    Screw the indoors, this is “Winter Paradise”, whats it going to take to get karters to the high country on ice?
    My 92 trailer looks a little weathered but it still works good. I like it when I can show up with a drift on top.

    Thank You Curt. Any day being with karters is a great day.
    My personal Flea Market is open to any karter year round.
    Loading back up was simple with all the help I got from great people we have in our sport.

    Terry, I have one home maid one I need to keep, unless you want to buy all of my old motors? I’ll try and bring one that needs rebuilt, a 1972 model.

    Curt has timed this perfect for me, I have a few days off and my trailer isn’t needed any more this season. Clean out the shop, do a little show and tell, then unload it in the storage shed. Humm… If the redemption center down the road from Curts would give me $2.50 a pound I could just unhook my trailer there.

    I wounder if they would have or sell the extra coverage that didn’t get used in their production for TV.
    Is there a copy of Ken Walkers work?
    How about the race radio’s web deal is that available in hard copy?
    There was two pro karting mouths working the Nationals I am surprised they were not used.
    I had hoped the coverage would show me the reasoning behind the Black Flag I was issued with as the officials haven’t been able to tell me why yet.
    It was great to see on TV and even better to have experienced that race first hand. That was my best week in Karting out of 27 years of racing, even though the end results were my worst.

    What a blast!! I had been wondering where the carrot is for doing well in our region. I found it in my pants while giving Jim a hug for letting me pass him in the last lap 😛 .
    There is just too many people to Thank for the greatest 20 minutes I experianced in karting this weekend.

    Instead of links to all the things karters must do to participate in this national event that karters pay way over $300,000.00 to put on. How about a link that shows the carrots one may get in return.
    Does 2nd place get a tool box or something?
    The hard work it took to qualify in the second position at The Track series qualifiers has left me with no advantage or carrot over someone that now can join in just by signing up.
    I have really enjoyed running in the Rmax series this year and feel like it’s a great program. I just think it could be even better and we could get more new karters to join in and old karters to stay in if there was some sort of insentive or even just recondition other than sending one person out of the hundreds that particpate on a trip.
    This is the biggest karting event Denver has ever had. I am very lucky to be particpating in it. Yet the view from the secound ring from the top of the ladder at our home town track, so far, has left me a little disapointed with very few reasons to do it all over again, other than the reason why I am all ready doing it, I Love karts.
    RMax couldn’t even get my licence #, required stickers, and rule book sent to me before the series season was over with and this is their, what, sixth year promoting this?
    Sorry for posting the negitive veiw, but if a wheel don’t sqeek it probably wont get greese.

    Are we still welcome if we don’t sign up for the welcomeing Banquet?
    When a person wins this event, what do they receive? Is the trip to the Middle East transferable?
    Do they get a credit to reseal their motor if it is found legal?

    “Now add the time to run 1 flight. 1 hour 10 min on average.
    We ended at 7:00pm Sunday. Lets make it 8:10 – 8:30 if we split the class. What do do?”

    Thanks Jim and the crew for providing a great day of fun.
    Really I would still be game if you ran all 120 of us in one race.
    I did post my opinion of a change in mixing of classes on the fruit salad post that would seperate the Rotax/Tag deal.
    As a previous mod Briggs racer I did like it when I could till my way past a slower rotax racer when we used to race the two classes togather. That mix could also allow a tag or rotax racer to run in booth classes too. Could running the three Jr. II’s in front of the Jr. I’s work?

    For years when I was trying to get more people racing potatoes we were always told bring on five and you have a class.
    There is now 2 classes of potatoes running togather with 7 total in there races. Run the mod potato with apples = 15 karts. The jrII potatoes in front of jr I potatoes = 14 karts. Then the oranges can peel them selves with 13 karts and maybe we could get Roman to wear himself out racing apples, oranges and 4 banger potatoes.
    Where’s the beef?
