    Gayle and family,

    My condolences to you and your family for this tragic loss. I never met Rich but saw him several times at the track, and have been following his story for the last 10 months. I can only imagine what you have gone through and I wanted to let you know that my heart and prayers are with you. The support of the local and national karting community is second to none, and please know that we stand behind you and will be there for anything you need.

    How ’bout a mid-80s Merc diesel? I’ve owned a few, and they’re bulletproof, durable, and cheap. Plus, it’s helpful to have a 500 lb battering ram under the hood when the need arises!

    I can drive and tinker. Has your entry been accepted? I know they get way more entries than they have open slots. PM me and I’ll give you my contact info.

    If anyone is planning a team let me know. I am definitely interested.

    Hey Jim, can we run snowmobiles out there this week?

    Maybe I can put tank treads on the karts…… :loony:

    Sorry, a Schumacher fan here. I won’t race on anything with less than 4 wheels (it’s a self-preservation thing…). But an impressive career nonetheless!

    Wonder if Jim would let us race in the snow on our wets? Has anyone tried it?

    Oh, c’mon, you don’t have snow tires for your kart? 8)

    Rich,

    Like I said, I used to do that on my Jeep when I pulled the plug wires apart when doing a plug/points/rotor/cap replacement (ahh, those were the days), but thought that on the kart it was a no-no due to the vibration and high revs. Hmmm, maybe someone will have a better idea.

    If you order a new coil, does it come with the plug wire installed?

    Thanks Greg. I’m heading out to TTAC on Sunday (if the snow melts) and I’ll ask about the rental.

    I wish I could get this on my PS3 Gran Turismo 5 Prologue. It’s about the only way I will be able to drive an F430 on that track…

    Thanks Jim. We’re just going to do your Mile High Challenge club race series this year. Once I get my DD2 I will be interested in the RMax-specific racing.

    Had a great New Year and am looking forward to 2009. We wish you more prosperity for the 2009 season!

    OK, ok, I’ll stop being lazy and drain the karts today. I was not aware that antifreeze attacks asphalt. I run straight distilled water anyhow.

    Thanks for the info!
