Lmao. Yeah let him do what he wants, I think it'll be cool.
And chuck norris cant sign your dash, if he pulls a roundhouse, the only trace of him you'll have in your car is an 8" HOLE in your dashboard.

And Badass, I feel like we're the only ones awake right now at 4AM..

Fyi...I tried to preserve Scotts signature under the hood and the clear destroyed the signature. After they sign with the sharpie, I would find some matte finish clear vinyl and cover it or just leave it - do not try to armorall or any other protectant as they will probably damage the sigs.

I'm going to get a silver paint pen.

It's an Indy thing. You'd have to live here to understand how we cherish our Indy racing heros..... These brothers lost their dad at the track, and they both went on to race anyway....

Man, that is real "Love for the game"! That is a very influential story as well. I wish we had racing around here, the most we get is dirt track....red neck dirt track.
Man, I am allways up late! Just got off work!

I bought both the Sharpie paint pen and a Krylon one. I think I'll use the Sharpie Paint Pen.

I'll be taking high quality video and photos.

Appointment is for 10am this Sunday morning.

To each their own; and they are his friends, not ours. I for one value my friends and if they were hardcore racers I'd let 'em sign my car

I'm surprised nobody has guessed.... I hope to have pictures up tomorrow night and video on YouTube. I went to the Indy 500 photo store and got a 16x20 photo to get signed too.... I'm close friends with one brother, but the other brother I've met a few times is more famous.... 21 starts in the Indy 500!

Looks pretty good man. Nice idea and with meaning too. Originally when reading this I thought it was going to e a bunch of backyard shed drinking buddies signing a dash. Seeing as there is special meaning, a regional culture, and a famous side to it I like it

Thank you, nice reply.

Here is a picture of them with me, and my daughter who is turning 6 at the end of the month, showing off that she has lost 5 teeth.

Behind us is their brother's (Tony Bettenhausen Jr) Jeep he kept at his vacation home in Canada. He died in a plane crash in 2000.

I have a lot of video of them telling race stories and stuff.... it was a fun trip.
