No kidding. Give me a Pearl or give me death...I'll take death.

Hey Larry...I know you are not a beer drinker. I've seen you with those umbrella drinks at the local watering holes after a day of racing is over! Ha!

Pabst Blue ribbon exists as a brand name but the Pabst brewing company is no longer a real entity. They closed their last brewery a few years ago and now Miller makes PBR. I love the famous PBR quote from the movie slapshot, but if I were to transcribe it here I'd be out on my arse.

Busch is tough stuff...not as bad as Meister Brau though!

Anyone remember the Papst Blue Ribbon Charger? I never saw it at the track as it was before my time but I did see it in the movie Varrroooom.

Then when I went to the anti-freeze section there was the NHRA logo on the Prestone jugs. Needless to say it was a good day at the store for this drag racing fanatic.

Lemme guess, Checker shchuck's or kragen?

Nope it was a Fred Myere store. On the flip side I went into a hobby store and there was tons and tons of NASCAR and no drag racing. I'm going to guess that the NASCAR models wern't selling to well because they had so much of it. I know it's popular but they appeared to me to be over stocked since it wasn't particularly a NASCAR store.

Not enough sales on a couple previous attempts by a couple of companies.
