I know Hoosier, those were the good ol days for sure, I remember being at Pocono in '85 when my favorite driver Tim Richmond and Earnhardt got into a verbal snit about the 3 car doin' his thing against Tim in one of the corners and Richmond told him don't pull that sh*t again or he would be kissing the wall comin out of the final turn; Tim told me later that France needed a controversy to get the Winston series relevant again; funny thing is later Tim and Dale shared a beer in Tim's trailer and laughed their asses off about it. It's all about the PUB and getting their fans interested in racing for the good of the sport, thats all it isLight My Fire / Doors

Clanton 'racin'...its a points defense. He wrecked Weiss since Weiss is about to pass him in the point chase. 12 behind going in is now 28. Watch out to the 18 who likely is next on the hit list. Home track embarrassment not being able to run up front with the Bloomer chassis cars & Overton.

Yeah, you're no doubt right havaT, and with the Outlaw point structure being what it is with 150-146-144-142-140 on down, it doesn't give Weiss much of a chance to pass Clanton in what few races are left. And if Junghans is next, I have a feeling Chase will really get charged up, he's a big drink of water

I would really like to see the video of what happened. Im not saying Clanton was right doing it but, most of these guys go from the bottom to the top almost every lap. This is going to continue to happen the way most these touring guys drive. From the touring level down to weekly racing the guy running the top has to get frustrated at some point. When the guy running the bottom shoots to the top down the straightaways. Leave the guy a d*mn lane already!!

Days of Thunder is based off of Tim Richmond. That is Richmond and Earnhardt with the rental cars. It was going to be a biography, but portraying NASCAR and Tim in a good light once he was diagnosed and how they all handled it, wasn’t a good way to do it. So they went off script and scrapped the biography.Originally posted by HoosierDirtFan View PostThe Earnhardt - Bodine stuff was funny.

They used Hendrick’s stuff, hence City Chevrolet. And Tom Cruise with Indy and sprint car stuff before NASCAR.Up in the air who my next “favorite†driver is. Really losing hope on Bloomer getting anywhere back to “normalâ€.

I already know that.
I'm not talking about the movie it self.
I'm talking about the fude in the movie between the two drivers.
Heard that straight from Rick Hendrick him self.
The fude between Burns & Trickle was based of the real life rivalry between Earnhardt & Bodine.Nathan Stephens

Exactly CB, and do u recall when Harry Hogg asked Tom Cruise where he got his expertise on racing and Cruise said " ESPN; they seem to provide great coverage, one can learn alot from there " or mostly to that effect. Tim actually said that to a biographer later on when back in ' 80 when he was racing at the Indy 500 and was named rookie of the race he told the biographer that the late Larry Nuber (remember him ?) was one hell of a racing expert. I miss guys like Larry and Bob Jenkins along with ol Dr Jerry Punch, now that's when Nascrap meant somethin' to all racing fanatics !
And Hoosier, you're right, the feud from the movie was based on Earnhardt and Bodine, but Cruise's character was all Tim Richmond, the screenwriter from that movie told me that himself because he like me was a BIG Richmond fanLast edited by MontanaMagic1619*; 10-04-2019, 06:22 PM.Light My Fire / Doors

And I’ll stand by what I said, in Tim’s book, that it involved him.Last edited by chupp n bloomer fan; 10-04-2019, 06:42 PM.Up in the air who my next “favorite†driver is. Really losing hope on Bloomer getting anywhere back to “normalâ€.

100% agree.Originally posted by gumby_32d View PostA booger eating inbred from Georgia and a Canadian in a shouting match. That's good stuff. I still wish randy korte would strap back in a car and stuff cocanut heads azz in the wall for what he pulled at eldora a few years ago
Everyone knew Korte was done, his disease had taken its toll. That was his last hurrah. And you pulled the sh!ttiest of sh!tty moves at the very beginning of the heat. That is where Shane sealed the deal with me. No sympathy for him.Up in the air who my next “favorite†driver is. Really losing hope on Bloomer getting anywhere back to “normalâ€.

Sorry I should have explained a bit further.
The particular Part of the movie.
The part with the rental cars towards the end of the movie and the meeting with Big Bill France Jr.
Hendrick stated that in a episode of the DALE JR DOWNLOAD tv show a week back.Nathan Stephens
