|
|
During the Poker run for a small fee $1 ~~ $5 or somthing like that each you get a stick on 3 inch oringe dot. You put it anywhere on your car that you would like. At the end of the day we compare dots and see who has the most bugs, closest to the center, and or the largest splat on the dot.
If you do all three then take the money took in and split it 4 ways, one to the club and the other therr to the class winners. The cars must be driven under their own power the entire trip to qualify for a prize.
Just somthing that a Motorcycle Club member I spoke to once told me about that sounds like fun. _________________ 1962 "Red Rocket" 2110 Toy

OK then we find RED or white circles to use for targets.
On the Motorcycles they put them on the headlights. But I think the windshield would be fine also. Mine seems to collect bugs real good. _________________ 1962 "Red Rocket" 2110 Toy

This pic from my 3,450 mile trip cross country gives a good illustration of the areas of a beetle that have the highest collection of bugs, on a bug...

Well I think that if you pay for a Dot then you can put it on what ever you like. That being said, I do think that each vehicle should travel the same route to be in the contest. _________________ 1962 "Red Rocket" 2110 Toy

Yeah, you don't want folks to take the "more bugs than most" route. How many bugs do we plan to catch. I looked at the front of Winnie and I have maybe 2 bugs. And that's a week of driving. How about we catch oil spots from the car ahead of you. _________________ 71 Standard Beetle "Big Bird"

Jake, I had a '67 that I drove from Colorado to NY to Martha's Vineyard and around the island...nearly three months with no bath...I may have had that beat... _________________ "A vision without a task is a dream - a task without a vision is drudgery- but a task with vision can change the world."
