has no clue how carbon and triple plated clutch works,
and appreciate the fact that super cars have terrible turning radius…
probably doesn’t know shit about cars making a stupid dumb statement like that. there are so many modern analog cars that have not only more soul, but outperform any older cars by every single metric in terms of reliability, engineering, safety, comfort etc. Case in point : LFA, Pagani Zonda, 911 GT3 RS, Nissan GTR and MANY MANY more.
Sorry, 24 hours of lemons and the source of the LeMons puns, is a bunch of car folk truly interested in cars we can actually drive, race, rally, wrench. And make fun of themselves as much as the snobby stuff.
Everything kinda looks like a joke but 24 hour endurance racing is hard!
The Rally (different from the races) and both fun and hard. Easy or as hard as you like.
I’ve done both. Great people too. Not a box of dicks either, more women there then most any car shit I’ve done. Queer friendly as car stuff gets too.
At the track crews are often mutually supportive. Yeah it’s great.
Cars are democratic -+ we can all own one. There’s amazing engineering in high end cars. Duh. Lovely to look at. Get arrested when you swipe parts from! Lol jk.
But making a 5 or 25 year old car do well on a track is loads of fun!
Sort of. You really need a team, 3 or 5 people. Takes a year to get a car and make it ready. Needs a roll cage. Someone needs to weld or be rich, lol. Tools, fuel. Lodging and transport. 5 grand last time we budgeted but we only raced once, so discount my advice that much.
But go on their forum, lurk, and consider volunteering on a team! That would be the best way.
Racing meaning the whole schtick, prep, build, transport, driving! pits, it’s unbelievable fun. Do it!

Is there something like Cars for Dummies? All of this sounds really cool but I’ve no idea what any of it means.

That sounds pretty amazing. Is it an expensive thing to get into?

I’m going to at least go to a track nearby and watch people do this and maybe talk to them and see if anything clicks for me.
Make sure you check out LeMons racing, which is pretty different from others.
