This is the continuation too:

This is so cartoonishly racist it's literally the kind of thing I'd expect in a sitcom.

Every damn time "I'm not racist but..." is code for "I'm very racist and..."

I'm not racist, but most racist thing you've heard in multiple years

I'm not racist, but turn #4 at Daytona Speedway is really fucking dangerous if there's a wreck, primarily because it's a blind exit so you can't see if there's a wreck in front of you (or even line of cars slowed down due to a red flag) when you come hurtling out at full throttle.

Also, I'm not a racist, but the film Days of Thunder is actually less funny than the actual reality -- "Cole Trickle" is loosely based on the name of Wisconsin Rapids native "Dick Trickle," who was a NASCAR mainstay through much of the 80s and 90s.

Also also, I'm not a racist, but Dick Trickle won the Cracker 200 in 1985.

Edit: My ex-stepdad was a hardcore racist. Track days and hard-R N-words.
