      Hey George

      And it has gotten harder to make any road racing the last few years as have a 2 and 4 year old who turns 5 in May and sure dad will be looking to put him in a kid kart.

      We’ve also been going to some vintage races.  Really wild ride with vintage tires (don’t really turn), no side pods, no front or rear bumpers to speak of…

      I do miss BlackHawk.  I retired the bodywork kart I had.  In tag usa rules isn’t the leopard allowed to be ported….we run stock leopard.

      Dad on the other hand loves running his Yamaha CIK and his old kart (almost qualifies for vintage).  Doesn’t use the KPV anymore.

      Great to see CES and others with their schedules out, which makes it easier to plan the year and schedule vacations.

      As mentioned, we all need to support road racing courses or they won’t be around.  The one I miss the most is Road America when hosted by Badger with close to 1000 entrants.  Doubt we will ever go back and that is a shame for those who never got a chance to race on it.

      My dad and I have raced with CES and last few years with KART/MARRS.  BlackHawk is one of my favorites.

      Don’t judge Afton and Garnett too quickly or from the videos.  The first time we saw the tracks (drove around in our truck) we thought OMG how do they race here.  After racing on them, had a different perspective…still need to respect the track, speeds we carry, fellow racers, and most importantly have fun.

      Brian, I never thought about the “missing a tree” aspect until I saw Kelly do just that a year or so ago.

      Thanks

      Mike

      Thanks to all for putting on a great event.  Was a little cool in the morning and plenty windy.  Some great racing all weekend.

      Here is some video from Stock Leopard on Saturday – good shot of the field as I started from the back.

      And from the Over 40 Stock Leopard on Sunday.
