    It started with:

    "It's just the '05 car,"

    now it's universal to any past vehicle. Except '06.

    Oh, and "Watch the wings!"

    "I just don't understand" - A favorite from last years team leader.

    "I don't f*cking care, just get it done" - From this years team leader.

    "WIRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR...." - Said in varying pitches as I try to explain the sounds our cnc made as it cut the hubs, uprights, diff casing or whatever else I had on the cnc the day before

    "That's some Baja engineering right there" - When it just needs to get done.

    "It's been all Formula'd up" - Said by the Baja team when something just doesn't quite work the way it came out of the package.

    "We had to Baja it up" - Said by the Baja team when they take something off the formula car, use it and break it, and then have to fix it at their competition. (This one was used this week; I still can't figure out how you break a balance bar on a 425 lb car on off road tires that had no problem locking up all four on a 580 lb car with racing slicks )
