I'm sad they don't use their mascot Pizza Hut Pete any more.

It's a toss-up between HO slot cars and the Evel Knievel Stunt Cycle. Sure, we spent hours building little roads, fences, and parking lots in a dirt pile behind my house on which to drive our Hot Wheels and Matchbox around on, but that wasn't nearly as exciting as the other 2, especially when my car got on the ping…

Oh yeah, what happened to the groovy green 928 that was being used as the main image earlier today? I miss it. *sniff*

There was this one idiot cow-like chick in college that remarked about the 911, "ew, it's too bubbly looking." That has nothing to do with this thread, but I just wanted to hand out some extra end tags I have lying around, although I doubt it will work any better than those who have already tried because the nesting…

@detroit9000: That was my first thought (trucker hats & dresses). My next thought was, "Do the drivers wear Nomex robes?"
