Yeah, so…sorry to leave so many of you hanging when it comes to LeMons coverage. Turns out, there’s not really time to drive, wrench like crazy and blog an event. No doubt you’ve been keeping up with Judge Martin’s coverage, so hopefully you haven’t been completely in the dark. We’ve got plenty of pictures and some in-car footage that we’ll treat you to this week. Hit the jump for a quick summary and some shots of the Uberbird…
Saturday went relatively smoothly for Der Uberbird, with only a leaking tranny cooler hose and a self-disassembling exhaust to deal with. Sunday started well, but a series of mechanical woes, a not-so-minor contact event and a few somewhat mysterious black flags slowed our roll considerably. We peaked in the low-60s, place-wise, but finished something like 87th by the time the shards of guibo dust settled.
Summaries from everything else: The Pandamonium Racing e30 won overall (after donating the #43 to us), The Bug (Actual Name: Team Purple LeMons Racing, ’69 Beetle) got Index of Effluency, at least 3 cars went wheels-up, and Chief Perpetrator Jay Lamm claimed the V12 Mercedes for his own.
We’re insanely tired and it’s quittin’ time. More ex-post-facto coverage as the week goes on and we get to sorting all these pictures.
