    Go on down and have some fun. You can race in Tag Heavy and IAME sprint. Your kart age shouldn’t harm you, mine is a 2007 and it still works great.

    Does no one check their info before voicing anything on webs. In the WKA Tech it shows that 206 was replaced by the KA100 senior. The Ignite class is just a once a year option class like they do at RIGP an INDY. It’s like the open sprint class on the big track, it’s not a series point class.

    Robert,  Your timing was perfect again with the weather. Today it rained and hailed, I don’t think we would have been on the track. It was a great time driving the rookies around hearing their ohs and ahs at the blind corners. None had to be towed in but one time but even then there nothing but smiles all day. I look forward to your next time.

    Robert, We have gotten a new record for rain fall in Oct. and the month isn’t over yet. I this morning had to pump out 6″ of water off my winter pool cover and that’s only been since Friday. I’ve seen worse in this area and still raced at Grattan. See you Sunday with my boots on for all those unlucky enough to break.

    Robert,  That’s for all you do getting this together. Even though I’m only there to help out it’s a blast to see newbies on a road course without the pressures of all the traffic in practice on race day.  Drivers with many years racing trying two or more different noses, or pipes, or engines which they wouldn’t have time to do on race weekends. My brother finally took part in Sunday, and he’s sore but very happy he was at the test day.       Your timing was right on weather wise, it rained three times during the day and around 830 pm we had a tornado warning and flooding, I bet the park along the river is higher now.            Again Robert thanks for putting on a great Sunday, signed Tow Guy with “COLOR”

    Robert,   My brother Larry would like to be included in on the one day practice, he needs some seat time with his Tag kart.

    Where are you looking to race, Ravenna, Lansing  or any one of our four big tracks. We just was at Ravenna with a 206 against mod clones, my kid won. Next weekend I go to Mid Ohio to run my leopard.We ran at MIS a couple weeks ago. So what’s your direction?

    formosakid, where are you located, I’m in Grand Rapids. Are you running sprint tracks or the road racing. If you need some help I’m in my 43rd year karting may I can help or point you in the right direction.

    Gene,

    The race schedules for Mid Ohio and NCM have a small mistake, both on the Saturday lineups, Stock Leopard Sprint 1 is not listed but Animal Sprint Lite 1 is listed twice.

    Just noticed  it’s fixed already, sorry.
