OSS-Cat = Rhesus monkeys?
Let me start by saying I love to open Pandora's box...as long as Pandora is a swimsuit model! 
I am considering starting an OSS Cat team with a rhesus monkey as a driver. My question is , how do you folks feel about this? Let me explain that he, the monkey, whose name is Ace, has three years experience in Outlaw class 48 where he raced unnoticed in a triple engined Fountain called "Bananas in my Dreams". He won three SBI National and World championships...uncontested......during that time...although he has yet to complete more than one lap in an event.
His new throttleman , Lance Wannabe, a well known champion with almost 4 weeks of experience, said, after testing with Ace: "He makes more sense than anyone else I ever drove with"....and then was reminded that the monkey had chewed through his headset wires before the test session.
I am also reminded of Steve David's quote that "A monkey could have driven and won with the Bud for the past decade"
Please feel free to air your opinions on this hot topic. In the meantime I'm off to Chiquita Banana's headquarters to inquire about sponsorship.
T2x.................. I love marketing majors, political correctness and Corporate America

Is'nt it the Chinese year of the monkey? Your team could end up being the top bananas again. Hope your able to find a few sponsors to SPLIT the bill.

Re: OSS-Cat = Rhesus monkeys?
Sounds like your monkey is over qualified for the position. He should probably stick with driving unlimited hydroplanes.

Nah, since it's just a monkey, perhaps T2X will put him in a west coast cat.
