Northern lemons... Burch, Landrum, Boudy, Warren, White...who else...?

White is hunting for running Neons at this point and willing to do the wrenching..goal $500 per driver all in. Car will have a muffler that is really quiet and probably keep the radio for entertainment for the long stints!

I also know of atleast 2 teams being formed off of DFWstangs.net as we speak with some real characters!

Just got reply from the guy with the Neons...sounds like a go!

1996 neon 2 door, 5spd with 123k miles...lots of spares with second car! Who's in?!

I'm all over this Matt, count me in. I don't have space at my house for the car but can definitely help wrench on it whenever needed. :D

I talked to Richard Painter this morning.
He can help with engine work.

Matt...you're starting to scare us with how serious you're getting about this effort.

What about an RX-7? I have been told the motors go forever. Is this true and would it be a good choice? One negitive is I can build a conv. motor with eyes closed but a Wankel? Never been in one.

Wow! Does that give us 6 drivers now?! :P

Now we need to think of a Team name! Nuerotic Northern Neon Neanderthols? Our car number could be 4N...

Ok, I have to put the pipe down...I am having WAY too much fun with this!!!

you guys need to go to youtube and watch all the videos!
Just search 24 hours of lemons and you will have an hour of entertainment!

Ok, lemons North...update.

Of the two neons, the 4 door is the 5spd car with blown motor already out of the car. the 2 door auto runs with same SOHC engine, ready to put into the 4 door..so there will be some work there...however, the 4 door is in better mechanical shape as the 2 door had already been wrecked and fixed terribly. The good news is we won't be in a purple car! :lol: I also like the idea of a smaller door opening on the 4 door given the contact issues.

It's got 6 nearly new tires, and all the parts swap car to car which is good for spares.

So, a little more work involved but I think we are ok...engine swap is already half done! God this spares list is going to be long!

Going to look at them sunday and probably bring them home.

Some one needs to do the Falcon! Too cool.

I would be kinda neat as we are the AI / CMC crowd to all do lead sled kinda things. Neons?!? Ok, cheap and easy, I get that, but come on, people are going to see you driving this thing ;)

I'm in for the Austin crowd. I _might_ be able to put a car at the house (oh man, the wife if going to kill me!).

I like Morgans idea, we need some subforums. That might be good anyway for things like dyno days anyway....

Oops! The police report seems to indicate that, oh I don't know, the car had been reported stolen. Back to the drawing board. :evil: FMR

Hey Jerry - PM me your email addy if you don't mind.
