LeMons race had a S/C Beretta!

Post by Rettax3 »

The weather has been a bit sucky lately, so I've been wasting time online, instead of doing something I actually want to get done. :roll:

I ran across a couple of references to these "LeMons" races -cute word-play, for those of you who know what the "LeMans" races are. Here was a Beretta to surprise me -Not sure if this was the original through-the-hood M90 SuperCharged 3100 Beretta (I hope not -that car was clean back then), or just another incarnation of that hermaphroditic creation, but apparently this car didn't do too badly -it was a rare answer of 'no, it didn't blow up' that probably helped it finish in the top half of the race... :wink:

This one was a 3400. And no, it wasn't Scott's 3400sc Z26. I don't know what actually happened to that car, but this one isn't it. There's a little build thread on it on a lemons forum. I found it a while ago searching ICM tests. The first go-around it was just a 3400, then he added the m90.


91 "SS" - WOT 3400/5spd - 13.29@101.6 - World's fastest N/A FWD Beretta
96 "T56" LS/6spd/8.8 RWD swap - 13.45@104.7 lol
