Automobile Racing Discussion/News

When he died, my 11 year old who has Cerebral Palsy and was a big fan of Dale Earnhardt was just devastated. The only way I could get him to calm down was telling him that the next day I would take him to a store and buy him something to remember him by. But when we got to the store, every single thing to do with Earnhardt was so expensive that I wouldn't buy anything. I told him "I'm sorry, but $80 for a t-shirt that was $15 the last time we were here is way too much." Fortunately, he understood that.
 
I'm not sure I understand.
I finally remembered... He was a NASCAR Cup Series driver named Jimmy Spencer, aka "Mr. Excitement", and his favorite thing to say was "Jimmy Spencer Never Forgets." He was a big 'ol boy so when Krispy Kreme (overpriced mediocre donuts) sponsored him, naturally my mind went to "Jimmy Spencer Never Forgets To Eat."

Ah yes! Good 'ol Jimmy Spencer!
 
Jimmy Spenser was a good showman, but as a driver, he was mid of the back pack at best. Starts, 478. Wins, 2. That's not exactly a stellar record... Even Robby "the Wrecker" Gordon with 396 starts won 3 races. But one season, I can't remember which, he wrecked almost car he drove, including a "Big One" at Homestead, that resulted in the collection of 25 competitors.


As far as Krispy Kreme goes, I'd rather have Dunkin' Donuts Apple Fritters! More reasonably priced, always taste fresher, and I like their Double Chocolate Donuts too. Any of them go great with coffee. 🍩☕
