L5Larry Posted March 3, 2009 Report Share Posted March 3, 2009 OK, I'll play. Dale Ernhardt (sp) is obviously one of them. I'll link the goldtop to early Allman Bros and Duane Allman. Do I win a prize? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matiac Posted March 4, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2009 No prize L5, but yer close. No, I was just lamenting on the loss of my Goldtop, and was comparing the extremely fast play of it to the extremely fast driving of Dale, and the fact that he's gone, and so is my Goldtop. Old news, I know, it was just a lament is all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackHawk233 Posted March 4, 2009 Report Share Posted March 4, 2009 I still remember that race, They showed the pic of the Ambulance going away from the Raceway... Then I heard he was gone, I was so sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackHawk233 Posted March 4, 2009 Report Share Posted March 4, 2009 I actually kinda hate nascar, but as a kid I watched it, and I respected D.E, Damned good racer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LPguitarman Posted March 5, 2009 Report Share Posted March 5, 2009 That looks like a Gold Top Classic with the 1960 on the pick guard. Nice guitar, to bad you don't have it anymore. I heard the 1960 rubs off eventually. Sure would be nice if they engraved it into the pick guard. I'm not much for Nascar either. I like Jeff Dunham's dummy joking about Nascar.

ChanMan Posted March 5, 2009 Report Share Posted March 5, 2009 We miss Big E at the Chandler household. If all you see are cars making left turns, then you're right... you don't get NASCAR. Here's a clue.... imagine you're going to take a family of 5 to Disney world.... you, your wife, your 5 year old son, your 3 year old daughter and your new 6 month old baby boy. Only... in this case, 42 other families of 5 are going, too. First one there gets a million bucks. 2nd place pays 40k. bathroom breaks... "daddy I'm hungry".... "Honey let's stop for the night and get a hotel"..... you gotta deal with all that and still be first..... THAT's a NASCAR race.... 1,000,000 things to go wrong in a 500 mile race.... and yet you see drivers win multiple times in a season. Sure, sometimes you can take a nap between laps 172 and 412... and still see the best part of the race. Just like you can between the 3rd and 8th innings... or the 5th and 15th holes.... or the 2nd and 3rd quarters.... Or all the way until March in college basketball........... I'm just sayin'.... way more than left turns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jnastynebr Posted March 5, 2009 Report Share Posted March 5, 2009 I hate Nascar' date=' its like adding a floating trem on a gtr, people get stupid. Can't think what to add in a lead; grab the whammy and do a dive bomb..... Hey lets do something out of the ordinary, lets do right turns instead.... lol Or Just have Rusty get back in his Miller Lite car and drive backwards and bring back everything and everyone like he did in the miller commercials....[/quote'] +1. nascar sucks.

NASCAR is about watching the sport too. Driving in it seems to be a thrilling challenge. But I wouldn't care to watch 43 different families drive themselves to Disney World either. As a watcher, what's in it for me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
