If I might draw your attention to the 10th place finisher Formula M.
2nd fastest lap time in the whole race.
Doesnt pay any nickels, but feels groovy.
We were in 6th after Saturday, a couple penalties here and there on Sunday hurt us , but overall, great success for a POS, video and pictures to follow.........
Congratulations, Team Schwing! That little car had some balls. We should have given you ours when they castrated one of our cars for an infraction.
This event was an absolute blast! There was some really excellent racing and some truly horrible cars. The judges were hilarious. One of them is a writer for Jalopnik. His stuff on LeMons can be found here - http://jalopnik.com/5065571/24-hours...ron-3-of-top-5

well it sounds like our Texas AI/CMC guys represented us well. lok forward to the stories.
Congrats to everyone that ran this. Cool stuff. Looking forward to some write ups and pics.
Thanks to FFR for the chance to participate in the LeMons race... Jason and I had a blast and Mary got a lot of use out of the tripod... didn't take her long to realize how heavy even the smallest camera get after a few HOURS... AICMCTEXAS was very well represented and had great results... kind of ironic that the winners were in an import... be on the lookout for a possible POS class in our enduro...
Side note: If MFW isn't careful, he might actually win the election in 2012... Team Liir is getting lot of questions from the bumper stickers on our daily drivers...
You have the bumper stickers on your daily drivers??? That is freakin hilarious!! :lol:Quote:

Our car sucked in that it had absolutly no power, a faulty air meter I think, but it did well in the turns with its massive tires. Dispite the lack of power we finished 14th and were only about 10 seconds off the pace. All in all, a great time. FMR
Tremendous! Thats just awesome news. Glad everyone had a good time and congrats on the results!
I must say it was the most fun I have ever had in a car. I was lucky more than once and stupid more than twice. But in the end I had some great teammates keeping my ego under control and the tires on the track.
Thanks to all the NASA-TX guys and gals for helping us out when we needed it. NASA TX had a great showing this weekend, but more so we all came together like it was a normal track weekend. I am still convinced I am building a car for the right series!
It was great to see you guys there, until the next event!
Just an interesting tid-bit about lap times at the LeMons race. I knew we had a "quick" car with the ability to run up front. I ran the thing pretty darn hard and at mostly 95% the entire time. I ran fast time of the race for our team with a 1:19.3.
I looked on mylaps and this was 20th fastest for the event!! :shock:
We definitely learned ALOT about endurance racing. :D
