The Down Under Automotive Racing Team is comprised of mostly transplanted Kiwis from New Zealand now living in the Las Vegas area
posing here with Photos of our # 29 Subaru Wagon at The 24 Hours of LeMons
at Altamont Motorsports Park on October 20, 2007. Last year we ran a Subaru Wagon. This year we are running a 1995 Dodge Stealth.
The most valuable thing about our cars is the artwork. This is the hood painting of a New Zealand tribal chieftain dressed in ceremonial garb
with a good luck charm worn from his neck. Near the end of the first day our engine blew, but we were able to install
the spare engine we brought along for just such an emergency. Unfortunately the "New" engine lasted no longer than the
original. We were still able to finish 71st however out of 83 finishers completing 267 laps with a total time of 9:37:29.734
with the best time of 55.084 in lap 181 at a top average speed of 65.355 mph.
