    Eddy,

    Once again, thank you for your classy move, it was very nice.
    I appreciate your attitude and support always.
    Thank you for the talk!

    Yes, night time felt a lot faster! Completely agree.

    A quick suggestion:
    Number and plate color code should be required. Thoughts? :anyone
    Light
    Medium
    Heavy

    See you at race #5. :~

    Thanks

    Thanks to all at The Track from me as well. That was a lot of fun! Agree with Leo, number panels by class are a good idea, there’s a lot of inter-class interference. Knowing who’s who might help. Would really like to see better policing of contact as well. I haven’t had a single 206 race where I haven’t been spun and/or punted. I was knocked out of the lead in the main by a mid-corner punt from a medium racer this time around. I love the class but we’ve got a few drivers treating it like bumper cars.

    Good times and looking forward to the next one.

    NO worries Leo.

    Agree on David’s point of rough driving. Not talking about incidental contact from hard racing.

    Punting, brake checking and/or turning into someone when along side to pass needs to stop. We don’t need tore up equipment, or worse, someone getting hurt. We can race hard and still be respectful. That’s all I’m saying on this topic.

    Respectfully,

    Night racing was a blast. I love that the weekend was condensed into one day. It gives the guys like me that do this every weekend a chance to take a day off. Thanks to Jim, Carolyn, and everyone at The Track for setting it up.

    To All that attended…

    I want to say “Thank You” for attending an awesome event!!! It always worries me with large fields racing in a new environment, (similar to our first Pepsi Center race with over 100 entries)

    I can’t believe how amazing our Mini Max racers are!!! What a show, as well as all the rest of us!

    From all of us at The Track, thank you again for your support and confidence in us to put on a show worthy of attending.

    I want to say a special thanks to Haselden Construction for sponsoring the lights and making the event possible.

    I hope everyone races to the best they can at the Rotax Grand Nationals, and anywhere else your kart and trailer take you.

    Awesome, awesome, awesome!!!

    See you in August at “The Track”

    Jim

    Coming from a newbie, the race was an absolute blast.

    I agree about the numbers along with all other comments.

    Thanks everyone for the help received and for a great experience.
