Heard this the other day, anyone add to it?
The Ferrari Formula 1 Team fired their entire pit crew last month.
The announcement followed Ferrari's decision to abide by extreme pressure from world governments that the racing industry hire more minorities. As a result, 12 youths from south-central Los Angeles were now an essential part of the famous Formula 1 Team. The decision to hire them was brought on by a recent documentary on how unemployed youths from the Watts area were able to remove a set of wheels in less than 6 seconds with just a tire iron and screwdriver, whereas Ferrari's existing crew could only do it in 8 seconds with a million dollars worth of high tech equipment.
It was thought to be an excellent, yet bold move, by the Ferrari management. As most races are won and lost in the pits, Ferrari would have an advantage over every team. However....Ferrari got more than they bargained for. At the crew's first practice session, not only were the Watts pit crew able to change the tires in under 6 seconds, but within 12 seconds they had re-sprayed, re-badged, and sold the vehicle to the Williams team for 2 six-packs of Colt 45, a day's supply of crack and photos of Queen Latifah in the shower.

They should have used the Pompey crew
The Pompey crew would laugh at 12 seconds
They could do you a flip coat of paint and new seats as extras in 10 at the most, only problem is that they would nick it back within a week and resell it to the cash bidder
