Why just compete in one 24 Hours of Lemons race, when you could compete in them all? Well, that’s exactly what Zac Caldwell plans to do.
Starting this February, Zac will head out to compete at 23 races at 21 tracks across 17 states, with many of the low-buck races happening only days apart. In total, the 11-month trek will …
Dude has got an illness. Awesome!
OK, that rules.
I remember the dude(s) that drove a Chrysler k car wagon to many races one year. That was nuts. They "upgraded" it over the course of the travels ending up with a mitsu v6 and manual at one point. It was always broken.
This reminds me of that quite a bit.
I think he just said "An LMP2 prototype can’t do that for a 100 million dollars.” where nocones could hear him....

I mean, you're not wrong. Entry fees are up to about $1700 or 1800 per race now. 23 races will cost over 40 grand in entry fees alone, unless 24HoL is comping him some/all for his charity work. Not to mention 30,000 miles, with some on track, will burn through around 5 grand in gas.

Did you see how the K car met its demise? Let me see if I can find the YouTube link. It's awesome!
Yes, this van appeared last year and we talked him into bringing it to more races. If I recall, we had it at Road America (I was a judge for that race). It's sooo cool.
