- For 21 years before NASCAR started selling naming rights in 1971, its top stock-car racing championship was known as the Grand National, and the name lingered in public usage long after the series.
- The base Grand National hit 245 horsepower and 355 pound-feet of torque, and the GNX pumped out a mighty 276 horsepower and 360 pound-feet of torque. This netted the GNX a 0-to-60 time of 4.7.
- Although most published books and articles claim the inception of the Grand National was 1839, this 1836 steeplechase at Aintree, which was won by Mr W.Sirdefield's THE DUKE, ridden by Captain Martin Becher, was the first-ever Grand National, destined to become world's greatest steeplechase.
Spa at Grand National Blending modern techniques with the natural elements of Alabama, the Spa at Grand National is a serene oasis tucked beneath lush fauna of Auburn. After a day on the golf course in Opelika, enjoy soothing treatments, massages and salon services.
