The Del Mar Goodguys event ended up being a blast. Great weather and great turnout. The AutoX on Friday and Saturday was good fun also. There was an additional something happening in the parking lot of the AutoX event that's worth sharing. It has to do with a For Sale Sign, our famous Mr. Doug Renner, and woman named 'Big Wanda'.

So before the event I got a little creative :unibrow: and threw together a For Sale sign. Since Doug is such a great sport, I slapped it on his car on Friday at the AutoX. The sign was put there to make Doug and other people laugh when they read it, which it did. However, we could never have predicted that some people would actually take the sign seriously. That's where it got exceptionally funny. Before I continue, here's the sign:

That phone number, well, ummm, yah, it's the number to a brothel in Nevada. Gotta love Google. Seeing people walk up and actually take the sign seriously, pull their cell phone out of their pocket(quickly), and dial a brothel and ask for 'Big Wanda', well, you had to be there to watch it. If only we had a recording of one of those phone conversations. One guy was a real philanthropist. He felt bad for Doug and was willing to offer him......wait for it........... $8700.

Doug, feel free to chime in here. :D :thumbsup:

I would have to agree with you Greg (great meeting u BTW) I was surprized as to how many actually wrote the number down LOL. Great weekend and definitely worth the trip trip flying in.

Chris, that was one of the best parts of the weekend ----the sign is already up in the raceroom. I haven't laughed that hard in awhile---just the sheer number of people who believed it first of all, then those who were calling---that was freaking way to funny. Big props to Chris for pulling this off--it was on there for awhile before I ever saw it---I didn't know what a Nissan Leaf was--let alone Big Wanda. LOL

Glad we could all share some great laughs on that one. Thanks for being a good sport Doug and my partner in crime. I gotta get to work on my next devious creation(insert evil laugh here). Know any good phone numbers?:lol:

Can't wait to hang out with everyone again pronto!
