I am 22 and brand new into Lemons but having experience driving in demo derbies im already hooked, my question to you all iz how do i best go about getting into Lemons racing from square 1? whats the best way to find a car and get a team together? any advice, tips, or help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!
Probably best thing is look at the schedule, see which race is closest to you or which ones you are willing to travel to, then either go first as a spectator (safe but kinda boring) or post in the "driver looking for a team" section and say that you are willing to do an arrive-and-drive at the following races and let people email you and offer you seats for an all-inclusive fee (which varies from team to team).
Always easier to get responses when you post your location and which races you are most interested in attending. People nearby can point you to already built Lemons cars for sale, if that's the route you want to take (usually cheapest and easiest, but you don't get the experience of building your own car).
I'll second arrive and drive. You won't truly want to spend all your money ever on Lemons until you hold the puppy.
