Excellent! The Cheese Eating Surrender Monkeys will be there. This will be an easy and convenient event for us as our Super High Impact Team will be right in the middle of an extended testing season at the Nürburgring.

Cinq cent Cinq bichez!

@Bret: remember, the 604 is basically the same as a 505 (and a 504) under the skin... when the works-backed 604 crashes, the Surrender Monkeys can cannibalize it for parts.

@Armand Bengle: Thanks! That's assuming Pujo! doesn't fail spectacularly on the first lap. And that we make it to the event with truck, trailer, and Pujo! all safe and intact.

How many LeMons could actually make it all the way down the Mulsanne Straight, and how long would it take if one did?

@FЯeeMan has had his GOLD card revoked: set time of 4 hours? I'm betting the winning car will muster 5 laps.

Expect to hear from Ben Popken about this. I'm e-mailing The Consumerist as we speak.

Am I the only one who thinks a Goofus & Gallant/Project Car Hell crossover spinoff thingy would be the cat's pajamas?

"Gallant bought an always garaged, little old lady owned Toyota Corona Liftback. Goofus bought a Morris Marina that was sitting under a shredded tarp and was last used as a portable meth lab."

I have already signed up as an unpaid mechanic for the Hotchkiss-Grégoire. Unpaid, except for my haute-couture Hotchkiss-Grégoire-Jalopnik-Gold overalls, that is.

Has anyone seen Wes sleep, like ever? I'm betting he sabotaged the Jalopnik Gold servers before we found out his secret that he's sent here by Skynet to alter our opinions on modern cars, and our own sexuality.

The guy in the front of a fifteen vehicle chain is gonna be pi$$ed off when he figures out what's going on. "How the heck did I end up with 10mpg in a Prius?!?!?"

Will there be a special prize for whoever can pull off a CLR-style front-flip on the backstretch in a $500 beater?

@Vexorg: Sure, but you're going to need a catastrophic drive shaft or U-joint failure. And it won't be near as graceful. But you will likely end up upside down.

I assume all the con-rod chunks, mulched transmission components, and spilt fluids that the LeMons racers will leave scattered across the back half of the Mulsanne Straight will be left there to make the main event more interesting?

@Thrashy, dreaming of Chicago boxes: I think bumpers are the preferred LeMons detritus.
