Hey Scott Ingersoll
Think, ice, 500cc 100 hp. Methanol burner, almost no suspension, no left foot peg, and only one gear but a couple hundred spikes. no brakes, all on about a 1/3 mile oval track.
Speedway racing. Jess needs to expand her horizons... The action starts at about 2:15 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NBFz-eErnfM |

We signed up for a street race a couple weeks back but it got cancelled so we raced on 4 wheels... I won my first race ever, but it was the womens class I ended up racing in so I got disqualified for carrying "illegal spare parts" :) and Jess got the trophy.... It was a blizzard that night and a make up event so they gave me a free race as long as I didn't mind racing the girls... I came in last in the first moto, but had the best lap time in the second moto and it was about lap times:) Jess loved racing on 4 wheels, hummmmmmm.... |

I've never ridden in a go-cart on a track, or anywhere else for that matter. I'd like to, one of these days. There used to be a track pretty close to the house, down on Eisenhower Blvd, but I think the Alexandria jail is there now. Probably where all those go-karters went too!

One, with practically no body fat, she hates the cold... Second, when we tried to get her to do GPX last year she wanted jumps and banked corners:) We may go do an ArenaCross race this year but I am not sure if she is quite ready for that meat grinder yet... Well, I think she's ready but if she doesn't, we are not gonna' do it... ArenaCross would be a step up in competition, would be the best in the country and it's a tough track.... |
