It appears there was a Roadster entry at the 24 hrs of Lemons in Buttonwillow this past weekend.
Hooray!
Anyone got a trackside report, preferably of the incredibly humorous variety?

Not sure if that pic link worked.
But here is a link to the whole album as well.

Hopefully they can "squeeze" a few more miles out of her! Roll on!

The photographer really seemed to like that Limo! There are some super creative cars in that mix.

I wonder if that was a "Buy the best car you can afford" purchase?

Sadly-Linda has passed away 2022. She was the 311's den mother and drove the first Rare-Parts ball joint project. RIP.

That car was up for sale and posted on here some months back, I'm sure of it. I almost bought it myself. Cool!

Is this the car with the miata swapped underneeth it? (Miata motor and suspension?) If so, I'm very surpsrised that it finished. I know several people who were running over the weekend.

Sorry, I find modern engine swaps revolting. Keep your G, R, or U series in your Roadster!
