Just finished the 24hrs of LeMons at Thunderhill!

12/29 and 12/30. Total blast. Our team finished 17th out of 71 entrants. We had no severe incidents and the only failure on the '95 1.8L Impreza Wagon was a cheap thermostat that failed closed running the water temp up for a minute or two. Easy fix to cut out the valve and run it with no thermostat.

Total blast. In-car video will be posted in the next couple of days! I got close to 4 hours of seat time!

Cheers,
LWW
