    I've used the "How Not to Fail Tech" guide as an example of how to write instructions for manufacturing; and my team was pretty proud when Jay teched us at our first event and he said, "Wow! You guys actually read the rules! Nice job." I gotta get back in the Lemons game...

    in the Lemons iRacing skins, there is a default "Car Numbers R Hard" sticker already applied to the cars in the regular numbers spot.

      Lemons weekends are about 30 percent functioning cars on the track and 70 percent broken cars surrounded by exposed buttcracks.

      No no--if you have different numbers on both doors and the roof, you get 3x the lap count. Little known hack.

      But they don't specify if the numbers can be upside down depending what side you are reading from. I mean, c'mon, that's hard......

    Not only have we failed at every rule mentioned in this video at one point or another (and more), some of the rules in the rulebook come from our car being terrible in ways that were perviously unanticipated. We're definitely better now than we were way back when we started in 2009 though. The real secret to passing tech at lemons is to remember to bring your tech sheet already filled out and the secret to doing that is to fill out all but the track on one tech sheet, make a bunch of copies of that, then leave the stack in the glovebox of your tow vehicle.

    • @jaylamm8698

    Would it be possible to make a quick cut vid of a random entry's inspection process to show it all being checked off? Would be educational as well as pretty funny to hear excuses.
    Could be like a gameshow where a lemons team win a 'i can read' badge on a 100% tech pass.
