24 Hours Of Lem`ons(sic)

[ROKTMAN]

I have already became an associate sponser of the car .There will be a Roktman Racing logo on the car.




Here is the story: Over a year ago, I learned of an endurance race held in California named "The 24 Hours of LeMons". The name is obviously a parody of the historic "24 Hours of LeMans" race. The rules dictate that your car have a total investment of no more than $500, excluding tires, brakes, and safety equipment - hence the "LeMons" race. I tried to put a team of "Impala Guys" together to participate, but could not find anyone on the west coast that was able to take the lead. I couldn't do it from TN due to the distance, so I gave up.

A few months ago, I learned that the race organizers added a second race in Detroit. Well hell, that's only a day's drive from here! So I again attempted to put together a team of Impala enthusiasts. The result is that we now have a team compoased of 6 ISSCA members from TN, GA, NJ, and IL that have committed both their finances and time. Here is our team: Terry Kehne, Bob Fandetti, Chris Nickell, Chris Mallory, Allen Mirse, and Mark Sulimirski.

The race organizer told me that there are always more entries than available starting spots, so the more we could do to make our team concept interesting, the better change that we had of being accepted in the race. So our team collectively devised "Rubber Biscuit Racing" and I submitted our entry in late April.

Although we knew that we would not learn if we were accepted or not until after the July 15th entry deadline, I purchased a car for our entry back in May. We've been waiting to start the work on it until we knew of our acceptance. Late last night, I recieved notice that our team entry has been accepted - we are IN the race! Rubber Biscuit Racing is alive! Following is the webpage for this event:

We are doing this for charity and are solicting both donations (tax deductible) and sponsorships (both individual and corporate). Our goal is to raise at least $5000 for a charity - "Cure Autism Now". Some of you know that I have an 18-year old daughter with autism, so this charity hits very close to home.

Following is the "flyer" that we will use to solicit donations and sponsorships. If any of you feel moved to help us, we would greatly appreciate your donation. Thank you for your consideration!

Dave - Thanks again for your donation and for posting this to help spread the word! We are now selling team tee-shirts to raise additional revenue for the charity - still a long way to go. Here are the details for the shirts if you are interested in one:

PRICE: $25 shipped
COLORS: Yellow or Grey
SIZES: M, L, XL, XXL, XXXL

PAYMENTS:
Paypal - fasst94impala@bellsouth.net
Mail order - Make checks payable to Mark Sulimirski and mail to:
Rubber Biscuit Racing
C/O Mark Sulimirski
4402 Brickton Spur
Buford, GA 30518

Be sure to include Quantity, Color, Name and shipping address on the
order.

The "shipped" price is the same whether you order one shirt or multiples. Remember the proceeds are for the charity. On single shirt orders we'll make a little less and on multiple orders we'll make a little more for the charity kitty. But this helps keep the math simple.

This is a "pre-order" so it will probably be a week or so before the shirts ship out.

Thanks,
Terry
