Drooze and Pops new Pit Crew Member Poll
 

Ok, since there seems to be some "gnashing of teeth" going on in a couple other threads and Im in no real mood for that since I blew another engine to smitereens today, this one in our Truck.....it was her time though. 189k and well the Mountains of VW were just too much for her.

I have decided to have a poll.

Now all 3 are equally qualified. None knows "****Z" They DO Know some tools, their duties will include loading and unloading the trailer, getting me soda, uh...."Gopher" work, etc. I am hitting Houston Solo, Vegas will be with the Old man, but after hrs well be at the Poker tables so some help is in order. They will help load, unload the trailer (and if you saw how we pack our trailer, 1 may not me enough), Etc....Get me tools, run for fuel, run to town for this that and the other and well, do what my son does when hes not in school.


The blonde , well her name is "Drema", She is 5.2 , 24 years old and 103lbs, and she is more of an IRL / Cart Fan but noone is perfect.

The Brunette , her name is "Mandie" and Mandie is an "Actress", she is also 24, 5'9, and her favortite hobby is KNITTING ! (seriously)

The 3rd Bald dude is "Jay" Jay is our Drywall guy who helps clean up my mess around the shop. And can be taught just about anything, after 10 or 11 attempts.

YES I am as serious as a heart attack.......

Poll closes Saturday !

Poll winner will be accompanying us to Houston and Vegas and LODRS

This is one of the hardest decisions Ive had in about 2 days....so gimme a hand here....

"Jay"


I really need to let the Poll winner know asap, so thats why it ends Saturday....Im leaning twoard Drema.....but well...Mandie has potential....

Re: Drooze and Pops new Pit Crew Member Poll
 

Better make it Jay. Might be hard to concentrate with the other two, especially when they grab your dipstick to check the oil.

Re: Drooze and Pops new Pit Crew Member Poll
 

If you bring either Drema or Mandie to the Houston race, she may not be working for you by the end of the weekend! :D Just sayin'...... Good luck, see u there.

P.S. Just joking................ we can share pit members!

Re: Drooze and Pops new Pit Crew Member Poll
 

I voted for Drema,the reason was she like's racing(LOL). When in Vegas you just need eye candy.

Re: Drooze and Pops new Pit Crew Member Poll
 

I dono, we offer a VERY Competitive compensation package.

$50/Day at the track
2 Meals of $10 or less
Shared Hotel accomodations :)

The whole "sharing pit members" has me a bit nervous, I think Austin Powers calls that "Swingers Baby !":eek:

Re: Drooze and Pops new Pit Crew Member Poll
 

I voted for Drema 'cause she looks "smarter" than the others. Mandie looks bewildered and Jay, well what can you say about a guy who is caught on camera warming up his three day old Subway sub with Mandie's mini hair dryer! Just sayin. Jim

Re: Drooze and Pops new Pit Crew Member Poll
 

Do you even need to ask?? Without a doubt....

DREMA!

Chris,

You are for sure one of God's special people! Did you get the Challenger back together?

Take Care,

Re: Drooze and Pops new Pit Crew Member Poll
 

Workin on it, gotta plan ahead , Ma always said I was "Special":D Thats why I was in "special" classes and wore "special shoes" and leg braces as a kid (that part is true) but only at night :D I had nightmares the cam didnt fit last night.....

Re: Drooze and Pops new Pit Crew Member Poll
 

If you take Mandi or Drema , I'll help them while you play poker. lol ,but jay is on his own...!

Re: Drooze and Pops new Pit Crew Member Poll
 

You are not using enough pre-lube. :eek:

Re: Drooze and Pops new Pit Crew Member Poll
 

Forget about Jay and take both Drema and Mandie,I wouldn't even bring the DP.

Re: Drooze and Pops new Pit Crew Member Poll
 

what, no redheads?


i'm thinking DP may have a different meaning....

Re: Drooze and Pops new Pit Crew Member Poll
 

would have to take Jay for that

Drooze, I am beginnig to believe that your luck is so bad that you could fall into a barrel full of boobs and come out sucking your thumb.

BTW my vote is for Mandie, bald guys do not know what they are doing.

Re: Drooze and Pops new Pit Crew Member Poll
 

There ya go, thinkin with ya dipstick, Chris !

[QUOTE=Larry Curtis;177339]Oh it gets better Larry, you know the axle we had put on the trailer ? Well the DIP****S that repaired it instead of using (or re-using) good shackles used some junk (I just had GOOD all new shacles put on it) well one broke in town apparently yesterday, really, so I got to spend the last hr finding some in Charleston WV and Putting them on in the Parking lot of the hotel.....

Youre right, it gets kinda fun to know you attract all the dark forces of the universe into one single space on earth. Im getting REALLY good at planning ahead and for just about any eventuality.

Re: Drooze and Pops new Pit Crew Member Poll
 

I think you should really consider taking one of these guys.

WTF Drooze!? Talk about having a black cloud following you around. We're never pitting next to you! However, if the chicks are with ya.....

Re: Drooze and Pops new Pit Crew Member Poll
 

Toby

Now that is funny

BTW

The pictures do not seem to come up anymore

Just post a picture of the car they drive instead

Including Jays

Re: Drooze and Pops new Pit Crew Member Poll
 

Just get that new motor finished and that car back together.....get the car into the 9's.....then you can put the "drooze" T-shirts on those girls crewing for you and Dave......even hose them down in the pits after your first class win.....You making progress??:D WJ

Re: Drooze and Pops new Pit Crew Member Poll
 

Cranking along, lots of things taken care of today, lots more to take car of tommorow, its back to 16 hr days around here.

Re: Drooze and Pops new Pit Crew Member Poll
 

Well see its not really that we attract bad luck its well....we Wertmans have an extra Chromosome, the CGLR13

Its the Cosmic Good Luck Reflector Gene and its responsible for us not so much having bad luck but reflecting the good to those around us, see at Atlanta Art Leong reset his own record :D

BUT every once in a while I think we eat , drink, or are exposed to some kind of radiation that mitigates its effect, and when for that moment the gene is inactive we have a flood of good luck like you cant imagine.

And well....thats the conclusion Ive come to, emprically correct if not scientific.....

As good and realistic explanation I can find, if I thought about it too much I might feel sorry for myself, instead anymore I just find it comical....

Re: Drooze and Pops new Pit Crew Member Poll
 

Stop it I am to old for these picturres - LOL

Well maybe not

The first pictures are fine now - from work for some reason they did not show but Toby's did - very strange - they can not be spying - I don't think

Guess I should not be going here from work during the day

See you in Vegas - look forward to playing a few hands Downtown with you

Re: Drooze and Pops new Pit Crew Member Poll
 

Lol....Im sure its because they are from their Facebook and Myspace pages, most work is blocking those now.

Re: Drooze and Pops new Pit Crew Member Poll
 

I seriously doubt you have much of a chance to get either of those girls on your crew.

I heard Drema won't even talk to you unless you can go deep into the nines and Mandie can't stand it when a guy blows his hemi prematurely. :)

Re: Drooze and Pops new Pit Crew Member Poll
 

Oh Toby, !!!!!!!!!!!!????????????????????

Re: Drooze and Pops new Pit Crew Member Poll
 

:DRofl.......Thanks Toby I needed that 1000 miles up and down 77 in the last 2 days with this truck and trailer fiasco I can say that is the deepest laugh Ive had.

Thanks...........

Well, because its ME, and I as my mother says "can screw up a 1 car funeral" well......I told them MAY 4th - 28th for the trip......So Drema is a Wash for this trip, shell come with me after Indy Div.

Looks like Mandie for Houston Vegas and she wants to tag along for Indy Div, Ill just have to cope :D:eek::D

But well Drema is 5'2 anyway, Manidie 5'9 ....well.........(the ZZ Top song "Legs" just keeps running through my head)

NOW To see if she can line a car up like "Jungle Pam" :eek:

Re: Drooze and Pops new Pit Crew Member Poll
 

Toby, Very Very Funny. Thanks for the laugh!!!!

Re: Drooze and Pops new Pit Crew Member Poll
 

OK, now you have done it....

My lady friend was going to go to Vegas with me, and return home before I went down to Houston to meet our new crew members.....

Now, after reading the blog, (I think she has also started reading classracer) and now insists on going down to Houston with me too after we spend our week in Vegas while Drooze is tracking westward. I think she wants to see if our pit crew is a figment of Chris's imagination, or if these young girls are something she needs to be worried about...

I have already told her not to worry, as I have as much money invested in my relationship with her, (too many diamonds to wear at the same time, and too many cruises to remember, etc...) as I have in the car.. But after seeing the pictures, she is going to need some additional reassurances...and probably a couple of new diamonds too... Man racing the way we do, is sure becoming an expensive sport!

Re: Drooze and Pops new Pit Crew Member Poll
 

i have a shirt with Dr. Phil and the same pic, it says "YOU" need F**KING HELP"!!!!
dont know what kind of help in this instance though...lololololololololol

Re: Drooze and Pops new Pit Crew Member Poll
 

Droozer -- Here's the deal -- even though I've voted for Dreamy Drema smart money has you taking Jay on tour with you . Why you ask ? As both of the ladies are a bunch younger than you you're already off to a bad start -- sure tell us all that stuff about them being your crew but this guy's been to a rodeo or two and can see right thru it all .Is it help you want or someone to keep your feet warm at night and pick up your socks in the morning ? As for Jay -- at least he can help you with racing chores and maybe even drive your rig to the track .Once you're at the track with one of the " ladies" you can be sure that the areas around your pit will be surrounded by wolves .I'd rather have folks coming by to have a look at my new ride than to stare at my lady ( opps - I mean my pit crew person ).

Tomorrow is coming fast .........only a little time to wise up and make the right choice .

PS-- Why would you need to "import" one of them to Vegas ....there are plenty there ! ! BTW , I've always been a "Jungle Pam" fan ............And Drema is no Pam for sure as Pam could work on Jim's engine or drive the truck .

Re: Drooze and Pops new Pit Crew Member Poll
 

Lol.....oddly Ive got to say , Jay actually cant go, hes tied up (that was the real reason for taking someone to help load and unload the trailer normally me and my dad would, but he wont be at Houston so I need a spare set of hands)

AND As you pointed out, well Im getting old and both ladies are quite a bit younger, I cannot realistically or rationally expect them to have any interest, BUT It dosent mean pleasant scenery is out of the question :) (and Mandie has been a product spokesmodel before and is actually really sharp so I plan to educate her on the car in case anyone asks questions they will most likley be more interested inasking her thanm my ugly scarred mug (I can scare small children)

Youre right about Pam, when I was 10 I thought she was a PERFECT Woman.....lol....BUT It dosent mean they cant be taught......Jay , well Jay is a VERY Hard worker, but well he has issues with instructions, he actually follows them beyond logic I once asked him to pull the interior on my 72 Challenger so I could put the new interior in, and when I got back , EVERYTHING was out, Dash, Pedals, Column....yep the WHOLE Interior, I actually never saw it done that fast before though :) I would take him in a heartbeat but hes doing some new houses, hes a Drywall guy, and he works when he has work.....I would preffer it , he can handle my temper well and knows its never directed at him, just a general outlashing of frustrations then Im all better.....The girls well they might cry if I start kicking the car and yelling obsecnities at tools.

My real choice is Jay and my Son, my son has the drill down to a T trackside.....I mean a real machine,,,, but till schools out....

Picking my socks up requires a "Hazmat" waste removal liscence I have been told the NHRA will be charging me $5 for a sock disposal bag.

I MAY be wrong, but if Atlanta DIV was any example, the car is going to be a draw as it is....I just need someone to run interference while I work....

Re: Drooze and Pops new Pit Crew Member Poll
 

I agree Jack 100%..... Jungle Pam was definately in a class by herself......A picture is worth a thousand words and Pam backing Jungle Jim up from a burnout would say it all.......They were the best show in drag racing back in the matchrace days.....

I lost in the 1st rd of S/G at the Keystones in 1988 and decided to hang out and watch on Sunday.....I was in my favoirte spot at the bottom of the lanes sitting on a wooden lane divider by the fence.......Soon I notice Pam to my right and she was there for the whole race.

She looked better than ever and was enjoying the show.....A Very enjoyable day of spectating.........

Re: Drooze and Pops new Pit Crew Member Poll
 

Somehow double posted.....

Re: Drooze and Pops new Pit Crew Member Poll
 

Drooze also remembers Jungle Pam, and so do I...

I loved the showmanship that Jungle Jim put out there...And well, I have spent most of my life in a position where my approach to unconventional advertising and PR were keys to my success.... So if we can create a little buzz trackside, so be it!

And if you think just having an attractive pit crew is the end of the line for our idea factory, hold onto your suspenders...

However, having a competitive car is definitely also a very large part of our strategy... We don't believe in empty advertising. We will put out a good racing product too. Sooner, rather than later... But since we will not stop until we do, it will come.

Tomorrow we will pull the engine and find out if my suspicions about it are validated or not. Either way, driver error, or inevitable engine failure, once we get the bottom end into the light of day, we will learn something important...
