Want to dent an Eclipse??

Castle Bravo · 08-17-2005, 02:21 PM

I HOPE NOT!

However - you could smash into this guy's door and tell your friends you did... although I'm guessing Leigh would have his work cut out for him on this repair...

This is a banger-race-car (as Leigh put it), demolition derby for all of us stateside. Apparently this guy is one of the top UK drivers and wins a lot of races... and Leigh convinced him to do a bit of friendly advertizing. 8)

That is friggen AWESOME!

I'm sure alot of people in that crowd will be placing orders.

Can we get some post race shots?

I thought Leigh said he was buying that car for Radka to drive.... and she was going to go to the airport to pick up Lara and her mother with it!

...seems to be as hot as Leigh's horns - BUT: there should be a hood ornament on it to make it really cool?!?!?

Hi All

Sorry about the hood ornament Frank!

I should have thought of that i guess.

I just thought this was a little different than the normal type of advert so i asked my sister's boyfriend if it were possible to have this done.
I wanted the doors to put up in the workshop but the car was real messed up during the race.
Mark (the driver/ sisters boyfriend) is a top driver in these type of races and everyone makes a beeline for the poor guy every time he races so it's always a big scrap.

Glad you all liked it

I am having the doors of a jaguar sprayed soon so i can put them up in the workshop.
Many of you probably think i am quite mad , but i think its interesting.

Regards

Leigh

Now that would be funny.... I can hear it now,
"Lara, if we make it to the shop without a scratch... you get a case for your new horn! If we make it without getting pulled over... you get free valve oil for life!"

Lara!! Do you have a helmet you can bring along? Blinders might be a good idea too.

Thanks Rich

That makes me feel a whole lot better

Well it helps to be a little mad these days, with the world the way it is it helps you get through each day a little better .

Trumpetmike is threatening to come into the workshop on Friday to try out a flugel so the place is gonna smell of curry for the next few weeks!

Sorry Lara and Lara's Mum , but it will be his fault!

Mike bring your cornet peice with you okay.

Regards

Leigh
