As always, Jalopnik has done a fine job of covering the latest 24 Hours of LeMons race in serious depth. However, the only part we really care about is the finish, because when it was all said and done a Volvo 240 sedan took the checkered flag in what we're told was a truly dramatic fashion. The 240 in question wasn't your typical old brick, however, as it packed a 302 cubic inch Ford V-8 under the hood. It was neck-and-neck between it and an Acura Integra, but the competition ended its race on its roof with one corner left in the race. Congrats to the winning team and its mustard yellow monster.
