I got the following ideas for a 2007 car campaign:

1: The 10 greatest sportscars ever.
http://www.discoverychannel.co.uk/greatest_ever/sports_cars/index.shtml,

Allthoug I would accept all corvettes and 911's. Main problem: i do not know of any kit for the McLaren F1

2: Trafficlight duels: you will be building against another member: The goal: to build an exotic, tuner or muscle car that you think will be faster than your opponent's one ( think The fast and the furious Toyota Supra vs Ferrari testarossa )

3: On 2 wheels again ( this time civillian only ): Build a motorcycle, scooter or bycicle

4: King of the road: build a massive rig/ truck/ semi.. whatever you call it.

What are your thoughts ?

I love'em all - I would be quickest to join 2 wheels and then I like the trafficlight dual next.

I like the truck concept. Build a semi truck and trailer combination.

As an old wornout biker, I could squeeze in a two wheeler. :-)
I also guess I could do something besides an olive drab truck.

I would love to do another "Biker Build Off" It'll give me another chance to scratch out a second chopper.

All sound good, but I'm partial to #4 - Truck/Semi-Truck combinations.

P.S. Joe - I haven't forgotten 'bout you - I've just been busy on multiple projects at work lately...
