We finished 24th overall after having to spend over a hour in the pits due to cooling- hose problems.

Yugos are all Dead here.
I actually got two E30s for $500.
Some of the cars were over a grand etc.. So the teams then were penalized laps for going over hte budget.
The Miata, PT cruiser and mustangs were penalized laps,

Some Video of our car out on the track, that I took from the Pit area..




ANd an inside video from another car , it gives you an idea of the amount of cars. And it was hard to pass.
