Black Metal V8olvo Moving Up Through Ranks, But Taking A Beating [24 Hours Of Lemons Altamont]
So we put in the Loverman followed by Viergangfuchs this morning and started knocking off some quick laps, passing like crazy and moving up to the 20s in the standings; Mr. Baruth has our best lap time, with 51 seconds. Now the Evil Genius is driving, and he’s also fast as hell. However, the level of competition is getting ratcheted up, tempers are flaring a bit out there, and we’re dishing out and receiving some damage in the heat of the action; the front suspension just needed some major toe adjustments after a bit of mutual metal grunching with our friend Xarg’s Cavalier wagon. Sorry, guys! Meanwhile, the Porcubimmer, after leading for a while yesterday, has been de-quilled by various mechanical maladies; full report later.
