  • I didn’t drive this day as I had 2 sessions on my first day.
    Smooth day as ended up mounting Walmart tires on the car and lost 4th gear. Slight contact at the end but with some camber correction and fender rolling we ended up 6th in out class and 40th over all.
    We also go a cool looking trophy for being chill dudes.
    Index of Effluency (or IOE) is the top prize awarded in the 24 Hours of LeMons automotive racing series. General criteria to win this award is a car that is too unreliable to be driven effectively on the streets yet manages to complete a decent number of laps on the race track. IOE can be awarded to a vehicle that was deemed unreliable from the factory (e.g. Volkswagen Karmann Ghia) or a more reliable car with an unwise engine transplant (e.g. Ford Thunderbird with a BMW diesel engine). The award is named after the "Index of Thermal Efficiency", a prize briefly given in LeMons' namesake the 24 Hours of Le Mans to the car that scored the highest based on a complex formula that took into account car weight, fuel usage and average speed.
