Dale Earnhardt, Jr. (born October 10, 1974), better known simply as Dale Earnhardt, Jr., is an American stock car racing driver and team owner, who currently drives the No. 88 Chevrolet Impala in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series for Hendrick Motorsports, and drives the No. 5 Chevrolet Impala for his own team, JR Motorsports, in selected events in the NASCAR Nationwide Series. He is the son of NASCAR Hall of Famer Dale Earnhardt, Sr., and the grandson of both NASCAR driver Ralph Earnhardt and stock car fabricator Robert Gee. Earnhardt, Jr. is also the half-brother of former driver Kerry Earnhardt, the uncle of driver Jeffrey Earnhardt, and the stepson of Earnhardt Ganassi Racing team co-owner Teresa Earnhardt. Earnhardt, Jr. has won the Most Popular Driver Award nine times. He has an estimated net worth of $300 million.
He appeared in the 2006 film Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby. In the movie, he is seen asking Ricky Bobby (Will Ferrell) for his autograph, and tells Ricky "don't tell any of the other drivers." There is also a deleted scene on the DVD where he calls Ricky a "dirty liar" and asks him for money he owed him. The #8 car also appeared in Herbie: Fully Loaded in the final race where Herbie overtook him. His #88 car also appeared in the 2011 film Transformers: Dark of the Moon as Roadbuster of the Wreckers, a trio of NASCAR stock cars equipped with armor on the front that can transform into heavy artillery tanks (the other Wreckers were based on the #42 and #48 cars driven respectively by Juan Pablo Montoya and Jimmie Johnson).[29] The Wrecker versions of these cars circled the track during the opening pace laps of the 2011 Daytona 500 (Josh Duhamel, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and Michael Bay were also the grand marshals for that race, in which Earnhardt crashed on lap 203 after making contact with Ryan Newman). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dale_Earnhardt,_Jr.
Mad Max is a 1979 Australian dystopic action film directed by George Miller and revised by Miller and Byron Kennedy over the original script by James McCausland, starring Mel Gibson, who had not yet become famous. Its narrative based on the traditional western genre, Mad Max tells a story of breakdown of society, love and revenge. It became a top-grossing Australian film and has been credited for further opening up the global market to Australian New Wave films. It was also the first Australian film to be shot with a widescreen anamorphic lens.[2] The first film in the series, Mad Max spawned sequels Mad Max 2 in 1981 and Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome in 1985. A fourth installment, "Mad Max: Fury Road" 2013 starring actor Tom Hardy as Max, is currently in production.
n the Seinfeld episode "The Dealership", George Costanza says of a car dealership, "There's no laws in this place. Anything goes! It's Thunderdome!!"

The Futurama episode "Raging Bender" contains a parody of the "Two men enter, one man leaves" line from Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome. Describing the sport of robot wrestling, Professor Hubert Farnsworth says, "There are no rules. Two robots enter, one robot leaves, then later the other robot leaves after being declared the winner."

In the music video of 2pac's "California Love", elements from this film were used including car chases in the desert and the Thunderdome itself. The director of the video, Hype Williams, was inspired by this film when making "California Love."[8]

In the game World of Warcraft, a woman named Katrina Turner hosts a series of battles at The Thunderdrome, an obvious reference to the film.

In the game Borderlands, many references are made to elements of the Mad Max universe, including Mad Moxxi's Underdome Riot, which features a series of challenges in a Thunderdome setting and an achievement titled, "Can't We Get Beyond Thunderdome?".

In the track from Snoop Dogg, "Gangbanging 101" it is referenced "we just slip and slide out, we rip and ride out Let it see known, nigga welcome to da Thunderdome."

Kimya Dawson references it in her song "The Beer" saying "I was dressed like Tina Turner in Beyond Thunderdome."

The South Park episode "The Wacky Molestation Adventure" references the scene where the pre-apocalyptic world is described to the children.
In the comedy film Liar Liar, Fletcher Reede, played by Jim Carrey, refers to Tina Turner as "...beyond Thunderdome" when speaking to his client Samantha Cole, played Jennifer Tilly.
