SAE Kart article about Jerry Solt - Romero Llamas - 03-14-2017
I found this old link that I had not seen before. Write up on Jerry Solt and his famous SAE karts out of Findlay Ohio.

OpEN Karts
Solt Speedway would not be Solt Speedway without the iconic ‘Open’ class. The Jerry Solt legacy was built upon this unruly class with one’s imagination being the only restriction to the design & power of the kart.
Racing Format - Vintage format of racing the fastest from the back. The day will begin with qualifying, 1 heat race followed by a feature. Unlike a traditional race, bragging rights & honor will go to the hard charger who can defy the odds from the back of the pack. Sandbagging will only be for the faint of heart.
Seems Jerry loves open competition and dirt
.....maybe he's onto something ? Like fun !

We seem to have duplicated a page for SAE karts.
Scott Elkes has a more extensive discussion and photos of SAE karts elsewhere in this part of the Forum.
Also, note that while Romero has described the link he found as "old", it is actually new.
Solt Speedway has reopened for the 2017 racing season. Yay!
