In the 24 Hours of LeMons race at Thunderhill last December, we watched a Nissan Sentra SE-R place fifth (if not for a wheel stud failure, they'd have done even better). We thought the Krider team members were pretty cool guys, so it was great to see them at Altamont; this time their ride was an Acura Integra with a grisly horror-movie theme. They drove consistently quick laps, didn't break down or get destroyed by a big Mopar, and their pit stops were very efficient... and now they've got a trophy to show for it. Congratulations, Krider Racing! galleryPost('LemonsAlt08Winner', 14, 'Krider Racing Death Proof Wins 24 Hours of LeMons');

When you go check out the lap times for the 24 Hours of LeMons race of last weekend, an interesting figure jumps out at you: 1:13.649 seconds. That's the quickest lap time of any car at the race, and it was not set by the overall winner, nor by the #2 or #3 cars; in fact, it's nearly four seconds faster than race winners Team Red Meat and Poontang's Mazda's best lap. Meet the #4 finishing car, the Acura Integra run by Team Fantasy Junction/InAccuracy! We're not shocked by this car's crazy-fast lap- not after seeing how quick a similar Integra was at the Altamont race (sadly, that Acura dropped some connecting rods on the track, which slowed it down considerably). The lesson here seems to be: consistency, not speed, wins this race. galleryPost('THL09', 6, 'Team InAccuracy Breaks Off The Quickest Lap At Thunderhill');
