    maybe RIPORTER has big enough PLUMS.....:evilsmile

    You might even ask is he Plum Crazy enough to do it:D

    Then again maybe John Ford should put pinkys pink slip up for grabs.

    I'd race the War Machine but I got nothing to prove:rolleyes:

    some body's gotta have a (parts) car to race. And we donate parts and or time. Since it's tv it only needs to be a fifty footer.

    not me :whistle:

    I just do not see why anyone would put that much time and money into a car then "roll the dice" :mg:

    PINKY and I have to much history for me to ever take that chance.

    Agree with Lance....I have nothing to prove :yup:

    I dont see how anyone can justify giving away time and money like that. I guess they go into it with that "there's no way I can loose" attitude. But, at least half of them are wrong.

    Pinks is not about who has the best or the fastest car, or who is even the better racer. It is about who is the best negotiator.

    Hmmmm....Here's the deal...I'd do it if there was enough money to buy my car back if I lost, whatever amount would be acceptable to the winner.

    I'd pay the expense of setting the car up for 1/4 mile, possibly add some nitrous and alcohol carb AND pay for the trip.
    But there's no way I'm leaving the track without my car.:tiphat:

    most of the time they ask for 12 sec car and someone always brings the 8 sec car.And does not want to give anything up,to make it a good race.
