2013 2nd Annual Dukes of Hazzard Family Reunion & Car Show
HossC replied to Song's topic in DukesFest & Other Events
Great pictures - thanks for sharing them. -
Thanks for the summary, Garrett. I watched/listened to most of the race, but had to give up at around 330 laps in because I was too tired (it was somewhere around 3 AM here!). I saw Ricky's tire problem, and he was already five laps down when I turned the race off. He'd spent most of the race down in the low thirties, so I didn't think it would be his night anyway. I hope his form picks up because he hasn't had a good race for a while.

The qualifying for tomorrow night's Toyota Owners 400 got rained out tonight, so the starting lineup is being based on the times in practice 1. That means pole for Kyle Larson who will lead the field at the green flag, even though he doesn't get an official Coors Light Pole Award. Garrett, I'm afraid that points-leader Jeff Gordon starts back in 25th (he was 14th in practice 2), but his HMS team mates Jimmie Johnson and Dale Earnhardt Jr start 10th and 13th. Lizzie, you've got Kyle Busch starting 19th and Austin Dillon back in 27th. Ricky Stenhouse Jr starts two places behind Austin Dillon. 1 Kyle Larson 2 Brad Keselowski 3 Clint Bowyer 4 Kasey Kahne 5 Kevin Harvick 6 Brian Vickers 7 Jamie McMurray 8 Ryan Truex 9 Paul Menard 10 Jimmie Johnson 11 Marcos Ambrose 12 Matt Kenseth 13 Dale Earnhardt Jr 14 AJ Allmendinger 15 Aric Almirola 16 Carl Edwards 17 Joey Logano 18 Ryan Newman 19 Kyle Busch 20 Tony Stewart 21 Kurt Busch 22 Martin Truex Jr 23 Michael Annett 24 Alex Bowman 25 Jeff Gordon 26 Greg Biffle 27 Austin Dillon 28 Denny Hamlin 29 Ricky Stenhouse Jr 30 David Reutimann 31 Justin Allgaier 32 Travis Kvapil 33 David Gilliland 34 Casey Mears 35 Danica Patrick 36 Reed Sorenson 37 David Ragan 38 David Stremme 39 Josh Wise 40 Cole Whitt 41 Joe Nemechek 42 J.J. Yeley 43 Landon Cassill Weather permitting, the action from the Richmond International Raceway starts tomorrow (Saturday) at 7:00 PM ET. It's live on Fox.

The actress's name is Mews Small. During the '70s and early '80s, when she was in movies like 'Sleeper' and 'One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest', she seems to have mainly been credited as Marya Small. In the second half of the '80s she appeared five times as Merrya Small and once as Mary Small. After that it appears that she reverted to Mews Small. I'm not sure why. In the picture of Cooter's tow truck, my guess would be that the dark patches are oil.

Those are the only ones that I remember, although the Comfurts were second cousins.

Here are a couple of bloopers from season 3. In 'Hazzardville Horror' the crooks drive a blue van with "Good Neighbor Plumbing Co." written on the side and back. However, when they rob Boss at gunpoint near the end of the episode, the van has no signs on it. Near the start of 'And In This Corner, Luke Duke', Cletus helps Rosco move Boss's mirror in the Boar's Nest parking lot. As he turns it to show the approaching General, a soundman holding a boom mic is briefly visible on the left of the reflection.

For me, the site was only down for an hour or two yesterday evening. I checked on www.isup.me, and confirmed the site was down. No problems today .

nervous (Only because it reminded me of the Lemon Jelly track below) Ready? Ready.

There's always the Chinese F1 Grand Prix this Sunday, but I fear that the 3 AM ET start may be a bit early/late for Garrett .

I forgot to comment on this picture the other day. Could it be that they used a real crocodile/alligator for some of this scene and used a water tank to keep control of where the action took place. If they did, they black line could be a rubber band, which is all you need to keep their mouth shut! I'll let Stephen Fry explain it on an old episode of the BBC panel show QI.

Just an quick update to the Gene Haas/F1 story that I posted a couple of months ago. F1 has now accepted an entry from NASCAR owner Gene Haas to run a team in the 2015 season. It was mentioned by the commentators during the race on Saturday, but I forgot to post it then. Gene Haas commented "Obviously, we're extremely pleased. It's an exciting time. Now, the really hard work begins."

Thanks for the round-up, Garrett. I stuck with the race until about 90 to go, but had to call it a night. At least Ricky Stenhouse Jr. made up about seven or eight places by the end, and I don't think he hit the wall either .

I can see the point of making drivers try to get wins (F1 gives 25 points for first and only 18 for second to try and acheive this), but a few more consistent drivers should be rewarded too. They're playing with the points in F1 this year too. The last race has taken place in Brazil for the last few years, but this year the season finishes in Abu Dhabi and the race scores double points. Bernie Ecclestone (the boss of F1) wanted the last three races to score double, but the plan received a unanimous "no" vote at a meeting earlier this year.

That's real downtown Los Angeles. They're running across Temple on Main (the "ple" of the Temple Street sign is just visible between them). In the background you can see the bridge that links City Hall with City Hall East. You can explore for yourself on Google Streetview. Spin the camera 90 degrees to the left and you'll see where the photo below was taken.

You're right. Austin Dillon has been driving well this year, as has fellow rookie Kyle Larson. I still have to think twice to remember that JPM is no longer driving the #42 car .

Kevin Harvick has just claimed pole for the Bojangles' Southern 500 at Darlington - he was also quickest in practice 1. Just for a change, Brad Keselowski starts all the way back in fifth! Garrett, I'm afraid it's mixed news for your drivers - Jeff Gordon starts in ninth, but Jimmie Johnson failed to make it through the first round of qualifying. Jimmie starts in 26th, two places ahead of Ricky Stenhouse Jr. Lizzy, you've probably told us already, but which driver(s) do you go for? Here's the full lineup: 1 Kevin Harvick 2 Joey Logano 3 Aric Almirola 4 Marcos Ambrose 5 Brad Keselowski 6 Jamie McMurray 7 Ryan Newman 8 Kyle Busch 9 Jeff Gordon 10 Denny Hamlin 11 Paul Menard 12 Martin Truex Jr 13 Kurt Busch 14 Brian Vickers 15 Dale Earnhardt Jr 16 Clint Bowyer 17 Kyle Larson 18 AJ Allmendinger 19 Greg Biffle 20 Austin Dillon 21 Carl Edwards 22 Kasey Kahne 23 Tony Stewart 24 Justin Allgaier 25 Matt Kenseth 26 Jimmie Johnson 27 David Gilliland 28 Ricky Stenhouse Jr 29 Josh Wise 30 Michael Annett 31 Casey Mears 32 David Ragan 33 Danica Patrick 34 Alex Bowman 35 Landon Cassill 36 Dave Blaney 37 David Stremme 38 Parker Kligerman 39 Ryan Truex 40 Reed Sorenson 41 Travis Kvapil 42 Cole Whitt 43 Joe Nemechek Only David Reutimann failed to qualify. Remember y'all, this is a Saturday race at 6:30 PM ET on Fox.

That's a pretty comprehensive list, PJ. I only have a couple of small additions: Cletus wore a red and white plaid shirt with jeans in 'Enos Strate to the Top' in season 3. Cooter changed his cap regularly e.g. DOG, Red Rose Animal Feeds etc., so you can also narrow the time frame by checking his headgear.
