    Murilee's right, of course--ideally, we'd have an algorithm that offset the high BMW finishes with the crappy ones, all while handicapping by the number of total BMW entries. On that note, there was one Renault entered in all 2009 races, and it ran for at least two laps. I think if we had an algorithm, Renault would have been the season champion. If we had an algorithm.

    I'm surprised anyone gets anything done all weekend what with all the tomfoolery and silliness that goes on at these affairs. I'd be cracking up so hard I'd be spilling my beer all over the place.

    And, they drive real fast in shitty cars. What could be more sublimely perfect?

    I have found some potential Le Mons cars. Would they allow a custom van to race? Or a 60's Ford truck?

    @Super Traction Engine: A custom van shouldn't be a problem. At Nelson Ledges this year, there was a van racing (when it wasn't in the pits). Although it might have earned an exemption due to its caminoization.

    Either the van or the truck might push the envelope on the 4200lb GVW limit, but as long as it squeaks under, you'll be fine. Otherwise, get an exemption before you spend the time and money prepping it for race duty.

    Classic.

    South Park, I found, was disturbingly accurate as a documentary-type thing on the Jefferson/Park county area.

    Still funny-as-hell, though.

    This one seems sorta politically incorrect or somethin. I can wear my neon green Driveshaft Through the Skull T-shirt anywhere really. School, hockey games, the garage when I'm working on the Tempo.

    But I think I could offend people by showing up in a Shabbat Shalom M F R shirt.
