Yes, The Twisted Pickle rocks! Did Mike tell you the story about how we came up with the name back in the Fall of 2008?

I hope to drive the Turbo through the TOD and Pickle in 2011.

Bill, I don't recall how you all named it. Do share!

Here's a HD vid of my drive down the TOD in Derb's boxster...

Randall, I don't completely remember the entire story and background, but I do remember alcohol and a very cute girl were involved. We need Derb and Sammy to help fill in some of the blanks.

Basically, we were at dinner one night eating hamburgers and drinking beer. There was a very cute girl in a green camouflage tank-top that Derb noticed first. Somewhere a comment was made about a game of "hide the pickle" might be fun with Tank-top-girl. Then something was said about free pickel rides. And then lastly we came up with "The Twisted Pickle" and how we should start selling T-shirts to fund our Carrera GT purchase.
