What do you see in this picture? A plain white mug with the letters UNT on it? Then you probably haven’t spent much time on the internet. If you were ruined just like us, you would clearly see: ****.
The University of North Texas really messed up here. Whoever designed these mugs obviously didn’t think everything through. Or did they…? Well, either way, it ended up on sale on UNT’s official Barnes and Noble store and now people can’t stop laughing at it.

Can anyone identify this building? I think it is in California but it could be in Texas maybe? At first I thought it was the alamo but after looking at old photos, I don't think that is it. The photo was taken in 1913

Doesn't look like that now, or originally.

That is in disrepair with the old bell tower gone then.

Yup, another Father Serra creation.....one of the first.

I have a full sized poster of those two cars, signed by both Dave and Scooter.
I worked the Toyota booth at the Monterrey historics a couple years ago and both those cars were on display in my booth, and both drivers were there for autographs.
Great guys.
We talked about racing in the old days, those stories almost brought a tears to my eyes. That's back when racing was really racing.
Back when they raced anything with wheels and every turn could be your last, parts falling off the cars, shifters that only down shifted if you triple-clutched and blipped the throttle twice, etc.

I never asked for an autograph or anything but at the end of the day Scooter walked over and handed me the poster that they had signed for me. cool.

Dave has a place in big bear or arrowhead, can't remember but he gave me his card with the address and invited me up there to help him work on a 914 project he had started. I never got around to it but i still might.
Some day I hope to get Carroll Shelby to sign the poster too but time is running out on that one.

Carroll has left us. last I heard Scooter was very ill, I hope he and Davy are doing well.
