Two days and counting. Don't you hate posts that are a cheap attempt to conceal a "bump"!

Now, who's got the pachanga's to go a couple of rounds with the big boys?

Since I cannot race, perhaps they'll let me throw the flags (honorary Grand Marshal?)

UPS says they will deliver today - so Paragon give aways will be there!

Here's how I think the "divi" up will go...

First choice - The one who drives the greatest distance to attend.
Second choice - The 924/944/968 at the event with the most miles.
Third choice - Fast Time of the Day.
Fourth choice - Race winner.
Fifth choice - Red 951 from Katy (whoops - now how did that get in there? )

There are MORE give-a-ways to give! But ya gotta be there! We can have a drawing for the rest or come up with a suggestion of your own. Let's keep it to one give-a-way per person so we can spread the joy!

Dang George, you were one of the "Big Boys" I was refern' too! But that's ok, I'm one of those XL guys myself!

How about a "weight-adjusted FTD"?

I figure at 275# I need about a 10 sec headstart

How about an award for person with the "non-porsche german car manufactured during the 944-series production period with the highest top speed"???? Ok, I guess thats a stetch. (I'll bring my 153 mph '91 750il)

I'll be there if I get a pass from the wife. I may have to tell her its something not car related to be able to sneak out (the penalty box thing still applies, unfortunately)

Sneak out!?! No way, just bring the misses and she can race too! Joyce will be there (doubles chances of taking home cool door prize ).

Obviously we'll need a Heavy Weight Class - looks like George, you, and I will be testing out the springs (or lack thereof)!

You don't know how badly I want to race.

I've even thought about trying to sneak my helmet out of the house, but the consequences of racing (even the vibrations of the kart) could be drastic.
