Chicago Indoor racing go-karts - snakebite46 - 11-19-2005
Man, I'm getting old. Back is hurting, arms feel like they weigh a ton now. Wiped out !!!
Chicago Indoor racing go-karts - HAGASAN - 11-19-2005
Good time tonight! Thanks Ryan for getting it all hooked up. One sore-azz mofo here.
Chicago Indoor racing go-karts - FreeRideFrosty - 11-19-2005
That was awesome. And yeah... it pretty much boiled down to your weight. The heavier guys just cant go into a corner like the light ones. Still a ton of fun and I would have no problem forkin over the cash to go again. Well worth it. They even let us race an extra qualifier race since they were behind. They feel so much faster and powerful than the really are. My real car fealt so slow and sloppy on the way home. I found myself speeding by A LOT several times. I'm still kind of high off of it. Great time guys...
Chicago Indoor racing go-karts - cemeb4dk - 11-19-2005
Yep, Old and fat....
Dude it was my plan to sit back and wait for you to screw up....
It was good times, in about 6 months and 80lbs less I'll be ready to go again
Chicago Indoor racing go-karts - Mr. Tune - 11-19-2005
Yeah I hear ya guys. My arms feel like jello after 90 laps of racing.
Chicago Indoor racing go-karts - snakebite46 - 11-19-2005
LOL, man I was flying around the corner and saw 2 cars sideways, jammed on the brakes and slide right in between both of them. Then here you come and calm and slow right threw the traffic...........
Revenge is mine.............Muhahahahhahahahah
80 pounds ? damn we need to lose 120+ to stand a chance against those guys !!!!!!
Thanks Ryan for the ride and hooking it up.

You just didn't want to talk to her... don't lie. :bustingup It was fun as hell. I think I could shave a few pounds to be quicker but seeing that I am 6'3" ish it will be hard to ever touch ryan the "so thin he's almost invisible".
Chicago Indoor racing go-karts - Michowski - 11-19-2005
no problem guys. Glad everyone had fun. I know i sure did. Rich you also might wanna try driving without the brakes on next time
LMFAO. Hopefully we can hire someone to take out kevin cuz man that dude was brutal. He just hit ya and spin ya out without even thinking about it. I said I would take him out in the finals and i did. Im proud of that. For once i was proud to hack the hack and take a victory.
Chicago Indoor racing go-karts - MX_KEVIN - 11-19-2005
Ouch that hurt Ryan, theres some rubbin in racin. I guess watching cops too much has me doing the PIT Manuver on everyone. Fun times indeed.
It was looking like I was a sure thing to take victory honors, sitting in pole posiition, but I got into lapped traffic and was pushing to hard, got a little loose after the shucane and spun out. My rival was there to take full advantage of the situation and the rest goes down in history.
As 1st loser Id like to take this moment to thank the many sponsors that helped me get to where I am today in the competitive sport of cart racin. First and formost, My wife, kids and the lord Jesus Christ. Then thers the many other people that helped get my cart dialed, I wouldnt be here without them Dunlop, VP race fuels, Sunco, Craftman Tools, Red Bull, Jim Beam, Sony, and C.I.R.. You guys are great and wouldnt of been able to do it without ya. Til next time :wavey:
Kevin
Chicago Indoor racing go-karts - rocco79 - 11-19-2005
Those were more fun than i thought was possible!!! Thanks ryan!!!
I had a great time! 30 -35 mph doesnt sound like much.... Untill your diving into a corner 2 inches behind the guy in front of you fighting for the same line!! Every cool!
I didnt think cart racing would kick my butt the way it did. My arms were wasted and i was completley exsausted.
I would of had third place if it wasnt for a certain somebody.... Lets just call him the "Greek Wall"!!!! LOL!!!!
Let the fast carts by basher!!! LOL!!!
For a fat guy i think i did pretty good!!!
Chicago Indoor racing go-karts - SixVi6-Camaro - 11-19-2005
Hell that was cool just to watch and film. I'm all over it next time and look out because if you think michowski is light.. hehe. I got him beat.
Chicago Indoor racing go-karts - FreeRideFrosty - 11-19-2005
we should totally set up another one for sometime after christmas...
Chicago Indoor racing go-karts - SixVi6-Camaro - 11-19-2005
Kevins got lots o' video footage I took for him. I think a cool Music video is in order.
We got to set up another one for sure after the holidays!
Chicago Indoor racing go-karts - Mr. Tune - 11-19-2005
LOL, with only like 10 guys at the track max, with a big enough group, there could be A and B mains
.
Chicago Indoor racing go-karts - FreeRideFrosty - 11-19-2005
That would be nice. We would need 16 to make a good a and b main. I'm sure I could round up a few with enough notice...
Chicago Indoor racing go-karts - MX_KEVIN - 11-19-2005
how many would it take to open up that place to use both tracks as one big one? that would be cool.
time to slim down ,im starting my diet right after i eat my burito
Chicago Indoor racing go-karts - Michowski - 11-19-2005
kevin you dont need to do anything, your already just FAST the way you are. You had every turn dialed in and the speed to stay far ahead of everyone. Just gotta work on not hacking me lol.
Chicago Indoor racing go-karts - rocco79 - 11-19-2005
I felt as i had just finally "learned' the fast line when the main was almost over... Damit!
Chicago Indoor racing go-karts - Michowski - 11-19-2005

Chicago Indoor racing go-karts - rocco79 - 11-19-2005
