Title: June 16 - K1 Speed Go-Kart Competition
Post by: admin on January 31, 2007, 11:29:08 AM
K1-Speed Go-Kart Competition

Are you up for the challenge?!  How does driving an Italian Electric Pro Kart with 20HP (faster than most gas carts) on an indoor track - against fellow members sound to you?  If you're interested read on!

The K1-Speed Mini Grand Prix includes 14 Qualifying Laps and 16 Final Laps - in groups of 8.  Your times will be displayed on the score board and monitors as you race; lap times to the 100th of a second, speed and positions.  At the end of each race, you'll receive a detailed result card. FYI: Kids must be 12 and up to participate.  We plan to have "ladies only" run groups, so please, indicate this on your RSVP.

After karting medals will be awarded for 1st, 2nd, & 3rd while we have lunch.

Wear comfortable clothing and closed shoes.


Time:   10:00 AM

OK - I'm going into training for this event, trying out a new indoor electric kart track just north of the Valley, near the 210 & 5, in Sylmar called MB2 next week. BTW, when I race 125cc Sprint Karts at Jim Hall in Ventura, they adjust qualifying times by 1/10 second for every 10 lbs. above/below the median of the race group. But since K-1 is probably not going to adjust, there's still time to diet.

Hey David,

You'll need to share some of your dieting secrets with me.  I'll need lots of seconds to keep up with the pack on this one.  Should be fun though.

Is anybody going to the monthly stop at PAG car show at 7am, then to breakfast, and then to K-1?
Title: Re: June 16 - K1 Speed Go-Kart Competition
Post by: ViperX on June 13, 2007, 02:27:09 PM
I'll probably make the PAG show but won't be there until about 7:30 AM.  We will need to leave early to make the 10:00 AM start time at K-1.  Breakfast after PAG would be good.  There's a little spot in the mall across the street from PAG that we could eat at.

What fun and thanks to Dan and Cathy for all their work putting this together. The facility, the game plan, and lunch were first class and I'm sure enjoyed by all. I'll vote to do this once or twice each year. Thanks again.

I had a blast.  Even though I have yet to turn a single hot lap in my Viper, it's these baby steps that will hopefully put my wife's mind at ease eventually.  Timing out in the top 10 Percentile, and winning my heat should tell her that I'm ready to rock >7


Thanks to Dan and CAthy for another great event <2

Lance won the "race group" handily.  He started on the pole, finished first and was never really challenged.  The guys behind him continued to bump and rub each other with multipe crashes.  Did I hear the word "practice" in one of his previous posts? >1

I can't remember all of the winners of the various groups.  Cathy won her heat despite a hard dive into the wall on the last lap and a trip to the chiropractor today.

I went from 5th to fininsh 3rd in my heat.  Gary Belvedere won that one as I recall.

One of my sons finished third in his heat and his girl friend won her heat too.

Overall, the track manager was surpised at how well we were able to run at this track.  A couple of our guys posted some very fast times. ^2
