If a location is a problem I have a 100 person capacity conference room in my office building that is empty most of the time. We would have carte blanche, all I need to do is reserve it.
The positive is plenty of room and it’s close to my house and office 😆
The negative is that I live and work in Longmont so it would be farther away than most of you would like (Angie and Rich Vito wouldn’t mind I imagine 😆 )

Rotax #27dDennis,
Glad to hear everything is going well (albeit hectic eh? 🙄 )
I hope you can make it, i’ll bring beerMike
The more racers on the track the better the competition and better for the spectators. I too would rather race against 30 versus 5 or 6.
I agree with Jim. Age isn’t the issue but weight is. In the meantime though i like the thought of 20-30 of us roaring down the start finish line.

Rotax #27dJeff,
Don’t know where you live but if you’re in the Denver area the two tracks are IMI and Action Karting. check the links and give em a call. Both are fabulous. Service is good and friendly. What I will say is that we have a VERY active state and for the most part, we’re all friendly and helpful. Local club races and the Colorado Sprint Championship series with many good pilots here. I would say welcome and you’ll have a good time here. Check out the posts in the forum and I think you’ll find a flavour of “Rocky Mountain Karting”

Rotax #27dMark,
I haven’t heard Janny in ages!
Yea, the VIG is running that’s why i ask when you’ll be at IMI anytime soon or i’ll see you at the 1st CSC race (hopefully sooner since my balls are being busted 😛 )Chaz,
I’ll check out the composite. DID gold and Wipperman (Mark do you have a preference?) are both good and wear out at the same rate to me. I’ve got Bobby (@ IMI) finding out about gettting chain in 10′ sections I know Comet Karting sells it that way and figured bulk would be best for a season.

PS Mark, too bad you’re not old enough to remember “TheProfessor”. Alan Prost was smooth AND fast. 😀 But then, you were just out of diapers at the time 😀 😉
KGB???
Why would he want a Russian Police chassis 😆 😆
Loren, Whenever you want to go out would be fine with me. I’m getting tired of riding the spinning bike at the gym 8)
Actually, i have no idea. All I know is i’ve got to put in testing time, conditioning time and less pie time if I am to have a chance at podium finishes next year! 😀

Rich,
Thanks for reminding me for the same things.
This was my first season and I have to say for a first year event (CSC) you can’t help but be impressed. Thank you all (track owners, workers and volunteers)I want to say a big thanks to all the people who answered my questions when i was going to IMI to use the rentals. I was impressed with everyone’s willingness to answer questions about thier rides, maintenance, basic setup and on and on. IT WAS BECAUSE OF THIS that I bought a kart and raced. You are all a great bunch of people. Sam Walls answered many a question for me when I was “thinking of buying a kart” and I thanked him many a time. His response is what makes me think our sport and it’s people are wonderful. He said, “when you have people ask you questions I hope you will be as courteous to them as I have been to you since the more people who are involved only makes Colorado Karting better.”
Angie, I don’t think we can thank you enough for putting together the best newsletter and website dedicated to karting I’ve seen, period.
I am looking forward to next season and I hope I can answer people’s questions about karting when they (hesitantly) mosey up to me and my kart at a track to show thier interest. I hope too that I can set a good example of sportsmanship and cometitiveness to the younger kids who look up to us.
