      Don't say "sammich" too loud or you'll get Jake all excited....
      It's really no different than trying to glue them back on after she has her way.

                  I have a nauseating feeling that might have already happened in the other thread . . . .

                    Not to fuel the "family feud" from Bob's trolling DD t-shirt thread, but that's potentially imbedded in several of the vote options (invitational, smaller field, minimum E.T. . . .)

                    And Forum Freak polls can only have ten choices (What we need is a poll "mule" "in the family" that can tote all the options that won't fit in this poll . . . .)

                    Actually the real reason I left it off is that some trespasser spread "manaze" all over the keyboard . . . .)

                        How would you enforce that rule? Why is a "mildly modified late model car" (whatever that is) any worse than a fiberglass antique replica car with a crate engine? Why should a guy with a stock muscle car be excluded?

                          I'm not concerned with adding or enforcing new rules like you. I just go to have a great time with some great people and to test my abilities of building a car, motor and driveline combination by driving it 3,000- 4,000 miles round trip for DW.

                          I don't find it necessary to draw attention to myself/car by covering it with CLOWN stickers.

                            I'm not really seeing the resemblance . . . . Are you suggesting that any lettered car is a "clown car?"
