Default Loren's report from 24 hours of lemons detroit

They are going into the night shift currently in 18th place (about 40 laps out of top 10)

They are experiencing a transmission problem that has them stuck in 2nd gear on a track that needs 3rd.. they have a spare transmission ready to go in, but we know from experience even a FAST swap of 1.5 hours will put them down 100+ laps. so they are going to run the car in 2nd until it breaks for good.

other then a few small issues with a corroding fuel cell and a vacuum nipple failing, they are doing quite well.

it really gets interesting during the overnight runs at these small ovals. I wish those guys the best of luck.
