.....go to the race I just got some hours at work and I had to cover a shift for someone that just quit. But my brother still plans on going. I will be rooting for you from Houston Go Team Sensory Assault!!!

 

Dammit, I really wanted to check out the first Lemons race in my neck of the woods but some dumbass put it on the same weekend as the Indycar race at Texas Motor Speedway. I'd go to the Lemons on sunday, but I know from experience that all day at TMS on Saturday is going to wipe me out, and I'm going because I have free tickets...

 

I'm hungry

 

That's real messed up, I don't know why people can't get a job and buy there own crap!!! sorry to hear that man!!

 

I'll probably be out there sunday, good luck guys! and it's def gonna be a hot one lol.

 

I see that you're new and you obviously have not met 7dust in person... Take everything he says with * minimum* a box of salt, and in most cases a or

 

i was out there today for a couple hours, saw you guys get towed off once :P
it was an experience lol.
when i got home my accords engine was spewing out smoke from burning oil. i think it caught a disease from your LeMons! D:


also. what happened to yalls hood?

 

Unknown, where were you at? I didn't see you there (was rocking my zoomfest shirt so was hard to miss lol). Had a great time meeting and hanging out with everyone. sensory assault - you guys are two thumbs up in my book, and hope to see yall again. Good luck getting the car ready for Houston!

I'll post pics from the event later tonight.
-Justin

 

How nice of you not calling Justin, you are so
I thought you were going to coordinate with me to go today, thanks 4 nothing, ****.

 

Whoa whoa whoa! your phone doesn't work remember! I sent you a message last night saying that I was leaving at 11 to catch the end of it and you didn't reply back so figured you didn't want to go. Then you sent me an email saying your phone didn't work wayyy after I got back. You can't pin this one on me old man!

 

me and two of my friends were sitting on the grass under some shade producing poles and tarp, they were held together with duct tape in some places lol.

but it was on the hill right behind the pit lane exit, farthest shady spot to the left(or right depending on your perspective)
we left at like 1ish because we didn't come prepared. no seats or water is bad.

 

Haha I was standing right by you then for part of it I think. I was up on that hill taking pictures. and pfff who needs water or seats, that stuffs a crutch.

 

you were standing on your cars roof werent you?
my friend was like "did he just show up to take pictures?"
cuz you just like drove up, took a bunch of pictures then drove away.

we were up there at 10:30, so after 4 ish hours, water starts to sound reallllllllll nice.

 

nah that wasn't me. I was only there a couple hours so it might have been after you had already left.

Here's pics of the event with plenty of Sensory Assault

 

We were having some problems keeping the car cool enough to drive, so Chuck and Scott in their all-mighty wisdom decided to take the hood off and do some duct work! Man that thing was fun to drive, that was one fun, but ridiculously hot race! Thanks again guys, that was the most fun Ive had in a very very long time!

That was me getting towed off. The alternator bit the dust, and after i took a turn just a tad too fast and spun it out, she wouldn't start back up again. I'm sure they will chime in and tell y'all all about it!

After all that Im definitely going to try and field a team for Houston, hopefully by September things will have cooled down a bit....

 

 

 

i regret not going down to the pits and seeing the cars and talking to team sensory assault.
question, when someone walks into the pit, do yall all scream?

 

We didn't come home empty handed. We FINALLY collected the hundred bucks from Jay he bet us several races ago. We had zero trips to the penalty box!

Oh yeah - we have added the fourth trophy to our collection: Most Heroic Fix
Our electrical system was d-e-a-d. Starter was a quitter and the car's battery was so dead the car couldn't be push started. SO - Chuck hooked the jumper cables to a battery on the golf cart and push started the car WITH THE GOLF CART DRIVING BESIDE THE CAR.

Had a great time visiting with everyone that came out.

I'm really kind of disappointed that I never could keep the generator running, the air horns horny, and the air brake braking. There has to be about 50 points of failure in that mess we carry in the back of our car but thats why I LOVE IT!

At the very least, we did get mad kudos from Jay for the ribs we cooked on the exhaust.

Albert - if you ever get the Rabid Beaver car running, promise me I get to take a lap in it. Oh yeah - I'm going to pay your *** back and rub off YOUR mirror on the car next to me.

We have a long list of stuff to do now before the September race in Houston.

Jay quit looking at all the clever diversions we placed in the car and decided he wanted some modifications done to our cage.

Our windshield needs replaced. I guess we need to find the cheapest one in Houston. Anyone know a super cheap place to come out and replace it? We don't even care if it leaks obviously. As long as it doesn't fall out when we stop, its all good.

We need ANOTHER starter. WTF???

Alternator seems to have quit on us.

Our cooling system needs looked at. It didn't like the 100+ degree weather and being driven briskly up hills.

I think a valet (or Albert) fucked up our front wheel somewhat in a small collision.

*I* am investing in a cool suit and a multi-layer driving suit so I can legally ditch the nomex underwear. For the record - it was sooooo ******* hot, I was secretly not wearing any underwear!

 

For ice cream? of course! but if you're being serious then I have no idea what you're referring to.....

 

crappy cell vid. for some reason it got cut off a bit early. oh well

it was a blast getting out there and meeting you guys. those ribs were tasty

 

did chuck off road the starter again? And I hope the hood flew off, or did ya'll take it off?

 

Hey guys! What year and model starter do you need? I'll check to see what i got.

 

What happened on the last couple of laps of the race? I saw the car was off track and not moving. did it die or just went off and couldn't get it going again?

 

We took the hood of and made a plywood panel to keep air from flowing up an over the radiator. It took the temps down about 15 to 20 degrees actually.

We need a 2nd gen automatic transmission starter OR a turbo starter. Either will work.

Chuck ran out of gas about 2 laps short of the checkered flag. I saw him go by the front straight in what sounded like 7th gear since the car was running on fumes. He made it a little further and the car crapped out on the wrong side of the blind turn in the back.

Just so no one would nail his *** coming from over that hill, he steered it pretty far off course and I was hoping for at least a good grass fire - but no luck, they just left him there until the race was finished. Hey - I was there with my kids when he was towed in and we gave him a standing ovation!
