Sorry to hear of your Dad’s passing. Karting and Motorsports in general lost a great friend and supporter as well. Best wishes to you and your family going forward.

Eddy and Sandy WyattNice piece from Denver CBS. Looking forward to the next one with some better weather for travel. Hope you all had a great time.

:coCongrats to Scott (CJKC), Zac (PPKRC) and all who made this happen. :clap: Here’s a great opportunity to race all the tracks in our state. Should be fun. Good luck guys.

:coGreetings All
:direct The place to be next Sunday is Unser Racing for the “Kart Racing for Heroes” event. The Mansfield’s, their crew and the Unser Racing staff put on a real quality event showing much support and respect to our Heroes: Army, Navy, Air Force, State Law Enforcement, Fireman, Wounded Warriors and AMT first responders. Hope I didn’t leave anyone out.
Come on out and join us.Respectfully,
Eddy
:coGood Luck Scott and Greg and all from Colorado participating. I know you’ll have a great time. I’m going to try to make the Arizona events even if only as a spectator. COTA is COOL MAN! :flag
Don’t know Rodney. I believe we’ve been under Briggs rules from the Briggs racing website and IKF like CJKC for the 206 classes with the exception of what was posted on The Tracks website and what I duplicated here on this thread, i.e. weights, jet and Duro tires/wheel sizes (local options)etc.
As far as welding mufflers on the pipe or anything not covered if it is not, I’ve always been told if it’s not in the rules it doesn’t mean it’s legal. If you want a one source document that covers everything you’ll probably need to make one. :clap:
OK, so not my call, however, as a 206 competitor I have NO problem with welding mufflers to the pipe. Let me simply suggest, anything related to what’s legal or matters not covered in the Briggs rules or class structure and local options listed on “The Tracks” website should probably be vetted through the Tech. Director. Last year as most of you know it was Mike Edwards. Or one could direct questions directly to Jim at The Track.
I’m done with this topic……………………..
Good Luck,
Happy Holidays All,
Eddy
:coGOOD info Leo. I blew up a Max Torque Draggin Skin with my test engine pre-season and found the Inferno clutches, Fury or Flame worked well all race season with just doing preventive maintenance. The Stinger clutch worked really good as well; all easy to tune and in the $100 to $140.00 price range depending on shipping and where you buy. :rev
Here’s what we know from last year:
1. age 12 and up
2. light 300lbs, medium 350lbs, heavy 380lbs.
3. full size chassis
4. Duro tires; wheels 7.10/11 rears and 4.50/10 fronts.
5. 95 spec jet.If I’m not mistaken clutches were open last season, however, most ran centrifugal most likely due to cost savings, ease of tuning and overall performance and reliability. Additionally most ran 4t or Redline full synthetic oil like the CJKC.
Everything else should be in the Briggs link posted. i.e. box stock LO206 with spec pipe.
Most of what I posted here was taken right off “The Track” website under the race tab.
With all the kart shops and 206 racers in Colorado there shouldn’t be any reason this is a mystery. C’mon MAN>>>>>> 😆
Hope that helps.
Eddy
:coThanks Greg, what I was thinking. Hopefully Jim and all the sponsors agree… Looking forward to 2015.
:flagHey Guys
My input, stay with centrifugal clutches, 95 jet and strict compliance of Briggs rules. Don’t know what others experienced, however, we ran our fastest times up and down hill with the 95 jet vice 93 at The Track and at varied OAT’s. You can always change the pin setting to get a leaner or richer mix without changing the jet. I’ve been told by those in the know, jet size in its self is negligible at altitude unless you’re running above the rev limited PVL on the 206, which we don’t do. I’m content with the weights/classes as they were at The Track in 2014, however would support the Briggs Senior weight of 360lb for the medium class in 2015. Suggest leaving the weight for the heavy class as is for those who are unable to get down to the 350 or 360lb minimum as per Briggs Senior.
Seems we had a good thing going at The Track last season, pretty amazing the numbers in only our first year with the 206 program. Suggest, let’s keep it going and keep it simple……
Happy Holidays,
Eddy
:coWe’re not doing “Sin City”; HOWEVER, wish all the Colorado Drivers and all who are going the best luck, have fun and stay safe………You All have our total SUPPORT!! :clap:
Very Cool Craig. We hope to make it in 2015. It’s on our planning calendar. :look
