Race Review of Thompson 2022

GHIT 0363 Race Review of Thompson 2022 with the 24 Hours of Lemons

We entered three cars into this year’s 24 Hours of lemons race with the Honda Civic/Cookie Car still limping after our GridLife event, the El Jeffe/Bad Hombre/Trophy Truck/Chevy S10/Isuzu Hombre etc. prepped and ready for battle, and the MooStang/SpiderStang/1984 Mustang GT Turbo locked and loaded, almost. This weekend was another hot and humid August race at the Thompson Motor Speedway, and we had a true Good, Bad, and the Ugly weekend. We had another great weekend with all our friends at the track and we met a whole bunch more. We cannot wait to get back on track again. The team is in full post race hangover mode and some of our thoughts may not be directly related to what we said though our mouths. Sounds like a normal podcast episode. This week’s hosts and drivers are Jennifer, Vicki, Jeremy, and Tim B.

All race weekends are great fun but sometimes things just don’t go your way. What are the stories from this weekend? Does anything go correctly for Bill at the event? How did Bill’s helmet grow? Could Bill have survived without the help of Tim and Reese? Tune in to find out.

Race Recap: GHiT’s Ladies Team

– Racing our 1993 Honda Civic at NJMP Thunderbolt with the 24 Hours of Lemons series

GHIT 0344: Race Recap: GHIT’s Ladies Team Raced In our 1993 Honda Civic

Our first ever race was at NJMP’s Thunderbolt track with 24 Hours of Lemons and seems to be a lifetime ago. We started out knowing nothing and that was probably being kind. At this year’s event, GHiT’s Ladies Team entered our 1993 Honda Civic with its full theme to thank the Everyone Racers podcast for all their help getting us started and helping us ever since. Vicki and Jennifer raced with two of the hosts from the Shifting Points podcast at this event. Audra had raced once with us last year and this was Jess’s first ever wheel to wheel racing event. How did the event go? Did the ladies Dominate? Was the theme a bit overdone?

This year we did it all for the Cookie. Until it was stolen. More details to follow soon.

Live Race Update – from 2022 NJMP Thunderbolt

GHiT 0343: Live Race Update from the 2022 NJMP Thunderbolt Race with the 24 Hours of Lemons

In a short, mostly live episode from the 2022 NJMP Thunderbolt paddock, Vicki and Jen are joined by Audra and Jess from the Shifting Points podcast to talk about day 1 of this years 24 Hours of Lemons race. The ladies were driving in our 1993 Honda Civic DX that had a tribute livery to our friends at the Everyone Racers podcast and the Three Pedal Mafia, along with Chrissy and Chris’s Mom (and Dad). If you know, you know. Audio quality was a bit off as we were outside and had several friends come by to “help” with the podcast.

It was a great weekend and we will have our normal wrap up episode as soon as we can. As always, the race hangover is real.

Alex on PittRace with AER and Lemons

GHIT 0325: Race Review – Alex on Our Back to Back Race Weekends at PittRace with AER and Lemons

Alex Levinson drove both weekends for the team from the Skunk Oil Racing/Garage Heroes In Training team and missed our earlier reviews, so he gets to go over both weekends’ trials and tribulations. At the AER event, the team performed well on Saturday and finished P2 in our class and P4 on Sunday. The next weekend at PittRace was a 24 Hours of Lemons race and Alex drove with Dave and Jeremy for the weekend. It all started out well enough, but there were a couple of issues during the Lemons weekend, some minor and some major. Everyone came out safe and sound though.
