How above the 7eleven off of Euclid at 6:20-6:30.

It looks like it'll just be Casey and I in my car. Chris dropped out.

6:20-6:30 sounds good, PM me your cell, I think I have Casey's, but just in case something changes! I would assume you are talking about the 7-11 gas station, altough I think direction wise a Taco Hell/Bum King off Liberia/28 is a better spot!

It's not supposed to start until 11pm, maybe 12 so it shouldn't be bad.

I've called the place a couple of times over the past 2 hrs and haven't gotten a response. So I guess we're just going to play it by ear on the Pizza thing. If it ends up not being an option then I guess we'll just eat after.

Yeah. From my house on Forestdale.

My friend Frank is also coming. He'll be in a blue E55 AMG or a gold Saab turbo convertible. If you see him before I get there say hello!

Here are the videos from my helmet cam if anyone wants to watch them. You can see how bad the "detuned" super kart was the second run by watching the first few laps, it was hopping all over the place.

first race:

My kart was hopping too. Don't be a sore loser, Mike ;-).


Yours was hopping worse though. I would have demanded a free race!

yeah, it was one of the 9 hp superkarts, but they detuned it to have less power than the normal karts so with it's stickier tires it should have been the same speed, but I don't think they stickier tires helped me any

Ian, I'm up for a rematch any time
