24 Hours of Le Mons

24 Hours Of Le Mons

The 24 Hours of LeMons is a series of endurance races held on paved road race courses across the United States.

The title is a parody of the historic 24 Hours of Le Mans series. Teams compete in race-prepared cars that cost no more than US$500 (i.e., lemons) for up to 24 hours. These races set themselves apart from the typical road race by the unusual penalties and punishments meted out by judges.

Famous quotes containing the word hours:

    In the middle of the night, as indeed each time that we lay on the shore of a lake, we heard the voice of the loon, loud and distinct, from far over the lake. It is a very wild sound, quite in keeping with the place and the circumstances of the traveler, and very unlike the voice of a bird. I could lie awake for hours listening to it, it is so thrilling.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
