    If you are not racing in or not having your track raced on does your voice count? I appreciated the words of widsom I can see your concerns but since its my backside at CSC that needs coverage can we discuus that! One rule book or two or rules posted on line or available at the local track are great. The number one point should be insurance coverage for the drivers and others in attendance. What tracks have insurance and what kind do they have? If I am paying a fee what is covered and what is not. Racing is serious and dangerous and fun lets look at those issues. Not who has a national race that only a few people go to in another state. This is act locally and the national events will take care of themselves . 😯

    If you look at all the decisions that are made, most if not all can be traced back to money. We have numbers in the CSC series the reason track owners and series organizations want us. In answer to Rich .

    !. We need rules

    2. We need fair and equal enforcement of said rules
    ie rotax rules a level playing ground for all racers
    and all classes.

    3. All classes have must have rules , My tag is covered. Are
    Rod’s and Greg’s animals? Are the comer babies? Does
    SKUSA have these classes at a national level? If they do
    not then why should these or other people pay the extra
    money to race?

    The first time that SKUSA went to Steamboat the four cycles were not included. A point I made to Gradie at that time and the regional SKUSA director who was at IMI. A showing of Fifty karts happen. Not much to yell about . The next year 135 karts for the CSC race and even bigger this year. The point is I raced my animal under SKUSA races run at IMI. And the only benefit I saw were a higher fees and actually a longer day because of extra time needed by SKUSA for motor break-ins and special timing for the SKUSA classes at the expense of time and money for everyone else. I believe track owners will also have to pay higher fees a result that I will also pay more. The new fees are a surpise in them selves from CSC. Who and what are we paying for now? It took a strange vote to get an ambulance at the tracks a five dollar fee. The drivers pay for this. Are the track owners concerned? Lets go back to the bouncing Ball and check who is dribbling the ball.

    Sorry about your loss. I put on an additional insurance rider for tools and trailer, I need to up date the photos thanks for the kick in the assets. I also hooked up an alarm to trailer, At least the noise might scare them away, I believe that some insurance is available for the kart , Jansorski has an option of some type. Will check the garage sales and the home depot lots.

    😥

    I believe that jeff should have three in a row except for a piece of track coming up then of course the frozen field rule comes up next sounds like racing luck to me. The good ones know it exists and live with it the others say only certain ones get it and that it has nothing to do with team preparation.
