don't mess with us

or we'll chalk up your driveway to say something not so nice!

Los Angeles Downtown NEWS.com

For those of you who didn't visit our pit booth the day of the races, you didn't get a chance to meet our honorary 6th team member by way of Richard Guzman, City Editor for LA Downtown News.  He dressed up as ed's counterpart - tweedle dum.

Here is his article that he wrote about us, as well as the race itself:


As well as some pictures from the article and race day festivities:

introducing...the wonderland adventurers, plus richard guzman (far right)
yes, ladies - that is erik estrada sitting in our 3rd car 
i think his exact words were: "wow, that's what i call a racing seat!"
and he continued by offering us each a pair of his famous estrada glasses if we found a way to mount the seat onto his CHiPs motorcycle


ok, maybe not. but he is making an "uh-oh" or "oops" face. which can mean only one thing: he farted.


tweedle dee & tweedle dum - our wonderland enforcers/bounty hunters
off we go! escaping the queen of hearts with our heads fully intact

glory...lasts forever

of the 40+ teams that participated, 111,000 spectators in attendance, 8+ hours of extreme action...they only chose 8 photos from the Los Angeles race to make the gallery.

you guessed it! so we didn't win, but we made the gallery. that my friend is true glory. and as my not-so favorite actor, keanu reeves,  once said: "pain heals, chicks dig scars, but glory [dramatic pause] ...lasts forever." 

so click the link below and view the 3rd photo in the gallery for a glimpse of glory lasting forever. or until the website shuts down.
