    Latest News:

  • We have good news and bad news.

    The Bad News: Because of unintended delays it looks like we have missed the travel window for this year :-(

    The Good News: We have already raised $508.25 for DVT awareness and the vehicle isn't even finished! :-)
    We need:

  1. A Videographer. We are hoping to convince Ford to front us a vehicle that a film crew can use as the chase car. Or perhaps you would like to supply our chase vehicle and be the driver.
  2. Fibreglass company (Fiberglass). If you own a fibreglass company and would like to help create the banana skin please contact us.
