I thought we should start a new thread to discuss the Karting and post pictures, videos, etc.

Edit by TM - Posting all pictures and videos to http://www.tmcarthur.net/r2p/08karting/
Feel free to post yours or email them to me and I will upload them.

That was a blast. Great meeting everyone and looking forward to the next event.

Our group got a "good job" of racing by the spectators. We had respectful driving with minimal spins and that made for a great show. We were a fast group, i didn't see another group of racers with a board full of 18-19's like we did.

This event was great fun. I am glad we put it together and stuck it out, when they did not have power. It was fun to meet everyone, and put a face with a name.

It was definitely a great time meeting everybody, even though the event almost didn't happen!

That is Rob above in the #7 I am right behind him in the #24, which is were I spent most of the night.....behind :P

I have uploaded a few pics and a bunch of videos to Tim's ftp, maybe Tim or someone in the know can link to them. I broke them into folders for practice, heat 1, heat 2, A main and B main folders so everyone can find themselves easier.

That was a blast, thanks for getting it organized Tim. I hope we can do more in the future, maybe even a NASA HPDE event or something. Great meeting everyone in person.

My Best 18.41

Lucky for me I found out the seats are adjustable just before the Main.
