You laugh at the Pirate picture. What you don't realize is that my hair is now long like ala Gorski so I can whip it back and forth during my stint just like he does. No headband for me!

Ways to protect your team:

If the oiler someone lends you is red colored you might want to think Loctite.

You might want to reconsider drinking that free coffee from Dunkin Donuts when Jay says gee... all they had was Mocha today. Think Ex-Lax

When one of the Iles twins are in please continue your discussion about how hot the current issue of Playboy is this month. Actually you can try that with any of the guys on the other teams, too.

Please continue discussing with Roger the merits of why it is gravy and not sauce.

Of course you will not be allowed to take that spray can of Icy Hot into the men's room. If by chance you do other racers should beware or you may get the real hot seat.

More to follow...

Comment as you see fit. ;)

Awww, how '80s! Noose, have you even LOOKED online recently? Edit that shout-out to: "Hey Preston, I saw that webcam clip you & your girlfriend uploaded to SlutBlog.nl the other day and it's not only Killer Hot, it's got 19,390 "Likes" already!!"

In Memory of Jim Dameral's Elmsford 12 hour Enduro antics like running real car high beam elements and lighting up the whole race way.

Someone must at the 3 hour mark yell out at the top of their lungs, "I don't have it". of course this will be more effective if followed by a wall shaking crashing noise.

Also when anyone walls their car you must yell out "Kallio Fix It!". Not sure these will mean anything to anyone else but it will keep me amused. Rob Kurylo will get the first one and any one who pro raced with Jim will get the second.

Thank you for the reminder, Tony. I wasn't there for the Enduros at Elmsford but I do remember Jim at various Group 7 races.

Remember the time Jim walked up to qualify, complained the track didn't have enough power, then hooked up a car battery at the control panel? Remember the look on Lou D's face? :shok:

I was looking more to super gluing somebody to the toilet seat in both restrooms and the hot dogs I'm providing will be EXLAX impregnated... so beware... :shok:

There is no qualifying. :laugh2:

Now a reminder:

One set of tires provided by raceway – rest to be obtained from raceway. Must start race with tires issued. JK8763PTs will be issued. All other JK treated tires (all hub sizes) may be purchased for later use.

And finally, still wondering what the frames look like? Keep wondering for awhile more. Heh heh

Heh, heh... For those of you who can't wait, an early pic... GOOD LUCK! :laugh2:

Glad I'm not the only one who thought that's what they looked like....:laugh2:

Yeah, get Mike Tango to be the race director. Now THAT would be RETRO! (and probably a lot of fun)

And a few Nutley geeks will be in the race as well...

Do we have to cut the chassis apart ourselves or are they perforated so we can
just bend them back and forth a few times and they'll break apart?

Can we leave the chassis like they are and get together with 3 other teams and
race 4 wide for the first 3 hours?

Can Jay narrow the lane spacing so the 4 cars fit in the slots?

Will there be a super-wide jig at the race to fix the frame(s)?

Very nice of Mike to do that, but I don't think each team will be using only 1 controller. Don't think we are going to take the time to switch it between racers...

Did he also send some to sell??

That you will have to ask Jay. Each team gets one if they decide to use it then it's up to them. At the end, it will be in the team raffle just like the frame, motor and body. For example, on your team you are number 4. If when I get to your team at the BBQ I pull number 4 out of the hat first, you get the frame. If you are the second one, you get the motor. Third you get the controller buddy. Last you get the body and whatever else the crew chief hands you from the car.

It is more like,

You wind up in my lane. You scream out "Hold Blue!" I turn to face you as I splatter your car all over the deadman wall and say "Chips".
