Topic: Lemons racers with other experience
I am in a bit of a discussion on another board with some troll who wants to bad mouth Lemons. An idea which I find comical since the whole point is that we don't take ourselves seriously enough to care, but it brought a question to my mind.
How many of you have competed in other wheel to wheel racing?
This would Include but not be limited to
CVAR, NASA, SCCA, COMMA, PCA, BMWCCA and all of the rest of amature "club racing".
I have done several of these other things and find that Lemons has a good natured competitive bent but with fewer a$$hats. I think that the curse and the nonsense keep them away.
Who can take themselves too seriously when they are beaten by a car called the Metrognome or when you race against a giant armadillo etc.
We are clearly not in this to impress anyone and I think that makes for a better environment.
Back to my point, just curious if you would post up,
1.Have you raced elsewhere?
2.Where?
3.How does Lemons compare?
for example
1. Yes
2. NASA, SCCA, PCA, COMMA
3. Lemons is a cross between COMMA and burning man festival (in a very good way). I love the camaraderie in the pits when everybody pulls together to get a crapcan back on track. I love it. I also love that I can get more than one event out of a set of tires! It is another plus that the tires are not $300 each.
