Starting a pool: When will Gerald finish his racecar?
#1
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 Smile Officially out of excuses!

I am going to go way out on a limb and say October 2006. There's a NASA event @ summit.

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.
