$460 festiva to run in Lemons

[russian]

Our second season has started.

It was the fifth race for this car and the first race with ZERO, no, NADA mechanical issues! Finished 18th... Need a fuel cell. But it was a lot of fun anyway!
Next race like in 5 or six weeks, in Joliet IL

Do you ever do chump car by chance?

Do you ever do chump car by chance?

We were looking at chump. Small problem: we are probably less competitive there. Bigger problem: schedules are usually conflicting between these series, at least in our Region. Take this weekend - lemons was running a race 2 hours east of Chicago while chump was running a race 4 hours north of Chicago. Even if it's not the same weekend, we can't do races if they are one or two weeks apart.

Finished a tachometer for the hatch window - hopefully this would entertain people who are behind us

If we really make it to the true 24 hours race in Texas this should look really cool at night.

We are taking part in the real 24 hours race in TX this September. Just got a "new" gearbox, freshly-rebuild engine leaks oil from the oil pan gasket and we have to re-do all the brake lines.

Festiva. 24 hours race. Festiva.
