The Schaefer Hall of Fame Goes Big Time

Well, since Dave Fulton has been posting a lot of archival footage I suppose I need to post about some contemporary footage. Late last week, I got a message on a Petty board that the Schaefer Hall of Fame may have been spotted on a FOX Sports South showed called Spotlight . After hearing from a couple of others, the wondering turned out to be true. The show is a preview of the upcoming Bank of America 500 at Charlotte.

The NASCAR Media Group filmed some footage of us during the 2012 Coke 600 weekend. We had a good time with the film crew but wondered if it would ever see the light of day.

I've been gone all week and still haven't seen it. But a few screen captures have already been sent my way. I'm not sure yet what all they included - but I was told "some guy" in a yellow Schaefer shirt said he was from Nashville.

I checked TV listings, and here are some upcoming dates/times for a re-run of the show.

10/04 6:00 PM ET
10/07 6:00 PM ET
10/11 6:00 PM ET
10/12 9:30 AM ET
Set those DVRs - and please, be kind with your critique.

Now, Chase will truly be infamous! Do we need to cover the eyes and ears of the women and children, or is NASCAR Media Group capturing only G rated stuff these days?!

Chase, I am assuming, and only assuming, that is you in the #43 hat? Great post. I hope to catch the show but what network is carrying it?

What a change! It's been awhile since I've checked in and I'm quite surprised. It may take me awhile to figure it our but first look it's really great.

Oh I kept it clean. But in keeping with a tradition of passionate but responsible Schaefering, one must be well north of age 21 to participate with us.

The guy in the 43 hat is RR member Ron Willard. He is also known in some www circles as GaPettyFan. In the Schaefer Hall of Fame, he is known as "Bruton" because of his resemblance to the CEO of SMI.

The video unveil! I excerpted our portion as best I could from the 30 minute episode. I'm still researching how I can lift the whole show from my DVR in high quality.

Really cool. Can I drop your name over at BOA for an interest rate reduction?!
