We're going to be racing a 24 Hours of LeMons race at Infineon Raceway the last weekend of March with the Petty Cash Racing blue XJ. This will be the 4th or 5th race for Team Petty Cash in the Petty blue Cherokee. I raced it in Dec at Buttonwillow and had a blast! Matt Adair has raced 4 or 5 races. It's amazing how well the XJ does. At Buttonwillow in Dec we placed 32nd out of 170 and came in 1st in our class. Tons of fun!

Would be cool if some of you were interested in coming and watching us race one day, and hanging out and drinking a few brewskis after the race. :cheers:


Here's some race info:

Yeah, like Goatman said the road race Cherokee rides again March 25th, 26th, 27th! C'mon out to the race track on Friday if you want to just hang out (we'll be there all day teching the car and doing last minute prep...in other words, all our prep), racing starts at 10:00 am Saturday and goes until about 5:30, then starts back up Sunday at 9:00 am and goes until about 6:00.

This event is lots and lots of fun, but pretty serious racing all the same...we'll be hitting over 100 mph on the main straight...in a $200 XJ.

Im gonna try to make it out there if I get off work early enough. Any chance of getting in the pits?
 
Awesome, so the $20 general access tickets get me into the pits as well?
When does the racing start?
 
Seeing as I live in Sonoma, I think I'll show up in my NAXJA shirt. Saturday or Sunday. If you don't mind a couch and a 5 month old kid, I could probably let someone stay the night if need be.

Make sure to look us up at the track. Thanks for the offer of the couch, but we'll be camping at the track this year.

Looks like a lot of rain on Sat, and there are 180 cars entered in the race... :helpme:

Should be fun and exciting. :D

It's fun to walk through the pits at a LeMons race, all the teams have crazy themes and everyone's having a good time. Hops to see a few of you there.

Matt and the guys had the motor out of the car yesterday, and he's leaving this morning........we'll see how that goes. :)
 
Richard, it's not a rain....it's a monsoon.
No kidding, and the last I heard they were in portland about an hour and a half ago . . . still have a lot of driving over Grant's Pass, the Siskiyou Mountian's and then past Mount Shasta.

I hope to go Sears Point tomorrow, hang out, make fun, might spend the night.
 
I have two. In my parents garage, in the east bay. My dad is out of town, and my mom has no idea what the heck a power steering anything even is.:smsoap:


How the heck do you mess up the pully and not the box?




Good luck guys, find a Cherokee in the parking lot and rob it of its parts!
