Tripleskate Posted October 12, 2009 Report Share Posted October 12, 2009 I'm not with the SCCA, however I might show up for this. Isn't it really expensive though, like 55$? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheBussman1647545507 Posted October 12, 2009 Report Share Posted October 12, 2009 i just got a kart kt100 non-shifter, thinking of taking it out because the fee is only $15, don't know how fun it would though, i mean the tires would only be half warm by the time you finish right? I also don't know if my gearing is going to be low enough 11/90? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also don't know if my gearing is going to be low enough 11/90? I think that's plenty low - I think the kids are running mid 80T rears, not sure on fronts, but 11T is pretty small.

Checked DLB Racing (I've been a "chief" for so long I didn't remember) - it shows "New SCCA Member $38.00". With the new rules everyone has to be a member (temporary as needed) to run. Not real cheap, but better than $55! That's preregistered, I don't know if it's any more registering that morning. I don't think so, but not sure.

If it were me, I'd run the 82T. We try and run a pretty "flowing" course, so more top end should be preferable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJ Posted October 14, 2009 Report Share Posted October 14, 2009 i'll be there too as will ash. now should i make her my tire warmer or should i be nice since the car doesn't turn at all on cold tires and run before her? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJ, As old as those tires are and with as many runs as they have, they probably won't get warm enough no matter who runs first. You both make the most of them for sure. Are new tires in the plans yet for next year? Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know, for the price of a set of those tires, you could get a kart. One that you and Ashley could both drive..... The dark side is calling..... A cheaper way to FTD....... See you Saturday!
