As most of you know we had our district race on April fool's day and I was the car inspecter. I had a great joke set up but did not get the response I had hoped for. It was probably in bad taste considering the number of cars that had illegal modifications. I gave one of my son's spare cars from 4 yrs ago to my nephew and his father. It was legal then but modifications have since been outlawed. They brought it through the inspection line but the way it was set up only a few people could see the table at any given time. Nephew tried to check car in (most people did not know he was my nephew). I handed it back and said, "I can't let you run the wheels are illegal." Dad said, " They left us run like that at pack." I said, " I am sorry but you will have to change wheels or I can not let you run." Dad said, " I am not going to change wheels and you should let us run since they left it run at pack." I said, " Sir I am sorry but the car is illegal and will have to be repaired." He said, rather loudly, " I don't want to change the wheels." So I grabbed the car and broke it in half and said, "Now you don't need to change the wheels." And I handed it back to him. The guy right next to him about crapped. His jaw dropped about a foot and his eyes got as big as saucers. But he is the only one that really seen the whole thing develop. I started laughing and said, "Man I got you good" He realized what it was and said he could not believe that I just broke that kids car. I wish more people could have seen it.
