new castle ..(it was a hot one .!!) - steve miller - 06-18-2017
first off I wanna give special thanks to jeff T. for taking me out there and dealing with me and all my issues ..
and thanks to all the others that helped ..
I tried something way outta my rhelm..I had good time even though I got passed by everyone and most everything in site ..!!
including my rev grip .
then close to home right rear tire and wheel off my truck passed me at 70 mph .15 miles from home after driving 300 miles.lol..
jeees i brought a butter knife to an all out gun fight ..holy i found out a stone stock mc91b with box muffler dry clutch and gas wasn't the best choice in my arsenal of vintage karts for 6.1 rear class ..motor ran perfect just wasn't enough ..Lol..

I was watching Friday during Vico "s heat race . For his first time racing, on a comparatively huge track, he did very well.
It was a pleasure meeting and talking to a great young man and hope he can attend more events . Way to go Vico !
Oh Yea , it was as hot and humid as it ever gets in the Midwest !

Heck, play the odds. Enter 1 in every class, bring a bunch of those old timers in your collection. More for the kart show!

Sterling:
Every single heat, I came in fourth. Last heat I got to mow some grass, and spun out. Caught back up, though. The kart did very well, same with the engine.
Awesome time meeting everyone and cruising around the pits everyday to see some people I haven't met.

Vico, you are one cool kid. Let me know if you ever need anything. Also if you get to the Charlotte area look me up. I'll hook you up with a personal tour of Ganassi. And I can get you in touch with some people to do the same at other shops.
