No, I hadn't noticed. But that answers the question I had buzzing about the order in which they shot the show. During the "intermissions" the '62 is behind Rutledge untouched. The show has always had some funny continuity to it. It feels like they're forcing you to believe that its a linear progression with the track bits and the studio bits all happening in the order you see it. Anyway, the 62 not being destroyed is great for me, but lousy for 63 enthusiasts.

I went to a taping of the show. We did the segments in the hangar, outside the hangar and the big star small car too. All of the other parts of the show are already filmed by the time the live audience is brought in. We also did not film just one episode. We were in Three different ones. You are right Oliver, it's not linear at all.
