The Tri-Five Nationals, at Beech Bend Raceway Park in Bowling Green Kentucky, is a huge show and race that has been going on for many years. I was planning to go this year, but had a race that popped up that kept me away. From what my friends said, this year was epic, with a huge crowd and awesome rides. Thankfully there are tons of photos and videos from this year’s event and that’s how I found this cool drag racing video from the show. Big thanks to.

The Ford Mustang needs no introduction, and in 2024, it is somewhat in a class of its own. It returned for 2024 with its V8 engine intact and even better than before, refusing to follow the Chevy Camaro and Dodge Challenger to the grave. Ford already gave us the Shelby Mustang GT500, it unveiled the GT3 race car and even gave the world the Mustang Dark Horse.

Dana Petty is selling her beloved 1965 Ford Mustang, gifted by her husband, Tom Petty, in 2002. It was “an incredible surprise” when the legendary musician initially presented it because, as she describes it to Best Classic Bands in this exclusive August 2024 interview, “Tommy and I had a special pact where we were declared ‘gift-exempt.’ This unspoken agreement meant that our gift to each other was simply the absence of physical gifts. ‘The greatest gift of all,’ as he would playfully proclaim.”

The police tend to favour new cars, because they’re reliable and able to keep up with the vast majority of other modern vehicles. Despite all that, though, a county in Michigan has just got hold of a classic Chevrolet Camaro that it’s turned into a police cruiser. This isn’t just some publicity stunt, either – the car’s set to be put to work as a patrol vehicle, alongside the likes of modern-day Dodge Chargers and Ford Explorers.

Debuting in 1964 as a performance upgrade for the Pontiac Le Mans, the GTO quickly became a legend. This muscle car, born from Pontiac’s clever work-around of a General Motors performance restriction, ignited a craze that would grip the American car market for years. Initially offered as an option package, the GTO’s immense popularity led Pontiac to raise it to a standalone model by 1966.

Dorothy Dandridge was one of Hollywood’s first Black sex symbols and the first black actress to be nominated for an Academy Award for Best Actress. Around 1930, Dandridge relocated to Los Angeles, California, with her family. A few years later she found success with her new musical group, the Dandridge Sisters, which included sister Vivian and their friend Etta Jones. The group landed gigs at the famous Cotton Club in Harlem and performed with top acts such as the Jimmie Lunceford Orchestra and Cab Calloway. As an African American singer, Dandridge confronted early on the segregation and racism of the entertainment industry. She may have been allowed on stage, but in some venues, she couldn't eat in the restaurant or use certain facilities because of the color of her skin."

Beautiful and deadly are two words you don’t typically use to describe shrimp, but the mantis shrimp is definitely in a class of its own; earning a reputation as the ‘savage boxer of the sea’ and one of the most fearsome creatures in the ocean. And, they're right at home here in South Carolina.

No, pallet shelters for people experiencing homelessness don’t fold into caskets. It’s a question a reader posed one of the first times I wrote about pallet shelters. I find the pallet shelters to be more palatable than ice fishing tents. The Colorado Village Collaborative operates both micro-communities and the so-called Safe Outdoor Spaces with the tents. We all learned the tents are not safe when a fire roared through a CVC Safe Outdoor Space, destroying the compound quickly. Officials never disclosed a cause of the fire.
