I know this is going to hurt your brain, but it can’t really be the Bench Racer ANNUAL if you hold the event twice a year. But if you think you can handle your pride and masculinity being removed by myself twice yearly, then I will be in attendance.

Please this year if you are going to be running spray make sure everything is good, no sticking selinoids ,no flaming pontiacs. As far as being now a semi- annual event thank you Mike for pointing that out. I’d actually like to change it to the Darkstar invitational but no one else agreed.

that name would conflict with Darkstar Mom’s Invitational so that would not fly. The event as of now is annual since there is only one planned for the year. If another one happens to be planned I will make sure I change the name.

Darkstar, please make sure your car is properly registered for the event. I don’t want any excuses.
