Butt Sweat & Beers Racing

Butt Sweat & Beers Racing A racing team formed with the singular goal and the fortitude to drive a car that is barely held together by load bearing rust to its mechanical limits!

BS & B is a race team put together for the 24 Hours of LeMons race circuit coming to Joliet Autobahn track, just outside of Chicago, next summer. The race is loosely based on the 24 Hours of LeMans, but for crap-can cars, and race teams, on a shoe string budget. The rules state that the cost of a basic car is limited to $500. However, all safety gear is exempt from the $500, and we do have to have

a full roll cage, competition racing seat, etc. Please come out and show your support for our team. Learn more about the race here: http://www.24hoursoflemons.com/

Hi all, been a bit remiss in posting here but got a lot of updates to share! We have purchased and built a new car for this year and will be racing it in 2 weeks at Joliet! It's a BMW E36 which should make us a fair bit faster than we were in the ol' Rabbit. Very close to having her race ready, I'll post some pics later today! Cheers, BSB Racing!!

If you’ve ever dreamed of being a race car driver, you’re a good shade tree mechanic, and a bit of a daredevil, the 24 Hours of LeMons is for you. Once described as “the Weird Al version” of auto racing, participants compete in hours-long races driving cars costing $500 or less. More than a dozen…

Race is next weekend!! Can't believe it's snuck up on us so quick! Well, we swapped the 4 speed for a 5 speed, and that of course came with it's own set of problems. Linkage was the main issue, we initially only had 1st and 3rd gears. With some new parts and much thrashing today I think we finally have all 5 gears and even reverse!!! Loading the trailer tomorrow for next weekend, won't forget the spare head this time!! ;)
