John crawled into the Fiero. He couldn't believe it was 20 years since the race..
The embarrassment from that fateful day still haunted him as if it had happened only yesterday. John still remembers the look of horror on the faces of the spectators when he stepped out of the Fiero...

... the receipts for all the parts he had bought for his prized Fiero. They needed replacing again. He was going to race again.
He checked with the Forum, and checked his list twice. Trying to know how not to "rice".
He had a plan, despite all the clatter (V8, 3800 4.9), he just wanted to race, that was all that mattered.

When Hall and Oats floated up out of the smoke and said hold on its about to get weird, the deck lid popped open and out jumped....
Barbara thought to herself, “If we build a barn in this big valley and that 4x12 falls on his head, will his life insurance pay double indemnity? I could have all I desire, I could meet John Doe and maybe become the cattle queen of Montana”
But Elvis was on to her, “Don’t step on my blue suede shoes, baby, or you’ll be headed for heartbreak hotel”

John and Daryl asked each other WWCW do ? Only to see cliffw go offer to help John and Daryl's neighbor. To cliffw's delight, it was that good looking girl with a Mini, steel grey, a V8, timed with Crane gears.

Blitzen ate blintzes and got the squirts, so everyone stopped down the road at the nearest gas station. The rest f the gang was accosted by earnest p worrel on a drift trike in full fishing garb holding a waffle iron and cat back system. He inquired about the recipe for eggs erroneous but could stay to chat as he had a garage door opener to install on his submarines balcony.
And was searching for his 24' extension ladder.........
