You got it Kurt. Send me your address, and I'll send your prize. :D

Since Kurt was the winner, he gets to ask a trivia question. :thumbsup:

Let's hear it, Kurt!

OK, What was Troy's second car he built?

The green Impala.

Oh man, I think you told me this one time Kurt... was that the one he had when you and Troy were showing cars side by side a bunch of years ago?

Yes it was Scott. I believe it was back in 87-88 Super Chevy in Indy if I remember right.

Troy Trivia
 

OK, how's this one...

One of Troy's early cars was featured in a national fast food restaurant commercial. What restaurant, what car, and who was the country singer featured in the spot?

TACO BELL...THE BUICK...."BUMUNGOUS" was i think it was

Race rods, Dude you beat me to it.


Bill, I think the impala was number two but I can't say 100%


I e-mailed my address.


Thanks again

Kurt

Yes, but who was the singer?

Alan Jackson?

The correct answer is T. Graham Brown. Not that anybody cares.

Interesting story on that commercial... when they were shooting the driving shot with the model eating the taco, the Buick's hood left the vehicle and went sailing off into the dusty Palmdale air...

Some crews have no respect...

- KO

country singer? hmmmmmm, not my "thing"

Wow, crazy! I bet Troy was impressed!

LOL!!! I agree, I had to turn on CMT just to come up with a name. :lol:

cmt........wow, dedication.

Shania. :unibrow:

shania, faith, and i know there are a few others....but the names fail me

I'm not into country music myself, but several years ago we were producing a segment on Troy for Hot Rod TV, and I wanted to include that spot in the piece. Taco Bell gave us permission, but they told us we had to get a release from the model and the singer. Apparantly, Mr. T. Graham Brown is a Nashville bigshot, and we couldn't afford to pay the music rights to show the spot.

Some laywers ruin all the fun!

troy is my hero, and i can tollerate counrty music if the chick is hot...

and thats all i have to say about that :D

We need more Troy Trivia. :D

syborg TT has the troy hook up.........im sure he has all kinds of good troy triva ?'s

This isn't Troy trivia, but who was the first top fueler in the fours?

I'm sure Kurt knows this one!

Eddie Hill with a 4.88 in April, 1988

Eddie Hill's right, but I thought it was a 4.93?

You're probably right... too many "88"s in my head.

I googled it, I was wrong too. 4.99

How about some more, guys?

Who was the first top fueler to hit 300mph and where did it happen?

My guess would be Bernstein..dont know when and where.

Bernstein. I had the T-shirt, but don't recall when and where. :(

what was the first....
 

What was the first mention of sex on TV?

Hmmm... the very first show ever made? :lol:

I'm thinking married with children, but it had to have been before that...

Bernstein, Gainsville, 91

When June told Ward Cleaver not be "so hard on the Beaver"... :rofl:

You are TOOOOOO much Jim.

Who broke the 270 MPH mark in Top Fuel and what magazine cover was it on?
