Yeah...the coloring was interesting on that. Still...silver wins.

That picture of the Range Rover is embarrassing... I want a redo with a camera that has full charged batteries!

Also...maybe less people around so I actually have room to take pictures.

THE PRESSURE! IT BURNS!

Oh dear she's found the smiles button.... but yes it was difficult getting pictures at times (As you said...people being oblivious to others taking pictures) Jaguar painted all of it's cars matching silver which was a nice touch (Audi did the same thing in white)

The Dodge cars with the odd colors might be an attempt to bring back the 60's or early 70's. I remember they had a lot of odd colors then and advertised them heavly.

I don't recall all the names, but the Purple car color was called Plum Crazy. There was also Panther Pink and Tor Red.

Jingle Benz was one of many decorated entrants. Last year, Darling Wife and I helped prep Barb & Louis' entrant.

I proudly present The Thunder Fox:





We haven't been able to make the run ourselves, but it is most definitely on the calendar for '10.

Now THIS sounds like fun!
I gotta get a beater and enter next year!
Are you telling me that the wagon in the picture was only a $500 car? Daymn! I want it!

The BABE rally is one of those things that should be a mandatory pre-30 activity, along with the 24hrs of Lemons.
