Chicago: Vienna Dogs Rule, symbol: SuperDawg. http://www.superdawg.com/ x1yyz, thanks so much for putting up the link to the Superdawg website! I love it because the woman talks (a little) like I do, bwa ha ha! I was born in and lived in the midwest as a young girl and still have somewhat of a midwestern 'twang', not the distinct 'yinzer' speech that people often associate with Pittsburgh. Both are probably annoying as hell if you didn't grow up there! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlairC45 Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 In the R40 intro video there is a sign with the name of the current city, plus some fun little blurb about the city.
