    Ahhh Lemmings, you have to love them….
    Adolf Hitler said Facism was a good thing and plenty of people followed.

    Now we’re at a crossroads where a viable solution is being offered and yet we still whine. Why, because some people know of a Comer website that helps us push the envelope? Great if you know if sucks if you don’t.
    Your kid wins and thinks it’s himself (and so do the parents) and sucks when he or she gets their butt handed to them in a higher competition (national level). And this teaches future talent what exactly, delusions of grandeur???? :idn:

    Seal it, claim it, monitor it and be done with it.

    Or are we going to hear whining all season long because “x” kid is running away from competition? I would have loved to have been in Germany in the late 80’s. Michael Schumacher’s family couldn’t afford new equipment, nor for him to make a banzai move and break things. He learned how to DRIVE. There’s a lesson in there for the lemmings, if they want to open their eyes… 😯

    Ran Motul in my rotax and never had an issue; VP during the season and no issues.

    Run Maxxima bean oil in my Motori and no issues, Roman’s engine when we took off the cylinder looked new using bean oil.

    We’ve got plenty of time to run out our supplies of non spec oils and plenty of time to load up on the spec stuff. It makes spec easier so let’s go (forward)

    Hey the doctor called and said while Rick’s under sedation we can do anything we want with him. He’ll be out for a day. Sooooooooo….

    Deliverance anyone??? 😉
    Yea Yea it’s a warped British humour!

    While he’s out (since he hates to admit it) if you see him trying to lift a kart before July of next year you have my personal okey dokey to kick him in the pants, or anything heavy for that matter. That’s why he didn’t heal properly last time.

    Welcome to karting Craig.
    In the winter time what’s nice to do is let people know when you’re going out so we can make it “the more the merrier!”
    I’m done for 2006 but will be back out starting mid January, can’t wait!

    Start working on your neck muscles, shoulders and if your forarms are toast, you’re holding on too tight!

    Dave Letterman Top 10 reasons I post:
    1) beats sitting on hold (waiting for an immediate response on a work issue) and doing nothing
    2) Most the time I’ve got something to say, most the time
    3) I sleep less than most (check out what time I’m posting)
    4) I try to keep my posts humourous if the subject is getting way too serious
    5) I miss being at the track!
    6) 800 posts over 4 years is a lot, however, it works out to 200 a year or 16 a month or less than one a day
    7) A lot of my posts are bumps :k
    8. Want to outpost VITO 8)

    Okay so there’s not 10 reasons, so shoot me…

    Rick, keep your hands to yourself. You might need counselling…

    My feelings:
    1) Championship at a temp track is truly an equalizer of racers and the cream of the crop rises.
    2) Until GGP moves to any other weekend besides Memorial Day I’m with my family. That’s non-negotiable
    3) Never been to George’s track. Would like to go there but once again we screw the western slope racer if we go to CRE instead of Steamboat and I really liked going to Steamboat since it was a nice getaway and I’ll have to get a hotel regaurdless of CRE or Steamboat and a few extra $$$ for gas to Steamboat shouldn’t be a deciding factor.

    Next year throw CRS into the fray once the addition’s done. This year let’s stick to Steamboat. The wives and girlfriends will thank us!

    Kirk,

    That’s what we’re here for. Let the vets help you learn from OUR mistakes and point you in the right direction. Sam Walls helped me A LOT when I got in 4 years ago and all he asked was to pay it forward when newbies are at the track.

    To everyone: don’t be afraid to ask questions! The less mistakes you make the more time you have to practice, race and race fast.

    One more thing. The rear number plate color will be enforced this year. Classes that run together need to know if the guy in front of them is in their class.

    :woohoo See, the CSC does listen to the racer and adjust. Thanks all, you’re doing a great job. Keep moving forward.
