You don't buy beer... you rent it... jus' sayin'...

I just got the paperwork in the mail...we have to come up with a team name and a car name...any suggestions?

 

[TinmanMS6]

Shouldn't we have a design idea before we try to name the thing?

Meh... details.. design can come later. A cool team name is more important than design!

How 'bout Team Anal Wasabi.

Less than two months until this event. We should probably make some progress soon-ish...

Then again, a drunken marathon build the night before the event would only be appropriate.

That doesn't work so well. Been there...blah blah blah...forgot about the shirt.

It doesn't work so well with things that have to run. This just has to roll...and sort of stop.

We could build the car out of beer cans...forcing us to drink in order to complete the car.

for during the build or the event? 0.o

 

[sprzyborski]

We should just set a date in the next couple weeks and have people show up with parts to get the ball rolling.

btw, if we need, I'm sure I could requisition a trailer to haul this thing with enough notice.

We can't just tie it with a rope to the bumper of Przyborski's MX-5?

that'll work too I'd imagine.

 

[sprzyborski]

No can do. The soapbox derby car will probably be bigger than my car.
