I would've thought that anyone who had it taped would avoid a thread called "NASCAR News" until they'd watched it. I don't have the pay channel that shows F1 races live, so I watch the highlights a few hours later and make sure that I don't listen to the news or look at any sports websites until I know the result.

My curiosity got the better of me and I googled it, although I knew several of the other manufacturers acronyms I came across.

Yes, best not to post the full acronym, Hobie.

All G8s were made in Australia (Elizabeth, South Australia to be precise) by Holden (Australia's arm of GM). They put a different grille on a Holden Commodore and called it a Pontiac.

The Pontiac G8 is a rebadged Holden Commodore (still looks like a great car). BTW. Spike, why do college girls drink gas on spring break?

FWIW, you've posted "Sleepy CITY" three times including last night and "SLEEPY City" four times in the A-Z game. You also mentioned "Sleepy City" in another reply.

The search feature on HNet works pretty well and it only takes seconds if you want to check. While you're viewing a thread it'll default to only searching that thread, so you don't get results from the whole site (unless you want to).

It sounds like Dale Earnhardt Sr's death affected NASCAR in a similar way to which Ayrton Senna's death at the 1994 San Marino Grand Prix affected F1. I still remember watching that race live even though it'll be the 30th anniversary later this year. BTW, Dale Earnhardt Sr passed away in 2001, so tomorrow is 23 years since his death.

Yes, you did in 2020 (here) and Roth Potter did in 2014 (here) - both in this thread, and in response to the same post.

I wouldn't be surprised if Garrett made this meme.

Country singer Toby Keith has passed away at the age of 62. He had been diagnosed with stomach cancer back in 2022.

For Dukes fans, he was also appeared as himself in the 2000 TV movie "The Dukes of Hazzard: Hazzard in Hollywood".

There is nearly 17 years between the ages of Les Tremayne and Sorrell Booke, so on paper the relationship is just about possible, but I'll agree that the gap looks less. Memorably, Sean Connery played Harrison Ford's father in 'Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade' despite there being slightly less than 12 years between them, but somehow that relationship seemed more believable. I'm sure there are many more examples. Incidentally, I've just realized that Sorrell Booke and Sean Connery were both born in 1930, but I can't imagine them swapping roles!

Regarding Big Daddy and Boss' momma, as the show went on, I don't think much emphasis was placed on a sticking to a consistent backstory or canon. This obviously went completely out of the window in the 2007 movie when they find the car that would become the General Lee at the bottom of a lake, ignoring the storyline of 'Happy Birthday, General Lee'.
