    Dressing up to go auto racing!

    I participate in this unique event called 24 Hours of LeMons. It's an auto race (from 13-24 hours long) for cars that are bought and prepared for less than $500 (not including safety equipment). There are lots of fun aspects of the event, from bribing the white-wig-wearing "BS" judges with alcohol and money to creative punishments for bad driving. Themes are also encouraged for the cars, drivers and team members, so I've been accumulating a lot of costumes lately... 

    As a 70s ho, Pimpmobile Honda CRX in the background.

    Brides of Frankenstein and Drs. Frankenstein (their lab coats didn't show up on time). I'm on top of the car, which is a Mazda Miata.

    Elvis and his '59 pink Cadillac (or Miatallac in this case). We all custom-rhinestoned our jumpsuits.

    Woops, I'm in the green rhinestones in the Elvis pic. Click on the photos to get the full version! They're wider than the post column.

    Looks like fun! Love the Elvis jumpsuit, the rhinestones are cute :)

    I ran my mouth out off a bit too much, oh what did I say? You just laugh it off, it was all okay.  And we'll all float on okay...
