EXCITING NEW ROTARY CLASS RACE IN U.S.

In the heady spirit of John's totally serious announcement, I feverishly
offer this new development, especially for rotary-engined entries.

Les Nordman :-)


For those in Texas, we now have our own 24 Hours of LeMons:
http://www.24hoursoflemons.com/events/texas/

If you don't know what that is, you're missing out on some good, cheap
(real cheap) racing fun. the idea is to race 24 hours (not really - they
take a break overnight) in a $500 beater (safety equipment is excluded
from the $500 limit. Tires, too, I think.) There are special penalties
for unfriendly driving, most hated, and the car voted to have cheated on
the $500 most gets destroyed halfway through, among other fun and random
penalties and awards.
Looks like gangs of fun.
