:) ya that was us.

we ended up 67th out of 122 cars. not best, but certainly not the worst. we had several off-track antics (including having 2 of our drivers up and leave before the race was half over because of some intrateam fighting, wheels were not tested on the back and did not fit, hence we had the 18s in front and 16s in back, racing brake pads werent installed before the race & i had to do it during, cv boot was bad and we had to change it in the middle of the race).

were easily a top 20 car if not for the bullshit. it gets decent mileage, handles and brakes well. we were walking pretty much every car out there on the straights, as the video shows. werent too bad in the corners either ;)

assuming the schedule is similar to this years, we will hopefully be doing lemons @ CMP in march of '10 (with some new team members), hopefully we'll do a bit better.

Yes you do, see the Cougar Bait thread, I think there were some details about it. Nice guys, had the radiator in the trunk, a 16 valve 2.0i and was pretty fun to watch.

Most of the cars there probably fall into that category! Its the BS that makes the race what it is though! Penalties, break downs, failure to prepare...that's Lemons!
