Huey Newis and the Lose: October 2008
http://hueynewisandthelose.blogspot.com/2008_10_01_archive.html
Tuesday, October 28, 2008. Its not so much Mission Statement as Manifesto. Here is the letter written by the esteemed wordsmith Warren G. Taylor (Ok, his middle initial isn't G. but it should be.) that got us accepted into the race. yes, its both silly and true. To whom it may concern,. They are not very bright, and this is but one example of that fact. But I digress. As follows, the standards they bear, and their unique methods for upholding same:. Magnum in the guest house, Crockett living hobo-like on...

Huey Newis and the Lose: March 2009
http://hueynewisandthelose.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html
Friday, March 13, 2009. Manifesto, Part Duh. This writeup comes courtesy of our own Andrew. Thats why we pay him the big bucks kids. You know, the “pulling yourself up by your own bootstraps” part, not the "snorting a pile of coke and dying in a hail of gunfire" part. 8211; Ed.). And Iron Eagle 2, the ultimate sad derivative of the original that was itself ripped off from Top Gun. Crappy movies begat crappy movies until it turned into a Mobius strip of fucking lame. Is there a point to this diatribe?

Huey Newis and the Lose: January 2009
http://hueynewisandthelose.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html
Wednesday, January 21, 2009. Back to the Grind(er). Now is that time where most teams would relax, calm down, and reflect on their previous achievements. The Lose is not that team. Already we're buying and selling parts and planning work weekends, with the Reno race only 4 months out, we'd like to have our car prepped with a little more lead time than the last minute dash of last year. Expect more pictures and documenting of the. Irrefutable evidence on the go-faster parts we've prepared this time!

Huey Newis and the Lose: The November Wind
http://hueynewisandthelose.blogspot.com/2009/09/november-wind.html
Friday, September 11, 2009. In the course of human existence, there are generational touchstones that result in a uniform experience that transcends the barriers of race, of creed, of culture. For our parents it was the day the first man landed on the moon. For our parents’ parents it was V-E day, or V-J day, or any of the many other moments, frozen like iron in the consciousness of that Greatest Generation. And what was that rallying moment for our generation? It was all that, and nothing more.

Huey Newis and the Lose: July 2008
http://hueynewisandthelose.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html
Friday, July 18, 2008. Nobody light a match. Still, we have a car that keeps running, and without anybody's foot resting on the go pedal, which is an improvement. Last work weekend, the car made 1.5 laps around the block before falling into a mysterious coma, which I'm now comfortable blaming on fuel starvation. As we had planned from the beginning, I cleaned and rebuilt the carb last week and managed to have. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Huey Newis and the Lose. Well, how did it go? Nobody light a match.

Huey Newis and the Lose: Great Success!
http://hueynewisandthelose.blogspot.com/2008/12/great-success.html
Tuesday, December 30, 2008. Its taken me a couple of days to come back down to Earth after a weekend filled with so much energy and excitement. The Lose set modest goals in this our first ever Lemons race. Keep in mind this is the first wheel-to-wheel racing any of us have done. Going into the weekend, our primary goals were the following:. 1: Get everyone some seat time in the car. 2: Don't wreck/blow the car. Ps As people get their pics online, I'll post the links here. Labels: 24 hours of lemons.

Huey Newis and the Lose: June 2008
http://hueynewisandthelose.blogspot.com/2008_06_01_archive.html
Tuesday, June 17, 2008. Baby don't be so mean! At last, the first real. Day of work. It feels nice to actually get something on the car done. Ben and I were up early in the AM to see about getting that decade-old gasoline out of the tank. No Problem." I say, "I've seen people siphon tanks all the time! We just need some hose". After a quick trip to Lowes for some clear rubber tubing, its time to give it a pull. And give it a turn. The motor turns over. and over. and over. So I pull out th...Back at Krage...

Huey Newis and the Lose: Uh... Guys, don't we have a race soon?
http://hueynewisandthelose.blogspot.com/2009/09/uh-guys-dont-we-have-race-soon.html
Tuesday, September 8, 2009. Uh Guys, don't we have a race soon? Its been a while since our last post. I'd like to say its because we've been busy celebrating our triumphant victory, or working on our top secret project, or something other than the truth. Yes, we blew our head gasket early on in Reno, and we haven't really done much since. But Willows is fast approaching. Our mostly-employed team is ready to spend some quality time on the car. We have to beat I Wanna Roc. Huey Newis is getting back to work.

Huey Newis and the Lose: Ghettocharge!
http://hueynewisandthelose.blogspot.com/2009/02/ghettocharge.html
Thursday, February 19, 2009. So fans often ask me "Weston, if you only have 500 dollars to spend on your car, how can you possibly afford to make it go faster? The best part about LeMons is how complex that question really is. Truth be told, you can do nearly anything you want to the car so long as its not throwing money at it. LeMons encourages, nay, ADORES to see teams trying to implement banned or outlawed technology on their racecars. Mid 80's GT parts. Total cost: $0.00 RAD! Huey Newis and the Lose.
