June 2012 - Ann Arbor MI -- Today Car and Driver reported
that against the advice of mental-health professionals, Dr. Stephen
Murphy and Dr. Robert Morrison, along with Morrison’s two sons, Frank
and Alex, will compete in the 24 Hours of LeMons -- a wheel-to-wheel car
race for heaps that cost $500 or less. Morrison's team -- the
unpromisingly named "The Whole Tooth!" -- hits your local track on
06/16/2012 to 06/17/2012, where therapists and junkyard operators are
already standing by.
One Morrison relative, on condition of anonymity, described both the
Morrison and Muphy families as "...saddened but unsurprised" by the
news." Unfortunately, we've come to expect such lapses in judgment," the
source told C/D.
Friends, coworkes, and relatives interested in staging an
intervention and/or watching the Murphy and Morrison men do something
incredibly embarrassing can find more information at Car and Driver's LeMons minisite or LeMons' race-info page.
Team Info: The Whole Tooth
Driving start to finish without Novocain, we are essentially the last
legs of a fading root canal. Painful and surprisingly fun through the
mouth of the finish line. We will be extracting everything we can from
our vehicle - filling the competition with awe. As we pass our
competitors we aim to whiten the gap and decay the lead of the
front-runners. Two actual dentists, and 3 wanna-be’s "filling" the role
of team Whole Tooth, we hope to extract victory. Please brace yourself
for an epic smile.
Please stay tuned for updates as Team Whole Tooth purchases their car, readies the beast, and competes for glory!
