Which will begin *and* end with Marcia Brady.


Oh the stories about Maureen were endless
She went to Taft High School in Woodland Hills and was friends with Buffy of Jody and Buffy fame. Reportedly Mo was at the party where Buffy died of a drug overdose.

I know it's down to whatever is available the cheapest and easiest, but I can't get over that those shows (and a few other more obscure ones) are easy to see while classics like "Fernwood 2Night" and "SCTV" are nowhere to be found.

I thought the post race interview with Marcus Armstrong, where the interviewer mentioned he had so much more P2P than Dixon, and he responded "I didn't know that..." was pretty interesting. Given the P2P disparity going into the final laps it seemed like Armstrong could have really harried his teammate, had his race strategist just informed him.

I don't know that he cared.  The rest of the interview I saw had him relatively pleased with his position and not particularly willing to dice with Dixon and risk a bad outcome, earning Chip's considerable wrath.  Now, if it had been Newgarden . . .     :cool:

Yes, Oceanside !!!

There was a a group of stoner kids who's parents had places there.

The area was crawling with drug dealers...since the 90's it's been cleaned up.

Has anyone heard anything about crowd numbers for the race? From what I saw on the coverage I thought it looked pretty decent...

Came upon this race and thought I’d watch the last part to see what people were raving about in comparison to F1. Maybe it was this race, but not really impressed. Pretty consistent gaps and little racing in the end, except that failed attempt at closing up from the 3rd to the 4th placed driver.

Like any sport, the more you know about it the more interesting it gets.
This race was not as good as the one at Barber but still allright - if you know about who is good ar saving fuel or saving tires it makes for more interesting watching as you get to see how the strategies play out.

The race before this one (Barber) was more spectacular, and at a real circuit with hills and green scenery - I'd recommend watching back that race.

Oh, I know. Well, the Camp was just up the road. Just surprised Maureen made the trek down. 

 

I had some friends that lived in a nice suburban area just a short distance from the main drag (Hill). Then again, they found Anissa in a more upscale suburban house near a country club, so... 

 

Pretty much like what went on in many an upscale suburban community back in the 70s.
