October kicks off with a bang. Rob, Corndog, and Bernie recap Dallas Kibbe's three-day run at Jefferson Speedway: a breakout Friday-night win away from home—perfect choose-cone calls, smart restarts—followed by the rough side of racing on Saturday with hard contact and a heavy hit that likely totaled the Legends car. The best news: Dallas is OK! With the Las Vegas Asphalt Nationals just weeks away, the scramble is on to source a competitive car and make the trip.
Bernie's news (presented by National Parts Depot) covers the industry and the track: Bosch trims auto-parts jobs, modern-car "features" that drive us nuts (blinding DRLs, multipurpose buttons), and Ida Zetterström's jaw-dropper .000 reaction time in Top Fuel versus Tony Stewart. There's also a Route 66 "Pavement Pounder" road trip—think keys-in-hand cruise to SEMA with badges and Semafest perks—plus Rob's cursed-but-fun weekend (bank card fraud, a cranky 944 speedo, and one life-changing smash burger).
Rob tees up an Ask Rick crossover for The MuscleCar Place: Bob Lutz on EV inevitability and Rick Schmidt's response. Then it's a Dukes of Hazzard rewind—"State of the County"—where Daisy's new flame carries fireworks, Boss J.W. Hickman is played by Larry D. Mann (yes, Yukon Cornelius), and an Oak Ridge Boys cameo caps a leaf-strewn car-chase episode (call it 6–7 Corn Dogs). Sponsors: Holley has fall deals; NPD keeps the parts coming. Hit play for the full Dallas timeline, the Vegas plan, and all the laughs we didn't spoil.
