So after all this talk for so many years, I am finally going to shut up and race.
after getting permission from the boss (you married guys understand) i sent out a few emails looking for an open seat in any of the several upcoming LeMons/Chumpcar races. one of the teams got back to me today, and i am pretty well signed up to run on 8-9 May at Buttonwillow Motorsports Park in Northern CA. the team is running 2 cars, so i will be driving in either a well used CRX, or a new to the circuit Civic. As you may expect, i am absolutely thrilled. I will provide pics and report after the race. assuming i come down from the adrenaline high.
for those of you who dont know about LeMons, it is an endurance racing series where the value of the car can not exceed $500. because it is run by the guys from Jalopnik, often there are themes, and shenanigans aplenty.
