Anthony,
Pat and I are really sad to hear about your dad. We had a lot of good times racing with you and bench racing with your dad, memories that I’m sure you treasure as well. Best wishes with carrying on the business.
What Eddy said.
I’d also suggest you get a spare set of studs, so if threads do get stripped, you can simply replace the studs. In fact, replacing the studs every season is good preventive medicine to deal with metal fatigue. (Over-cautious probably, but studs are cheap.)
Thanks for the heads-up, Eddy. As we all know, the weather in Colorado in late October can be wonderful–let’s hope the later date pans out!
Looking forward to it! Will the layout be the “short” infield track like in May, or the “long” infield layout as in July?
Maybe check with a brake place–I wonder if the “glue” would be the same as that used for bonding brake pads? You might check with Zach at Friction Systems, 6125 W 59th Ave, Arvada, CO 80003, (720) 898-4454. They’ve been very helpful in the past.

However, series points don’t seem to be updated yet.
Maybe of last year’s race, Tony–I didn’t see any cameras there this weekend. No more cash purses, either. Ahh, for the “good old days” of large races that everyone attended!
Don’t get me wrong, this race was very well organized and ran like clockwork. Kudos to the organizing crew, and to the dedicated corner workers, T&S staff, and everyone else who stood around in the heat so we could have a great racing weekend. Best news was a hint from Jim that he might be able to get the track ground down next year–even from a crew chief’s perspective, it was incredibly bumpy. The drivers are probably all too sore/numb to provide their comments yet!
Well said, Tony! A big thanks to Roger, Dave, Dave, Tony and the rest of the PPKRC group (and to Curt Kistler for race director duties) for putting on another great race weekend. :trophy
Thanks, Andy! Sounds like it’s time to pull off the CR-125 and dig out the ol’ Rotax for a comeback!
Shelley,
Last I heard (http://www.thecoloradokarter.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=5808) the PanAm Rotax Challenge was going to be either August 19-21 or Aug 26-28. So is August 12-14 final and locked in stone?
For anyone who doesn’t know Rodney and his magic chassis straightening jig–he does great work. :clap:
