I had entered a drawing to purchase a S2000 at MSRP. A week befor the drawing, I listed my Del Sol "for sale" in the newspaper. On the day of the drawing, no one had even called on my Del Sol. That afternoon, the dealership that was holding the drawing called. I had been first picked out of 2 dozen entries. About an hour later, someone came and test drove my Del Sol. They bought it that day. Just seemed like Fate (F8): S2K-F8

An acquaintance, Jim, in college started calling me this in '79. My real name is Silvio and Sylvester Stallone was very popular back then... Funny thing is that I hadn't seen Jim since we graduated; until he bought the condo above me this summer!

Yo!

My name is Ted, so in college my friends called me either Tedly or Tedster as a nickname. Since the S2000 is a roadster, I figured Tedster was more appropriate.

I wanted to put my ethnicity, French Indian, on my license plate and this is what I came up with.

I used RayS on h-a.net, but this way if someone saw my car on the road, they would know who it was.

Clovis, as in Clovis, NM. This is where I finally located my S2000 for 32K flat. Basically this place/dealer was paradise.

An old AOL handle I used to have WAY back (About 4-5 years). I used to conjure up races in a local chat room. One day, the subject came up about weed. I have a strong dislike for drugs, so I used to have this in my profile.

"Race me? I'll leave you in my vapor, holding onto your papers. "

It was funny at the time, I guess you had to be there. The handle "vapor" was applied, then lengthened to VaporTrail shortly before I got sick of AOL chatrooms. I just thought I'd bring it back. At least it's unique, even if the story is a little bland.
