Congrats to #9 Brad for a triple win( qualifying,heat, and main) on Sunday. A well deserved win, not any big mistakes to cost him any positions. I know because Ron & I were right behind him in both races.
I just looked at mylaps this morning. I had not looked at times yet on my mychron. My kart felt very smooth and toss-able out there. My lack of traction seemed to carry the day. MG tires were still good
Brad, I did not hear your victory interview. I was still smiling ;D and the adrenaline was still pumping thru my ears at scale lineup. Thanks for the props
Terry gets the Race Soldier award for even getting their two karts out on the track

That was fun. Some bumping and passing. Brad made a few minor deviations but they were when we had some distance to make up. Congrats Brad. I looked at mylaps and saw that Rich was 0.2 behind Brad, and I was 0.9 behind that. Nice close finish. It looks like 2013 is setting up for a close battle. Now I need to go change my number and panel on the side of my kart that was destroyed when Rich hit me.  |

Congrats to Brad for a solid days work !
Not much too report. My new chassis is all look and no go at this point, running nearly a second off the pace to the front 3.
Not sure where the problem is. I'll for sure be sporting long hubs for Dixon to try and loosen things up. The motor felt pretty flat, but that might just be a by-product of too much rear grip.

What a crazy fun day!! Congrats Brad for the win! Despite the frantic struggles to get everyone going (thanks Rich for the shout out...it was a little nutty at times) I have to say this was a blast! Thanks everyone for all their help, especially Paul for all the wrenching to get Keevan and myself rolling. I really do like the WF and by the end of the day I could see improvement in my laps. Clearly I have a long way to go but it'll be fun getting there!  |

Simon, any video?
You are welcome to my long hubs if you need them for Dixon. I could give them to Ron,or Brad to bring to the race.

No video yet. My laptop died, so until I get my eBay motherboard swapped into that I don't have access to my video software.
Keep in mind, you took off down the road so you don't actually feature in my video ;-) Slow down if you want screen time!
I'm picking up some long hubs, so should be ok. If I have problems I'll give you a call. Thanks for the offer !

Slow down if you want screen time! Well there is an alternative to that one. If you slow down so we can lap you, then you will get some awesome videos as we pass. Maybe mount a forward looking, and backward looking, camera. If you want to mount a camera looking to the side, just let us know what side to pass on. ;D |

Brace yourself Ron, just might get that 360 degree view @ Dixon, compliments of the Brit! If I stay farrrrrrr enough in front it won't happen. I don't think it will be long for Simon to dial in his new kart. He is good with that stuff. "Mr. Consistent" as I like to say. I already had a target on my back after last season. You should see the side of my kart after just one race.  I am juist glad to be alive.  |

Hello everyone, hope everyone is having a great time, sounds like fun, wish I had a kart, hope to see you guys soon. BILLY! Billy was a part of the start of the NFRA. You'll see his kart #17 on our Tour Shirts. He taught me most of the stuff I know when it comes to racing (the going fastish part, not the wrecking, pulling bonehead maneuvers part ;D) Did you get rid of all your karts? Last time I knew you had a F200, shifter, HPV3 and a friggen modified you ran at Roseville. Still have any of those? You REALLY need to come racing with us....someone needs to see if he can snatch the pebble from the masters hand.... |
