IMI’s Kart track will be closed for the Scooter nationals this Friday only. Sportique Scooters of Denver is renting the track for that day. There will be a practice day on Thursday for Scooters but the track will be open to karts and bikes. No I am not kidding! We will be open after they are done about 5:30pm-6:00pm I hope.
Hey Blink,
Scooters, what the heck are those? Do they have rotax or biland scooters? Are they the 2 wheelers that roar around the paddock on race days that are not suppose to?
Rich, you should know what the scooters are they are from your vintage, vespas + all of the other well known race bikes.
Everyone break out the Vespa’s

Hey Rich,
I heard somewhere that the FR125 you run was originally designed as a scooter motor. Aprilla made it and Rotax took it over.
Blink,
I saw two articles on the Scooter Championships at IMI in the Boulder Camera and The Times CAll.
Interesting, but looks dangerous going 50-100 mph in those things.
Good to see you got the nationals held here, now bring some kart national races to IMI.
When I was at the Rotax Nationals last yr at Denton, that track looked mmore dangerous than IMI with little space between track lanes and close proximity to fences.
Chaz-back in the early centuries when I was racing the old lawn mower engines were more stable than the Vespas. See you at Action in a couple of weeks.
:argue :cheers:I won’t get a kart national because I can make more on a CSC race and I don’t have to hob nob with the snobs to schmooz a race. Stacey can tell you what you don’t make on a pmt. We are going to hold a AMA Supermoto National race next year which should be huge. I can’t believe the press this scooter race is getting, there were two radio stations that talked to the promoter live yesterday, two newspapers and FOX 31 is coming out today.
I was out there on Thursday for practice.
Those scooters are “interesting” :idn:
They seem to make more noise than anything. To each his own, I guess…
