Highlights for this episode include:
1)\xa0 Tim\u2019s response to the three primary (false) criticisms of racing in the 24 Hours of Lemons series:\xa0 safety culture, driver skill, and the quality of cars.\xa0 The cars are usually criticized for both being junk and for being too racey, a difficult thing to do at the same time, lol.
2)\xa0 The weather was a series of just about everything except hot.\xa0 Tim was also exposed to 110 cars on track Saturday during a snowstorm, sleet, rain, muddy track, etc.\xa0 A true trial by fire in all the best ways.
3)\xa0 Vicki was out for a quick Friday practice to acclimate to the front wheel drive car and shake off some winter cobwebs.\xa0 Mother nature thought she was doing so well that she decided to bequeath unto Vicki almost an inch of sloppy snow/hail during her lap.\xa0 Vicki returned the favor and trimmed some of the grass for her as well.
4)\xa0 Tim was also able to cross off almost every type of weather during his Saturday stint.\xa0 However, we still give him a little good natured ribbing about his two black flags.
5)\xa0 The rest of the weekend was something you needed to be there to truly understand.
