    I should have my shifter back, and my friend Kim LeBaron is going to have his cart there (he owns a cart shop). Peter has said he's going, as did Rich. Say about 10 am to start? I'll check the schedule re: track time next week when it comes out to confirm.

    Let me know who else is coming. Vincent, Ben, Fiasal?

    yes, I should be able to make it. I do have my company Christmas party that night, so I may have to bail a little early, but otherwise, count me in.

    Also, might your friend Kim have a rib jacket thingy to buy? I still need to get one and may just order from a catalog I have, but if they are local, would rather support them.

    Kim's number is 408-543-8686. give him a call. Otherwise, the track's store has rib protectors. You'll definitely need one at Sears. Not like Atwater, the transitions at Sears are a lot harder.

    Matt:

    Sears Point now has a track (yeah, I know it has a new name, but I've been using the old one for over 20 years, and I don't want to change). When you enter the track, the first turn after the entrance takes you up the hill. It'll be the 4th, start time to be announced, probably 10 - 11 am.

    I just spoke with Phillip (one of our karting buddies) and he also likes to join us. I'd suppose it's a go if it is not raining...what do we need to bring other than helmet shoes and gloves? Do I need to have a suits?

    Cheers,

    Art: For the guys that have not driven there, you should call to see if the into course is available.

    I just cleaned all of my karts! The KT100 Yamaha Invader kart is as clean as a whistle and I will take $1800 for it. I'll bring it to Infineon if anyone would like to buy it. This is an extremely nice kart with a tuned pipe. It turns about 65MPH and is geared well for Infineon.

    Talked to Kim, he said it was available, I'll re-check again, but plan on it. I'm planning on being there about 10, so that can start about 11 or so. Peter is planning on being there at 11. Ryan may be able to come, Vince, Faisal, Dan, anyone else?

    That works for me. Kim will have 125 non-shifters, but I don't know how many. I'll see if you can use one of his. Otherwise, try the shifter.

    If I can find my card, since it expires at the end of the year, I may treat. Don't know where it is, but I'll look for it. By the way, rain late PM on Saturday, earlier the better.

    Just got the schedule. Open from 1 to 5. I'll be there at 12:00 to get set up, so we can start on time. Peter no need to get up early. The good news is that we're running the National track. Shifters get up to 90 mph on the straighway!!!!
