How about the left one?

SP2 will durometor 40 - 42/43 ...the last 2 years I checked evey tire that I had or sold and not (1) was under 40...we are talking over 100 tires so as per my rules it's 40 (BEFORE) a race or quailifing...39 you are done period!!! (that tire)...you do not want to go down the tire prepping route....what drove me out of karting....800.00 per state race....crazy!!

2012 midgets around all day for 8-10K...add a $500/$900 STOCK long block then your bolt on stuff..fuel pump..injectors...electronics....bell housing....close to $13-14K...all have starters and clutches...no need for push trucks....189 HP...cut the head maybe 196... Price to rebuild $168.00...just did it...

when ROUSH took over that deal it went down hill...12K for a motor....somebody was making $$$$$....then again WHO'S fault was it???? USAC cause they needed to make X amount at the racers expenice...

Weight...935 "STOCK" 1000cc .... 1000lbs. STOCK 1200cc....1125lbs. STOCK 2.0-2.4...Ford/Chevy/Honda/Quad 4...it is a win win for everyone....

sub...if a picticular combo starts to dominate 4 or more wins in a row...slow'm down with a harder RR or add weight...see how easy that is...

NONE OF THIS IS POSSIBLE WITHOUT TECH.....BY THE BOOK IN BLACK AND WHITE...NO MATTER WHO IS GETTING TECHED

A>S>A>P>! As soft as possible. Don't know about you guys but we drive off of the left rear.

Since we have had so much problem with Cycle motors lately, It might be a good idea to buy one of AJ's older midgets and then build an Echo tec for it. Should be able to get a good deal from Tim on an injection set up, I can build the headers and all we would need would be a clutch deal to go racing.

I got $600.00 in that dry sump pump and built the tank, It wasn't the dry sumps fault it was a couple of main bearing bores in the blocks that went out of round and dropped our oil pressure.

It is a Kawasaki thing you just would not understand!

Next problem is finding some place to race,

Brian? got that garage located yet?

Bill? Jerry? either one of you guys open to a very fast experimental car?

PAPA OUTLAW? how far is it to the Bull Ring from Louisvile KY?

Phil? Got any room out west for different type of Eco Lite Sprint?

The only reason I brought up the tire prep deal is because I think we all know..........it is probably being utilized by a few. Maybe a hell of a lot more than a "few." But the way I look at it, even if you have a spec tire rule..........durometer check is a must unless you have an "open tire" rule. Just because a racer has a tire that says it's one thing.......it might durometer something completely different due to treatments. To be honest......our group back this way runs an open tire. Couldn't get Hoosier or American Racer to kick in enough to make it worth mandating their tire. Plus.....we haven't seen any big advantage since everyone is either running a Hoosier 12, 15, SP2 or American Racer 33 or 38. Quite a few of our guys have went the American Racer route simply due to price. Anyway.........seems a durometer reading as you COME OFF the track would solve some of the tire issues??? However.......I realize some groups depend on a tire manufacturer supporting them financially in some way.

If you can get a good deal on tires for the racer do it. Ask the American racer guy what kind of deal he can give you on 10 maybe 20 tires. Each one of them guys is a dealer try shopping another one for price also some of them want to sell more tires than others.

I would probably set a checking pressure also. Maybe 15 or 20 psi. Those big old wide tires will check different in the middle at low tire pressure's.

We had that problem, but we fixed it... now we drive off both.

We are working toward that end but being hill billy's we are a little slow. Maybe in another couple of years.

I am a Hoosier dealer for the series but I DO NOT mandate you have to run Hoosiers....Everyone gets the tires at cost...I give Connie a call and they order whatever tire they need...but if you want the contengenciey $$ for a race you have to have hoosiers on all 4 corners,,,American Racers are a better deal $$$ wise but but they wanted to mandate EVERYONE on AR and I feel not to mandate what tire a racer choices to run as long as the RR is 40 on the durometor...not 39.9
