What about those "salad shooter" cars Brian Paulus used to bring to Knoxville?
Was always in the mood for a fruit salad everytime I saw that thing.
Always liked the Hillenburg STP #2. Even though he face planted the thing in hotlaps before A Main on Saturday.
Is this heaven?
No, it's Iowa....Knoxville, Iowa.

GMP was supposed to do a die-cast of this car back then. Brian told me that they couldn't get all the contracts signed to be able to do it. Too bad, would have been a nice one.
Now, how about the Jeff Swindell 104 Octane car, or the flame painted 7tw?

Steve Smith Black Bandit #19, Bobby Allen #1a, Fetter Ford #77, Moeller Bros. #18, Jensen Construction #55, Gambler House Car #18, Sammy's TMC #1 just to add a few more to the list.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't the Jensen Construction 55 and current Vermeer 55 the same owner/car/team? If so a sweet retro paint scheme for next year would be nice...loved the orange and yellow.
Lance Blevins Citgo 21. The 2D that Dollansky drove many years ago to his first podium finish, The black 7x driven by Rocky Hodges and other for years at Knoxville, the Cahill cars #7 and #5, any Bob Trostle #20, their was a yellow and blue silver winged #40 driven by Doty one year and Jeff Gordon another, their was the #48 car that was white one year driven by Jac Haudenschild that was involved in the massive turn 1 crash when Marlon Jones went through the wall. I believe the next year it was black and gold sponsored by Miller Genuine Draft. Chris Eshe always towed out his bright yellow 17e. Tim Green in an orange 14 from Cali. Aaron Berryhill #97. Jeff Swindell in the 104 car.
In general it seemed like a lot more big names towed from PA and CA back then but I was too young to remember most. Maybe there just were more big names then also.

Those #48 cars were owned by Allan Nott out of Lima, Ohio. The black and gold one you speak of was sponsored by Coors Extra Gold not MGD. Although I think they lost that Coors sponsorship over product loyalty if I rememeber right. Something along those lines, I rememeber reading in NSSNews about a post race incident in Minnesota I think. Anyhow, that was the end of the sponsorship, or the end of Jac in that ride. I don't recall which.

Forgot one, Number 22 Tommy Johnson, I think. Weird wings, the car was sort of fast from what I remember. Numerous strange pieces on this one. Was the guy from Texas?
