I believe that the 1 hour enduro race was moved to the month of October, in hopes of more karts, no conflict with thanksgiving. but thats not how the 2012 pro autosports schedule reads, so clarification is needed Wink i am sure Benn will chime in.

Speaking of that...

Benn, are we planning to run the Enduro on the West track in October? The Pro Autosports 2012 schedule says the Enduro weekend is during the traditional November holiday week...

We are running the One Hour Enduro in October on the West track. Most of the local Sprint guys don't like the Main track and we lose a lot of them to the Supernats that is the week before. We're hoping for thirty plus Shifters to be mixing up with pit stops and driver changes and everything.

Our kart hits 103-105 on the West vs. 115-118 on the Main so it should still be fast enough for you.

The ProAutoSports schedule must be a hold-over from last year. I'm sure they'll correct it.

Either way, take some pictures and lets see what you got! Shocked

Oh, my poor, poor rear tires! The carousel turn is NOT going to be good for them... will probably be fun and smoke filed though... I may RE-consider my engine package, as I'm not sure I can keep what I had in mind under control on the West track.

Have a few updates on the build-off.

Alan's girls let him out to the garage so he could get some work done, he even took some pictures!

Still waiting for Nathen to find his camera.

Have to take a break from mine for a couple of days - we race this weekend! Very Happy

A progress update.

Alan has still not found his camera.

But I got some stuff done!

I do make a point of not working on the kart when the temp is over 112 degrees. Twisted Evil

Scroll down to the part about the brakes:

Cooler temps mean I can get some work done.

Plus, Alan found his camera.

Progress is being made - the dead line approaches!
