For the most dedicated fans of Lemons, certain types of vehicles are always a good idea of British cars naturally American Motors undoubtedly products Comfy, prestigious luxury cars airplane Vans and, of course, we love cars of the nation that gave us Panhard and hydropneumatic suspension system France Here Sá short history of French machinery of the 24 hours of LeMons.
Like the French manufacturers were the first innovators in the early days of the automobile, a French car in the first race held in 2006 Lemons Altamont Speedway Motor The winner was a Corolla, but the class of the event came courtesy of the red-white-and-blue Peugeot 505 GL fabulous frogs.
This car has been crucial in getting your Lemons corresponding interested in the first series; I saw this car being prepared at a gas station in Berkeley thought a racing series that accept this car should be good, requested information and eventually the Carlin-painted French flag led me to don the robes of the LeMons Supreme Court fabulous car frogs took a beating within infamous Altamont bending metal, but acquitted himself well.
Some time passed before another team felt worthy campaign a French car in the 24 Hours of LeMons In 2008, a group of car freaks Francophiles in the Pacific Northwest got a diamond in the rough Peugeot 505 Turbo car which outperformed the BMW E30 325i and had a lower price tag, like all Peugeot 505 owners in North America will tell you and became the capitulationists monkeys eat cheese.
The beginnings of Pujo the team doubled their car was made in 2008 race Ass Freeze-a-Palooza at Thunderhill, but an unfortunate accident to overthrow the tow vehicle has postponed the appearance of PUJO on the scene until Lemons 'that the Goin' for Broken race 2009 Reno-Fernley Raceway.
With Stig French, French flags and a French Surrender monkey, the monkeys capitulationists Eating cheese is a good start.
PUJO out to be quite fast on the race track and maintained with many of its E30 rivals parts broke, oil spill, but capitulationists monkeys amassed a finishing 33rd respectable place in their first race since then, the capitulationists monkeys were by far the fastest car in French Lemons race.
After that, the rest of the world Lemons saw the inherent greatness of the French race cars and we started to see more of them The Alliance Renault F-ing showed up Thunderhill with every good suspension parts suspicious, then proceeded to jump early and often.
Prime eagle based on a Renault chassis Renault 25 with the suspension 21, was one of the American engines last throes and continued to serve as a basis for the Chrysler LH platform highly successful One such story The first and only first Minister Lemons appeared to Lamest infamous day in Nelson Ledges and proved very reliable compared to Lemons standards.
The Peugeot 504 has a worldwide reputation for bulletproof construction and reliability, boasting a production that lasted from 1968 to 2005 in Nigeria, 2009 New England race at Stafford Motor Speedway, the Safari Taxi Company decided they d make them even better 504 with a V6 PRV swap it did not want t work so well, but we still have high hopes that more teams choose to run 504s.
Renault The Renault 5 to you Europeans sold wholesale to a French car numbers in the United States, it was only a matter of time before an ambitious Lemons team found one and made a racing machine on Crewe road Pewe had a sad face turning to their the Car at the 2010 Gator-O-Rama race at MSR Houston, but returned in 2010 Yeehaw It's Texas race and took the first prize of race lemons index We Effluency are sure that there was much to celebrate in Paris that evening.
Then LeMons Legend Spank manufacturer of those memorable Lemons champions like diesel powered oil-veggie Corvette index Effluency winning Harley-engined Hell Treehuggers Toyota Prius has opted for ante in French Lemons racing in racing Citroen DS actually an ID19 for you Citroën fussy.
He found a very, very rough 72, who had been sitting for at least 20 years, caged it, brought to the race Sears Pointless 2010 started for the first time in the paddock, and ran him the weekend with very little problems Index Effluency course.
To the end of 2010 season race in Florida packed Spank Citroen and drove 2,600 miles from San Diego to Palm Beach course it broke down a few times, but the DS has done in time for the green flag, ran most of the race and won the Fix Spank more heroic.
Meanwhile, in Colorado, the real rocket science behind Rocket Surgery Racing earned a 1956 Renault 4CV and is to go with the cut and paste the result of this little beast motor, which brought home to both the choice and the s Effluency trophies organizer for his team.
The Rocket 4CV surgery, with its Volkswagen engine mid-mounted, transaxle Audi, BMW suspension 2800, etc. is one of the best engineered cars in LeMons races, and we have a deep look at this car in near future .
Not to be outdone by Coloradans, Los Bastardos Racing Texas obtained a Renault Dauphine and dropped a quad cam, 208 hp Ford Duratec V-6 it This car still needs some bugs worked, but it shows a lot promises on the race track.
TARP Racing Texas placed the body in a Simca 1000 on a Toyota MR2 chassis, we think in fact French naturalization.
Having acquired a taste for the French race cars, Spank managed to unearth a 1971 Simca 1204 which was sold by Chrysler dealers alongside Mitsubishi Galant badged as Dodge Colt and Hillman Avengers badged as Plymouth crickets and brought to the 2011 Goin 'for Broken race at Reno- Fernley Raceway Simca suffered numerous mechanical ills in this race and did a lot of limping around the track, but he came back strong at the 2011 Ass Sweat-a-Palooza and won the index Effluency If you noticed a pattern here, it's that the French cars have a big advantage in the race for the IOE trophy.
Spank Simca sold the team to the Midwest, led by a man named Soggy and continues to compete and tore to date.
On the East Coast, Punisher GP Racing somehow found two Peugeot 405 Mi16 s, and they've been running the pair of them with varying degrees of success.
The Mi16 is a front wheel drive car very fast with a nervous 16-valve engine that tends to explode dramatically Earlier this year, we were all impressed by the sight of one of these cars shooting a rod through the front WINDSCREENS Celica behind.
Yet Punisher GP more glory to France by winning the C class with the 405 Mi16.
