I got this idea from Monster House. They have this countdown clock that they hang on the wall to motivate the contestants. I decided I needed motivation for myself to get my 914 done. Turns out the one they use on Monster House is $200 and up.. way too much for a clock (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) So I bought this one on ebay for $2. It's actually a "how long to your baby" clock (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) I made a new face for it, and now it's ready for the garage.

Good idea and clever graphics!

Does this mean it'll take nine months to get the car done?

You only need to know the last few days before the event so you can scramble to get the car running (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)
Nice job, you watch too much monster house!

It would be cool to put a countdown on the top of the web page...

I know there is a java routine somewhere that I've seen that does that...

Regards,

Karl

I think you could definitely make and sell those on the club site. I'd pay more than $2 for one...

I think you need to put it up in your garage and put a 24/7 web cam on it so the rest of us can be motivated! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

That's awesome, good idea! Maybe this will help kick other people into gear as well.

It's Brad Anders' car, from his driving light install page.
