The 24 Hours of LeMons traveling circus is wrapping up a great 20-race 2012 season at Eagles Canyon Raceway in Texas, and the LeMons Supreme Court and the tech inspectors did their customary scrutiny of the 38 teams that were hardcore enough to spend New Year’s weekend in freezing-cold Decatur, Texas. Your LeMons correspondent is taking a vacation from his duties as Chief Justice of the LeMons Supreme Court, so these photographs come to us courtesy of Speedycop Gang of Outlaws member Ron Vickers.

The Guinness Book of Records folks say that the biggest road-race event of all time had something like 184 vehicles. There’s a good chance, depending on how many not-quite-ready teams thrash their hoopties into shape overnight, that we may break that record at the Vodden the Hell Are We Doing 24 Hours of LeMons at Northern California’s Thunderhill Raceway. Of the cars that are ready, we can say that the record for Most Totally Ridiculous Engine Swaps been shattered already. Plus, we have our…

We’re up in rainy, gloomy Washington State for the second annual Pacific Northworst 24 Hours of LeMons, and this field is shaping up to be one of the best we’ve seen in the ’12 season. There’s the usual assortment of BMW 3-series, Mazda RX-7s, Acura Integras, and Fox-body Mustangs, but those cars are just the background against which the real racers stand out. You know it’s going to be a good race when you speculate about how the Saab 96 is going to fare against the Sedan D…

I’m still recovering from having my tonsils hacked out with pinking shears, so I couldn’t get to Texas to judge at the 2011 season-ending 24 Hours of LeMons race at Eagles Canyon Raceway. Fortunately, the LeMons Supreme Court has tentacles everywhere, and they’ve sent in some photos showing how Friday’s prerace BS Inspection went down. [...]

The full name of this weekend’s race at Sears Point aka Infineon Raceway is “THE SKANKAWAY ANTI-TOE-FUNGAL 500, SPONSORED BY CRUSKIN-SKANKAWAY INC., THE OFFICIAL FUNGICIDAL TOE CREME OF LEMONS,” because Cruskin-Skankaway, Inc., won the bidding war for race sponsorship. Appropriately enough, this race featured more Chrysler, Mitsubishi, and Chrysler-Mitsubishi products than any race in LeMons [...]
