Hey Angie,
Have another cup, a mothers little helper, short nap and then GET THE PRO ICC POINTS UP!👿
Thanks,
I’m sure I will hear from you later.
CurtThanks Angie! And thanks to all the GJ Staff for all their hard work and great event.
Have a nice nap. :zzz:
Got you Stacey. And those “Mini Cooks” would be awsome umbrella girls. Guaranteed $$$$$ in the bank in my opinion.
See you this weekend!
Sure is quiet on the old Karter. Thought I would update all on the SSGP Golf Classic.
I have set up a total of (6) foursomes, for Haymaker on 8-26-05. First group goes off at 1:00, second at 1:10, third at 1:20…
The cost is set at $105.00 per player which includes cash prizes, kart, range balls, and the golf club will run the entire event. They will set the rules, post the scores, define the winners…
So far we have (4) foursomes that have either posted interest here, or contacted me directly. We have room for two more groups, first-come-first-serve. We can add more groups if necessary.
We will have over $200.00 to award back to the winners of the prize categories. IE: Best umbrella girl, most beer consumed, best one-handed putt while holding onto a beer and a cigar in your mouth…
I am sure I can persuade Jeff and Apple from Kart Sport Mag to drive the beer wagon for this event. He was 80% sure they were coming when I spoke with him at Blackrock.
Get me your team names, and players now so I can start getting things finalized with the course. I know it’s more money and time, however, if you have ever played Haymaker in late summer you know this is just another must do while the opportunity presents itself.
Bye for now,
CurtRick & Mike,
Just find a couple more TAG hacks and there you go, another team is registered. Glad to see you guys want to play.To everyone else, this is open to all family and friends. The more people we can book, the cheaper it’s going to be.
My bad Ian. I am still using the old calendar.
The SSGP Golf will be held on Friday, August 26th, starting around 1PM.All the fast 125 Masters at Black Rock were moto motors. As a matter of fact, they were really fast. Just ask Reed, Rein and Keesling.
It’s being ripped up to make way for a 4.3 mile road course, largest in the U.S. and third largest in the world. The karting facility is being relocated 1 mile north and will include, hot showers, men’s and womens locker rooms, covered pit’s, covered grand stands, resturant, powered pit spots….
Want me to go on?Alan Wilson has been retained as the arichtect and general manager of the facility. He will be moving there shortly. We were involved with Miller Motorsports hosting a karting event the week before the Shootout and got to know some of the players. Alll I can say is hang onto your hat, this is going to be HHHHUUUUUGGGGGGEEEEEEE!
Freeze,
The Black Rock Summer Shootout was held last weekend. There were about 7-8 Colorado Karters who cometed. I will let the other teams post their respective finishes, and I will say we had some pretty good results.Our team was represented by Jim Keesling in the 125 Masters class and he finished 10th with a $200.00 pay day. Matt Kistler competed in the PRO ICC class and also finished 10th with a $500.00 pay day.
The racing was very competitive in all classes with the best talent in the country, and some of our neighbors from Canada were present and fast also.
The track officials, title sponsors, and local folks were all very friendly. The track itself was, in my opinion, one of the best we have ever raced on. Vers fast, technical, good condition, clean, well run, good sound system, great scales, perfect timing system…. I can’t say enough about our experience.
The weather we experienced was two days ahead of what your weather was here. Saturday was half rain tires and half dry’s. A tuners nightmare!
Sunday was cool, but dry.I would do this event again in an instant! Events like this is what’s it’s going to take to get karting back to being fun. Organized, lot’s of track time, great awards, great people, and a well run facility.
You can also find some reporting at http://www.ekartingnews.com for other results and perspective on the event.
Hope I answered your question.
Curt
