Maybe Evan can put these flames on the Sud, and Scott you could put them on Blue thunder.....then we create a new class that is not based on lap times but how "fully sick" the car looks. Grin

Hmmm, not sure about this.  Could look pretty sweet, like the attached pic, or could end up looking s**t.  Any photoshop wizards out there?

The other thing is, I'd have to clean the car first!  Maybe Scott and Evan can clean it for me?

Yep, Ironsides was built for comfort, not speed.

Following lyrics courtesy Spinal Tap.  Quite appropriate, and quite shouldn't be read by impressionable persons.

The bigger the cushion, the sweeter the pushin'
That's what I said
The looser the waistband, the deeper the quicksand
Or so I have read

My baby fits me like a flesh tuxedo
I'd like to sink her with my pink torpedo

Big bottom, big bottom
Talk about bum cakes, my girl's got 'em
Big bottom drive me out of my mind
How could I leave this behind?

I met her on Monday, twas my lucky bun day
You know what I mean
I love her each weekday, each velvety cheek day
You know what I mean

My love gun's loaded and she's in my sights
Big game is waiting there inside her tights, yeah

Big bottom, big bottom
Talk about mud flaps, my girl's got 'em
Big bottom drive me out of my mind
How could I leave this behind?
