Starting a pool: When will Gerald finish his racecar? - Evan - 04-19-2006
Its been quite some time since the Doggfather of MM has turned a wheel in anger on track, and given the current state of his racecar, might still be some time before he does.
So, since he is now residing in a big pimpin hizzouse with 2 car garage and plenty of parking, he is officially out of excuses, so to provide motivation and at the same time poke fun, Ive decided to start a pool.
The rules are, the pool will be based on the month that his integra racecar is fixed, operable, goes to the track and operates properly for a full day. Doesnt have to be a w2w race, but it has to get through a whole day without any major mechanical problems that park the car, and it has to have all his intended parts on it (ie - ITA/H4 legal with new motor and new suspension)
$10 for a month, starting in 2007. (although any bet before 2009 is well against the odds anyway)
If angels descend from heaven and G puts the racecar on track in 2006, he gets the pool.
:lol: :twisted:

At this rate, you'll pay out the pool about the same time G starts collecting Social Security.
I'll take July 2007. I've got faith.

damn! :lol: Well I put him on track somewhere in 2007 as well, I'll have to check the schedule... do I get double payback or anything for being in the pre '09 group? Does it count if he tracks something other than the integra?

Nope!
Evan, you also forget he's got a good engine and transmission, and all new suspension bits for the car as well. So it really a weekend, a set of tires and an annual tech inspection away from being able to drive on track
Officially out of excuses!I am going to go way out on a limb and say October 2006. There's a NASA event @ summit.
- G.Irish - 04-19-2006
So we have $20 so far?
- Mike - 04-19-2006
he's going to race bikes instead, we've been over this.
- Dragon - 04-19-2006
I'd put money in on this but he's a sneaky bastard.
- white_2kgt - 04-19-2006
I don't bet, but, if he comes out TO A NASA RACE this year I'll give him $10. He must go though annual tech (not done by Kaan, only Grumpy!) but can still run HPDE if he wants.
- G.Irish - 04-19-2006
$30! Woo hoo!
And yes Matt I am a sneaky bastard :twisted:. This last weekend I kicked game to a girl and didn't tell her my name period. She txt messaged me and called me the next day and she still didn't know my name till last night when I left a message and told her my name
- Maengelito - 04-19-2006
i'm in. i'll take oct 2007. damn chapin for taking july. that month has two events.
- Hunter - 04-19-2006
Im going to take april 2007, I have faith.
Although I really think I just lost $10.

February 2007 but man I'd like to see it sooner.
- Feersty - 04-19-2006
February 2008
- Kaan - 04-19-2006
I'm in ($10)... because i can just tell Rich or Grumpy not to pass the car.
you'd have a better chance of that car coming to see me.
- Evan - 07-10-2006
so you still going to take the pool G?
wheeee!
- G.Irish - 07-10-2006
What are we at, $80?
- Ginger - 07-10-2006
I bet $5 that it doesn't get finished
- G.Irish - 07-10-2006
You can't bet $5, the buy-in is $10 fool.
- Mike - 07-10-2006
an axle nut has been removed since the beginning of this pool. yes, singular. yes, it took 2 nights.
