Trekkor and I are going for rematch at www.gokartracer.com tommorrow at 12:00. Anyone who is interested is welcome in joining us. It costs about $72 for just about an hour of time for those showing up for the first time. That includes a license fee, head sock if you dont have a full face helmet. Fun stuff!
We will meet in the lobby at 11:30. |

(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif) Lets see first practice session I headed out in front of Nathan. And by the first corner he was on the inside of my kart bumping me out of the way and I never saw him again. Then Trekkor went by and I never caught him again.
Nathan was flying for somone who hasnt had much karting expereince. He was sticking with a real fast guy who had much more expreince and placed 2nd out of a field of 6 karts. Trekkor wasnt doing too bad either! Nathan posted a mid 58 second run, Trekkor was in mid 61 seconds and I was low 62 second laps. I just plain sucked partially due to out weighing most everyone by 50 to 100lbs and not being in good enough shape to stay focused on the longer races. I was looking at my lap times compared to Trekkor and I have a chance of staying with him this next race Nathan on the other hand is completely out of my league until we put a 100 lb bag of concrete on his kart. I weigh 100 lbs more than him and when you only have 9 hp it makes a differnce. Kind of reminds me of the Indy car people complaining about whats her name and her 100 lb weight advantage. |
