Aero Challenge Yellow Car Championship

Post by Bob Bull »

Following the idea of the highly regarded Tony Lees that the Championship should be won by a yellow car I have compiled a result for 2017;

1st Number45
2nd. Number 22
3rd. Number 42
4th. Number 87

Congratulations to all of the yellow cars taking part in the competition, no doubt a suitable prize will be presented at the Driver's Dinner.

A bowl of custard perhaps?

Bob- you forgot rule 6c from the Blue book,ie anyone who has driven a non yellow car during the season is ineligible to win the yellow car prize.

As the driver of a red car I feel that those of us who drive red cars are being discriminated against. [-X

Dear John, it will be a BLACK day when YELLOW cars are subject to BLUE book rules, indeed sufficient to make them see RED! While other SHADES turn GREEN with envy, there may be a SILVER lining, as multi-hued cars fly on wings of PURPLE, and GREY ones turn pale, causing those already WHITE to raise concerns about unfair competition.

I fear that Mr Lees has opened a can of worms here.

Hi All

The silly season seems to have started early this year; I estimate there are still 67 shopping days to Christmas!

I understand the new ARV6 runs on worms which may be why Tony opened the can

Mary- the worms are unleaded add 98 octane so are legal. You are welcome to test a worm at random though.
I have heard rumours some successful Moss box drivers are now using kettles of fish which is of course not cricket.

John, I am just not sure that they are allowed - can you get them from petrol station pumps?
