I think anyone that has ever been said can be found on snopes. That place is amazing.

At what point in your life do you decide it might be time to stop tanning?

Steve,
Do you have the story behind this? What happened, besides the obvious? If you have a link, I have some Mustang and Vette buddies that are getting their hearts jump started and want to know more.....as do I. Quote:

I asked my buddie about the value of these vintage TransAm racers, I was expecting ~$100k, this is what he told me:
"As the Master Card Ad says, Priceless. Seriously, they are. The yellow/orange Mustang, if I am not mistaken, is now in the high six figures, or and the two Camaros on the left side are, I believe, owned by the Edelbrock family, Vic Jr. and his daughter Cammie. The amount in this photo I can’t even begin to estimate the dollar value."

Remember the discussion over the CGT fatalities @ Ontario? Sounds like the potential cause of the accident may be similar to this one. Corner workers/flagmen and track layout can be very important.
Thankfully no one seriously injured.

Seems like more and more of this. There was a nearly mile long oil slick down the front straight of Summit Point when I was there in May. My second time on the track and I didn't see it like I should have. The corner workers never threw a yellow until I went off track trying to avoid the sand pit at the end of the main straight. Where's the training? Where's the Federal Investigation? Oh wait, they're looking into the fact we can see boob on GTA: SA if you really work for it. ![]()
