Just getting back from day 1 of Lemons at NPR

Tons of fun.

Funny thing was that is I heard "good thing there aren't any greenies out here" at least 20 times. The way I figure it; Lemons is recycling racing, so it's green (ish) :-) .

On the A car we blew a mastercylinder, blew the corner, crashed in to a levy, smushed the drivers front fender, and popped a few coolant hoses off. Swapped a mastercylinder in from a parts car, which had no working rear circuit, we deemed rear brakes unnecessary and sent her back out.

On the b car
We killed the motor dead very crispy, oil in coolant, difficult to turn over, and coolant in oil.

Here's a few iphone pics I shot.

I'll post more from day 2 tomorrow.
