Alfa owners to unite for Global Warming.

Post by Fernando »

Watching the news on TV a while back,saw some bloke flying kites for World Peace. :shock:

This gave me a great idea.Lets try and organise the biggest one day drive event across the world for Alfa owners and leave our carbon footprint. :D

Since this idea is in it's infacy your ideas and thoughts,would be welcome as I am sure this could be an historical event. :?:

Maybe if we all burn rubber at the same time we create a shielding layer of smoke that will reflect the rays of the sun back into space?

Mats your onto my way of thinking. :D

Seriously could you just imagine the whole lot of us around the globe synchronising such a mamoth wheelspin ? Were bound to get a mention...and get Alfa some great publicity :twisted:

or really, really bad publicity. The press can always angle it like they want and I know which way it would be angled here... :x

Sounds pretty risky. Not only could we damage the Earths delicate ecosystem with our exhaust, a syncronized world wide tire spinning event could alter the earth's rotation.

Altering the earths normal spin could be done by confining this to all stock 2 and 2.5 litre Alfa's with all others just joining in with synchronized revving to contribute to the cultural acoustic enhancement of our fellow human beings. :D Those poor souls denied the aural pleasures of one of the great Italian contributions to the advancement of mankind.... :twisted:

My carbon footprint with a 3.6 with no Cat's must be just amazing. :twisted:
