I did a 24 hour lemons race once. It was fun and I'd like to do the chump car as I heard it was a lot more fun and less BS.

I've run the Sebring Chump race for the last 5 years, but this year I'm switching to a Team that has a lot of Podiums. We expect about 115 Cars!

A good friend races a Miata regularly with the WRL in the Midwest with pretty good success. I've attended their school and am certified to race with them but the timing (and finances) haven't worked out for me to join them just yet. For sure want to make it happen soon though.

our Team did Great. We Won - 1st overall out of 91 cars. I also drove our sister car and it got 2nd in Class despite having tire issues (don't ever buy Hankook Ventus). Our 3rd car finished but was down about 50 laps.

They make sure that nobody was cheating. You know, like soft compound tires, aftermarket ECUs, BMW stuff

Thanks!

Post Race - make sure there aren't illegal parts - fast fill Tank, Suspension.

Also gives competitors a chance to protest if need be
