$25 Car

 
One fine summer day Jeff and Sean decided that it might be fun to enter a Claimer race at race city (basically where you race cheap 4 cylinder, front wheel drive, automatic transmission cars around the oval track).  Not long after a car came in to the shop where Jeff was working that a guy bought for $200 but needed $800 worth of work on it.  We bought it for $25 from the guy and spent $16 on a new camshaft for it.  Well, as it turns out we were too lazy to actually race the car, but at least we got our 25 dollar's worth.

When the test drive ended like this we felt obligated to buy the car.

Ghandi err... I mean Amit demonstrates his excitement about the school winning the big cross-country meet.

Performing a standard safety check.

So maybe Jeff shouldn't have been the one in charge of safety.
