We're not ashamed to admit it: Eliza Dushku is a stranger to us. Not just in the sense that we've never met her -- though we might've and didn't know it -- but also in the sense that we don't know much about her body of work. Call us crazy or lazy or all of the above, but Joss Whedon sagas like the ones Dushku stars in seem like big ol' Percocet daiquiris, garnished with a dusting of grade-A Malaysian melatonin. Noah's Ark: The New Beginning isn't winning her any points, either.

And yet, our opinion of Ms. Dushku may be changing. On Wednesday, Dushku not only tweeted that she'd put the tires from her 2010 Toyota Prius tires up for sale on eBay (weird, yes, but it's for charity, which is awesome), but she also mentioned that she'd replaced them with all-terrains.

Now, it's entirely possible that Dushku means something other than "all-terrain", but since it's Friday, we're going to give her the benefit of the doubt. And so, we hereby challenge Eliza to a mud-slinging road rally on the abandoned high school football field of her choice. It'll be her Prius vs. our 1982 Chrysler Cordoba, which we've tricked out with Super Swamper Boggers and classic Yosemite Sam mudflaps. To quote one of Dushku's previous flicks: BRING IT ON.
