Scott said the fastest will probably be a 22.9xx on a perfect lap when its hotter. I talked with him a bit and it turns out hes a Sprint car driver!!

You get way more track time and its a lot cheaper, plus you don’t have to race with slow people 😉 JDMjunkie(i think) and myself mixed it up really good. I was glad I was given a neck brace. Oh and good luck getting a job there! You seem like a good kid for it. ---

It was fun, avoid kart #2, it’s a dog 🙂 I smacked a couple you punks good, and my times were steadily dropping (until I got in #2 for the last run, that was a 25.4). I did get some details, the leagues are going to be practice, qualify, race so 3 runs, first two will probably be shorter than the race. The karts are 6.5hp, and they are all a year old, and they have some issues that have to be worked out (Like kart#2, handles like crap) The other 3 karts I drove were fine though. And weight is a killer, I was behind (like 2" behind) Articzap going into the straight, and I was coming out of the corner faster, and he just pulled away, 3 kart lengths by the corner, BUT I could carry a little more speed in the corners. So weight has it’s advantages too. ---
