Hello karters.
I have request for the RACING FOR HEROES event. I need some trophies for the military personnel. I need first, second and third place items, maybe one big one for the overall winner in the military division. I have other items for the other classes such as an entry fee, fuel, supplies for your class etc. I took the front plate from my trophies; Yes I did win some and gave them away. I know your partner doesn’t want to dust these items. Contact me please. 303- 242-2929

:usa: I forgot one more request. We have a special announcer. We have a sound system. We need a wireless mic to make interviews possible. Contact me or Greg Welch to help[ in this area. Thanks
:usa: Unser Racing has a deal for today only in the Denver Post and on line. One session for $ 15.00 get out of the cold and burn a few laps get ready for the RACING FOR HEROES event great prizes are on the line for everyone.

:usa: Mike, I wanted to be sure of the cost. I met with the track manager today and the one day fee charge for registration has been waived. The charge for one session will be About $ 27.00 with the ten percent discount given by the Unsers to Colorado racers. You can reduce this amount by buying a 3 or 5 race package that can be shared with others.
A special area for Colorado racers to get a lunch. I secured 100 luncheon burritos today that will be served with chips and soda. An official photographer will be in attendance so you could wear your racing suit and get a great photo for seeking sponsorships. A one time event fee for your class up for grabs. The track times based on a weighed scale(Rotax,SKUSA,Race the Rockies,PPIR,)
The seminars on how to tune you and your kart to go faster, military races, track side announcer, bench racing, the Daytona 500, It will be a great day I look forward to seeing you.

:usa: Your melon hasn’t been able to fit in your helmet since you won the Tag Worlds. You also want tea with your melon I suppose. The burritos will be made that day and will be a choice of beef and chicken. Will you be able to beat Ronnies time since the karts will be the same ? I remember when you told me that my slower time was some motor and more me the driver. It will great see you there Freezeman. :~

Here is a great article about Craig and his efforts to support our military.
This should be a good time to be had by all.
So come out and have some off season fun!

:usa: An update: We have a RACING FOR HEROES racing coach for the military personnel. Rich Schmidt has stepped up to run the series at UnserRacing indoor track. He will coach both teams and set the rules to determine the winning team. We have the traveling trophy in hand and are looking forward to the outing. If someone with either Army or Air Force background would like to help him, please let me know. It could become a challenge between the coaches.
SKUSA will also have a representative to explain their series and the 2011 rule changes.
The kid kart racers are urged to come in their uniforms for pictures with the Military personnel.
It is getting better and better but we still need help. Racing and non-racing volunteers are needed. Please come out and join us.

303 242 2929Craig,
The CJKC will be there in full force, we will be there early to help with anything you need.
:usa: An update. KId karts If you have raced before in the 6 to 8 year old bracket bring a time slip if possible. Jay will be there to help with certification of your abilities. Kids please wear your racing suits.
We will have a PA system set up for the races manned by the voice of Tony Laporte a super announcer and great volunteer. Thanks Greg and Ian for the equipment.
A photographer on the inside of the track, Louis “Depam” DePaemelaere, will photo the Military races and be available for all others as well. Thanks Depam
The race director for the military races will be Rick Schmidt and his crew Lucy and Maxie.
The use of the 360 neck brace is a required item for the RACING FOR HEROES event. The braces are at the track and are free for your use. You can bring and use your own helmet. What better way to try a piece of equipment under actual conditions. I found it far superior to the foam collars. I will be wearing one this year when I race.
Thanks Ken Bort for volunteering for the set up committee.
Butler Cox has the handicap system set up so everyone has a fair chance for some great prizes. Thanks Butler
A special thanks to Ryan Rudolph for the trophy donation. They are hard enough to win and even harder to donate thanks.
An RSVP by Friday would be greatly appreciated so we have enough food.
Who is your pick in the Daytona 500?
