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.

OK then we find RED Rolling Eyes 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.

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...

Think anyone can beat this?? LOL

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.

Quit thinking. Not traveling the same route would REALLY screw us up. Rolling Eyes

Yeah, you don't want folks to take the "more bugs than most" route. Rolling Eyes 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. Rolling Eyes
