I had heard that Unser may be one of the interested parties! I hope this is true.
New buildings would be nice and an indoor track co-located would be awesome!!! I personally like the way the Track was run, classes, race dates, rules etc. It’s been a great 10 years and I’m thankful for Jim to have the vision to build the track in the first place!!! Lets hope it continues to operate at the high level it was at. But if not, maybe we can come up with a series (206) at IMI, SBR, Action, and GJMS. perhaps a temp track somewhere too? I’m not ready to sell my kart just yet.
If I may cast my vote, I would prefer to stay with the Duro tire. I’m sure that a different tire may lower the lap times by a couple seconds but I don’t believe that it would make the racing any more competitive.
One of the main reasons I decided to get back into racing was Jim’s announcement of the tires and the fact that they would last all season!! Changing those MGs then MOJOs in Rotax was my least favorite part of racing. I think I even came up with a few, new swear words trying to change those tires by myself. So the fact that we can race on one set the whole season and still remain competitive, PERFECT!! In fact, after the first race this season, I replaced the Duros and I have yet to achieve a lap time that I did on the old set??? Maybe we can get two seasons out of them? even better!!
Honestly, along with the excitement, safety, and competitiveness of our sport, cost is one of the main attractions to get more people involved in our sport. The Lo206 and Duro tires are a great way to keep the costs and simplicity under control.
But whatever the tire decision is, I will support it.
Thank you,
AndreI sure wish I didn’t have to work that weekend. I would sure love to be there!
I took me kids to Elitch’s the other day and couldn’t stop looking at the Pepsi Center parking lot from the rides, There will be several places that people will be able to see what is going on and hopefully create some interest.
