Or a six pack of a good microbrew.........

[Zaairman]

So, how many categories are we up to now??   

[Blown F-150]

Hmmm. Truthfully, it's pathetic. But, I'm sure the judges will take location into account. Of course they'll be even more willing to take unmarked twenty dollar bills into account!

I was going to try a lunch time drive to do better, but the snow was already gone...

I checked with the judges - who were just finishing the sixer of microbrew. They claim we're at 3 11/16th categories. Can we really trust these guys?

I don't recall any such conversation.

Memory is the second thing to go ...

Memory is the second thing to go. Besides, you had that lampshade on your head.

You mean that wasn't a long, thin snard? Gulp.

Well, I promised Dave that I wouldn?t share any of my truly ?contest busting? stuff too early on in the competition, but I had to make a 25 mile part run this morning in nearly perfect conditions. It was 8 degrees (F), snowing lightly and there was about 2? of fluffy stuff on the expressway. (Especially if one stayed in the ?Snard Formation lane.?) So, I went for it.

The result of my efforts was a truly awesome tailgate snard that almost brought tears to my eyes. (Or maybe it was the 247 degree MacDonald?s coffee?) In any case, here?s my double throw down, click whizzer, take no prisoners entry into the Tailgate Snard category. Eat your hearts out! (And yes, my parking lights are actually on.)

[GreyMichFX4]

Nice entry Tom. 

[Too Stroked]

I almost hate to do this ? two entries in one day ? but it?s just so darn snardly out there today! A few hours after I captured my own Tailgate Snard, my son came over to the shop with the Escape. ?Dad, I think you need to see this? was all he said. Expecting to find some sort of crumpled sheet metal, you can imagine how proud I was to see these two entries.

First, here?s a classic Wheel Well Filler Snard. You?ll probably notice the snard prevention device (mud flap) which prevented the formation of the classic Behind the Wheel Well Snard, but none the less, this isn?t bad for an 18 year old:



Next, here?s a truly hard to beat Running Board / Tube Step Snard. I think the Escape has tube steps, but it?s pretty well buried. This one might just be the winner unless somebody really pulls one out of the hat:

I had a really really awesome one going on my Crapalier.  It went all the way to the ground.  I should have taken a pic of it.  But, it fell off when I pulled out of my 'hood.  I knew it fell off, cause I ran over it, and it was frozen solid.   

[Rollingrock]

wow, 2S....that is pretty impressive.

[GreyMichFX4]

Nice entries Tom, I am going to have work really hard to beat those. Now I just need to find an unplowed two track and go have some fun.
