Team Italian Job changed our theme for The 24 Hours of LeMons this year . . . Last year we had "Racing Jack" on the back deck of our 1987 BMW 325is that had been made to look like a MINI, replete with grill and spoiler.
This year we went all duck - The Ducks of Hazzard - for the race. Seemed to do better (climbing from 40th to 25th over two days) and definitely had much more fun.
I had the team's two black flags. One penalty resulted in us having to give up Racing Jack:
