We're thinking big for the fast approaching UTBT 09. I've talked amongst some past participants and everyone is in agreement that we should all chip in some cash to buy a beater car. Preferably a RWD car with a v8. It only needs to be barely running. We can take it out to the beach and do donuts till we pass out from the g-force. Then we can take turns seeing who can take it the furthest in the woods. Or who can see who can go head on into a tree the fastest. To fit in with the locals we can run straight pipes. We can also pack the trunk with ice and beer so no one will need a cooler in their truck. When we are done we can take it downtown to cruise Beale Street or we can just set it on fire.
Ideally we can find a 1980's era Monte Carlo:
However, there seems to be a premium for these fine examples of Americana and we'd need about $1500 to play. We may have to settle for something in the $500 range depending upon interest. Locally, we've found some station wagons, roofless Blazers and cargo vans in that range. It just depends on the level of interest from all of you.
Post up your thoughts and if there is enough interest I'll set up a paypal account for donations.
