Arrow OVER 40 peoplez CHALLENGE UNDER 40 PEOPLEZ to a DRAG-A-RACE!!

Thought of this idea last night! We line up in two lanes, one lane 40 aged people and over, other lane 39 aged people and under.

We put dial-ins on our cars and run just ONE (1) round. A $10.00 fee is payed to run the ONE round. The age group that wins the MOST races of the round, splits the money. IT's A TEAM EVENT, so all monies are shared or lost by the entire team. You can only win $10.00 or lose $10.00... but you can brag for a whole year that younger/older is better.

Waddayaz think??

That sound's like a wonderfull idea Or the loosers money goes toward buying beer for the winners Since I'm under 39, I'd love to drink at the expence of the old cats.

I'm thinking that "old" money builds cars more than "young" money..... Sounds like fun, but I'm thinking the older generation would win it.

If we're going to use a dial in it shouldn't matter how much you spent on your car, just how consistent you are.

I'm still trying to arrange child care for Saturday. If I can make it Hink, you'll have another member for team crusty. I just hit the big 4 oh in August.

Talking

But HInk...that means that it would be you against everyone else.

Seriously, if you want to set it up, do it*! I think it would be great!







* If this takes place at M7, 25% of winnings go to event organizer.

Sounds like some fun. May need to look at the age break unless we are trying to guarantee that the over 40 guys are getting more runs in their lane???

Cool

I'd be up for that.
And with a dial on your car it doesn't matter who has the faster car. It's who cuts the best light and can run their number without breakin' out.
I'm sure us slow old foggies wouldn't stand a chance
