our first 24 hour race

Just applied to try to be part of GOIN’ FOR BROKEN 2011, a real 24-hour race. I’m imagining what it will be like to wake up at 3am, climb into a car, and go out on a race track with other foolish people. They run this one 10am-10am. Should be an experience of a lifetime.

Here was my application.

Team Judge Busters, Plaintiff, by Christopher Blizzard, and his attorneys,
sues the defendant, Reno-Fernley Raceway, and in support, states as follows:

PREAMBLE

1. Team Judge Busters, Plaintiff, is a resident of California.
2. Reno-Fernley Raceway, Defendant, is a resident of Nevada.
3. The defendant is currently a resident of Fernley, Nevada.
4. This action arises from a road race, scheduled to occur on May 14, 2011
through May 15, 2011.  This event will not take place on public roads.

STATEMENT OF FACTS

5. This road race is a 24 hour race, without breaks and without mercy.  The
Judge Busters team is currently scheduled to run their very first race at
Sears Pointless, yet sees yet another opportunity for risk and stupidity on
display in the desert wasteland of Nevada.  This dubious opportunity is
enough to raise the interests of these several drivers who will make the journey
to partake in the pointless exercise of chasing other, similarly
intellectually-challenged teams around a track, passing the same point over and
over again, accomplishing nothing and proving even less.

COUNT ONE

Plaintiff, Team Judge Busters realleges and incorporates by reference all those
facts and allegations in paragraphs 1 through 5 above and futher alleges:

6. This action is reckless and dangerous, and only fools are likely to participate.
  a. That Team Judge Busters is populated by said fools.
  b. That should the car hold together, the Team will complete said race.
  c. That Team Judge Busters will drive like non-asshats.

7. All of the Plantiff's losses are their own damn fault, and this racing this is a really
really bad idea.

WHEREFORE, the Plaintiff claims ONE THOUSAND FIVE HUNDRED AND ONE
DOLLARS ($1,501.00) in damages.

Respectfully Submitted,
Christopher Blizzard, Esq., DDS, MD, POS

    Had no idea you were a gear head until fairly recently… awesome.

    You still ride motorcycle (or did you ever… I saw a picture of an old bike of yours, or something)? I recently picked up a semi-old buell (’02) and have a replacement rear shock arriving tomorrow, just in time for the nice weather here in NYC.

    Cool. Apparently oe headlights just don’t cut it on a track at nights.
