FLAT ROCK, MI - The 24 Hours of LeMons concluded at 2PM, Sunday, September 30, 2007 after twenty-three hours and forty-five minutes. The finishing order was:
 Team members celebrate winnin ur nickelz
2. Car and Driver (Tony Swaaaaan) 2383 laps
3. The Latch-Key Kids 2350 laps
Forty teams entered the competition, with thirty-nine successfully taking the green flag to start the race.
Team TrackAddicts started from the pitlane in last place due to a last-minute repair session to fix a damaged fuel line and re-route the exhaust to comply with LeMons regulations.
After considerable effort on the part of the team, their 1986 Celica Supra had caught up to the first-place team, an RX-7 operated by Car and Driver. Tony Swan, the driver of the RX-7, was pressured into damaging the car, allowing TrackAddicts to take first place at approximately the nineteen-hour mark. Strong work from the final two drivers and the crew ensured that TrackAddicts crossed the line with fifty laps in hand.
The team was awarded $1500 in nickels and a silhouette of copulating rabbits, which was welded to the Supra's roof earlier in the event.

 Those poor saps at Car and Driver. Four or five times a year, they make the long trek from Ann Arbor all the way to the Hocking Hills, most recently for the Z06/Viper Coupe/Solstice/Miata tests. But we TrackAddicts can drive there in about an hour thanks to the new Lancaster bypass on 33!
This past Sunday's TA Hocking Run had seven cars and about sixteen people carving the corners, hiking through some of the Midwest's most impressive scenery, and lowering themselves down a scary-looking cliff face.
