Eze Brake Bleeder
VACUME OPERATED SYRINGE BLEEDS MASTER CYLINDER IN SECONDS WITHOUT SPECIAL TOOLS OR CLIPS.REQUIRES ONLY ONE PERSON TO COMPLETE OPERATION!! INSTRUCTIONS INCLUDED.
Part #: 356515
AJ and Victory Circle Graphix are the bext locally. He will work with you to get something you will definately like. I layed out my own number plates in Adobe Illustrator using a fontface that I liked better and he made some color suggestions based on his inks. I was very pleased with the outcome. Not sure if he has updated his templates for other styles of body work but he is worth talking with locally. Made in Colorado!!!!!!
Yeah Google Maps is a great product. FYI, not all of their imagery is actually from satellite. In fact the imagery covering the Bandimere area is old, and was actually flown imagery(taken from a plane) plus it has that pesky watermark. Notice the north end of the track. That imagery I think is 2000 or 2001 maybe 2002.
Costs lots of money to fly an area for imagery so it isn’t flown that often unless there is someone willing to pay for like for a mapping project and satellite imagery isn’t cheap either (someone has to pay for the satellite). So most of those map services use what the can get a hold of cheaply. Google now owns Keyhole (now Google Earth) where they purchased imagery from what ever source they could find like Digital Globe, Space Imagery, US Air Photo etc…. and is the imagery they share in Google Maps.
As for IMI I have gave Angie a nice image last year she used on a web page (not sure where that page is now, it was for CSC I think) plus I posted a couple small versions one of the general area and one of the kart track only on this forum under a topic called “Karters interested in Driving ovals?” If you want a bigger image let me know, just send an email or pm me.
Haven’t looked for some good recent imagery CRE yet and have tried looking for GJMS track but have yet to find something and I have the same old stuff that Google Maps has for Bandi. Will keep looking, I work for USGS so sometimes I stumble onto things.

Thank ISC Motorsports and the France family. Maybe its their payback for having for been voted down on a new facility a few years ago. Who know’s? I’m sure with the IRL saying they wouldn’t be returning next year didn’t help.
That’s three tracks that are closing this year, PPIR, Second Creek and RMNS. 😥 Guess motorsports is a tough proposition in this state.
We can always relive some of the states racing history at Colorado Racing Memories http://www.coloradoracingmemories.com/Here is snip-it image of the IMI area from the Spring of 2002 0.3-meter pixel resolution (approximately 1-foot), natural color orthoimage used in topgraphic mapping.

Bought a Bell Kart Pro from Saferacer had it in two days maybe your bad experience, Superslow, changed the way they do business. I don’t know, that was over a year ago. One place I would avoid, if the are even still doing business, is e-racing outlet (connected to e-karting news) very bad expereince even though they rectified things.
SafeRacer.com is another good source http://www.saferacer.com/index.html
