Why feel guilty? You met the challenge without having to leave the house, much like our first point winner got an easy point because all I said was to take a pic of the car in the driveway...easy as pie. Ya got lucky, I say keep the point, but if you want to see if someone manages to get the point from you, feel free.

:cheers:

I just want to see if anyone is up to the challenge. :D

Nope, I'll post the answer in 22 hrs. and relinquish the point to the first correct answer that beats the time limit.

haha unfortunately I have no RC plane :( The only reason I brought it us was the toy car and then someone saying it had to be a real plane... and an RC plane is real and a toy :)

24 hours and no one came through. This RC glider was originally designed and made by Hobie Alter of surfboard and catamaran fame in 1974. It is a Hobie Hawk. The elliptical dihedral should have been a dead giveaway. It is a very distinctive feature of this glider, (tonycarreon-the Airtronics Aquila has the more conventional polyhedral and the wing has a constant cord center section.)
Thank you Overdrive for letting me hijack your thread. I had a feeling that my point wasn't in too much risk, now back to the picture challenge. You would think that anyone from Alaska to Colorado could do this easily. Hell, I can see a snowy mountain from Seattle and I don’t even have to leave the city.

Overdrive 09-01-2011 09:27 PM

C'mon folks, find that picture of your Boxster with a (real) snow covered mountain! At best my local mountain might have some fog toward the top, so I'm SOL at the moment...

Overdrive 09-02-2011 01:03 PM

Ok, Spinnaker, looks like we're about 5 hours away from the 48 hour mark. You'll have your second opportunity to retain your point starting then for the next 24 hours after that, and upon succesfully doing that, presenting the next challenge...not that either of them have been particularly difficult.

Don't let that stop any of you from trying to post up a picture if you've got one or are going to get one in the next 30 hours. You just have to beat Spinnaker. :cheers:

OK Overdrive, I will post it now since I know that you will be busy this weekend with your clamshell/top issues, just so we can move on. I seems that everyone is photo challenged as of lately. Don’t know why it is so hard to find a mountain. I just drove a mile over to Lake Washington and snapped this while I was running an errand yesterday. Figured I’d plan ahead for the inevitably lack of picture posting, because it appears that most of you don’t have the time to chase after the challenges. The next one will be as easy as my brick wall one was.
As long as the Sun is shining where you are this one should take any of you about 15 seconds to do. The most difficult thing you might have to do is to move the car out of the garage. It is better that I post this now, since the sun is still up on the east coast. If I waited until the 48 hr time limit came up, the west coast would have the advantage since you would be in the dark by then. My apologies to those in the EU.
Next: A close up of the Porsche crest on your hood with a reflection of the Sun next to it.
BTW, everyone knows that this would really be a challenge here in Seattle because it rains here all the time. :cool:

Nice and sunny here in LA.

Next, Boxster at a shopping center.

Thanks thstone, I was beginning to think everyone lost their cameras.

ProjectM96 09-03-2011 07:24 PM

I was at a shopping center yesterday and I thought, my car looks good parked there. I should take a picture.

But then I got a phone call that distracted me and I completely forgot to take the picture.

Overdrive 09-05-2011 06:41 PM

Well I'm sure everyone's been having themselves a pretty good holiday weekend.

thstone, looks like you might have to supply your own shopping center picture tomorrow evening unless someone else comes through in that time.

Sorry I've been slow on getting the points totals up. It'll be up soon.

How's that !


Next : Boxster with a sexy lady ! Sexy is the operative word !

Overdrive 09-06-2011 10:39 AM

Well, you just barely managed to get the Newbury Comics sign in the picture, so I think we're good in knowing that lot is at a shopping center.

Now folks, remember, keep it tasteful, and make sure it's YOUR Boxster. And remeber Johnny, someone else's definition of a "sexy lady" may be very different from what you had in mind when you typed it. :rolleyes: ;)

It's definitely a shopping center. The original size of the photo was too big to upload onto the site, so I had to "crop" it in order for it to fit . I guess I just made it ! Now, bring on the sexy ladies !!!! LOL ! :D

Burg Boxster 09-06-2011 11:43 AM

To Johnny's point, the other OPERATIVE word here is LADIES as in plural :cheers:

So... submit a pic w/ many or many different pix. Point shouldn't be awarded until we have multiple submissions unless of course the next challenge is a follow up requesting a specific pose :D :D :D

Overdrive 09-06-2011 12:47 PM

Don't mind Burg's overzealousness, folks, or his serious use of bold print. We're still going by Johnny's original post, and unless you've all got ladies in line to take pics with your Boxsters, I'm sure (more like hoping) this won't degrade into a Johnny Danger photobook of a thread (no offense meant, sir. ;) ). Of course I have no worries that Johnny will be able to supply his own challenge solution (en masse) should the time limit come.

Johnny Danger 09-07-2011 06:53 PM

I thought Ekam would be all over this ???????
