Tuned in the tv show Hart of Dixie Monday night on the CW network (which I probably shouldn't admit I have been watching since its debut) and got a surprise a minute or two into the show. There stood NASCAR driver Brian Vickers in the middle of a scene. The plot twist had one of the characters inviting Brian as a star NASCAR driver to the fictional BlueBell, Alabama where the show is set to judge a charity turtle race. Brian had agreed, but was now reneging on his promise due to another committment that had popped up. Definitely didn't have the "wow" factor of Cale Yarborough's long ago Dukes of Hazzard appearance as himself at the local weekly track. Maybe this Brian deal was dreamed up by NASCAR's new director of band-aid marketing.
