Anyone up for the first annual "24 hours of Garner"?? I guess we need to work on that name a bit.


I still think we need to press for some ballast weight for the smaller/lighter folks. Us big guys are at a serious hp/weight disadvantage with these things pushing 6-9 HP..... Maybe my wife was right all along with her motto "salad equals speed".....too bad she springs that on me when we're at the best buffet places...


Bret.


Already ask about that. They do weight balancing of the cars so everyone is the same weight in challenge races, or you race in weight clases :)

"Clydesdale" class here I come!!

I dont know if they put us all in the same weight classes, add weight to the lighter guys karts, or a combination of both depending on race type.

They have in it mountain bike racing, so why not? :lol:

I saw on the website that it's partnered with Greenshields, so that's cool. I guess they moved from downtown to Garner? :?
Good crabcake sandwiches if it's a restaurant too.

Last I heard, they caught on fire. They are going to be reopening in Cary, I believe, but they are there until they get it all resolved.
