Hey guys its been a while!
I have to be breif, I will be racing at the 24 hours of Lemons @ Sears Point on the 6th and 7th of March.
I will post more info about it on my next post. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/cool.gif[/img]
Ok here is the scoop.
Here is the link to the web site.

I will NOT be racing a Porsche (yet) this year. Instead I will be racing a Honda Civic on another persons team.
This race should be pretty insane considering Sears Points layout and the crappyness of the majority of the cars.
If you don't know what the 24hours of lemons is, its a race for cars valued at $500 and less.
Once you have a car you have to pick a theme and dress the car up.
Then over two days you run the car, avoiding PIT manuvers and the random fliped car.
On day 2, roughly 2/3 through the race the "peoples curse" is choosen and is destroyed on the spot. (usually buy heavy equipment)

The winning team wins $5,000 in nickles.
Any surviving cars are given a new cash value and can be fixed up/ upgraded for the next race. Which results in Volvo's with V8's and VW Corrodos with dual engines. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.gif[/img]
I highly recommend anyone with nothing to do that weekend to come on down.
Tickets are $20 for one day and $30 for 2 days.
We ran a 944 in the Reno LeMons race last year, and are fielding a 5-car effort this year in the Denver one. It's loads of fun.
Wow.
The track was awesome
The competitors were awesome
The car was awesome
If you have never the 24hours of lemons you are missing out. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/cool.gif[/img]
Only one broken neck too. Basically if you drive on the DC Capitol Beltway you are prepared for Lemons.
