1998 Texas 350

The 1998 Texas 350 at Texas Motor Speedway is race 3 of all 36 of 1998. It's known that Eugene Carbureski, Dirkson D'agostino and Brush Curber brought french fries from a McDonald's in Dallas and pretty much EVERYONE ate it. It's one of the races of Mark Landis and Dale Sr., part-timers Todd Marcus, Slider Petrolski, Winford Rutherford, Lee Revkins, Mac Icar, Kevin Shiftright, D'agostino, Aiken Axler, Sage Vanderspin and Dale Jr., and rookie Manny Flywheel. Billy Oilchanger won with The King 2nd. Chick Hicks didn't raced after his crash at Las Vegas and didn't returned until the Olympus 500.

## Trivia

1. The french fries bag features this McDonald's logo.
2. Note that Slider Petrolski mentioned he was gonna be rookie in 1998, he was rookie in 2000 instead, but the award was won by Dale Jr., who was part-time in 1998.
3. Dirkson D'agostino is the only part-time racer to bring the french fries to Texas Motor Speedway.

## Transcript

### Pre-Race

Eugene(whispers): Ok so we got the fries.

Brush(whispers): We should keep them in this box smuggled. NO ONE should find out about this surprise!

Dirkson(whispers): Lets keep them behind this pole. That should be good.

Brush: We better go to race now.

Dirkson: Yeah.

### Later at the fries after race is over

Eugene: Hey guys, guess what?

Brush: We got some french fries! We kinda smuggled them to the track and hid them in a box but now ENJOY!

Dirkson: From McDonald's!

Everyone: YAY!

The King: Let's eat!

Roger: But what if they have hot sauce?

Luke: Nah, that won't happen.

(Luke eats the fries)

Luke: OW, OW, HOT, HOTTER THAN THIS STATE OF TEXAS! WHAT A (Serbia Strong) DAY! I AM GONNA (Popeye toot) DIE! HELP ME, KING!

Roger: Be calm, Luke.

Luke: NO, THE KING!

The King: Oh, are you okay?

Luke: YEAH, i am Okay!

Garnet: OH YEAH THIS IS SO TASTY!

Slider: This is the best french fries ever! Thank you so much Brush, Dirkson and Eugene. I'm gonna be rookie this year!

River: Hmm. Now that's food! I did ate fries from McDonald's back when the first one near a speedway opened in Thomasville in 1955, but these get better! Garnet you should really make a rule that suggests one fast food place has to be near all speedways. It could be McDonald's or some other place.

Pinkie: YES! YES! YES! I WANT TO HAVE MORE! GIVE ME 8 TRILLION PACKETS!

Spike: Well yeah, I can't blame you this is so GOOD!

Johnny: Let me try it (he put the hot sauce instead of ketchup). BWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWAAAAAAAAAAA! AHHHHHHHHHHHH! HOTTTTTTTTTT! MARS! MARS! MARS! MARS! TEXAS! PLANET MERCURY! YEAH, TOTALLY HOT HOTTER THAN MERCURY! YEAH! I CAN'T DO THIS!

Ryan: Don't mind Johnny he cannot make the difference between those two. This is good. Bill ate McDonald's very often back then, but this tributes back so many memories when Bill and I went to McDonald's when I was a kid at 4 to when my uncle started racing in 1976 full-time!

Claude: Very good food! It's great Misti! Right?

Misti: It actually is, Claude.

(Everyone is happy at Eugene, Dirkson and Brush who also have the french fries but especially Brush.)

Katherine Curber: I normally would get mad at you if you do this kind of thing, but this was a pleasant surprise honey!

Brush: Aww thank you!

Katherine: No problem.

Slider: Oh boy, Ryan! I hope I turn into rookie this year due to the fries that Eugene, Dirkson and Brush gave me.

Ryan: I hope so! Mark, do you hope for that, too?

Mark: Those were AMAZING! The fries I mean. Well I hope he's rookie this year, or next year, or possibly in two years!

Bill: AWESOME! I have an entire packet to myself! Time to finish it all!

Pinkie: I WANT HUNDRED AND EIGHT PACKETS! NOW NOW NOW NOW NOW NOW NOW!

Mark: Guys we better go! Pinkie's going CRAZY!

(NOTE: Slider was rookie in 2000.)

River: Also the speedway near the first McDonald's was actually the Thomasville Speedway.

Mark: Oh.

Dirkson: Pinkie, guess what? I GOT YOU ONE THOUSAND FRIES FOR YA!

Pinkie: OH YEAH! BARK BARK! SEAL BARK!

(Pinkie eats them)

Pinkie: (Burps)

Eugene: That was disgusting, though it was kinda funny, though.

Pinkie: I WANT MORE!

Mark: MORE!? BUT WHY THE (Triggered) WOULD YOU WANT MORE!?
