CHEAP event....

[KeithTurk]

Rob Kinnan and I just did the 24hrs of LeMons... if you guys haven't heard of this.... you take a 500 dollar car and race it against 43 of your closest friends on a closed course... for yep... 24 hrs... our car had 5 drivers and was put together by a guy up in Chicago... Lincoln mk something ...

The smiles per dollar factor was HUGE... We need to come up with an event like this that we can run all over the country and cover here....

You guys have any thoughts? Could we do this drag racing?

Re: CHEAP event....

Since the organizers got to pick what they thought your car was worth..... yep... those sonny Leonard Valve covers cost... say 400 bucks... so they charged 10 bucks a lap and they were worth -40 laps... Perfect...

Re: CHEAP event....

Just so the rest of you know. We already have our 24 hours of Lemons car. BIG BIG Mopar. Going to rule all. You'll see it come together on the site and surely be jealous. Or sympathetic. Either way is cool with us.

Rally! There are no rally events in the US, (well, hardly) and if there was some cheap ones... that crazies in trucks could attend too...

Re: CHEAP event....

Dude, there are RallyCross and RallySprint events everywhere. Check local SCCA and NASA clubs. We're trying to decide if we'll Rally our 5.0 Mustang or our Duster first.

For the duster you could use the old scott harvey templetes and instructions from the old DC manuals.

I'm voting for the Duster.

rallyX is extremely hard in a rear wheel drive car. Take this fine specimine. A '98 Z28 with a monster cam, makes about 365rwhp with stocker 98 junk heads

Re: CHEAP event....

Stupid question:

Are trucks/SUVs allowed to compete?
