I don't race but on the side my small marketing company works with several local companies on track sponsorships as well as a club team sponsorship. It' a lot of fun as I really enjoy motorsports.

I use to do some 1/4 mile. I didn't really do it to be competitive. I just thought it was fun to build my car and watch it improve time and power wise. I have brouhgt it down from a mid 15 second car to a mid 12 second car. I just recently started auto-x. My next auto-x is at the end of April.

Is your display pic your kart? What chassis is it and did you run with Stars? Have you ever heard of the FWT?

Yep, it's an '04 Birel CR32 with a TM K9B attached. Yea, I ran one STARS race (worst weekend of my life) at Beaverun in '04. If by FWT you mean the Florida Winter Tour then yes, I raced against most the guys that go down there each year. I've raced against a bunch of guys in STAR Mazda, Atlantics, Indy Light, and even G. Rahal and Tomas Scheckter. It's where I wanted to be, but I had a bad accident my senior year of H.S. and lost my shot at F-BMW.

I've never been to a "real" kart race, anything in Indiana? we've got a lot of dirt tracks.

I think you wanted to say I-70, but anyway, I've got the schedule I think I'll check it out this summer.
Thanks
