914World.com _ 914World Garage _ PICK THE BRICK - the final selection

Posted by: VegasRacer Oct 11 2004, 02:02 AM

These are the final two choices for The BRICK we will use at Laguna Seca.
Vote for your favorite to represent our club.
The only difference is the spacing in 'PORSCHE'.

This poem was added as an edit to an exising post by SLITS.

I wanted to make sure that everyone got to enjoy it.
You might have missed it if you only went to the most recent post.
Even if you saw it I thought it was worth repeating.

QUOTE
Brick by brick, we're gonna build a stairway,
A path to racer's heaven so far away,
A place called the corkscrew,
Drivers a plenty it has screwed.

From the flying Can Am cars of long ago,
To the Grand Prix bikes, a wonderful show,
The memories all contained in these turns,
Of all the pilots this track has burned.

914world.com, it's members are fanatics,
Bricks we can lay to fill in small cracks,
And from this brick fans can read our face,
That we were here and care about this place.

So don't be afraid, come on and pony up,
We need to fill this empty space up,
Dig in your wallets and let the green flow,
So we can buy four for jack stands ya know.

And Levi, poor Levi, his young girls well known,
Your avatar on the brick, can't be shown,
So put down the camera, mouse and let loose some cash,
Or you will be subect to everyone's wrathful bash.

I placed my vote and am sending the money to Scott now.

What happened to that idea of doing the four bricks and having them say "place jack stand here" ?

Yup, I can see the images you posted now biggrin.gif Thanks!

One minor nit though...

If we cared about using proper grammar, we would change "Mid-Engined" to "Mid-Engine". It's an adjective, not a verb.

I'm sure some of you DO engine here and engine there, but I prefer to Porsche lol2.gif

No, I'm not a teacher, but I do get paid for writing. wink.gif

If everyone picks it up a bit, we can buy two bricks - one to lay - one to smoke.gif

I'm still busy patting myself on the back for being able to spell 'ENTHUSIASTS' correctly. Thanks for the correction Gwen. I don't see any reason not to use proper grammar. Consider it changed in the final version.

I think I like that the most.


Is it too late to add: "We Love the Twisty's" or "Cornering at Speed"

I'm kinda kidding by the way. wink.gif

Jeroen - Which one do you think is better?
You are the graphic design expert 'round here.

Or maybe we should let Joe Sharp decide since he is the largest contributor.

If we get a big brick can we put all the contributors names on it? rolleyes.gif

Maybe that will step up some donations? confused24.gif

We should put the screen names of the contributors......that would make people blink, think, question, or do whatever.
