2018 Steve Orton 367 pounds - no lead. 8 lbs req'd to meet class minimum. In 2019, I'll be Dave Cameron's doppelgänger!!! Ernie has some great points. The new class could work if there was a restriction that NO lead could be added to the kart for drivers in this class. That would keep it an even pla...

Re: Race Sim - seats?

I purchased a Playseat Revolution a number of years ago, and I've been quite happy with it.

Great job there Brent!
I'd love to work with you to create one that we can put up on our Try A Kart page. We'll chat next time at the track!

Thanks for the great effort!

Re: Kart Numbers

Joey @ Overdrive sells the yellow backing and numbers, so that's the quickest and easiest. He's usually at the track most Thursday nights.

If you want customized ones, check online, there are lots of options. godecalzone, eBay, or any of the other specialty shops like JakeDesigns, KartDavid.....

Re: F1 movie

I'm going with a couple of buddies from work. They just said it was a special one night showing about a Ferrari. Good to know a few more details... :)
It's always great when they release one of these.

Re: Enduro 2017 Wrapup

My only thought was that if you're going to have weight classes, then all drivers on a team should make that weight, or really what's the point.

Re: Lost & Found

Found a Light blue hoodie hanging on the pre-grid fence Monday night. It has a fluorescent yellow zipper.
I know who that belongs to....

Also found a black hat with a white logo at Saturday's Try A Kart. It's in the bin.

Re: 2017 Enduro Regs are Posted

But doesn't that defeat having any Heavy or Light classes in the first place?
