Robert had been keeping the rusty ol’ gal as a parts car but her days were numbered. Not much was left of the sad old girl except for one thing… potential. Most of the engine was gone, most of the useable interior was also gone. It was this moment I understood the phrase ‘love at first site’. Her copper colored decay glistened in the morning sunlight. She was sitting in the dirt her body was the most wonderful shade of sunbaked blue I had ever seen. At that instant he proclaimed… “I have just the one for you!” We traveled to the back of the lot, where our beauty awaited. We knew we had found someone friendly to our cause. I told him our plans for one lucky Metro and immediately through the lenses of his square framed glasses his eyes lit up and a big smile cross his face. After a brief schooling on the history of the Metro brand and it being passed around like a kid in foster care I began to fully understand why these little cars have so much personality. He was a self-proclaimed hyper-miler who had spent years building and maintaining his ‘fleet’ of 3-cylinder runabouts. He told me about his love affair with Metros. In a matter of days Robert, the aficionado, and I were face to face looking at his Metro collection. Most of them questioned my sanity, but just as it so happens I knew a guy who knew a guy, who knew a guy, who is a ‘Metro Aficionado’ if such a thing exists. I began pitching the idea of building a ‘crazy Geo’ to a few friends and acquaintances… you know, typical dinner conversation. But mostly, I love the looks people give when you say you have a Geo Metro race car. My personal favorite ‘lemon’ is a Geo Metro. We want something epic… something truly worthy of competing with these legends of lemons, and by golly, we are going to try. We’ve got a lot of inspiration from teams like the MetroGnome, MetSHO, Eyesore, and last but certainly not least, Speedycop and the Gang. So, we set out to build something crazy… How crazy? Class-X crazy. A few of us decided we need something a little crazier…more work.

Mike the Mercedes mechanic knows everything about these cars and how to fix it in short order. Everything is German engineered to make sense. The Mercedes we drive is great, really great…too great for our own good! Working on it is simple. Racing with The Squirting Coronas is a blast (as all things with lemons are) and we learned a ton about what makes a great team, and how to have fun. There are Item Recipes allowing for combining/manipulating involved items.We’ve had our taste of Lemons racing, and it tastes good. These all have identical item pools and can generate all but a small group of items. It should be noted that there are a select few events in which an item can be used for a special purpose despite there being no item button shown in the event. Items can also be used in events or in item/skill pop-ups by clicking the button shown with its icon in the event or pop-up you can hover your mouse over these buttons to see the item's name. To use an item standardly, click on its icon in your inventory on the right side of the screen. Items appear in the inventory and can be identified due to having the Object category.
