The data from our data logger said we never got past 50% throttle the whole race, a drivers race track, The track was pretty slick the way go karters like it. They will probably change the track over for PowerI and if they do it should lend itself to some pretty good side by side racing for us.

Sounds like a Track that is based on more luck on the draw than skill on the track? Draw up front and never get off the bottom you have a good chance on winning.

It can be a tough place to pass, but at the race last March we started 13th and ran 2nd. Some of it was through attrition, but we also passed cars. Hopefully the track will be prepped for cars this time rather than trying to run karts, cars etc.

You are welcome to come with the Focus. Guess the only thing we will need to know is if any push vehicles will be needed. If they can be push started with a ATV there really should not be any problems.
