ParticipantHey guys.
Unfortunently we have some bad news from the weekend. While sitting outside of our shop our race trailer was broken into. Stolen was a toolbox full of tools, a portable generator, and our floor jack. If you could, please keep an eye out for any of this stuff. Also in the toolbox was an assortment of AIM sensors for M3 Dracks, and M3 Gold.Please guys do not think your trailer is safe for one second. They could not break or cut through any of the locks on the trailer, so they simply broke the entire lock assembly off with a crowbar, bending and putting holes in the sidedoor. Unfortunently since none of the stuff is really karting related, I do not expect any of us will see it.

ParticipantSorry to hear guys, let us know if you need to borrow any of our crap, we have so much.

InactiveSame here guys. If I have anything you need, you’re more than welcome to it.
Sorry to hear that happened to you!
Roman locked the keys in our trailer and the rental place snapped my big lock off like it was a wet noodle. Makes you think about an alarm or something like that.

InactiveGreg and Doug,
It bites when the dirtbags of society do things like this. It would be great to hear one of the businesses had an external video system and caught them on tape.
If you need a little humor to cheer you up, see if the Suburban Auto Group can change the Trunk Monkey to a Trailer Monkey.

ParticipantI would not leave anything of value in a trailer outside and expect it to be there in the morning. You should back it into your shop every night if you want to sleep at night. I had my jet skis taken out of my container right down the street from your shop and found on the side of the road on the street just next to your shop just a few years ago. Thiefs will do anything to get money for their meth, coke and crack.

InactiveGreg, sorry to hear about that!
We just got broken into for the second time in 4 months. After the lessoned learned the first time the trailer was empty this time. Don’t even waste your money on locks, leave it open when stored! If anyone catches one of these individuals in the act, please detain and call the karting community. I would think that we could think of some sort of fitting justice that wouldn’t cost the tax payers a cent!
I have no use for parasites!
Maybe we could donate them to the military for frontline work in Iraq?

ParticipantTell you what, you catch the scumbag and I’ve got the cleaver. You just hold them down and I’ll do the rest. Any law enforcement official will understand. We can take a photo of the occasion and post it on all our trailers. That’s what they can a real deterrant.
Sorry to hear that Greg.

ParticipantSorry to hear about this guys. We have people who go around looking for stolen tools and machinery taken from our job sites at flea markets and auctions all the time. We will look for your stuff as well.
Bastards took my trailer from the back of my son’s running pick up a few years ago. Lakewood Police said no way they would look for it as 10-15 a week get ripped off in that lovely city.
You gotta believe in carma. What goes around…..
