That's not a fair test. Smyka could win without a motor in his car.

I also read somewhere on the internet that Paul LeMieux once won a Major touring car race by simply swatting his car around the track with a rolled up Mad magazine. True story, I think I read that here somewhere.

Chuck Norris actually won the 2008 ROAR nats in 2007. The car was powered by beard stubble, and the body was formed from a perfectly placed round house kick to a sheet of Lexan. Although not legal for anybody else, the body was still allowed.

heres a fun chuck norris fact: Hes a huge douche. Perhaps the biggest douche known to man. The only problem is hes too old to get off his overrated ass and tell people yet another fact: that none of the jokes involving his name are even remotely funny.

well then, lets keep inline with facts on racers at the nats. here are some facts about the Kwik drivers:

- Juan Aveytia has to win his race or risk deportation. I.C.E. happens to be fans of r/c

- Steve Boice’s pants are so full of sugar that Skittles is asking HIM for sponsorship.

- Jeff Brown leads a secret life as the Michellan mans lover.

- Tim Pandiscio is driving for charity: H.O.M.O (Helping Overweight Midgets Overseas)

luv those guys! Go Sugarpants!!!!

RJ5,

It's okay to turn off the "no sense of humor" filter.

I'm with "the Bear", back to Nats stuff.
