      I feel like the producers or writers were probably Dodger fans. I’ve seen some other references to the Dodgers throughout the series. Even Michael Knight wore an LA hat a couple of times in the second season lol.

    My dad used to race at Saugus Speedway and I used to do the street car "Ego Challenge" (run solo laps for time) when I was old enough. Once when I was there for the Ego Challenge and sitting in the "pit stands", David Hasselhoff was sitting near us, wearing a driving suit. I'm not sure what he was driving that night, maybe he was actually racing.
    They did, in fact, eventually condemn the grandstands a decade or so back and that shut down the racing. The pits became a commuter train station and the track hosts weekly swap meets. It's been in the news recently as it looks like the land is going to be developed.

    The road with thr palm trees remind me of the Beverly Hills cop film, when Brigitte Nielsen faked car trouble in order to make the police captain stop en pull over so she could shoot him.
    I might be totally off.

    The Saugus Speedway has been just sitting there for years, the eventually tore down the stands and just left the Concrete track where yhe used to hold swap meets... I think it's currently scheduled to be bulldozed and redeveloped. I live about 10 minutes from it. It was also used in the Herbie Movie

    One thing that going back and re-watching shows like Knight Rider and Dukes over again has shown me is that, like the meme about quicksand, these shows gave preteen me an unrealistic expectation of how big stunt shows would be in life. 😂 I know and remember Evel Knievel being huge around that time, but these shows made it seem to me like stunt shows were all over the place, like circuses, rodeos, or pro wrestling. I was almost an adult before I realized how much of a fad and of the times these sorts of episodes really were. The monster truck rallies of the day?
