• Jalopnik-Powered Toyota Celica Back Up And Running In The Early Morning Light At LeMons "Detroit" [24 Hours Of Lemons]

  Some heroic late-night wrenching — and a quick trip an hour north to Detroit — after yesterday's disastrous loss of a front wheel — has helped the #99 Celica get back on the track here at the Toledo-Detroit LeMons race. Jalopnik intern Andy Didorosi was at the helm when the Celica (and its Swedish roof) hit the track again around 6:30 AM. We're sure we'll have more details later this morning, as this Jalop was only able to make it down to the race for a quick one-hour check-in.

• Jalopnik Celica Gets Into Race After Heroic Fix, Goes On Black Flag Binge [24 Hours Of Lemons]

  The '88 Celica GT-S , manned by Jalopnoids Andy Didorosi and Ben Wojdyla, showed up for tech inspection three hours and 22 minutes after the race began, then proceeded to rack up three black flags for what TheEastBayKid calls "hitting stuff." He also says they're "pretty quick when they're out there." And… oh, no! Late-breaking news from the track says the Celica "blew a hub and launched the wheel," and had to be dragged off the track. Damn! Posted Sep 13 2008, 03:15 PM by Jalopnik Filed under: Racing, Toyota, hoonage, 24 hours of lemons, Celica, 24 Hours Of Lemons Toledo
