I did a 24 hour lemons race once. It was fun and I'd like to do the chump car as I heard it was a lot more fun and less BS.

I've run the Sebring Chump race for the last 5 years, but this year I'm switching to a Team that has a lot of Podiums. We expect about 115 Cars!

A good friend races a Miata regularly with the WRL in the Midwest with pretty good success. I've attended their school and am certified to race with them but the timing (and finances) haven't worked out for me to join them just yet. For sure want to make it happen soon though.

our Team did Great. We Won - 1st overall out of 91 cars. I also drove our sister car and it got 2nd in Class despite having tire issues (don't ever buy Hankook Ventus). Our 3rd car finished but was down about 50 laps.

what do they do in the post race inspection? Congrats on the win!

I've always wanted to do a Lemons or Chump car, any livermore CA peeps want to do one PM me.

They make sure that nobody was cheating. You know, like soft compound tires, aftermarket ECUs, BMW stuff:lol:

Thanks!

Post Race - make sure there aren't illegal parts - fast fill Tank, Suspension.

Also gives competitors a chance to protest if need be

I did Oregon Raceway Park in 2015... we won the C Class, got 3rd overall I think...

I did PIR that fall. We built a crazy splitter that unbalanced the car and damaged the CV axle boots which kept us off the podium. I did a bunch of trackdays with it in 2017 but have sold the car to somone in Washington who is doing 24 Hours of Lemons I think.
