Posts tagged ‘24 Hours Of LeMons’

Remember the Holy Nickelbag mid-engined, twin-turbo GMC van LeMons racer? The Morrow’s Auto maniacs have returned to Gingerman Raceway with victory in mind!

We of the 24 Hours of LeMons Supreme Court always like to come up with penalties that refer to current events and/or local interests. For example, the Mark Sanford’s Love Letter To Argentina penalty in South Carolina.

Because the Van Buren Boys brought zero documentation for their car, which was semi-cheaty (built 350, 4-speed, LSD 10-bolt, etc), they got a dozen penalty laps. However, this excellent racin’ machine brought smiles to our faces every time we saw it over the weekend.

The LeMons Supreme Court has had the use of some great Judgemobiles, including such standouts as the Short Bus, the ’47 Ford rat rod, and the Doomed Tempo. At the LeMons South Fall ’10 race, however, we had two incredible Judgemobiles!

You thought there’d be no more BS Inspection timelapse videos after I left Jalopnik? Think again!

The moment we first laid eyes on this ’74 Chevrolet Caprice at the LeMons South race last weekend, we knew it would be taking home a major trophy.

And the Real Winner Is…

When a 24 Hours of LeMons race gets about two hours from the checkered flag, Chief Perp Jay Lamm begins the process referred to as “Doing the thing with the shit.”

And the Winner Is…

That’s right, five BMW E30s have taken overall wins in LeMons races!

I didn’t have time to make all 12 months, but I did have time to exchange a ’90 Tercel headlight-switch replacement job for some pro design work for this month’s calendar.

The LeMons Supreme Court has become weary of the BMW E30, particularly late ones such as this 1991 318i. For this reason, smart E30 teams step up with a righteous theme. How about a fully functioning game of Operation on the car’s hood?
