Is there a car in that picture?
OK. Now I see it. I was distracted by the subject in the foreground. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) Are those 'Bunny Ears' on the helmet? |

Did they coat the mounting surfaces, or were those taped off?

Yes...those are the infamous bunny ears.....hold your tongue in ....that little girl is 14. If "I" was her father, she would not be allowed out of the house.....
The ears were attached for a race in AZ. During the Easter holidays....made quite a hit.....all the girls kept coming over and wanting to touch my helmet..... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) |

The buck teeth really help complete the look.
Now please answer Rusty's question about powder coating the mounting surfaces of the wheels. I'm curious if the coating can hold up to multiple tire mounts or if they mask it off and don't even try. |

Prolly the only place where you can have a duatholon, shoot'n and AX'n at the same time. :cursor: Plus 2 seconds per cone run over, minus 5 seconds per cone shot. |

A couple years ago I got black flagged at a POC race here in Vegas. I was pouring gas all over the track. Traced the leak to a little plug that had fallen out of the carbs. An oldtimer told me he had the same problem in the past and had fixed it by putting the tip of a .22 bullet in the hole. We asked around. Found lots of guys with 9mm's, a few 357's, 38's and 45's. The smallest anybody had was a .380. Did finally fix the leak with the little cap off a new spark plug.
Moral of the story: A race tack is a very safe/dangerous place to be. |
