I didn't get a chance to watch the whole thing this past week... The Shield was on. Sorry JWallace. I did get to see your smirk though when the Lambo boys got the well deserved boot!

Way to represent. Any spoilers for us? Contractual obligations prolly prohibit that kinda thing... huh?!

That's something, anyway. I winced everytime I saw damage to the Lambo. The guy beat on it pretty hard though. The raccoon was rough.

You know, the way the guy responded whenever Goldberg asked him how the clutch was holding on I REALLY got the feeling the guy was lying completely. I think he acted like it was acting up, or at least exaggerated it to make people not gun for him.

Well if that's the case, that sure backfired eh? He was picked in every challange BECAUSE he said his clutch was bad. I would have picked him for every challenge too. Saying there was a problem with the clutch was a stupid thing to do, but after watching them for a while they don't seem to be that bright anyways. Glad they're gone.
I think he burned out after he got eliminated because he knew he had to replace the clutch anyways. Might as well have some fun since he's not in the race anymore.

Nope, those were real bricks with real mortar. Granted it's not SOLID concrete, they look to be featherlight bricks, the ones with the big holes in them. They probably wouldn't have done much damage if the wall had been hit at a low speed. But my highly calibrated Mk I eyeball, ya'll know every cop is issued one in the academy, right?, would estimate Wally's speed right around say a buck, maybe a buck twenty?

Wallace hasn't divulged privilged info. but I've seen the as yet to be repaired damage to his truck even though it's mostly "fixed" for now. It also REALLY doesn't take a genius to guesstimate his speed when you take into account the explosive effect his truck has on the "wall." Of course I've been in around 15 wrecks myself and have 25 years in fire/EMS & 13 LEO so I've seen a couple of wrecks and the ensuing carnage. But again, I'm just guessing...

You go Billy boy! The truck was def hurting. I have recently put some $$$$ into it. Face lift, new shoes, new voice box "serious stereo," tan, some steroids. I am begining to travel to show her off for ford. Going to Indiana at the end of the month with her for some promotional stuff for the greatest motor company alive.

If you go puttin' a huffer on that engine I'm gonna be mighty jealous!!! I don't wanna hear no supercharger whine when you come roaring up to the station!

I want to hear BIG NEWS after the Indiana portion of the promo trip!! Or at least that BIG NEWS could/might be brewing!! Somebody's gotta keep Wally on TV after Bullrun!


e.t.a.

Move over generic commercial actor dude, Wally's coming!!
