    That's a very creative idea.

      If anyone has a racing museum in the vicinity, that's where I got this pic. This was in front of the Unser museum here in town. Surely someone has a car they run down the quarter mile, or has one near by. Right around the corner from me is a dragster, and another that goes to CA regularly for the salt flats.

          The salt flats have been moved out of Utah?

            Mixed up on the location, my mistake. The car is a few streets over though.

            If you're interested here's an older youtube video of a run.

              With the lack of response to the race car tag, I thought I'd throw an alternate out there. In hopes of keeping this moving.

              A coin operated pay phone. These used to be everywhere but around here they're pretty scarce.

                The race car tag is a good one, just give it time. If you subscribe to this thread, you'll get an email when someone posts something.

                  You haven't broke the thread at all...









                  I had spotted a GT car while out and about previously and used this to get this tag. But there was no cars about when I went so I knocked on the door and met Phil Stott. What a gent. Couldn't have been any friendlier and more helpful. Thanks Phil!

                  The car is one of a large collection of Group C and IMSA race cars from the '80s and '90s. It is a Nissan R90, 3.5l twin turbo pushing 900 bhp. It's also for sale if anyone is interested. Some of you may be familiar with Chip Robinson who drove this one.

                  Had a great time there, petrol-head heaven... but I soon left when he denied me a drive around the block This tag has been the highlight of the riding game.. so far.

                  So the next challenge is your bike with a large building skeleton frame or large construction site, that sort of thing.

                      Beautiful car and nice pick for the next tag. I think I can get the next tag but not until The weekend.

                        Im out and about touring NY, VT, NH and ME with my girlfriend 2 up... I have no access to a computer so I could grab tags but no means to post.

                        Definitely grabbing miles at least! I'll hop back on when I get back.

                          Hitting the road later on today. I know of a suitable building for this tag. If its still up when I go out tonight, I'll be grabbing this tag.

                            I've been crazy busy with a surprise party for my daughter's 20th birthday and work so I probably won't be out on the bike for a couple of days. Can't wait to see what you guys come up with.

                              I went out last night for a while and there's a few buildings in the frame stage. If it's still the tag I'll get some pics later.

                                Went for my Sunday morning breakfast ride and could only find a ground work sites or sites that were already in the wall stage. My wife said she saw something like the tag, but she doesn't remember where. I too darn hot, but if she remembers later before dark, I'll see if I can get it.
