    When a "pro mod" pulling a trailer rips a burnout for the awesome DW fans in Paris, TN . . . .

    (or when the recently-repaired object of an impromptu internet drinking game, infamously known as "Old Blue," spectacularly fails at same)

      Mine didn't even make it to the starting line this year and when I do get it home I'm expecting it to sit for a month in the corner of the barn.

            It worked wonders for mine in 2011.

                    How about when you get home 6am Saturday after driving all night, the wife says lets go for a ride and you think "Oh, not more riding"!

                    The only thing I have done to the car is pulled the window stickers off. It's a real street car without window stickers!

                      Swap out cooling towels every 20 min so you don't spontaneously combust into a giant fireball while cruising down the highway!

                        I'm not pulling my stickers off until somebody makes me . . . .

                        (or until I get so many (like NY I'm-gonna-kick-Speedy's-saggy-old-@$$ Bob) that I can't see out anymore . . . .)

                              As my paint job ages(14 years now) my need for rust covering stickers is on the rise.

                              I think I am just going to get some blue vinyl made up and "patch" the bad areas lol

                                You've still got a ways to go for full coverage . . .

                                (I really wanted to post a photo of that guy who sells license plates at various swap meets who has covered his Suburban completely with thousands of annual renewal stickers, but I couldn't find it . . . it's very colorful and sort of cool in a demented way . . . .)
