    Running the usual warm up sessions at 7 and lap race at 7:30. Hope some of you guys can make it out. We had 16 or 17 guys last time all in one race and it was a lot of fun, very few caution laps and a lot of clean racing.

    I'll take the heat for that one, I appologize. Apparently, I broke the brake pedal retaining pin on that impact too.

    ...I will be carpooling with three guys from Palm Beach, so we should have a full house on Wednesday.

    Nice!! Maybe we'll have enough for 2 races again...

    They have a group of kids coming in around 7:15 also to run a couple 8 min sessions so we should get in line for our warmup session asap when we get there! And they we are on for the lap race after that!!

    A great group of people and a good time. Also a humbling experience but I wasn't last however my position in the ranking would be referenced from last instead of first. Thanks for being so welcoming.

    Kevin - Glad you had a good time, sorry about Martha! As you know, speed comes with seat time so you'll get your times down. I'll let you know when I get a driver training set up too


    Dirk, as long as you had fun that's all that matters. Hope you have/had a safe trip back home.

    Great turnout last night, 19 people so we ran 2 separate races! The track, as usual, was very accomodating to us.

    pretty sure it was bill that hit me once pretty good as i was braking early and taking a tighter line then most on the old track layout in reverse. it felt like it lifted 3 wheels of the ground.... but all in all a good time!

    The most painful bit was coming a bit to close to the outside of the track once and the front of the kart caught the wall, slapping the rear into it, I think I bruised my ribs that day.

    Glad to hear that you guys are having fun over there!
