My vote was for Faster Farms. I think they may have had more of a chance if they didn't put their car on the roof!
Thanks for the props. For what it's worth, our theme was "Porcubimmer 2: Judgment Day" which explains the skin "peeled off" the front corner and the red "eye." We had to change it up a little for fun.
5150 for real! They even painted the cowcatcher on the hood and outlined the wheels. The only lunacy that's even close is the Porcubimmer and the Faster Chickens and their times will come (excluding the house team of Murilee and the Metals).
True story: The Bi-Polar express team felt that their car was too slow on the first day of racing, so on Saturday night they took the train off the car to make it go faster.
Removing the 400-pound particle-board locomotive atop the Mustang did NOT make the car go faster. Didn't seem to change anything, as a matter of fact. So they put it back on and finished the race in full regalia, center of gravity (and aerodynamics) be damned. My hat is off to these people-- as Chief Perp Jay said, "they get it."
F1 with less money (say a twentieth of current numbers) would be twenty times more fun.
Bring back Osella, Minardi, Coloni, AGV, Ligier, Tyrrell and so on, and let them race. And best of all, no money means that drivers will once again be free to speak like humans.
So, did I miss the post announcing that Andrew had been moved up the Masthead to sit with the sexy Ms. Martin, and that the other two interns had been taken out back and shot?
F1 is dying on its arse,the Bernie & Max show with all the new rules have killed the sport. There's the odd good race,but not a patch on the good old days.
Honda has been parrallel to Toyota & Nissan recently in financial strength & was always a japanese pioneer in performance along with mitsubishi & subaru... but, to see them cutting costs like crazy lately, & selling their F1 division, along with the $7.9 billion rumoured for development of "green sport cars" (along with other "green" projects); which makes a person think:
"Did Honda, within a year or 2, stupidly adopt Detroit's not-so-Big 3's catastrophic finance systems in an act of blind & idiotic jeleousy?!"
I hope not.. even though I like Japanese cars, especially Toyota... Honda had a special part in my heart, my dad owned a 1993 Civic & I cried the day it was sold 2 years later... I hope the best for the company, Seriosly!

I think the BMW tie is in good taste and classy. However, this tie is a bit garish. #jalopnikholidaygiftguide
