WTF is that thing? Lemans? Aspire? CRX? The low angle of the shot makes it difficult to figure out.

There's a New England LeMons...and Brett has an 84 Saab 900 he got for $50 that we intended to ice race...except it's in Maine now...hmmmmm

Is that the old Sirens racing Integra? I remember them cutting the roof out, so the patch on the roof fits...

We tried to buy their car for parts after the first or second race, but they got all nostalgic and kept it...

We sold the General to the Sirens, yes. Buncha chicks from the ADV rider forums IIRC. They did a much better job fundraising (all you can drink beer parties??!?) but a worse job making sure the car was put together.

Something like forgetting to bolt the car back together after a clutch install and the engine falling out DURING the event....I guess they welded a bar across the top of the engine to keep it up because they couldn't figure out how else to(or didn't have the parts). Funny story (not sure how true but my brother was convinced). We fared a little better - 19th out of 90 last July. Great times, we'll be back!!!

(sounds of violins playing)

Not all is fun/games with the tech editor stuff, I'm also the sales director for advertising. That's work, no matter how you cut it.

Incredible! It is you! Hey man, how come you don't go around bragging that you work for one of the coolest car magazines on the planet?
