24 Hours of Lemons at Thunderhill
Is anyone else going/driving in the 24 Hours of Lemons Race this weekend at Thunderhill Raceway?
We'll be there driving the "BRE" 72' Ratsun 240Z.

What a great weekend.
We held 7th or 8th out of 121 cars for most of the weekend, dipped into 6th for a brief bit, then fell back to 11th after some issues in the 16th hour. Pics to come.

Man looked like a cool project car, what was the budget? I know these races have a super low budget requirement.

$500 for the car and associated parts.
Unlimited for safety items, tools, fuel jugs, driver's gear, electronics, wheels, and tires.

We make some changes and prep it for the event at Buttonwillow in December!
Maybe track it a few times between then and now as well.
