Much longer than a decade, I knew some guys that did a lemons race in Illinois about 20 years ago. Wikipedia says they started up in 2006 but I could have sworn I read about those guys before then.
I didn’t want to really include the early years since it didn’t get big in the car scene until like 2010ish. Pre-2006 I wanna say it was called something else, but yea it’s been around in some form for a good long time.
I’ve only known it as 24 hours of lemons but I don’t know if they carried that name on all the races. I know the one my friends did back in the day was named the “Rod Blagojevich Never Say Die 500”. I know for a fact is a Lemons race though because Jay Lamm was there and gave them an award for something.
