    Is it "toast" because we want to win?

    I would do these with my ITB car if I wasn't worried about it being crushed if the organizers felt like it and if I didn't have to worry about someone buying it for $500 bucks.... the cage alone in an IT car is easily over a grand. Dumb rules if you ask me.

    Oh well

    Chump is real racing, not the Circus that the citrus deal is. Chump does not crush cars, or claim cars. The cars are the same safety wise, or more, than the SCCA cars. The cages are unrestricted other than min tube size. The total cost of the cars is about the same as a cheap ITB car, 2-6000$.
    You will go home withthe car that you brought.
    The rules are here;http://www.chumpcar.com/ look at the events page and the info on any upcoming race. We run the ITB car in the EC class(no Money), just for fun. and we do have fun.
    There are many ex IT cars running the Chumpcar races.
    PS. I can still get the $250 referral bonus, If you are going to run, let me know and we can both get $250 off the next race.

    DON'T get Chumpcar confused with Lemons!! Big difference!
    I have talked to too many people that are totally pumped on the Chump car thing!!
    Kinda hard not to check it out.
    Everybody is super happy!
    No griping (nicest word I could find)!!
    Lots of laps per dollar!!
    Great Tracks!
    Why not!?!?

    I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that this is the car you had at Sebring:

    Thanks for clarifying! I DID think this was the same as the lemons. Sadly these tracks are all a long way from NH. maybe next year we can go to beaverrun... this year it conflicts with my schedule. Lemons did come to NHMS but I skipped it for the reasons I stated earlier.

    Looks like a fun group of people to race with,

    Yes, that's our car. We were doing a carb check . The new carb ran fine in testing, and useless at Sebring. Back to the tried and true Weber.
    Thanks for the pic tho. Still it ran about 2:55 or so, with no cornering power,on DOT TW 200 tires.
