It's too late to join now, but if you are around Des Moines, you can check on the site for their route, and put up prank direction signs, or some other funny stuff.
Next year join them, and get a tour of the Albaugh collection before the race.

Best looking trash and recycle cans I've seen
The bins are reclaimed standard city trash bins with a custom fabricated top on the recycling bins. In the coming months, the Association is expanding the number of recycling bins to 20.
The students developed several great options. The El Cajon Boulevard BIA Board was so impressed by the designs that they decided to select three of the student's designs rather than the single design that was initially planned.
Congratulations to Kristin Hardy, Sonya Calderon, Cat Hunt for providing your creative design work which greatly enhances the Boulevard's garbage and recycling bins.
Magazine review: Old Cars Weekly (Great content and variety, but nothing in color)
Wow, lots of cool content;
Vintage ad of the week
Wreck of the week
Impressive coverage of the big auctions
Concours De Elegance coverage
Feature car coverage
Bad news though? No color photos, just color ads, it's half classifieds, and the annual cost (but keep in mind this is for 5 times as many issues as monthly magazines) is double to triple what I pay for most of the dozen subscriptions ($32 for 52 issues vs $15 for 12 issues)... that aren't half classifieds, are all color, and have many more feature car stories.... black and white entertainment became archaic over half a century ago. Might as well daily commute on a horse as read a black and white magazine.
Good news? What they have is really damn good, and they have a hell of a lot of good stuff on the internet too. Several blogs from their subscribers? or staff... news, events, and readers cars plus lots more

What is the best thing to do to other drivers who piss you off in traffic?
So far being in front of them and keeping your windshield washer pumping to soak them is about the only thing I can think of that you can get away with.
Of course, dumping chicken feathers is legal, but everything else I can think of will land me in jail.
Anyone know of anything that is really effective, but not going to cause a traffic crash and pile up?

Smallest electric car... was advertised as being able to fit in your doghouse
Idea of the day... parking lots with parking reserved for combat wounded
Some parking lots have pregnant mother parking... it's not enforced by police, but it's marked with pink signs. I'm fully opposed to this nonsense. Preganancy isn't a disability, it's not even debilitating.
Most parking lots have reserved parking spots close to a business's front door for anyone with a DMV recognized disability, normally related to walking problems.
But I just heard the concept of getting the state or nation to set aside parking for military wounded in combat... I think that is a damn good idea. About time too.

Worst prices in town, on Coronado Island in San Diego Bay... (rich neighborhood, plus only 2 or 3 gas stations, and 10 minutes from the nearest mainland gas station)
I love tow trucks. I love COEs (cab over engine)... and streamlined anything are cool.. so the streamlined COE tow trucks are pretty much the peak of the genre
