The 24 Hours of LeMons

If you are looking for a fun, car-oriented outing for the weekend of December 27-28, 2008, you can't go wrong with The 24 Hours of Lemons' ARSE-FREEZE-APALOOZA at Thunderhill Raceway in Willows, CA. Here's what ARSE-FREEZE-APALOOZA is all about, according to the website:

Each LeMons race is for cars purchased, fixed up, and track-prepped for a total
of 500 dollars or less. But before reaching the grid, you'll have to survive
trials like the Personal-Injury-Lawyer Anti-Slalom, the Marxist-Valet Parking
Challenge, and the Wide Open Throttle Rodthrowapalooza. Twelve hours into the
race, the car voted People’s Choice is called in and awarded a cash prize;
simultaneously, the car voted People’s Curse is called in and summarily
destroyed. At the end of 24 hours, a gala awards ceremony plies the survivors
with trophies, plaques, and four-figure purses in canvas bags full of nickels.
