ParticipantRoger,
Sounds interesting. Has your testing on the infield track provided any ideas about gearing?

Joe,
I can assure you the testing that was done by the PPKRC did not represent the speeds that Pat will carry with his skills and equipment. Our testing would have had you at a GJ base line and as rubber got laid down, you guys could have removed 2-3 teeth.
The revised track sounds like it has been shortened, narrowed, and kinked to slow everybody down, which is a good call. Lap times will be in the 30-40 second range for Pat.
Have fun.September 7, 2010 at 3:09 am #64255gunter desanti
ParticipantWhat is it .5 to.6 mile track?
30-40 second lap for shifter.
Tag could be anywhere between 40-60 seconds?.
Gear it somewhere between Bandemere& IMI you should be right on the mark.
Seems like SKUSA did some REEEEEAAL EXTEEEEEENSIVE Testing.Any track is only as safe as the NUT holding the steering wheel allows it to be.
Cmon, up until now the only split in Colorado Karting has been caused by a clash in personalities.(aka pissing contest)
NOW Politics REALLY is dividing it.
Keep it up boys

ParticipantUsing Google Earth, I come up with something very close to .6 mile.

Participant“Any track is only as safe as the NUT behind the wheel allows it to be”, I love it Gunter, you read my mind!!
Hey all, just go and have fun :green . The PPKRC folks are great. Anyone who went to the first club race in the auto cross lot will tell you it was way cool and safe.
I would definately be there if I wasn’t out off town in support of our daughter giving birth to a new baby girl. We are trying to make it home for the final club race at The Track.
Cheers
