And I hear swank likes spectators anyways.

I always cheer for the losers. So if I cheer for you, you need to step it up!.

I'd suggest you cheer for someone that has a chance of breaking Top 10. This car will always be bottom 10 in the concours, which means it's pretty much boned overall. I think you COULD come close to winning with one of these, if not winning overall, but you'd have to build it in a completely different direction than i did.

I bet I will do worse at Concours...

Come on dude, you saw my car last year. If you think it's going to be better after it's been hammered on for another 20k miles, you've got another think coming.

I do look forward to taking you for another ride, though. It was so slow after the drag day mishaps when you rode in it.

We should have a contest to see who can do worse at Concours.

Loser has to drink a Foster's.

So, is the loser the one with the HIGHER concours score, thereby losing the contest, or the LOWER concours score, thereby losing said concours? Seems to me everyone in that bet is drinking one way or another.

Yeah, the one with the higher score loses, thus having to drink a Foster's.

How are we supposed to know better? Your commercials even tell us that it is what passes for beer in down-unda. Hey, we gave the world Budweiser, Coors and Miller, so its not like the vast majority would know the difference ;)

You guys are sick, if Fosters is OK, you need help.

Beerathon called for the Challenge, bring something interesting, each of us has a new type to try, it has to be beer, Corrs, Miller etc does not qualify

No beer and you are labelled a Bob Costas and Hong Norrth can have you to toy with

Now, now, this IS GRM. I'm all for bringing your favorite microbrew but we should also have a low budget class. Blind taste test for cheap beers. Bring a 6 of your best cheap beer and a E36 M3 ton of red cups and some magic markers and we can vote on the best low dollar brew.
