Horray!!! The cage parts are here!!!!!


Now, it's time to prep the car, so we can take it to Todd's shop and get that pile of tubing into the car! A view of the office is below: Who needs a dash when we have zip-ties!!! You can even see the now-sort-of-awesome shifter!

The team debating the pros and cons of various themes, form Mario Kart, Trailer Park Ferrari, The Big Lebowski, Miami Vice, and generally hoping we can make if fun enough to get in for the February race. Our buddy Tyler is on the left.

OK, it's cage prep time!

Will gets the doors off and preps them for some hackage. Gotta fit NASCAR bars in if we want to survive a t-bone attempt by a gold-flaked 9C1 Caprice. We've seen enough videos to blow off any safety stuff. Some of us have girlfriends that would want to see us around.

Our friend, Ben Ritz, helping us cut up the doors.

Hamzah and Will attacking the sunroof, because it gets in the way of A) the cage and B) Will's big-ass head. We wouldn't have this problem if he'd just lean like a cholo!

Daniel actually looks serious for a little bit, chopping one of the billion welded tabs holding the cassette in.

Will is doing some spot-weld drilling. Love those hot metal shavings?

SHO and Daniel pretending to plan out what they are about to do.

Yeah, this happens a lot.

Will tapping out the edges of the cassette.

Is there anything finer than a Shiner? Yes, A Shiner and bashing on the Lemons car! Wait? Who is this? What do you think YOU are doing here?!?!?

Batting Practice!


Put your mouth on the curb!

One more for the road, you say?

Oh, we couldn't NOT use the Chebby! WOOOOOOOOO SUM-BITCH!!!!


Let's get the hell out of here, the neighbors are getting spooked!

Tickle-Me-Elmo the following day:
