I'm planning on entering my car too. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cheer.gif)

T.C., you're co-driving. But I'm starting the race in case we don't last long. (Typical car owner trick) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)

Not sure your car will make the minimum weight Paul. But you almost assuredly will be the only carbed car in the race.

That's a good idea though. Isn't that what Seth Neiman does? He always starts it so that if when he wads it up, he at least got some seat time. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/poke.gif)

I wish they would give us a hint as to what the new car is going to look like.

George, you can be the third driver. But doubt if you'll get to drive after TC and I trash it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/first.gif)

I'm Very Good at preserving a Car!

Now when I was a Test-Driver for Volkswagon-Audi, that was another thing. I was called the Bug-Killer for Good Reason, I thrashed those Mo-Fos!

I'm not sure what my reputation is. With the Chumpcar Mustang last year, I destroyed a set of rotors at Palm Beach Internation during the DE (I told them they needed to vent them first, but they didn't listen) and I effectively knocked the computer in the car off its mounts (they had it duct taped into place when we started the race). If I were in a properly engineered car, like Pauls, I'm not sure what the result would be. It would be nice to flog one though that is setup right! Guess that's why John and I are building our own.

I have a sneaking suspicion that move was made to provide some "entertainment" when Paul and T.C. trash the car. In which case, I cannot compete.

As the car owner I'm only hiring Danica to bring in sponser money, not to drive.

That's how it works right?
