We actually finished up in 24th... the 20 lap penalty dropped us to 52nd this morning. We had some tie rod issues, a flat tire, but we came back to finish 24th.

 

I need to sort through some 3+gb of pictures, but i'll put some pictures up soon. It was an awesomely fun event, and a lot of the other teams rocked!

I saw another account of the "race" in another mag, I think Grassroots Motorsports. It was even funnier than the story in Car and Driver :lol: I was thinking my old Merkur XR4Ti would be fun for the race, but I don't think I could bring myself to bash it up like that :(

 

My dads got one of those too. Pretty fun to drive actually, it would probably dominate since they handle so well. But it would definately go boom.

The XR4Ti is going to be my next Lemons car for sure. The motor is actually dead nuts reliable. It's an ancient solid cast iron lump! That sucker is solid. With nothing more than a turboback, K&N, MBC and an intercooler they can pump out around 250 whp. Best of all, since I have 3 of them and a crapload of spare parts.

second place cause of a blown tire... after 14 hours of racing, the winning margin was 7.404 seconds
