To do

  • Clean car
  • Round up performers for the skit
  • Acquire help to get the lights, radio/walkie-talkie, etc working.
  • Figure out how the smoke and sound is going to work for the skit.
  • Define budget
  • Shop
  • Decorate car and helmet

Ideas

  • Sound/music
  • Parachute (Chassis/brake/steering group?)
  • Pyrotechnics
  • Working lights or reflectors
  • Something pops out of the hood
  • Stickers/decals
  • 3D printed keeper (hood ornament?)
  • Working buttons, levers, and doodads
    • Example: CB Radio talks to the pit crew
  • Cushion for the seat and seat back
  • Plug or cap-off gas tank for extra name space
  • Native American theme
    • Sticks, feathers, and other pieces of nature
    • Leather and beads
    • Tomahawk
    • Animal horns and/or bones on the hood
    • Driver w/ a head dress or mohawk, maybe dressed in native garb
  • Animal print

Skit

  • "Power" dance or "Race" dance (instead of a rain dance)
  • People dance around the car, then the hood pops and some sort of spirit comes out (with smoke)
  • Maybe the spirit should talk?
  • Then the car revs and the lights flash
