• 16px Passes on newness and length. Hook is accurately referenced to Hot Rod Magazine which, for the topic, is RS. Good to go. LavaBaron (talk) 22:39, 6 September 2015 (UTC)

16px Template:Ping, the hook sounds like the car was sending him trophies. I know from the article the hook is referring to the awards won by the Ala Kart (custom car), but your article is not clear on it being his car. Reading the car's article, it appears the construction was a three-man job, with Blackie Gejeian and Richard Peters building the chassis, but George Barris built the body. Both articles say that the car name came about from George Barris "opening a menu", but that's oddly worded. So George Barris opened a menu. And then what happened? Anyway, there needs to be a clearer hook that is stated and sourced in the article. — Maile (talk) 23:59, 8 September 2015 (UTC)
