Technical technology of the day [film from early stock car preparation]

i won't make believe i understand everything which is being discussed, but i really enjoyed this video:

 

Great video.

 

great video but this old yankee barely understood a word said.

 

yeah; even Closed Captions isn't too helpful.

i guess it's more of an intuitive audio.

 

Having moved from Michigan (where everybody talks faster than this Oklahoma boy can hear) to Tennessee (where I thought I wouldn't have any trouble talking with and understanding the slow speaking Southerners. Boy, was I wrong, most of them talk at least 100 MPH. I find that I can't understand a thing most of them say, especially those with toothpicks or chaw in their mouths.

 

Love it,,I had no prob understanding,,u yanks need to learn to talk,,

 

Someone from Massachusetts complaining about not being able to understand someone?

Don’t you guys say things like “Wicked Pissah”

 

That Stapleton 42 guy is plugged in with a bunch of the old Nascar Racers, not surprised that video showed up here, great collection old race car history.

 

The funny thing is that while moonshining was a part of the early stock car days it was not as big as many people would have you believe.

They were racing stock car here in the Northeast right after the war, I won't say there wasn't any illegal alcohol made in this part of the county, but it definitely wasn't huge.
