Reader's Rides - September 2007

<dt>Reader's Rides - September 2007
<p>Much like my first sexual experience, summer's come and gone before I knew what happened. Well, not really. Not that I hit a homerun my first time out to bat-owls have taken longer licking Tootsie Pops-but because while I'm writing this, it's still early June and summer just got crackin'. But that's the curse of being a journalist. We have to be able to predict the future (if reading holidays off my wall calendar qualifies as precognition).</p><p>Regardless, by the time you read this, summer should be winding down. The sun's setting earlier, bikinis are heading south for the winter, school's starting and parking lots nationwide will be that much emptier on weeknights. And what will you have to show for your three months of heated debauchery? Besides a credit card bill full of late night food excursions (Waffle House or Denny's, anyone?), not much.</p><p>Well, like Donald Trump, I'm all about giving second chances. I want to give you readers a chance to show something besides an enlarged gut. Polish up your filthy ride, take some pics, compile a list of info (look below) and send your submissions to: Readers' Rides (readersrides@superstreetonline.com; or to Super Street, Attn: Readers' Rides, 6420 Wilshire Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90048).</p><p>If you're lucky, you'll score a prize and, unlike my cherry-popping experience, glory lasting an entire month.</p><p>This month, we have a special estrogen-edition of readers' rides. These fine females not only drive way cooler cars than you, but they got off their luscious booties to pimp-slap you and your ride. Unless you plan on coat-checking your car keys indefinitely, get your lazy ass up. Summer's running out.</p><p>The maidenly ride of this month belongs to Vanessa Washinko, who had the balls, er, boobs to submit a picture of her fine self along with her ride. Vanessa won a set of harnesses from Sparco (www.sparcousa.com) for her efforts.</p><p>Carter's Ride of the Month
