You mean Job or Drag Racing?

 

[79TurboCutlass]

Car title or a termination of employment notice is all I know of.

I should've specified that my question was regarding drag racing...oops!...Sorry!

A pink slip is your ownership.Drag race for pink slips= loser loses ownership to his car.I guess back in the day your ownership was pink in colour.Either that,or you're drag racing for women's pink lingerie,lol Maybe that's how the French Canadians do it Claude,lol Dave

Yep, "pinks" is another name for the title. Not something I'd ever race against unless I was racing a really ****ty car I didn't care if I lost and the other party had a really nice high dollar car.

The "pink slip" has come a long way from when Henry Ford dreamed up a way to evaluate his assembly line employees. Each worker had a cubbyhole where at the end of the workday, a manager would place a piece of colored paper. A white piece of paper meant their work was acceptable, a pink one meant the boot.

Somehow the title of a car took on the same idea meaning to boot the car
