24 hours of Lemons July 7th & 8th :)
just got our acceptance letter and paperwork.
Anyone else doing this or know about it?
Bascially you have $500 that you can spend...that is for the car, engine, mods etc.....unlimited budget for safety like roll cage and tires etc. but you can only spend 500 for the car and everything else.

yeah...i dunno why they made it so much earlier this year....maybe its because the track is blowing up with events....we have 8 driftbattle events with 4 or 5 more exhibitions scheduled for altamont this year too....so that just shows how many events are happening.
now comes the hard part....finding the car!

Sounds like fun, someone should do it.
I would if I lived closer, and had time off.

Might be fun to drive though, how many drivers per team?

It does sound like fun. Almost like the Grassroots Motorsports challenge they used to have yearly (1999-spend up to $199, 2000-spend up to $2000,etc.etc.) .
Good luck Nat !
