Topic: My 50th Lemons race this weekend...

It's a milestone of questionable judgement and financial irresponsibility!

Anybody wanna plan to celebrate it with us Friday night? Probably just a local restaurant in Concord somewhere...

This will be my 100th race as a judge, and my 105th overall. I suppose I should celebrate that dubious milestone.

Sorry I couldn't be there! Congrats on wasting almost as much time and probably a lot more money than I have on this crazy thing we call Lemons.

Awesome!  I'm sorry I can't be there, man.  I'll be moving into my new house / folly.

Enjoy your race and hope you have many more fun ones to come!

Two dozen different Lemons builds say you're off a bit on the time part, but the message is the same. We could have nearly paid off our mortgages...
