This is a personal posting. Delete if you do not have any interest in what makes me tick. Yes, I am writing it more for myself than for anyone else. ...
Well, it is late and I am tired. And I made an error. That posting was supposed to go to the "send later" file where it could stay until I finished it, and...
Alan, My condolences to you and your family for your recent loss. That was a remarkable story. How you stayed focused to bring home a victory is beyond me....

Hi there. I'm still shopping for my first used 125, and I have found what looks like a decent kart here in Boulder. It's been used for one season of track...
From the description it does not look like it has been altered too much. If there was a programmable ignition in it before, and then they went back to stock...
Cheap, barely used shifter in Texas. The guy has two, if you and a buddy want to have matching rides. Of course, with Yamaha power, you'd be going over to the...
Dale, If you wanted to return the motor to nearly stock configuration, it would only cost another $400 or so. (New cylinder, head, piston/rings and PV plugs)...
Tired of pulling those exhaust springs with the pliers or vice-grips? Tired of busting your knuckles? I have a small puller, keep it in the tool box in the...
Good call Alan... Hey, speaking of exhaust springs, what do you or others use? My CR kept shedding stock springs at the track, and from what I hear, it's ...
Swapping out of those items might only be a temporary change. KAC is discussing the issues involved. This kart and others with the features it has will likely...

Everyone say Hi to Greg Meier, a Chicago area autocrosser who is looking to get into FJr (well for his son I presume!) He drives a Mustang in SM locally. Since...
Speaking as somebody who has lost no less than 5 exhaust springs in one weekend (and completed an entire run in Topeka one handed while holding on the exhaust...

Darren, Thanks. One of the WKA hotshoes told be about the Copper Exhaust RTV trick too. I'm going to try and scare up some rumored "really nice" onces at a...
Shoei M2000 RF-900 helmet. Blue, Blue and White. Yes, it has the Suzuki GSXR graphics, but you can cover those up with some Honda or SCCA stickers, as they...
This exhaust spring thing really gets me. Maybe I'm missing something, but the design is terrible. It's a very stiff spring in a lot of preload with a natural...
Try safety wiring the springs to the pipe. Use heavy wire or a double strand of wire wound about itself. Wrap it around the springs and pipe at the springs...

I *love* posts that make me think. Out of curiosity, would the dimensional amplitude of the cycling be a factor in the rate of fatigue? It does seem like the...
