I recently flagged for the 24 Hours of Lemons first race of 2022 at Barber Motorsports Park. I worked Saturday, over 100 cars were on course for 7.5 hours. I was at the hairpin, turn 6 known as Charlotte's Web because of the large spider sculpture on the outside of the turn. It has been a couple of years since I've worked a Lemons race and I have to say it was fun, also intense, they never stopped coming. They continued racing on Sunday for another 7 hours, but with a lunch break.
Some of the cars were pretty interesting and well engineered. The weapon of choice was either a BMW E30 or a 1980 - 2005 Acura.
The unofficial results were #1 2002 Acura RSX (#43), #2 1990 Honda Civic (old race car), #3 1999 Mercedes SLK230 (yellow #170 in pics), and 1970 AMC AMX (#6).
More on my favorite car below.
Obligatory British car connection, a TR8 that I've seen in both Lemons and vintage races in the southeast.
And now for my favorite and most unusual, a 1961 Borgward Isabella Coupe (German) - think the odd red cabriolet in the Entresto commercials. It had a 5.7L Hemi engine - not the fastest, but it handled well and just kept motoring on.
The rest of the pictures I was able to take during their transponder check out laps can be seen at: Shine Country Classic
