I know someone who used to own an absolutely beautiful bright yellow ERA who pretty much did the same thing when he lost to an equally beautiful HOK painted FFR. He got so upset that he made a big stink and left in the middle of trophy presentations, revving his motor loud enough so others could not hear the announcer. Then left the property spinning his tires............I heard he sold the car not long after and ordered a CSX continuation series

Mate, you are in rare form - You're last half dozen posts have been just stellar!
Nudging the bear rather than aggressively poking it.... I'm shamelessly love it!

When I had my other Cobra which was raced and driven hard and had all kinds of chips and things wrong with it, I took it to a car show some ways from here. Some guy with a very nice, far nicer than mine, parked right beside me. Some of the people were looking at mine and at the pipes and headers and I finally asked them what they were looking for. They said they wanted to be sure it was driven and they were tired of the show cars that were only driven on and off trailers. The guy with the really nice one came unglued and started yelling at the crowd about his car was far superior to that piece of junk and he drove his. He has almost 75 miles on the speedometer and I had well over 5K at that time. He left very angry and upset. I never won either as I know mine wasn't a show car and I was just there for the fun and to see the other cars.
