24 Hours of LeMons!! LOOKING FOR RACERS IN CT, NY, MA!
The 24 Hours of LeMons, the national endurance racing series for $500 cars, makes its only '09 New England stop on 11-12 July at Stafford Speedway in Connecticut. Over two days of racing, teams take on exploding gaskets, fried alternators, and wild on-track action in order to take home glorious cash prizes—paid out in canvas sacks of nickels. Last year, a rusty Mazda took home the top prize--this year, it could be you!
Hopeful and/or desperate teams need to file their online applications by midnight Saturday, May 2nd. Accepted teams will be notified the following Monday; rejected teams should feel a wave of relief around Tuesday. http://www.24hoursoflemons.com/registration/
Entry forms, prices, photos and rules can all be found on http://www.24hoursoflemons.com. For those who would rather witness the spectacle from a safe distance--and we can't blame you if you do--all-access pit passes can also be found at http://www.24hoursoflemons.com. We'll see you there!

I'm seriously considering this. I've been intrigued since I first read about it in Car & Driver a while back.
The RX7 cost me exactly $500 when I bought it. If I reinstalled the original struts and sway bars, it would qualify.
I need a team...Who's wants in? This isn't a commitment yet, just putting feelers out.

They can crush your car for no reason. And some other bizzare rules... Otherwise,I'd do it.
It's not what you drive, it's how you drive. "Lap times matter"

Thanks Mick. Ryan, they specifically mention a "No whiners" rule, so we'd have to get around that somehow.
