Remember the Fiat Brava? Those lucky enough to be at the Yeehaw It's Texas 24 Hours Of LeMons will get to see a Brava take on a Karmann-Ghia, an AMC Gremlin, and a VW Fastback!
That's right, in addition to the Little Buckaroo Baja Bug, Frogmasters MGB-GT, and the 'No Fat Shiksas' Team Israel Opel GT that we've seen at previous LeMons Texas races, we'll have Team ROADKILL in an armadillo-fied Volkswagen Type 3 Fastback, Mostly Harmless Racing in a Douglas Adams-ized Karmann Ghia, Substandard Racing's AMC Gremlin, not to mention a pair of Mustang IIs, a Triumph TR7, and several pickup trucks.
For you fans of the Nissan Z, we'll have eight of our favorite failure-prone Japanese sports cars testing the limits of wrenching endurance (and making occasional on-track appearance). Six Mazda RX-7s, ten apiece Fox Mustangs and BMW E30s, and the usual assortment of head-gasket-challenged Hondas will keep it looking like your normal LeMons race. I'll be there, Judge Lieberman will be there, and the Rally Ready crew, fresh from another Pike's Peak victory in their Evo, will be helping us mete out punishments in the Penalty Box. And speaking of the Penalty Box, we've decided to step up the cruelty a few notches for this race due to the largest-ever number of cars in LeMons history. That's right, 136 teams have been accepted, and that can mean only one thing: the entire course at MSR will be used this time, which should enable those overpowered, ill-handling Mustangs and Camaros to fly off the track like never before!
