HUNTSVILLE, Ala. — "If you ain't first, you're last." The famous words uttered in the movie "Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby" are so common that you may not remember where they came from. The 2006 film starring Will Ferrell, John C. Reilly, and Sacha Baron Cohen was both a box office and cultural hit, with the NASCAR-inspired film still being referenced in the sport. 

Now, a piece of NASCAR inspired by Talladega Nights is coming to Huntsville!

The Wonder Bread car, inspired by the car driven by Ferrell's Ricky Bobby in the film, is going to be making two stops this weekend at local Kroger grocery stores. 

The Kroger on Highway 72 in Madison, by Texas Roadhouse, is the first stop. The car will be on display from 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. on Saturday. 

On Sunday, the store located on Oakwood Avenue in Huntsville will have the Wonder Bread car out from 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. 

You will be able to take pictures and learn more about the upcoming NASCAR events happening at the Talladega Superspeedway.

Talladega Superspeedway will be playing host to three races soon once again, with their fall races coming to the race track; all of NASCAR's mainstream races heading down to the Talladega area. 

The NASCAR Truck, Xfinity, and Cup series will be spread out over October 4th to the 6th, with the Trucks race happening on the 4th at 3:30 p.m., Xfinity on the 5th at 3 p.m., and the Cup on the 6th at 1 p.m. All three races will be a part of the NASCAR playoffs.
