Why do I picture a posting here in about five years about how to remove lip prints left by Previous Owner?

Wonder what other body parts were involved?

When people risk their lives, shouldn't it be for something very important?
Well, it better be.
But what is so important about driving faster than anyone else?
Lots of people go through life doing things badly. Racing's important to men who do it well.
When you're racing, it's life. Anything that happens before or after is just waiting.

I wonder how many entrants were motivated by the idea of acquiring a Porsche Boxster or reselling it for @ $45,000.

Wow, I think I would be able to pop some pain killers and go all day. New Porsche in a few hours worth of discomfort... not bad. I'm sure it wasn't easy just to get selected for this though.

BTW: Thanks bmussatti
