I have an rv on the lot as well. I often thought about looking into having a bunch of us get together as a group and have someone do just that. If there was enough of us, I'm sure it would reduce the cost significantly. I have been taking it to the rodeo grounds campsite , they charge $10 for dump f...

Maybe somebody to paint the new Medic Tower white too, it would make it blend in more? Don

I want to add my two cents in this conversation. When we started in 2018, Carter had only experienced quad and dirt bike riding as a past time. He seemed to take very quickly to running laps safely and eventually over time, knocking his lap times down. Even though we could have probably entered him ...

After reading your comments Jack, I can understand the reluctance by some having issues with the equipment purchases. But you earlier stated that the cost isn't usually a deciding factor whether to get into racing but if they are complaining about buying what is required, then I do see it as a cost ...

As we keep growing I can see we may need to have all our race weekends being a double header and not all classes running both of the days just to be able to fit everyone in. It's not a big difference than the odd weekend when we would only run one race day other than the fact that there will be more...

Thanks for all the interest, if anything comes out of this conversation, we may have a better way of electronically tracking the races on our phones. As far as making it a part of the medic structure, I think it may create more of a sail up there on the berm. Besides the medic shack is only going to...

I agree John that everyone has a phone to access to apps that update who is beating who. But sitting in the stands, it was surprising how many were actually looking at the board during the race rather than their phones. Sometimes the glare of the sun makes it hard to see the phone screen, sometimes ...

Well that is good about the available conduit in those two area's.

And yes, there will have to be some thought given to the wind loads on the structure. By looking at a old photo, i'd say the board is just over 2-1/2' wide by about 11-12' tall?

That way I might even see MY number up in lights for once!

Thanks for your response Jack! Always good to hear from others. There is no doubt that we would have to place tire barriers around it as I too have seen karts end up in this area. The good thing about this hazard, is it would be so far from the track compared to other possible contact hazards that a...
