If you don't know what it is, at least check out the
site and familiarize yourself. You buy a total piece of shit car for $500 or less, fix it up, still for that same $500 or less, then race the hell out of it. A bunch of tatted out hoodlums cheer you on as your shitbox tries not to explode, then you drink lots of alchohol. Sound good? It is. Several friends of mine ran the last Lemons at Thunderhill and dug on it. I missed it (again). After the death at Altamont last year, I didn't know if enthusiasm would still be high. One of the event organizers is a buddy and at our last drinking event, he told me they are getting numbers of entries that are many times over what is allowed to participate. Check out the events page on the site and definately at least spectate at an event near you. Also, check out Dave Coleman's shitbox Miata with turbo blocking driver view from the last run
HERE. Dave is an awesome guy with a severe shitbox racing habit (if you haven't read his articles in the late great Sport Compact Car Magazine).
