Clanton / Weiss post race...

[chupp n bloomer fan]

Well I heard from Tom Cruise himself at a Union 76 Station that the movie was based off the rivalry between Dave Marcis and Jim Sauter.

Give it a rest already.

(not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word) Trickle got more play out of that movie then anyone b/c of Cruise's character name in the film.

I heard some guy thought he was going to become the new sheriff of 4m, which is totally out of character for him, and he was told to go pound sand, fly a kite, etc etc.

Clanton IS & always has been AN IDIOT. The Georgia gang of thugs appeared to be out in force, looks like a Trump rally was about to break out.

Nothing political man, that was Clanton’s home state, Ricky was far from home. Still haven’t seen footage to give an opinion. I don’t think Shane woulda needed any help.

My gut even though I do not like Clanton what so ever and have really started to like Ricky is that Ricky was faster after 5-10 laps, and couldn’t clear Shane. So he finally said fuk it and moved up, and wasn’t quite clear and Shane turned him. Long as Shane expects the same in return, all good.

And for Gods sake, thank God that it wasn’t NASCRAP. Suspensions, censorship’s, etc.

The group we were with there all grew up watching Randy race around here in the St. Louis area and were fans of his. We lost our sh!t when that window licker pulled that. Clanton said it was payback from fairbury or some bs.

It was totally a b!tch move no matter what.

You missed the point my friend.

Whether it's Tim Richmond. Earnhardt, Bodine, Yarborough, Kulwicki, Allison, etc., doesn't really matter.

What made the film great, to this day, is that it takes all of us back to a time when we all truly enjoyed Nascar, not only for the racing on the track, the personalities of its stars, but also the rivalries they created.

Which two drivers we believe inspired the script is secondary to what the film celebrates.

Sadly, those days are long behind us. You think Tim Richmond and Dale rocked the Nascar world 30 years ago...Richmond & Earnhardt would truly be the show today amongst all the cookie cutter, clean cut, sponsor boys.

Sheriff of 4m. That's funny cnb!!
Like you said, not my style.
Carry on.

Give Clanton credit for what, mechanical failure per DoD? I don't think so. I'd attribute it more to being chicken poop. It don't take much to go to someone else's pit area & run your mouth with 10-15 other clowns around you vs the 2 Canucks. Fix your car Chicken poop, get out there & get what you have coming to you. Where was the WoO officiating group? They should know to expect that type of chicken poop behavior from Clanton.

Ok..........but at some point........breathe........

[chopter]

the movie was based on me.

So, are you saying Clanton acted as a Canadian?

[Illtsate32]

The biggest problem in the United States today, accountability. Everybody thinks they are right and know more than the next guy. Even on here, EVERYBODY thinks they know it all...

F@#$!&& right🤣

[Raceready]

A 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

That's good stuff right there ! Most would or should agree with you. He lost many peoples respect at one track where he had won but whined like a little school girl about it taking so many laps to pass a car in front of him is why he knocked the car out of the way. Richard Coconut Headcase Crainium for sure !

Cole Trickle is also based on Jeff Gordon coming up the ranks through the midgets and sprints on dirt. He says it when he pulls up on his bike in the beginning of the movie. I just always thought of Gordon anyways.

I do remember hearing, straight from Cole Trickle's mouth (not Tom Cruise) that the movie was based on the Clanton-Weiss fued from Cherokee speedway

cole trickle was based off of tim richmond... jeff gordon didn't get to the cup series until well after the movie came out.

Yeah I guess you're right. I wasn't sure when Gordon came up but thought it was that exact time the movie came out.

IllState32 you're wrong! Not EVERYBODY thinks they're right. I'm wrong all of the time
