Hahaha Hot Rod Blog - Drag Week

[JeffMcKC]

Although Drag Week's* "Knights Templar" and the BS spelling monitor have defamed,cyber-bullied**, and "banned" me from further posts to this thread, I thought it helpful to quote EXACTLY what HRM wrote on pg. 32 of the July 2012 issue:



Maybe it's just me, but that doesn't sound like anything other than an invitation to join the waiting list and a shameless plug for Hot Rod's website.

Alonzo in his Ferrari just took the lead at the Spanish Grand Prix with a brilliant pass . . . .

**Had this occurred in the "real" world, there might have been some most unpleasant consequences.

So will that be your new excuse for not going is "Maybe it's just me, but that doesn't sound like anything other than an invitation to join the waiting list and a shameless plug for Hot Rod's website" I am sure they would let your Factory ride in LMAO what will you cry about next

I'm not sure who it is that those posting to this thread are characterizing as "cubicle racers" or what ever , but before you throw out those aspersions please compare your documented accomplishments to theirs first: then decide who really is the cubicle racer.

I fixed a weedeater, changed a lawnmower engine, mowed, and then fixed the generator one day last week (camping is fun) but now I have to go back to the cubicle.

I did lighten up my cubicle though - by 1997 it took 72 moving boxes to move my junk. Now, it fits in one box! Makes it easier for HR and the admins that way. I keep the personal items down to 5 things on one shelf. I can grab them when they give the badge party invitation. Then, I can become a full time Keyboard racer!

Of the newly minted vaporware 50 spots that might open up, I sure hope somebody didn't already get tree'd there as well.

"Cubicle racers" are the low-level staffers that maintain Hotrod.com for DF and the suits. Most certainly they have a huge resume of motorsports accomplishments. Sorry, that the joke apparently missed its mark.

BTW, I have an office, not a cubicle.

Me too, it used to be called the "Guest Bedroom"

My "Office" has a toilet in it. You have to get a lobotomy to get an office at work.

I thought you were going to say guest bathroom! I do some of my best thinking in there.

On a side note, I think with the new motor and tranny, the Lightning might be competitive in DD next year.
