I’m with Sean.  Me and Kevin plan to attend the Pitt race, but a stand alone track day there would be too far to drive just for that.  Put it on race weekend?   We would do that for sure.  Shut up and take my money!  :-)

[Bruce Peck]

Robert:  Bummer but I won’t be making it up there this weekend.  Equipment issues.  Details are in your email.  Everybody have fun and be safe!

[Bruce Peck]

I’m still planning on being there, but BOTH of my available cylinders for my 150 engine are still out at the plater.  I thought they would be back long before now.  I can put it together at the last minute, but the pieces still have to show up.   I’m going to try and track them down tomorrow.  Here’s hoping . . .

[Bruce Peck]

Robert:  I just sent you an email . . .

[Bruce Peck]

Robert:   My check has left the grid.  We’ll have to see how she finishes . . .

[Bruce Peck]

I’d also vote for later although with my luck it will be sunny and 70 on April 1 and snowing on the 15th.   I’d be in for two days if it works out.  My little two man team has multiple things we would like to test.

[Bruce Peck]

Wow Robert.  You are READING MY MIND.  I was at Daytona and am still pumped up so was just getting to ready to ask if this had been thought about yet.  I’m switching my 150 test machine over from the dual alky burners (Brian Wilhelm called it a four headed monster) to a large single gas carb to make things more manageable so I’ll be ready to test even if it’s cold.   Bring it!

I’ve seen John at a number of Enduro races the last couple of years.  He was at MIS in Sept.

[Bruce Peck]

Just so it’s official I’m out for an October outing.  Next Spring however would be pretty sure and likely also the other fun days you’re cooking up.

[Bruce Peck]

I haven’t seen the class rules yet so it may be spelled out there, but does the engine have to be run under rules/restrictions required in TaG classes?   For example, can the header be modified or a different header be used to make it work well on a laydown chassis.  Do you have to run the x-30 pipe?  Things like that.    I was one of the small number of people that put together a kart for the TaG-E movement (small as it was) back in 2007-2008 and some mods were allowed to the header etc.  Back then we could run any approved TaG engine so you were seeing karts with Leopard, Sonic (what I had), Rotax, etc.

“So, the question remains…. What would you pay to turn laps at a premier facility like this?”

Hmmmmmmmmmmm . . . . .

Hopefully someone in those shifter races will get some on board video posted.  With a class that size it’s gotta look good.

[Bruce Peck]

[quote quote=66633]Not sure why vid make it look like my head is bouncing so much because it doesn’t feel like that. [/quote]   I guess you just have your kart really rockin-n-rollin . . . .  ;-)

[Bruce Peck]

Are parts of that track as bumpy as Jeremy’s head bouncing around makes it look?  Especially the transition into the infield?

[Bruce Peck]

What a difference a week makes . . .  :-)

[Bruce Peck]

Robert I’m just going to say right now – THANKS.  I know this has to be a bitch to get lined up each time when it goes well and this kind of mother nature crap really makes it crazy especially when there has to be a reschedule.   So I want to nominate you for karting bad ass dude of the year – hell, probably the decade.  If I get the opportunity some day I will buy you a nice dinner or at least pay your bar tab.  Well wait, maybe I should have an understanding of how much you can drink first :-)

[Bruce Peck]

I know many people can’t swing it, but I’d be up for a weekday if it could work out.

[Bruce Peck]

Mmmmmmmmmmmm . . . tenderloin.

[Bruce Peck]

Check’s in the mail . . .

Now let’s get to working on some warm weather for that weekend.  David Cole isn’t far away.  Maybe we can get him to come out and do a sunshine dance for us.  ;-)

[Bruce Peck]

I’ve been working on mine.  It was 70 in Indy this past Saturday.  Keep hoping . . .

[Bruce Peck]

Robert, I’m in for for one kart.  Potential for a 2nd kart, but definitely one.

[Bruce Peck]

I know it’s way early, but are there any thoughts about another spring test day?  I’ve got a kart I’m trying to sort out and could really, really use a track/text day like this again.  If there’s any thought on doing it, put me down for a definite spot right now.

[Bruce Peck]

Quincy.   See your private messages.

[Bruce Peck]

But still tell-tale signs that it is a Slingshot.

[Bruce Peck]

Definitely a Slingshot.  Just an earlier version than what I have.
