(Janey Wong)
Every summer, Portlanders trudge up the side of Mt. Tabor to watch full-grown, costumed adults zoom down the extinct volcano in homemade cars bedecked like a cup of noodles, Mater from Cars, logs, and other aerodynamic (eh, questionable) designs. While crowd favorites earn thunderous cheers, prizes are dished out for categories like best engineering, "shit talker," and lifetime achievement.
