Here in Seaside, we have a very large Hispanic population. It has increased in great numbers the past 10 years.

Now, put the above info aside for a moment, and follow this next thought.

You know those windshield banners that are available that say, "Powered By Ford" or Honda, or whatever vehicle a person may be driving? Well, there's an OK looking Fox body Mustang, black in color, with the same Cervini's hood on the car as I have on Renee's GT.

Now, remember the first paragraph? Okay, good, because this Mustang is always parked in a neighborhood that is predominantly Hispanic, and is driven by a male Hispanic in his 20's.

This guy has one of those windshield banners on his Mustang. But his a bit different. It's very original. His banner reads:

"Powered By Bean Burrito's"

Does he actually have an apostrophe in Burritos? I never understood why people did that.

Anyway, good story. I've seen some very entertaining windshield banners...

I wish i could find that picture i took at Bakersfield....a Civic parked next to a plain white trailer. Civic is adorned with dozens of references to racing, stickers on the fenders, windshield and rear window shout out RACE CAR everywhere... it belonged to somebody at a concession booth. Not a racer.

Inside the plain trailer is a fuel dragster... unlettered! Sometimes you don't need to spell it out to anyone
