Topic: 2016 Halloween Hooptiefest, who's in

Haven't gotten the official email yet, but my submission shows as accepted. Hell yessss.

It's be an interesting year not running a team, but I'm back. New car being built as a family car for this race. Seriously can't wait.


Who else is coming?

Slow in, Slow out. Reporting for duty!

This will be our first Lemons race. Incredibly relieved to see that we were accepted.

Welcome aboard. The east coast generally doesn't have much of a wait list problem, so you can stay relieved for all future races.

Sorry for Party Racing is in. Hoping for a strong showing to follow up on back to back 3rd place finishes in NJ and CT.

Re: 2016 Halloween Hooptiefest, who's in

I will be there with Yuri's "Great Globs of Oil" Opel Isuzu as well as 3 Pedal Mafia's fleet.

Sadly the Fox will not be returning to competition here in the NE, her new owners are picking her up Wednesday to race down in the Florida area.  New car coming for 2016.

Moot Point Racing and their 91' Volvo is in.  We're looking to split a garage if anyone is interested or knows how to sign up for them.

Re: 2016 Halloween Hooptiefest, who's in

We have 4 in for this race, one will be a debut, the other three are the same old same old, with 2 of the 3 now bumped up to A class this year.  We aren't quite sure how we feel about ourselves having a mostly A class fleet, hopefully the new car will make us feel better about that.

The hot tub will be spectacular on a chilly October night.

Re: 2016 Halloween Hooptiefest, who's in

I just checked our team's Lemons site, so it appears that another one from our Bratva is accepted....!
So classes will begin again for our Student Drivers...at least we are not all freshmen this year...
Can't wait to see everyone/everything!!
(I don't understand how some of you can get more than one car ready to a race...I can barely get one car race-able ready)

I wonder if this race will also sell out...three out of three sold out races on the East Coast maybe would get us a fourth race next year?.....(ok, ok, don't get mad at me....I know I am a greedy bastard, and have it much easier than many of you that need to drive thousands of miles, through snow, wind, and rain, barefoot, etc. to get to a race....)

I will be there. First time at NHMS since 2014, so I except some amazing Class C cars and solid bribes.

Yay! Haven't seen you in a while. We'll step up our bribe game, since our car is most certainly not a C class car this time round.

Re: 2016 Halloween Hooptiefest, who's in

Actually, we think of NHMS as an excellent track for private, contemplative bowel movements, since the Lemons HQ staffers get the keys to the media building and thus don't have to share restroom space with thousands of racers squeezing out the aftermath of their all-knockwurst-und-Natty-Lite dinners.

Re: 2016 Halloween Hooptiefest, who's in

Yet another race going by and I do not have a car fully prepped to battle it out for honors in the losing column. At least the plan is to have it ready for NJMP next year.

Extremely excited to be getting a seat for NH this year. Can't wait to see everyone again there. Can I still be a rookie at the second event or will everyone just treat me like Rabbit from Super Troopers?

Re: 2016 Halloween Hooptiefest, who's in

Semi off topic question.

Do all crew members need to have a suit/helmet if they are not going to be doing any "over the wall" stuff? He will only be doing 'in the pits' wrenching when he is needed.

No...he only needs full gear if he's gonna pass the fence going into the hot pits.

You mean coming for the 2017 season.

DNF Racing got accepted.  I won't be there so the party won't be the same. I'll try to have the attractive single members of the group to continue to try and bring girls up.  But cold weather and Loudon isn't the greatest.

The Defeat Device Chevette will be there for its first Class B race!  Judge Phil finally gets to see the awesome build before we go H6 next year.
Can we get keys to bathroom because of our awesome build?
