The garage story

A made-up backstory for a real DGM racer.

Clint Westglass could hold a serious stare for hours. The Ford looked ready for any showdown, right up to the moment a loose screw rattled in the chassis.

A long spell on the workbench taught Clint to ask for help. Pride could not tighten that screw. A friend with the right tool could. The stare stayed. So did the friend.

“I gave that loose screw my best hard stare. Didn't budge. Could you pass the screwdriver and pretend you didn't see that?”
