This is so cartoonishly racist it's literally the kind of thing I'd expect in a sitcom.

      I'm not racist, but turn #4 at Daytona Speedway is really fucking dangerous if there's a wreck, primarily because it's a blind exit so you can't see if there's a wreck in front of you (or even line of cars slowed down due to a red flag) when you come hurtling out at full throttle.

      Also, I'm not a racist, but the film Days of Thunder is actually less funny than the actual reality -- "Cole Trickle" is loosely based on the name of Wisconsin Rapids native "Dick Trickle," who was a NASCAR mainstay through much of the 80s and 90s.

      Also also, I'm not a racist, but Dick Trickle won the Cracker 200 in 1985.

      Edit: My ex-stepdad was a hardcore racist. Track days and hard-R N-words.
