“No, no. He didn’t slam you. He didn’t bump you. He didn’t nudge you… He *rubbed* you. And rubbin, son, is racin’.”

I’m not a NASCAR fan. At all. But i totally respect almost all motor-sports (and let’s be honest, Days of Thunder is a bitch’n movie) so when I had the chance this week to visit the NASCAR Hall of Fame down in Charlotte, NC I took it. And the place was rather cool. And distinctly American. And I quite enjoyed all the love for the ’77 Cutlass. Check out some pics…
And read about the ’79 Daytona 500 epic-finish & fist-fight here. Racing fan or not, it was pretty bad-ass.
