Lazy. You didn't push your car enough either.

How's this for lazy:

This afternoon WIRED Autopia asked for a photo to use in a piece about the event. I gave them yours.

Are those polished headlights or am I just seeing things? You knew you were going to score high and attract some press didn't you

Darin's a flashy man.

MetroMPG · 05-05-2009, 08:17 PM

No, sir! Those are the original headlights of an 11 year-old car with 24,000 medium speed km (15k miles) on it .

I did clean the car up for the expo. But I wasn't even planning to go in the rally. Ben, Tim (remotely) & Will badgered me into it. Peer pressure.

You can post links for every line

The results are up on the website - Welcome To The Official Green Grand Prix Web Site

They only list the winning cars for each category though, I was hoping for a full list of all the entries.
