I used to watch motorsports in the 90s. Watched a few NASCAR races on TV , got bored of it real quick. All the same dam cars and all just making left turns.Yep. NASCAR tv ratings have been tanking for a long time. Even hardcore gearheads like myself and friends don’t care for it.
NASCAR is for goofs who have a man crush on the driver, most don’t know jack shit about cars.
The zoomer generation generally doesn’t care about cars much at all. They’d rather watch clips of some doofus dancing in his apartment on social media.
Because he required education in the matter, and apparently so did you. It's pretty obvious you had no idea what the one-drop rule is, or its connection to the referenced history. Willing to bet this is the first time it has ever been mentioned in your post history (spoiler: it isn't mine).
My post confused you in its complication, and this pleases me.
I didn’t and she’s been in a lot of good shows and movies. It’s kind of crazy non leftists don’t immediately try to determine races of people when they are being entertained. It’s almost like you have to look for racism or even worse make it up in today’s day and age.Rashida Jones has been famous for a decade or more, and you never knew she was black (or half black, if you prefer)?
The hell you say.. Sbc for life lol. Yes the Sbc is very old tech but for all these guys creaming themselves over LS engines remember this it took them 70 years to build only a slightly better “ mouse “ trap. I still see many racers whooping ls ass with them including myself.Nah there’s way more useful stuff than that in modern times to come from Moorseville.
SB2/SB2.2/R07 parts are definitely awesome, but they’re essentially the apex of 70 year old SB technology that’s not much use outside of its specific function. (Lol@ Toyota somehow running a pushrod V8 that came in nothing ever lol)
More ubiquitously useful tech that’s trickled down would be advancements in internal powertrain coatings(which are universally used by the commercial OEMs now), cylinder head airflow dynamics, exhaust tech, wind tunnel aerodynamic testing (which benefits all logistics commerce in the form of reduced emissions, fuel consumption, and efficiency) ,advancements in crash and safety , etc...

In at least a few of her roles (Parks and Rec, for instance), her "ambiguous ethnicity" is used as either a plot device or a joke. I didn't have to Google "is Rashida Jones black" to figure it out lmao.
I'm not even attempting to denigrate anyone for not realizing that she's not white. I'm just generally befuddled when people say they thought she was.
Holy...it's already been 3 years??Like this stalled, 3 year old case?

Huh, could it have been the loop on the garage door pull down someone was calling a noose? Even Bubba said he never saw it before it was taken down. Could it have been someone noticing what used to be just blended into the background for the first time, due to all the focus on race lately? Think that pull cord used to be just a straight rope and someone (due to confederate flag stuff) tied it into a noose? But really it'd had an extravagant knot on it the whole time?

The June pic is from when FBI investigating, and someone making the assumption it'd been cut down to grab as evidence
Watching an org made up of left turns turning to the left, priceless.Well, they're in too deep now, not to throw someone to the wolves. If it's all just some misunderstanding, it'll be quite embarrassing for NASCAR after they've suggested that it was an extremely racist act done by one of their own. Even if this was a stunt to garner attention, they really went overboard and didn't think it through, and didn't count on Detective Internet breaking the case.
If that's all it is, the spin should be quite entertaining.
Except he doesn't. At all. I'd guess anything from Spanish to Egyptian or South American before I'd guess black.
He can define himself as whatever he wants. We're just saying he doesn't look black. And in my personal opinion, he can't claim to be the victim of discrimination against blacks when he looks like he could be a member of the Sopranos crew. He has to literally inform people he is black. In big bold letters written across his chest and the hood of his car.
No one could have foreseen this!
