24-Hour HPR, Lemons Penalties & a Barbie Power Wheels DUI

What happens when grassroots endurance racing meets road-trip mishaps, late-night wrenching, and a news story about a guy getting busted in a pink Power Wheels? This episode of Everyone Racers brings pure chaos and comedy—from a 24-hour grind at High Plains Raceway (HPR) to last-minute prep for NCM Motorsports Park, plus Lemons judging tales you won’t believe.

🔥 In this Oldsmobile 403 episode, with so much bore, Mental talks us through NCM , Tim traverses our Nation, Chrissy skips news and notes but encourages you not to take your Barbie jeep to get a Slurpee while drunk and Chris practices the Lotus position

Really it’s;

• HPR 24-Hour recap: sleep-deprived pit life, teams grinding through the night, and why endurance always beats ego.• Wrenching a Miata-powered Lotus back to life: fuel rail diagnostics, Amazon parts mix-ups, vacuum leaks, coil packs, and the moment it finally coughs awake.• Trailer & travel shenanigans: overloaded rigs, moving garages, and the eternal “will it make it to grid?” question.• Lemons judging stories: penalty laps, “stop bringing fast cars,” and the day a Nash Metropolitan with borrowed lights turned more laps than the big-money cheaty Mustang build.• Geo Metro vs. Mustang: why the slow car that keeps turning laps is the real threat.• Toyota plant Camry team: organized like engineers… until penalty math hits.• Wheels falling off? Yep—why attention to basics wins races (and saves weekends).• News & notes: a Canadian “Barbie” Power Wheels DUI that proves bad ideas travel fast.

This isn’t polished pro racing. It’s amateur motorsports the way we live it: friends, duct tape, midnight fixes, smoked-meat potlucks, and stories that only make sense in the paddock. If you’re an amateur racer, mechanic, or automotive enthusiast who loves 24 Hours of Lemons, endurance racing, and car-culture comedy, you’re in the right place.
