It doesn't get any better then this...

I was on 287 in the Bridgewater area yesterday and I rolled up on a boxy lil ragtop that I couldn't place at first. Then I realized it was a YUGO!!! And a YUGO RAGTOP ta boot! The bugger was in mint shape, and the guy driving it looked like Jim Carrey. Lol. I gave him a thumbs up and he smiled and waved back. I could just imagine him saying "WELL ALLLLLRIGHTY THEN!"

I was in the midst of driving, which means no personal devices in my hands to take my attention away from driving. But believe you, me; if he had pulled in anywhere with in my sight I would've had picts.

I remember years ago seeing a yugo at the track at etown. The guy driving it had a cowboy hat on, seemed like a real character. I had to go over and ask him why a yugo? He said he just loved hot rodding and wanted to try something different.

I remember that dude. He was a regular at Etown. The Yugo was comparable to some Fiats so the dude actually had some legit Fiat speed parts on the Yugo. IIRC he called the car "Underdog."
