It's the last day of 2009 and a fine time for the year in review. Get ready for lots of links, too.

The Caption Contest has become the most popular feature of the blog. I think this pic was my favorite.

We found a ton of cool and crazy rides on eBay this year. I really loved this chopped Duster.

We always go all out at SEMA and this year was no exception. And as usual, you guys helped us pick the best rides of the show.

Since we merged with StreetFire, we've had a bunch of great video in the blog (John will post his ten favorite StreetFire videos tomorrow). Me? I'm torn between the Ram SRT-10 burnout gone wrong and the Ken Block spoof.

We covered the heck out of Formula D this year. I made it to the Seattle stop and had a great time. This 240SX blew me away (best paint of 2009?). Here are the walk-around videos I shot in the pits.

I think the Fox body with the leaf blower supercharger was the single most hilarious thing in the blog this year.

VWVortex is always a great source for material. The Rabbit with too much camber killed me. So did this Vette.

Will rusty hoods continue to be popular in 2010? How about stretching tires?

Jim Brennan really went beyond the call of duty with his Obscure Muscle Car Parking Lot series. I think the 1970-71 Plymouth Sport Fury GT was my favorite, but I'm biased.

After the whole cash for clunkers debacle, it was refreshing to read Chris Trout's post The Value of a Beater. We all really enjoyed Steve Neil's The Forgotten Man of Chiba's Shop. And David Belau's tale of the possessed Dart was cool and creepy. Where else could you read a story like that?
