Mike:
My posts about rules were not meant to be pro SKUSA or pro Stars or pro XYZ. It was meant to be PRO WRITTEN RULE BOOK. I have since heard that this is in the process of being done. I was willing to pay my share to an organization to use their in place rule book. As far as getting personal attention from one these organizations, that is probably only someones speculation. I will register Kyle with SKUSA anyway so I would kill 2 birds with 1 $75 stone. I am all for a spec fuel. The people at BigT are only a phone call away. My conversations with them last year lead me to believe they would be glad to supply fuel and oil, with the added business we could make it a requirement for them to do the testing also. You could still purchase your fuel elsewhere but it would have to pass their test. Spec tires would save some of us some money also. If I had to choose one, I would choose the spec fuel.
The national sanctioning body is only as good as the regional rep in your area. The last SKUSA rep didn’t do SKUSA any good.
The track owners should set the rules and the schedule with maybe one option to vote on. Otherwise the rules meeting could go on for days.
The stars schedule and rules was posted on there website today.
BillThe only thing good about sanctioned racing is they DO NOT put kids in ADULT classes ………………….HINT HINT
I don’t understand the difficulty or the hesitancy about rules. People don’t have to be sanctioned at local club races they just have to decide on whose rules to abide by. If the promoors of a regional series decide to affliate with a national org. then fine the racers can then decide whether or not they want to join up. The decision to play by a standard set of rules is not this hard.
To Bill and Others:
I agree with what you are saying about a rule book. Running TAG class is pretty clear cut but I can’t speak for the other classes. If a clearly defined rule book is what is needed then that is good for all.
Having heard that Jim Keesling is going to be a regional director for SKUSA is a step in the positive. Jim’s cojones are big enough to get the job done and isn’t a people pleaser in my books but a person who would be tough and fair (Jim, it’s up to you to prove us right. I know this about you already! 8) )
Again, let’s move forward and make Colorado Karting better than it was the year before. THAT, is how we continue to grow. (and getting done at a reasonable hour)
