Strangely, amazingly, this is a theme that has never yet been done in LeMons. At least not as far as BS Judge Murilee Martin remembers, and he’s covered 23 of the 26 races. In other words, if it has been done, it was done so poorly as to not be memorable. That won’t be a problem for us.

It’s a natural theme, since we have 2 drivers who are 6′4″ or taller; we’ve already been accused of running a “clown car,” so we’re going to go with that theme. I’m thinking we will do the car in a bright base yellow color with blue, red, and white polka dots. Maybe paint a big Sad Clown on the hood? I’d love to find a big red Bozo wig for the roof. Maybe put a red bouncy ball on the front as the nose. The costumes will be easy and the judges and assembled crowd will eat it up. We’re clowns anyway, we might as well dress the part. You have ideas? Post ‘em up in the comment area!
