ParticipantCraig – PPKRC’s web site says saturday 8/3 is a test and tune day prior to their club race on Sunday 8/4.
Can you please add some details to Saturday? Can one test and tune a kart that is intended to race Sunday? Can the same kart be used to participate Saturday somehow in your event?
Thanks! Leo.
