Lemons Judge Series – Judge Craig “Craiggers” Ledbetter

GHiT 0493:  Lemons Judge Series – Judge Craig “Craiggers” Ledbetter

The Lemons Judge series continues with Judge Craiggers.  He is a racer and a judge and is in need of coming to our garage to help with all of our Honda race cars.  In spite of having been on two times previously, he agreed to come back on for the judge series.  We talked about setting up a seat swap site and then stumble upon the story of Craiggers inviting Ben to his first ever Lemons race.  Details within.

Please welcome Judge Craiggers to the podcast.

Racing Classes – Builder’s vs Driver’s Classes

DwD 0476:  Racing Classes – Builder’s Classes vs Driver’s Classes (Jeremy Fills In)

There are generically two different types of racing series.  One is a builder’s class where you can build and enter almost anything that complies with a fairly open rule book.  Other racing classes are more specific on what cars and modification are allowed and focus more on the difference being largely due to the driver skill and relatively less on the car build.  Spec class racing is usually more of a driver’s class type of racing.  We discuss some of the differences between these two types of series and help show the advantages and disadvantages of each.  Probably the first part of many in this area.
