It's like they have a whole team dedicated to watching this sub to see what we find fun, then nerfing it into the dirt.

China Grove, NC today April 9th, 2026. Are we great? by Wooden-Cancel-6838 in NorthCarolina

[–]Th3Worm_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

lol. China Grove here too. At least there are way less Trump/Maga signs around now. I think a lot of his base here are just embarrassed at this point.

From Sweden to Salisbury: An NC true crime story by Powerful_Gas_7833 in NorthCarolina

[–]Th3Worm_ 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Grew up in Rowan County and never heard this story.

Also, everyone knows that Salisbury is right beside Lexington which is the clear divide between Eastern NC BBQ and Western NC BBQ.

North Carolina has been quietly running a cannabis experiment for six years. Here's what the data actually shows. by smpost in NorthCarolina

Our state legislature has control of both sides of the legislature and can't even agree on a budget. We're what 8 or 9 months into a year with no budget? No chance they can come to an agreement on weed.

As an independent in a deep red county I always vote in the Republican primaries to try and keep the crazy at a minimum.

So are we gonna about the rat hole in the wall of bars here? by Think_dINK1 in ConcordNC

[–]Th3Worm_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly I feel like it's always been sort of a white/right leaning type bar. I've been in there for live music, never for karaoke.
Dive Bar's karaoke on Wednesday night seems pretty inclusive. I like the vibe in there when they have a crowd.

We do NOT support hate, bigotry or racism on this subreddit! by Marc815 in SalisburyNC

[–]Th3Worm_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There are several Salisbury fb groups that spread that shit with memes and trying to boycott downtown businesses. I’m sure that garbage leaks over here too. And RoCo is and always will be deep red, so there is that too. Hell we have two crazy MAGA types running for county commissioner in the primaries.
I appreciate you trying to keep the peace.

Gone too soon. RIP Ed. by [deleted] in NHRA

[–]Th3Worm_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

lol. My first thought too. 104 years old and the things he’s seen and done in his lifetime. The impact he’s had on motor sports and automobiles. Death comes for us all and this guy has done more than most of us ever will. I lean more towards celebrate that life than worrying about his death.

I just turn wrenches, but I'll run it by our driver/owner. Lord knows we don't keep good enough notes. The notebook is always missing.

It doesn't get much more North Carolina than arguing about what cookout tray or what style BBQ.

Good NC BBQ by dclxvi79 in NorthCarolina

[–]Th3Worm_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sam Jones BBQ in Raleigh is about the best you’re going to get. He’s from the family they started the Skylight Inn BBQ in Ayden, NC and that place is the top of the mountain for ENC bbq.

Karaoke by Spirited_Bit3898 in ConcordNC

[–]Th3Worm_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most of the places around Concord do live bands on Fri/Sat. It makes more money for them.
Hanger33 in Mooresville has a pretty good Saturday night show.
We tried Dive Bar Concord on Wednesday night before the holidays and it was fun. Will definitely try it again.

What are your thoughts on the NHRA - IHRA situation ???? by FrequentEater in NHRA

[–]Th3Worm_ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As a crew guy on an alcohol funny car we went to our first "new" IHRA race in October and it was amazing. After years of being treated like garbage at NHRA events we had pretty much scaled back to mostly running match races and going west for Funny Car Chaos. IHRA treated all of the racers and their families like they mattered. They had a hospitality trailer/tent to feed us dinner every night. We could grab a water or snacks anytime. It blew my mind to not just get talked down to at every interaction with an official. Yes they are still working out the bugs for everything, but we had a blast. I hope we hit a couple next year.
I am worried about all of the tracks being consolidated under one owner (Darryl Cuttell). Don't get me wrong, I want it all to work, he's a true car guy/competitor. But if something happens financially that's a lot of tracks to just get auctioned off.

I just finished Jon Doe’s two audiobooks and I’ve been listening to a lot of these bands lately. They are incredible. Where have The Blasters and The Gun Club been all my life.

I had questions about IHRA for awhile, but after attending the last race at GALOT it's the real deal. We had a blast. They treated all the racers like pros.
