SimGuruJenn posted a response on [[TheSims3.com]] forum: ~~{{quote\|Hello everyone!~~ There are a number of folks expressing concern about the new ‘sponsor-laden racing jumpsuits’ in ''The Sims 3: Fast Lane Stuff'' pack and I want to clear up any confusion about these clothing items. The sponsors displayed on the jumpsuits are fictitious companies and all the text is written in Simlish. Real ads will not appear on this clothing. The kids' uniforms even have a cute frog logo on them! I’m really excited about the cars, clothing and other cool objects that are in this stuff pack and can’t wait until we can share more with you!\|SimGuruJenn\|[http://forum.thesims3.com/jforum/posts/list/224438.page TheSims3 forum post]}} ==Trivia== * ''Fast Lane Stuff'' was rumored about a month before the official announcement, though the title and theme was only rumored a few days before the official announcement<ref>See [[The Sims game rumors/Archive#The Sims 3: Stuff Pack ~~.232\|The Sims game rumors#The Sims 3: Stuff Pack~~ #2]]</ref> * The Norwegian title of this stuff pack, ''The Sims 3: Full Fart Stæsj'' (which translates to ''The Sims 3: Full Speed Stuff'') would go on to become a popular meme in the Sims community when people jokingly interpreted the word Fart as referring to flatulence instead of speed. ==External links== * [http://www.thesims3.com/game/sp2 The Sims 3 -: Fast Lane Stuff on TheSims3.com] ==References== {{Reflist}} {{S-start}} {{S-series}} {{S-bef\|before=''[[The Sims 3: Ambitions]]''\|release=June 1, 2010}} {{S-ttl\|title=The Sims series PC games}} {{S-aft\|after=''[[The Sims 3: Late Night]]''\|release=October 26, 2010}} {{S-bef\|before=''[[The Sims 3: High-End Loft Stuff]]''\|release=February 2, 2010\|rows=2}} {{S-ttl\|title=''The Sims 3'' stuff packs}} {{S-aft\|after=''[[The Sims 3: Outdoor Living Stuff]]''\|release=February 1, 2011\|rows=2}} {{S-ttl\|title=The Sims series stuff packs}} {{S-end}} {{Sims}} {{DEFAULTSORT:Fast Lane Stuff, The Sims 3:}} [[es:Los Sims 3: ¡Quemando rueda! - Accesorios]] ~~[[es:Los Sims 3: ¡Quemando rueda!]]~~ [[fr:Les Sims 3: Vitesse Ultime!]] [[it:The Sims 3 Fast Lane Stuff]] [[ru:The Sims 3: Скоростной режим]] ~~[[Category:Fast Lane Stuff\| Fast Lane Stuff, The Sims 3:]]~~ [[nl:De Sims 3: Supersnelle Accessoires]] ~~[[Category:Stuff packs]]~~ [[~~Category~~pt-br:The Sims 3: Acelerando]] [[pl:The Sims 3: Szybka jazda Akcesoria]] ~~[[Category:Games]]~~ [[Category:Fast Lane Stuff\| ]] [[Category:Stuff packs\|Fast Lane Stuff, The Sims 3]] [[Category:The Sims 3\|Fast Lane Stuff]] [[Category:Games\|Fast Lane Stuff, The Sims 3]]
