The Argyle Sweater by Scott Hilburn for May 22, 2014

I don’t see a big S on any of them.

Where are the ads?

Mollusc rivalries can be so petty.

Do they get disqualified for slime-streaming?

No crashes, whatsoever.

They have tailgate parties after the races if there is a wreck.

Look at that S car go!

And if you thought it was torture watching cars take left turns for three hours in regular NASCAR…..

Must be at the Daytona 400 Inches.

And are those the new carbon fiber shells?

(I remember when Julia Child was banned from the track.)

Sponsored by Shell Corporation.

Former drivers include Snail Yarborough.

And the winner is edible especially in garlic.

This is funny…..I got to go to Indy to the 1960 Indy 500. My dad won as salesman for Firestone tires so he got to attend the race. I was 8 years old. They do 231 mph now…..the top speed back then was 146 mph track record. Average was about 139 mph. It would take them it seemed forever to make one lap. 150 mph sustained was thought to be unbreakable.

Nice. Same gag I used in the Fins caption contest for a racing fish comic – NASCARP. ;-)

Turbo!

Love it.
