<div>It seems that one of my new neighbors thinks there are too

have one of those houses. This new neighbor found out that I
work for the police department, so he plans to start his
complaints with me. I can't move the Midget into the garage,
so it has to go. If there is still interest in a Makers Local
Lemons/Chump Car racer, I will donate the Midget and take it
to the shop. If there isn't enough interest, I'll sell it to
someone in one of my car clubs.</div>

<div>So, depending on how much speed this picks up (pun
intended), I am closely acquainted with a gentlemen
(he's an inlaw actually) that owns his own engine shop,
builds race engines for short track, truck pulls, mud
runs, rock crawlers, and restores cars for himself on
the side. If and when I have free time again, I'm sure I
can weasel some input out of him on things we could do
to get/keep the engine running as strong as possible. <br>

I also have some machining skills I could lend to the
project.<br>

<p>I have been on the email list

often. I also don't spend time

only a few blocks away. I
apologize in advance if I'm out
of line with this post.<br>
I have been to a Lemons race at
Sebring. There are fun cars
that don't take themselves
seriously, and there are race
cars with serious drivers that
take advantage of the rules to
drive fast, expensive cars.
There are loopholes in the $500
limit that allow drivers to race
BMWs and Porsches that look like
they should be in a professional
event. However, if a team is
racing for fun and not upset by
winners in $10,000 cars, it
could be a total blast.<br>
If some of you are seriously
interested in entering the 24
Hours of Lemons, or the Chump
Car Series, I can provide a car
that will qualify after a
rebuild. I bought it with this
in mind,. It is a 1977 MG
Midget 1500.<br>
If any of you are serious enough
about a Maker Racing Team to put
some work into it, we could race
next season, and maybe even get
some autocross runs in it this
season. Lemons requires a
minimum of four drivers, and a
pit crew would be needed. I'll
be one driver, so we need at
least three more. I believe six
drivers is the max.</p>

it's racing crap cars on a

<div>More than 50 teams will
race $500 junkers around

Some teams have ideas so
