FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Sebring, FL (02.17.10): Professional drivers, John Dean and Johnny Kanavas of J-sport Racing up with for the 24 Hours of Lemons, Houston: February 20-21 at Houston Motorsports Ranch. Joining forces with J-Sport Racing will be the drivers of the ProMoMoSpeed Racing Team, Steve Molnar and Dianne Mould. Molnar and Mould bring experience from Viper Days racing and the Skip Barber Mazda MX-5 race series, but are brand new to endurance racing. The two teams join forces as the Tracknights team for the 24 Hours of Lemons, Houston 2010. Also joining the team will be crew member, Dylan Nelson.
The 24 Hours of LeMons is an endurance road race, restricted to cars that were purchased, fixed up, and track-prepped for total of $500 or less. Because more teams than entry slots are sent in for each event, each Lemons team is required to submit a “team theme” as part of their application for the race. While being serious racers, the Tracknights team went with the theme of mimicking Team Audi Sport/Joest, the most successful sports car endurance team of the modern era. This simply means that their car’s livery will be similar to that of the legendary Audi racers, while the team will perform with the same focus, preparation and motivation of that of Team Audi/Joest.
The car Tracknights chose for this grueling endurance test is a 1992 Toyota Paseo. The Paseo is a small, sporty and very lightweight vehicle with nimble handling. The team has installed all the necessary safety equipment and put quite a few hours into prepping the car for the race.
“We have been really looking forward to this event. It will be fun to share a car with the ProMoMoSpeed drivers. We also need to thank Projections Research for supporting our effort. It’s sure to be a fun event.” commented Johnny Kanavas and John Dean.
The 14-hour event (no, it’s not actually a 24-hour race) will be held at Houston Motorsports Ranch, this coming weekend (Feb. 20-21) in Houston, TX, with nine hours of racing on Saturday and an additional five on Sunday for the teams that make it through the on or off-track carnage.
The Tracknights team has setup a blog chronicling both the car preparation and race event weekend. To follow the team’s progress, please visit: http://tracknights.blogspot.com/
