I would like to know who is planning on attending this race with a 250, ICE or FKE III?

You know you can count on Ryen, this is our debut in Superkarts - IC/E and FKEIII. Hope everything works, and keeps working for the day.

Why don't we make this race our make-up race for the Infineon race in USSC. If you are waiting for something better to come along it isn't going to happen. Laguna Seca is last year. Next year is still open. This year is now and there is a race this weekend at about as centrally located a site as we are going to be able to get. I hope that the west coast 250 drivers will pull together for the good of the series. There isn't a better date the rest of the year. Ryen Miller is in. Paul Band, Mark Morrison, and others are going to be there. What do you say guys lets make this the first race in the 2005 USSC west series?

Larry, good idea however I will not be able to make it this weekend due to other committments.

I am committed to supporting the series I am sure we can figure out an additional race -- all the west coast guys must get together and agree on a future date.

Anthony.

Too bad, your season can't be extended then you can do the make up at Fontana and then do the Sears afterwards and get them all in!

We need to set the date for a third race. As the racing season passes on I'am sure its going to be harder to get race dates. Planning becomes harder for the racer,days off work, logistics, etc. Fontana was to soon to get ready for most plus rained out, Sears rained out. I'am sure we won't get a chance at Laguna. So whats left . There is 14 west coast drivers signed up to run USSK. Lets get together on this and decide. I have seen very little talk on this forum or any other.

My 1 1/2 cents

Mark Morrison

Marc,

I am listening and ready to talk. I am going to call a few of the drivers that I know and get them to participate in this forum!

Marc, why don't you do the same and you too Larry that way we can get more involvement / commitment.

Thanks.

Anthony.

As soon as the Infineon race was cancelled, I contact Mark and Brad and offered the rest of the NCK calendar of events. I have received no commitment.

There is an end of June date at Fernley, with a Friday Practice/Qualifying.

I am willing to work on this.

That sounds good to me Roger. I realize for us NCK members it is easier to make the races in northern california, so it would be great to hear from some of the "out of northern california" guys (Anthony, many thanks).

I got this off Rob Forkers website.

I haven't been able, so far, and probably won't, get a rundown of chassis and motors until closer to the race date. But, looking at the entrants, and from what I know, Yamaha, Honda, FPE and BRC will all be in the fray.

It's going to be a great weekend for Superkarts!
