GHIT 0095:  Nick Pon of the 24 Hours of Lemons team returns to kick off the 2020 season Nick Pon returns to our podcast to discuss the current 2020 season for the 24 Hours of Lemons series and the various new aspects of the series for 2020.  As usual, we digress several times and wander around our subject, but Nick very kindly tolerates us for unknown reasons.  We eventually go into what the series is about and how welcoming it can be to everyone who has an interest in racing and how to get started within the series.  There is even a new driver bonus program for 2020. If you would be so kind, please Rate, Review, and Subscribe to our podcast on your favorite listening platform.  We would greatly appreciate it.    Some of the highlights for this episode include: 1)  We cover the first two races of the year at Barber and Inde in Arizona and the first rally from Moscow to Paris 2)  What to do if a plane lands on the track 3)  The return of the Scrotium race at Road Atlanta and the usual snowy race to end the season 4)  Any upcoming things, themes, cars, and tracks 5)  Novel ways of staying outside the black flag area 6)  The two 24 hours races and why we may never get one in the north east, but we do get the Hooptiecon at NJMP again this year 7)  Cars, themes, and theming requests for current and future teams 8)  We begin a program to get Lemons into VIR 9)  An intro to Lemons in case you aren’t familiar with the series and its welcoming climate 10)  What car does Nick want to race in from the series 11)  We explain to our younger listeners how cars were bought using a thing called the “paper” 12)  Our podcast tradition of picking on Alan has its latest installment or three 13)  Nick new moniker as “The Place Setter” and helps us with our travel race schedule 14)  Nick gets subjected to several of our newer questions related to his car proclivities 15)  We go a bit out of our normal order on this episode but following the rules isn’t really our strong suit 16)  A semi-subtle shout out to our friend Erling 17)  We go into our never-ending battle with our BMW E36 rear hub and bearing 18)  Vicki leads a discussion of tool drawer organizing techniques, strategies, and options.  We will be putting several posts on our website if you are interested. 19)  Vicki steals Alan’s section and gives her first ever Batcave Tool of the Week 20)  Alan shows the importance of following the process and the order of the operations 21)  We then go into a long discussion of some of the issues we have been having with removing the rear hubs from the E36 race car   In our Dominating with Dawson segment, Ben goes into a discussion of the black flag penalty box, what happens, and how to handle it properly.      Best regards,   Bill, Vicki, Jennifer, and Alan Hosts of the Garage Heroes In Training podcast and team members in the GHiT Immature Endurance Racing Team

Our 2019 NJMP Lightning Race Review with the 24 Hours of Lemons series includes:  Quick review of the Lightning track Review Alan’s many visits to the Black flag area this weekend Some flagging issues we saw We had a few self-induced incidents and a few outside influences during the race It was Kate’s first race Podcast Reviews finally, Thank you.  Arrival with two not fully working cars set us back for the weekend and we really never caught back up Shout out once or twice to Judge Craigers We had a few issues with the Cars, mostly because we came with not fully finished cars Jennifer was in a tunnel during the episode Car highlights included Speedy Cop’s new Aquarium via 2 AMC Pacers, the Big Bad Caddy and “Wurst Shifter” pit vehicle, Race Bar Car, Godzilla, the new Three Pedal Mafia race car, Matt’s new Surfin' Bird T-Bird, Mom Rocket team for keeping that grassy spot very clean all weekend, The racing Hudson, and the Sunbeam.  Many shout outs to all the teams there, we only mentioned a few of them, but everyone was great.  We were passed by many if not all of you who were there, Track was easier but aggression What should be our team penalty for getting black flags?  Any suggestions welcomed.  Please leave a comment.  We end with our traditional Good, Bad, and the Ugly, as well as what did we learn from this event. Kate kept up with Black Betty for 5 laps!  It would have been slightly more impressive if they weren’t yellow flag laps, lol.  We all also learned how to fill a hot tub with a pickup truck Our results from NJMP were that El Jeffe/The Hombre/The Race Truck finished 60th overall out of 133 and 25th in B out of 68 cars with a fastest lap of 1:29.082.  The Spider-Stang finished 105th overall and 49th in B with a fastest lap 1:36.75 by our guest driver Matt
