When I called I talked to Rachel and this is the best price she could give us. I even told her that if she told people that 25 S2000 were going to be in her parking lot that it might bring people to Dromo One, and she said that they are already busy on the weekends. She said if we did it during the week we could get a break, but week days are not good for me. If you could call your friend over there and see what you can work out that would be great. I will take care of everything else, I just want a better price. See what you can do.

And congradulations on the future wedding, I have been married almost 2 years and I love it.

There is a famous saying that goes

"Being married is like having a nice, hot, soothing bath, after a while it's not so HOT."

Hope to hear from you soon, and e-mail me dates that are good for you.

vechvoodoo oh I am sorry I ment vtecvoodoo

If we do this event after your wedding your times won't be as fast because it is harder to push down on the throttle with a BALL AND CHAIN attached to your ankle.

Thanks for the help keep me posted, and sorry for the misspelling of your name.

Cool, then maybe we'd have a chance at beating Ryan.

Better watch out for Ultimate Lurker. I heard he's a pretty good dromo driver.

UL`s pretty fast? My buddy is very very close to the track record right now. He`s a 140lb`er that races shifters so he doesn`t count

I've been known to take pole and fastest laps, and I'm pretty consistent. However, at 6'2" and 210 lbs, my mass and Cg put me at a serious disadvantage to the little shits of the world :-).

So at Dromo I have to qualify well and nail the turns because the lightweights come flying up (or go pulling away) in the straightaway. Last time I was there I suggested ballast. A 60-70 lbs difference is a lot when the kart itself only weighs about 200-250 lbs.
