Here's the stuff I have going on in the shop. None of the cars are safe from the bite of the mod bug, although some suffer more than others.

The 24 Hours of Lemons

This endurance race is for cars purchased, fixed up, and track-prepped for a total of 500 bucks or less--and before reaching the grid, you'll have to survive 2007's Hippie Bike Messenger Avoidance Test, the Incontinent Rottweiler Slalom, the Marxist-Valet Parking Challenge, and similar trials. Twelve hours into the race, the car voted People's Choice (for best concept and prep) is called in and awarded a cash prize. Simultaneously, the car voted People's Curse (for being driven by the biggest moe-rawns) is called in and destroyed. At the end of 24 hours, a gala awards ceremony plies the survivors with trophies, plaques, and four-figure purses paid with canvas bags full of nickels.
