His excuse was that their system was “down” (this happened another time I was there too) but I told him how long we waited and when he checked with the guy he found out we were still at the bottom of the damn list for some reason. > > It was only then that he agreed to a refund.

This is worth a lot to me since I like to see if I improved or not. I asked for a refund for that run but they just pointed to a sign that says “refunds not guaranteed due to equipment failure” or something… > > Had a couple of good experiences there too where things went smoothly, but I just don’t like how the establishment was still signing people up to run when their system was “down” and the people buying races probably weren’t gonna see a track for like 3-4 hours (and in no organized order). > > Granted, that was only one day, but it was enough to sour me out on the experience. Should have been handled a lot better. This is what happens when you don’t call me to go along. I’d love to feel sympathy towards you, but am suddenly incapable. :Idiots:Idiots ---

Plus, how the heck am I supposed to try and keep up with you if I can’t do some cheater practice on my own BEFORE you show up and clean house!? Seriously though, I was actually down in NJ that weekend visiting family… Will let you know next time I go somewhere, indoor or out (may not be for awhile though). It’s definitely gonna pop off in Spring, even if I have to sneak out the house once to run ya at CVMP! ---

Keep me posted about spring, I can’t afford to go again until then (unless we get a group of suckers to give me money… :ninja). Seriously though, contemplating buying a TAG kart in spring, depends on funds, and i need a truck. ---

Seriously though, contemplating buying a TAG kart in spring, depends on funds, and i need a truck. Sell the thing we rode to CVMP in and buy the TAG and a truck. I’m no expert on the machines, but if you have questions PM me. I am long overdue for an “Intro to Karting” article for Vlad, but start looking at this site, it’s the most comprehensive karting site in NA. They have a TAG specific section and classifieds as well: [http://ekartingnews.com/forum.php?sid=091864e6d0195035ac42e9a3307aabbf](http://ekartingnews.com/forum.php?sid=091864e6d0195035ac42e9a3307aabbf) ---

i was also checking out the Rotax class, seems more competitive and strict on setup… isn’t that good for someone starting out? [Previous page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/go-karts/247755.md?page=1)
