I am definitely interested in doing this. Nelson sounds like a good time. ---

> [@nelstoys](#): > > SO which track event are we talking about there are allot? Im interested I have a car hauler and a big truck to pull shit with, but not many days off considering i have to manage my departement. But this does sound fun, i also have a place that can soup up the trans and rear ends if needed for free. how about we keep the car at your gf’s house to avoid spending time removing the glass and mirrors ourselves. I predict there will be no team NYspeed at lemons this year ---

A 90\* turn just after the kink @ the over track crossover would slow down the back straight.

rumor mill: > [@New obviously](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/new-obviously/15117/32): > > Oh, and more track news. Gates for LeMons will open as early as Thursday for those of you traveling a great distance. Friday testing will be $100 a car for those wishing to test. (Jay said it’s $199 per car and $50 per driver at Thunderhill, so he said we will be real popular with the drivers.) Camping as always will be available, even if you have to stay until Monday morning. > The pitlane will not be used as in the Longest day due to the number of cars. All work will be done in your paddock space similar to Toledo. Supps will be coming before too long and will be posted on the track website. ---

It looks like Nelson will be a **straight 24 hour race** as opposed to two race sessions (that usually add up to only 12 hours), and by the rules so far is the only race to be run at night.

Year old thread. And you might want to read the rules, you’ll be very reluctant to put a well built engine in the car. ---

One of the greatest days of my life. We had a good car that ran perfectly, we had a plan that we executed perfectly, and we had good luck, add that up and you get victory! I cannot describe what it felt like to cross that line with the checker waving for US! Not someone else, for US! Jon, Jeremy, Ken, Marty, and myself as drivers. Jim and Marty’s son as crew, we brought it home, now I’m going to bed. ---
