Hey Rich gearing is top secret I took all the #s off so you can count all the teeth when I am doing the skk duties. Ya might make sure I am full of fuel at the same time. Jeff, are you assuming you will even have a sprocket on your kart when you return from your skk duties? They have turnip farms up there in Red Bluff? |

His sprocket will be there, but the chain may be hidden somewhere else.

You guys are tough! Dependent on qualifying order, I see the potential for an invert. Yep, the race director DOES have that option, and KC has no jurisdiction in THAT court! I've got your back, Jeff.

Invert is fine. Rich loves those. He especially enjoys starting on the outside row for every single race ....... just ask him, he'll go on for hours about it ! ;-)

Gee, thanks for the head's up Simon, we can manipulate to accommodate! Jeff just called, he shared a collective decision from Rddg guys, not to qualify. Interesting choice, but with a potential 6 to 8 kart inversion, it just might help them?

Beer and nachos? Ha Ha! how about water and stale Pita chips? Or would you prefer wine coolers and pretzel sticks?  |

What...the...HELL! How is it we scheduled a race in Redding on the same weekend as "HomerFest 2014"?? Homer drivers, homer Race Director, when will the madness stop?? What's next? Is there going to be a jug of fuel out in the infield so when the #14 runs out of gas with 3 to go he can get a little "top off"  Or, after our last night race there, do you "north staters" still have your hearts set on making "kart pushing" a new Olympic sport? Enough with these Redneck holidays!! At this point, it is what it is I suppose since the date is already on our shirts. The only thing I can suggest is if ANYBODY sees any shenanigans going on, call the 1-800-BOGUS-RD hotline. The Race Director is already on double secret probation and it is the least we can do to uphold the integrity of the sport. As everyone knows, the NFRA is the paragon of integrity. Well, except for our president, SIMON WHITWORTH, getting caught up in the bribery scandal in the Kangaroo Court last year. But, besides that...oh wait... |

Brad- you'll have to talk to the KC about this, and the bad part, they have each proved that PAYOLA is king. The 800 phone number might be a long-shot too. If you'd like to complain, the lovely Helen Wait runs that department, so go to Hellanwait, tell me how it works for you?

Looks like an early Saturday getaway for me. Just not worth grinding through the Friday PM Bay Area traffic. Hope to be there before noon so I can work on a rib-friendy set-up.

If I even get out of Sacramento the earliest would be around 3pm after our Little League playoff game.
