Days of Thunder Trivia Questions
1. Who was the big name official who said "If you wanna turn yourselves into a greasy spot on a country road somewheres go right ahead"?

From Quiz "Days Of Thunder" Quotes - Part II

Answer: Big John

After Dr. Lewicki was done giving her report, she was asked to leave the room. One of the officials said, "OK, It's Big John's turn." Big John turned around in his swivel chair, paused and said "If you wanna turn yourselves into a greasy spot on a country road somewheres, be my guest. But you two monkeys are not going to do it on my race track." Now that he had Cole and Rowdy's attention, he talked about how a Japanese inspection worked. He told the guys "You trade paint one more time or you do so much as touch, I'm going to tear apart your race car for 300 laps. Then, if you pass inspection and you get your car back together, I might let you get back in the race." The guys were quiet and submissive like a couple of kids getting a scolding. Big John then said that they would be going out to dinner and that Cole and Rowdy would be driving together. He tossed them the keys to a rental car.
