    You’ll need to keep cowering a little. And please mention Rotax or the Grandnationals instead of your smut on this thread.

    Angie, can we just go ahead and ban Jansen? Or maybe 30 days in the hole?

    😀

    What’s the difference between a gear meant to be used at IMI and one intended for Bandimere?

    Gear wise, you may want to strap a skid plate to your arse incase you go through your seat coming off of Imi’s new jump. (And we used to think Bandi flat spoted a chassis!)

    Can you hook me up with on eof your brothers flat plates? Huh Huh please.

    Well the main jet & needle are about the only thing that is the same. The idle jet is different and it is a pumper carb. It has a daiphram that injects a pulse of fuel into the venturi. Your a stock car racer. It’s kinda like an accelerator pump.

    I’ve been studying and experimenting. It’s no more difficult, just different.

    Joe,

    The Vampire site has the ability to convert to English.

    They have bloodlines in Moto GP and build awesome precision power plants and components.

    Sorry Angie,

    Jansen started it! Then Kirk… Well you did go a little over the top there. Maybe all the excitement about getting a full ride and helping at the Rotax Grands was just a little more than you could handle. But it is an all age show.

    Probably about time you reeled us in Angie. I give! :white

    I definitely need to get my driving helmet on straight.

    I found this picture of your Mom, Kirk. And it looks like the helmet thing is in the blood and may be hard to shake. But please, please keep with the open faced helmet, that full face job may offer more protection but is so hard to get back off again!!!

    Yep…. After 5 years of trying to slow those hummingbird hands down, it’s time to fly in a ringer. A ringer who has been competitive in his hard kart and has all his time to devote to his program. A job just gets in the way you know.

    Looks like Kirk is running. I need to know if you’re going to run Saturday too. Or are going out Sunday. I probably have 2.5 gals of Ms 98 if you want it with the tires. Call me

    Look at what you post here, it’s a rough crowd.

    And Mikey, you are a true philanthropist and a blessing to mankind!

    We tried to get free Oral from Imi, but there was tubing interfernce that would not allow firm mounting!

    Or something like that.

    I have the Mg’s we ran at the last Csc Race with our power valve stuck and unable to get over 10,000 Rpm the whole race. So, they are in pretty good shape and you can have them.

    All of our efforts are focused on a RMax championship title. So we have stuff you can have too. Keep it going Kirk.

    Zip, Krik is his alias when wearing the blue polyester dickies worn in his previous avatar. Easy to confuse the 2.

    To put my situation in perspective, I am not even buying beer.

    OH MY GOD……GUY”S

    Sounds like we need an intervention. Mike, you start icing them down, Curt, well.. just save him a few, I’ve got about 35 gallons of home brew and a 1/2 barrel of Left Hands seasonal IPA, Warrior (uhmm beeer) oh ya, Where was I? Anyway, the Schmidterator 9000 XXL (as my friends call it) is not super portable, but under the circumstances, WE NEED TO SAVE A FRIEND. And it can be loaded (I said loaded) and brought to the door step of a desperate racer.

    What do you say boys?

    Your comments are pretty close.

    Although the previous breed of Ica motors rev well past the typical Tag motor. Have you ever seen any of the onboard Ica stuff? It is wicked. You can find some on Youtube. Try “shifter kart” or “ica kart”

    And if you screw up, there is no starter button to get her going again.
