I'm thinking the horn button alone put him out of the $500 class :)

Adrian_Thompson (Forum Supporter) said:Serious Q. Does any organization run something similar to the Champ/LeMons concept that isn't endurance. Events for single driver cars less than an hour in duration?
Both should. 1/2 hour race because that's all I want to drive. It's how drivers without cars could select a endurance car for the endurance race.

No Champ car or Lemons car is based on $500 anymore. It's just older cars with so many points.
Wow this thread is a blast from the past. I miss lemons racing.
This may sound a bit corny but I was disappointed after winning the last event we were at. (The last lemons race I ever attended). I was hoping to meet some of the GRM staff as they were the primary sponcer of the race. There was no one from GRM to be found. No one there when we were awarded our Nickles (they are really really heavy!!!). I went back to the GRM tent after the award thing and the place was vacant except for a plastic banner thing (like a large piece of caution tape) that has the GRM logo on it. I grabbed it as a memento of the event. I still have it. I can only assume that something happened or came up forcing the GRM people to not be around for the end of the event.
The team with the 924s wanted to take the motor out of my 924s I had driven down to the race. For various reasons that did not happen.

I'm with you on this one.
I saw a ratty-ass Rolls Royce on my local CL a few days back. Guy wanted $2500 for it. I can't even imagine how bad a Rolls would have to be to go for 500.
Looks like somebody snapped it up for 25, 'cause it's gone now!

LeMons nor Champ car have the $500 limit anymore. I don't know the exact rules for LeMons but you show up with a Rolls Royce ready for Racing you're in.
Champ Car has points assigned to various cars. my Jag for example is 100 points so I can put 400 points worth of go fast stuff on it without lap penalties.
