We were 2 spots over from them at Dallas. They weren't feeding anybody there. So do bribes carry over from race to race if they're extreme enough? Could I run a LMP1 car without penalty laps for 2 consecutive races if I bought blowjobs for everybody in the paddock (and if I had an LMP1 car)?
As I think is plenty apparent from our theme at ECR, we're into this mainly to have a fun time, so I don't mean to make too big a deal out of this. But IMHO, bribes are fun until someone starts bringing real equipment to a crapcan race. Then this starts getting unsportsmanlike and decidedly less fun. I realize that there's always a fine line in the traveling circus that is Lemons between it being an art car parade (although there's not so much of that in the Texas races) and a real racing event. I'd just like to see a little more fun theme stuff going on in the races (and covering your car with fake boobs for the 5th race in a row doesn't count -- I really don't mean to pick on the nudists, it's just what came to mind first) and less uber-racey stuff. Unless it's fun stuff that's combined with the racey stuff like the Eyesore guys do so nicely. Just my two cents.
