24 hrs of Lemons

[Burt88]

That's right, Lemons. I am participating in my first ever road course race in Kershaw SC at the Carolina Motorsports park. South of Charlotte. If anyone has an interest to come see the spectacle of low budget jalopy race cars screaming around a track and driven by totally inexperienced people with no regard for their own safety then c'mon. Race is Saturday and Sunday. Call me if you show up nine one 0- three nine one- 11 eighty three. Here's a link to an article about it. http://caranddriver.com/lemons

so what are you racing and are you busy painting it yellow yet ?

 

[JohnVee]

Good luck. More info on your ride, please. I've been to that track for kart races. A girl in a fast kart smacked a deer that walked on the track a few years ago and it killed her. More safety stuff in a car than a kart, but be careful.

My team has a mid nineties nissan 240sx. We painted it with chalkboard paint so we could draw all over it. Our team name is Jacks Wild Aces Walkin'

My old vice prez (proinv) was racing lemons. They had an older T-bird if I recal.
Said it was a lot of fun.
