season 3 Gilligan the Goddess episode #98 nobody knew at the time in 1967 that would be Gilligan's Island final episode.
Hobie was making his Mauler go faster and faster with the special additive he put inside the engine....PGA !! *
Pure Grain Alcohol.......Moon! He learned how to add it to his engine and not just his Mason jar, from watching uncle Jesse! ( Another reference that I don't need to explain to anybody here because we all remember the ep. where Jesse ran his car on shine!
"Dang it," Garrett hisses to himself in frustration as he sees Hobie catching up while wondering how Hobie managed to catch up as quickly as he did. Shaking his head he thinks momentarily of blocking Hobie, but didn't want to wreck his car in attempt at doing so. Instead he focuses on pushing the gas pedal farther down and to help his car get faster than what he was doing.
In that same car, when Luke is driving and he says something like " This crate really rolls!", have you guys noticed something was sticking up on the dashboard and I never have been able to figure it out.
Well....this IS Hazzard!......right now it's Garrett and Hobie running neck N neck, but Hobie knows Garrett's a better driver because he's into this kind of stuff, whereas Hobie's mainly into Shine! :)
It has been years since I've seen the show and would like to get the dvds, but I'm worried because Dukes Of Hazzard is on the list of dvds affected by Warner Bros. disc rot. Does anyone know if this is true ? Which complete series set should I try for ?
Mine are fine, but I bought them in the UK/Ireland, so the pressing may be different. I also ripped all of mine to a backup drive just in case.
You may as well start with season 1, although it's the shortest wirh only has 13 episodes.
I know I haven't put out a newsletter in quite some time, but there was a lot of Dukes related news in the past week, so I figured I'd send one out. You can view it here. If you haven't yet signed up for the newsletter, but would like to, you can sign up here.
Very nice! I'm so Happy Ray Kohn is still at it. He hasn't done too much around here though and I don't really like to travel. I miss going to his shows.
