Title: Race tote
KKAngel9 - October 16, 2006 07:51 AM (GMT)
I don't know how many of you remember the tote I did for my Chicago race weekend but that one is not in use anymore due in part to a broken strap. Instead of attempting to fix it, I am working on recreating it in a way to take it with me to Martinsville and Atlanta & Memphis. I recreated the Kasey side with additions such as his last two wins and a couple other things. I need to figure out what to do with the other side though. Last time, I had our 3 EMS boys listed with the whole Ultimate Chargers slogan and everything. I am thinking about maybe listing the names of drivers I support on the other side and maybe like leaving room so that if I meet drivers when I have the bag with me, they could sign by their name. That is really the only idea that I have though. Anyone have any suggestions for me?
And btw, here is what the Kasey side of the tote looks like now:

That picture doesn't do it accurate justice though because the bag didn't photograph well due in part to the surface that it is laying on.

SO CUTE!
I'd leave the other side just to have drivers sign.......
and you def have to make Kasey sign that side and tell him you want to add some more race wins to it this year LOL
and you want to make a new one when he wins the Cup

I agree with Christy! Get drivers to sign one side, and have Kasey sign it, too! And tell him we're shooting for 9 in the 9! (That would be 9 wins. Yes. I am insane.)

Come on! We just need 3 of the last 5! That's not THAT crazy. Texas, Atlanta, and take your pick!

I'm with everyone else. leave the other side and get drivers to sign it. Except Kasey...make him sign the Kasey side. :)
Carrie, I'm loving the "9 in the 9!" and I agree, it's not that overly crazy at all.

Aww thanks guys! I re-did that last night actually and it didn't take me all that long. Thanks for your advice everyone! Should I put the names of the drivers I support as well or just leave it completely blank?
And if I meet Kasey, he will definitely have to sign the Kasey side. Hehe. And I can't wait to see what Kasey's reaction would be if I told him those things. :)

that is awesome! gotta love being crafty.
putting the drivers names on the other side would be cool, especially since you want signatures, having their sig by their name or number (whatever you put)would be cool.

That's awesome!
And you should definitely get the drivers to sign it!

If I put something on the other side, it will definitely be names rather than numbers since some of the drivers I support besides Kasey have moved or will be moving to different cars after this season.

9 would be good........I think they have a shot at 10
he can win Martinsville and he def can win Atlanta, Texas and Homestead
Phoenix is probably their worst track left and they could pull it off there too
(yes stats would probably say Martinsville is their worst, but Kasey had a Top 3 car at Martinsville in the spring until the engine blew....so they run well at Martinsville and he nearly got his first win at Martinsville in 05 on his birthday)

Yeah I'm thinking 9 in the 9 has a better ring to it. And it's really feasible, too.
