Before the Audi Quattro.  Before the…err…80’s. Before the advent of shaving moustaches.  Before the banning of orange and brown vans.  THERE WAS  THIS FOTO! 1979, german style! AUDI 80 rally car and associated weird Audi Van.

From the days when NASCAR had soul……

1971, to be more specific.  Isn’t it amazing how far NASCAR has fallen? I can’t even bear to watch it anymore….full of country music, cowboy hats, media, music videos, cheesy collage videos—–the horror of it all.  I grew up watching NASCAR on those weird lonely saturday afternoons in the early-mid 80s, I remember rooting for Richard Petty, because he had the coolest looking car, a blue and red #43 Pontiac Grand Prix! fantastic.

Maybe one day NASCAR will come back to being cool again, maybe when carmakers don’t just tack on those cheesy ‘shells’ of production cars on top of em…maybe when it gets it soul back….if it ever does.
