I have been doing Lemons with my friends since 2009 and between all of us we have 3 cars. We are (almost) set to race at the end of this month at MSR-Houston. I wanted to extend an invitation to see if any of you guys would be interested in racing with us? We possibly need one more driver and I wanted to get some feelers out in case the guy we have now backs out.

We will be racing a convertible '91 Mazda RX7 with a 5.0/T-5 swap. This will be the third event that this car has competed in.

If you are interested post up or shoot me a PM and we can discuss the details!

Thanks,

Daniel

Me and a few friends are thinking of getting a car for Lemons/Chump Car racing. What are the requirements for drivers? As in what experience do you need to be a qualified driver? One guy used to have an SCCA license, I'm an hpde'er, and the others sadly have no track experience at all!

Generally you "buy" a "NASCAR" license at the event for $50 or something like that and "you be a race car driver". (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Yep. Neither my wife, nor I had turned a wheel on a race circuit, other than solo I and II events at racetracks before getting behind the wheel of our team's cars. At least Barbara's first stint behind the wheel was at the start of the race, and she got 15-20 minutes lapping under caution. My first stint, ever, was under green mid-way through day one of the first race we attended. We definitely had company in that club.
