Topic: Gingerman racers: Want a Get Out Of Penalty Box Free card?

The Lemons HQ crew will need some form of pit transportation, so we can roam around and take photos of your hopeless attempts to fix your busted heaps, decide who deserves the Heroic Fix award, etc. Maybe you've got a couple of banana-seat Schwinns, or a golf cart, or a pulse-jet-powered barstool. Whoever loans us the best pit vehicle(s) for the weekend (with the understanding that it/they might get destroyed, of course) gets a priceless Get Out Of Penalty Box Free card for their team.

Re: Gingerman racers: Want a Get Out Of Penalty Box Free card?

I am bringing you a Honda Mini Trail 70 with a new motor. It starts on one gentle kick, is fairly quiet, and is easy to ride. It's like riding a bicycle, only you don't have to pedal. I'm also bringing you a bicycle as a backup.

Anyone own anything with four wheels?

Like, a four-wheeled bicycle?

I can bring you a 2007 Honda 400EX quad instead if you want 4 wheels. Electric start AND reverse!

Okay. Even though we'll be lucky to get on track at all, we'll bring it. One last hurrah before you go get hitched. big_smile

Sounds like Speedycop has you guys set up with a sweet ride but if you guys still want a 88' BMX bike and a scooter, let us know.

1998 Crown Victoria Police Interceptor...with a Lincoln Town Car interior.  It's seen a little "action", but I'll bleach any plastic surfaces. wink  Leather is minty.

Say the word...I'll unload gear from it Fri, and it's yours for the weekend.

Re: Gingerman racers: Want a Get Out Of Penalty Box Free card?

We still need something small to zip around in, but the Town Car-ized Crown Vic sounds like a perfect Judgemobile for use in the Ghost Ride The Whip penalty. We may have to issue multiple GOOPBF cards in this case.
