Halfbaked! [DrBob, Oct 10 2001, last modified Oct 05 2004]

       You caused me a terrible moment of anxiety for a moment there, UB. I had just read your comment where you put it previously and thought "Aha! I know a good link for that." Bugger me, by the time I'd put the link up, the comment had vanished. Very sneaky!
I will, of course, be riding the Beer Scooter in this competition.

       The Croissant races! (or maybe as a spin off.. "Stop the Fishbone!")
—The_Englishman_Abroad, Oct 10 2001
   

       Correct sir, except the paintball gun thing. Replace that with a spiked bat and you got a winner.
—AfroAssault, Oct 10 2001
   

       I can just see blissmiss using a candy-powered bumper car, armed with homing geese and exoset pillows.
oh I almost forgot the party pants and cheesy poofs in the hair....
—The_Englishman_Abroad, Oct 10 2001
   

       Yes, DrBob, not dissimilar to wacky racers.   

       Vernon: WTF is that?
—UnaBubba, Oct 10 2001
   

       My car will have <drumroll> "Inter-Car Communication" (Possibly the first idea I ever posted here. <old codger>Ah! Those were the days...</old codger>).

       Super-Halfbakery-Kart!   

       Then jutta could be that thing flying around on the cloud who starts the races!

       Can I enter my dog in his Doggie Kite?
—beauxeault, Oct 11 2001
   

       Go for it. It's an unlimited class.
—UnaBubba, Oct 11 2001
   

       <laughs!> Do I get a couple cans of beans for propulsion?
—StarChaser, Oct 11 2001
   

       //unlimited class//
Great! I'll go for the maglev rocket boots - terrible cornering but you should see the straight line speed.
—st3f, Oct 11 2001
   

       St Threef, I once posted them as an idea and got my ass bit off by StarChaser. If you can get them through homologation, you can run 'em.
—UnaBubba, Oct 11 2001
   

       <ptoo!> Want it back?   

       Considering that I posted much the same thing, are you sure it was me? I can't find it now...
—StarChaser, Oct 13 2001
   

       OK. Must admit I was sort of hoping for halfbakery in mathematical notation. A place to bake new formulas for implementation in social and material technologies.
—LoriZ, Oct 28 2001
   

       You want practical? Try a URL which ends in .edu .
—UnaBubba, Oct 28 2001
   

       I'll be driving my Anti-Lemon hovercar complete with high beam attitude readjustment device, speed adjusted steering, noise-canceling stereo, emergency flares and bass-seeking missiles (not the time delay variety), drinking coffee from my Bean Bag mug.   

       Watch out for my 'drivers sign language'.
—phoenix, Nov 19 2001
   

       Unconventional I'll admit, but I'd like either an Orb-it or a circus cannon (with jousting pole to knock over passing cars).
