I have found several places where people race creepers, but it is always human powered. My idea is to put chainsaw or weed whacker sized gasoline engines on a creeper and race them. The racers would have to race face up and head first for added difficulty.

But they'd have mirrors so they can see...right?!? |
|
| |
Isn't this just powered luge? |
|
| |
Creeper? What is a "creeper"? |
|
| |
...and I thought this was some kind of novelty sex toy, very disappionted! You forgot the "no helmet" rule; otherwise the head first woudn't make sense. Racing face up would require a mirror and/or a good memory of the track. Which one/two is it? |
|
| |
You could race under moving SUV's. |
|
| |
The racers would wear helmets. The head first is so they have to use their memory of the track to navigate. |
|

//Isn't this just powered luge?// Other than the fact that the lugers use runners, go down a curved track, race on ice, and race feet first. |

I have to know what that would be. Is there a sexual connotation to "creeper" that I don't know about? |
|
| |
[contracts], I think [Laughs Last] was referring to the people that didn't know that a creeper was. |
|
| |
Not knowing something is very normal. Complaining about your own ignorance strikes me as an unusual turn of events, considering that the world’s best research tools are right at your fingertips. |

I trust that [DrCurry] prefers for less common terms to be explained by the author, to shift more of the burden of explaining an idea onto the author. [Vernon] is a good example of a baker who does this. |

Sorry I meant powered street luge |

From what I can see, in the UK a creeper is a one-piece outfit for a baby, a shoe with a really thick sole, or a flat wheeled tray that a mechanic lies on to slide under a car? |
|
| |
I found at least two UK tool sites that list the item in question as a car creeper, so I'm confused about the confusion. |
|
| |
<Ingerlaand!>Never heard of a creeper or car creeper.</Ingerlaand!> |

This sounds suitably insane and Manly, you need an engine bigger than one from a weed whacker to really appeal to the extreme sports nut. + |
