Any teams out there looking for a driver/team member? Anyone have experience with it? I want to dabble into this craziness!!

Should have grabbed me a a couple weeks ago...

Check out the Lemons/chump boards there is usually a late straggler team looking for a driver.

There is a Lemons race at the end of June if you're itching for it soon.

^Alex and Yanase: If you guys want to put together a Lemons or Chumpcar team, count me in!

Same here.

Also I know a guy selling a Lemons prepped C4 corvette if anyone is intersted

Would it be a good idea to check out Chump racing? LeMons can get a little silly

Lemons alllows way more entrants than Chump, so in Lemons you get giant fields with tons of flags and body contact. Chump is more focused on the driving, but is more strict on the $500 limit, so you don't get some of the insane build you see in lemons.

The lemons event at the end of this month has something like 130 cars registered for Buttonwillow and the cap is 150 I think.

I can't speak to Chump because I haven't done an event with them, but I've done 4 LeMons races now, and while you're correct that yellow flag periods are quite common, body contact is heavily frowned upon and you will usually get black flagged if you make contact with anyone. I've yet to make contact with another car through my 4 races.

I didn't mean to make it sound common its not. The bigger fields make in lemons make it more likely.

I have done 3 Lemons races. Great fun! Count me in if anyone is putting a team together!

Sounds like we're up to two teams already!

I've already got a ride for the Buttonwillow race next month

She's a beaut:

The car has since done a race at Sonoma that I missed.

We would need to "source" a $500 car. Know any good "source"?

I hope you replaced Clown Driver!
