LeMons CMP
I had the pleasure of racing with the Hong Norrth guys again in the MX-3 this past weekend at the CMP LeMons race. We did pretty well

Nice going! Another CSCC driver makes it big!
Congrats man...proud of you. Ted E. Bayer - Hillclimbing Understeer is when you hit the mountain with the front of the car and oversteer is when you hit the mountain with the rear of the car. Horsepower is how fast you hit the mountain, torque is how far you move the mountain. |

RE: LeMons CMP
I got to start the race and when the random green was dropped I was 42nd out of 69 cars. After an hour I was in 8th. After 2 hours I was in 1st
The heat was a big factor for both cars and drivers on Sunday we installed a cool seat that helped a little...it was still a hot and sweaty ride Our theme was Smokey and the Bandit which was super fun when the Smokey car was chasing the Bandit

RE: LeMons CMP
Way to go Marc! People really underestimate how hard it is to win one of those races.
My last LeMons race here in Houston I brought the car in after my first stint on day 2 in 2nd, just one lap down. As we were pitting the lead car blew its engine. Then we found a big oil leak as we're about to send the car out... ugh. We've had some top-5s and a ton of top-10s to boot. Frustrating but it just makes us keep digging harder to find the edge we need to win next time out Keep it going
