THE GOOD
THE WEATHER WAS GREAT WITH SUNSHINE AND LOW 80S. MR. MAX TORQUE WAS ALL OVER THE PLACE HELPING THOSE IN NEED. ALL OF THE RACES THAT I WATCHED FAILED TO HAVE ANY MASSIVE ENGINE FAILURES NEAR THE END OF THE SHORTENED STRAIGHT. THE TURNS SEEMED TO BE THE SPOT FOR ENGINE FAILURES. THE FRIVOLOUS ARGUMENT THAT VINTAGE MODEL ENGINES WILL NOT WITHSTAND JACKSONVILLE 'S ENTIRE STRAIGHTAWAY DIDN'T PROVE TO HAVE ANY VALIDITY ON ENGINES THAT USED TO RUN HOUR LONG ENDUROS ON SPORTSCAR TRACKS.
VINCE K. HAD THE GOOD FORTUNE TO BE OFFERED A RIDE ON A SHARP LOOKING KT100 STOCK TWIN. UNFORTUNATELY, THE POWERS THAT BE DECIDED TO COMBINE THE TWIN YAMAHA STOCK CLASS WITH THE MODIFIED CLASS. THIS ELIMINATES ANY HOPE FOR THE STOCKERS TO RUN TO THE FRONT OF THEIR CLASS.
THE C OPEN REAR KARTS PUT ON THEIR USUAL TOPFLIGHT HEATS. THERE WERE ENOUGH DUAL SIDEWINDERS AND YAMAHA SIDEWINDERS TO PRODUCE LOTS OF TWIN THUNDER AND LIGHTNING.
THE BAD
ONLY 53 KARTS WERE AROUND FOR THE START OF THE RACES. ONLY TWO JUNIORS WERE ENTERED. ONE CAN HOPE THAT THE UNNECESSARY TINKERING WITH BARNESVILLE DOESN'T PRODUCE THE SAME RESULT.
SEAN K (THE ENGINE DESTROYER) STUCK TWO KT100S IN PRACTICE AND PRODUCED THE SAME RESULT IN HIS FIRST HEAT. HE MATCHED HIS PRIOR RECORD OF 3 MACS DOWN AT ONE EVENT WITH THREE YAMAHAS (SUPPOSEDLY ALMOST BULLETPROOF) DOWN AT ONE EVENT.
GARY W OUR PROPAGANDA MINISTER FAILED TO MAKE THE EVENT.
THE UGLY
ONE OF THE VINTAGE KARTERS HAD HIS VEHICLE STOLEN LAST NIGHT AT HIS HOTEL. IN ADDITION TO THE VEHICLE HE LOST VINTAGE ENGINES AND SOME MONEY.
LAST YEAR TWO CLOWNS THREW NAILS UNDER MY TRAILER TIRES AT THE TRACK. I HAD THREE BLOWOUTS IN THE SHORT TRIP FROM JACKSONILLE TO NAPLES. THE OTHER THREE TIRES ON THE GROUND IN JACKSONVILLE HAD NAILS IN THEM.
IT'S BEEN REPORTED THAT SEVERAL COMPLETE RIGS (VEHICLE AND TRAILER) WERE STOLEN FROM THE TRACK AT A PRIOR 4 STROKE RACE.
