Well, someone already had wwgrd.com, but I'm now the proud new owner of wwgrd.org. If I ever have a lazy Saturday afternoon, I'll have to throw something together.

Ha...ghettoracer.com is no longer up and running. Perhaps someone finally shut his website down for all of the copyright and trademark infringements. I know I submitted his website to the lawyers at Warner Brothers once or twice.

If you hook your foot behind the brake pedal and pull up, you will gain at least 3 mph.
