In the real world, we're too often deemed not worthy of fictional gadgets. None of us are getting a proton pack or a flux capacitor any time soon. But if you're looking for a car roof-mounted licorice dispenser like the one featured in “Wayne's World,” that can be arranged.Candy Phelps, a web designer based in Madison, Wisconsin, wanted that licorice dispenser as soon as she saw it in the 1992 movie. But no one was selling it, which was both bogus and sad. More than 30 years later, she's finally filled that empty space in the market with a real-world version of the contraption, which she sells online through her company called Motormouth.
Talk of winter vehicle maintenance & East Coast temperatures caused a long time listener to call from Montana and tell the boys what REAL cold weather is like. Both Ray & Chris are having trouble with the windshield washers in their Mazda's, and Ray's powder coated tow-tabs are all the rage as a "Day 2" addition. He'll also be adding electric AC cooling fans to his GTO this year. Solar power talk brings up the thought for a great show guest next week....stay tuned.

The boys were all set for a rousing hour of conversation with one of their favorite P.R. and Advertising men, Marty Schorr, formerly of Motion Performance, when technical difficulties struck. Having Billy G. in the meeting kept the show alive, and Marty was eventually able to join in and talk about his upcoming "Team Zora" Motorsports Corvette reunion to be held in Italy next year.
