24 Hours Of LeMons
24 Hours of Lemons, March 26-27 2011, Infineon Raceway.
Epic. Winning. Totally frickin’ amazing. Overflowing with awesome. These are some of the phrases I caught myself saying over and over again as I witnessed my first 24 Hours of Lemons this past weekend at Infineon Raceway. Never in my wildest dreams would I have thought that cars worth $500 or less could be so legendary.
Throughout the race it was easy to see some teams really went above and beyond doing big things (that’s what she said) when it came to setting a theme for their car. Standouts included the Back to the Future car (sorry, no DeLorean) equipped with the pole and hook used to send Marty back to the future, a VW Rabbit with a top hat on the roof of the car that, when the brakes were used, had a pair of rabbits that would pop out of the hat, a 1 of 1 Molvo aka a Mazda Miata fabricated within an old Volvo station wagon, and the crown jewel of them all, a Ferrari 250 GTO replica.
I think the best part of the entire race though, were the pits. Hearing the banging of sledgehammers straightening out a fender, the staunch smell of gasoline, reciprocating saws going to town on the undercarriage, and what I thought best epitomized the whole 24 Hours of Lemons experience, a midrace engine swap. The people were funny, posed for pictures and gave their insight as to what they think is the key to victory (don’t be fooled by the shenanigans, racing is serious bidness!).
Though this was indeed my first Lemons, it certainly, without a doubt, will not be my last. Watch out for team CarGods at the August race!
