They are streaming live for the next day, I believe until early tommorrow morning. If you are not familiar with the 24 hours of lemons it is an endurance race with a maximum car value of $500, meaning that you can only spend $500 in you car (not including safetys stuff, roll cage, brakes), included in taht $500 is parts such as wheels tires, and the car itself. Anyway its entertainment at its best

Golly Fred - do it right, it's LeMons :lol:

I'm doing it this next year with the guys from the track - at least, that's the current plan. We have a triumph that is now PULL-start. It's absolutely brilliant.

If you have plans of going over budget stating that you were "gifted" items like the body or motor... think again. Anyone can purchase your items within the $500 budget. And, if it's questioned enough - there is a car crusher on site that they will put your vehicle into.

It's AWESOME!!

I blame public schools.

I'm jealous... i don't have enough friends to put together a team :(

I went up on Saturday to watch the race... CMP does not seem to be a spectator-friendly track, so it was a bit dull from my point of view. Still wanna do it, tho.
