After a short hiatus we are back in business for yet another epic MM showdown. Who's in, and who's bringing what?

This is where it all goes down: <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=409+hillwood+ave+22046&sll=37.0625,-95.677068&sspn=38.826758,93.076172&ie=UTF8&hq=&hnear=409+Hillwood+Ave,+Falls+Church,+Virginia+22046&z=16">http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=409+hillwood+ave+22046&sll=37.0625,-95.677068&sspn=38.826758,93.076172&ie=UTF8&hq=&hnear=409+Hillwood+Ave,+Falls+Church,+Virginia+22046&z=16</a><!-- m -->

Rex is going to bring teh slushie machine. This means long island slushies :evil:
Kaan is going to make some sort of bacon and pork product concoction.
Evan is on the hook for chili.
I demand Chapin makes several layer dip.

I'll order the bird, buy supplies for margarita and long island slushies, and probably make some roasted sweet potatoes.

If the headcount is high enough then I'll get a small keg, or y'all can just bring 6/12 packs of good beer. And by good beer I mean "not a 30 pack of miller high life". It should arrive in glass containers, not bottled by Anheuser-Busch or Coors...

Now drink with me deeply of the bourbon, scotch, and rye until such time as we are fighting drunk. Then we shall find, and beat the asses of, the nonbelievers who ruined my feast.

damn the board doesn't have a spoiler tag.

For those who missed the final races... Haga crashed out of Race 1 (which Spies won), leaving Spies with the opportunity to place as low as 6th and still win WSBK even if Haga took first in the final race. Haga ended up taking 2nd and Spies took 5th taking the World SBK championship as a rookie.

Various accomplishments this season -
Took pole on the first race of the season
Won the 2nd race of the season (first American to win since old boy Colin Edwards)
won 14 races, a WSBK season record (and puts him 12th on the WSBK All-Time Career Wins list)
11 poles, a WSBK season record
7 consecutive poles, a WSBK season record

Next year he bumps up to MotoGP riding with Tech 3.

I bet 90% of the people on this board already know this, but I figured we should have a thread for it. I consider it "pretty fucking awesome" that he pulled this off as a rookie, seeing how he hasn't been to 1/2 of the tracks, if not more.

Umm? What? At least its an actor that actually races...Patrick Dempsey.

new Mad Max film coming out. i just can't get enough of that blacked out interceptor.





no casting is final at the time and director George Miller will be spending a year building and testing the cars in the film.

"...it is revealed the film will have 30 weeks worth of production. With most films generally taking 2-3 months to shoot, this amount of production time is insane, and reveals some of what MillerÔÇÖs scope for the film will be. The whole project is expected to take 2 1/2 years to complete, so look for a Summer 2012 release date."

director on cars and stars

Not entirely sure how much i should pay for this, but someone on a forum has offered me an Evo x turbo for 370 shipped, it has under 10k miles. Is that a reasonable amount?

Good times. Joey and I washed our cars yesterday in anticipation of the Bob Wade event. Of course, as soon as the photo shoot was over, it rained. They looked good for at least 30 minutes, I promise

Anyway, I have a fisheye lens out from The Breeze right now and I had some fun with these. Enjoy...

2010 Boss 302R from Ford Racing

All indications are this is the 2011 Mustang GT running gear a year early placed in a stripped down limited production car (think Cobra R).

Going to Ham's bar and grill next Tuesday for some dinner at 645 pm

I've never been there but as I keep hearing about some cookie dessert that I HAVE TO HAVE.

In addition, I have some flyers from Peer Advising of the psych department giving us an entree and a side for only $3. Damn, I need me some Ham's.

If you're interested, show up.
If you need a ride, call me or email me.
If you're excuse is "I need to use a punch" then use it to get icecream at dukes later.

Seeya there.

If you're into history this is a pretty cool and quick read - The Badasses

This was spotted today in South Florida. I can't wait for this to hit the rounds of MT, C&D and the like. I find this statement to be pretty intriguing, as well...













Gotta love Lexus styling...that is one mean looking ride.

Edit: More in depth video of the production car. I'd buy it for that digital gauge cluster alone :lol:
