They gotta be open Sunday. The main page is misleading and TSR has been misled. If you look at the ‘pricing and hours’ link, Sunday comes up during the winter season. Plus, I doubt John would call them up to arrange 20-30 ppl w/o arranging a date.

Okay guys just to clear the air here:

They are open on Sunday.

And it’s $1.00 per lap (my bad) sorry. It’s not $20.00 per lap :lol: I meant $20.00 for 20 laps.

TSR needs to updater their crap. But you had me going there for a second, I had to call them again, to confirm again!

It was fun.

Who was the guy who got the #18 slug kart? The "de tuned"one. lol

Sorry that I had to bail early got to get ready for pocketbiking tonight. Woohoo.

Only got to meet some of you though, Bing, S13G, Hector, and I don’t remember…lol. Nice to meet you if I met you.

Lets do it again sometime, hopefully smaller numbers though…40 laps. two sessions of 20.

Good times everyone, nice to meet some of you guys.

I was the one with the slug kart in the first heat. Damn thing had me so frustrated, watching someone that had to be 200lbs (im 145, so almost a 60lb difference) fly by me on the straight haha. If i had known that something was actually wrong with the kart, I wouid have tried to switch up karts, but I just stuck with it, and let people get bunched up behind me hahahahah. Really though, my average time was roughly 4 seconds behind everyone elses (mine was around 39.5), and my best time was 37.4. Now, i know it COULD have just been cuz i havent gone karting in a long time, but i refuse to believe that, for the aforementioned reasons.

It was the kart for sure. I normally run 34-33’s there consistantly with slips to prove. I have run 32.9x before, that was a lucky day for me.

Yeah, I weigh 130 on a good day and I was gettting freight trained in that kart on the straight, good drive or bad drive coming out of corners.

DEATH to number #18

We were there last night and kart #18 ran the fastest and the best, hands down…apparetnly, they “de tuned” it this morning…someone there said that, who was it?

Ya I was talking to one of the guys there and they said that number 18 was running fast, so they had to slow it down haha. You were saying that the kart was cutting out in corners, I didnt notice that, but i havent been there before, so without driving another kart I wouldnt know how to compare their performance/sound (if there was a sound).

Yet again John you have set up a great meet. It was nice to see different people then the last meet to allow more names and faces to be put together. Although I had expected Bing to be taller 😃 Can’t wait until the next meet.
