As they came across the line, Bostrom was pushed wide and into the grass. He wobbled out of control for a few seconds, then crashed at a high speed. Flying RC45 parts everywhere.

If I'm not mistaken (probably), Ben's hair was long all around, it's just up under that dorky hat.

Re: Ben Bostrom had a mullet!?

Oh come on everyone. The mullet was the pinnacle hairdo of the 80's and seeing how both the brothers were such Dukes of Hazard fans it does not seem that far fetched.

Kinda looks like a mullet to me.
EDIT- Bad link
