I have been involved in NHRA for way too long, and I got started in karts in the 1980's mostly with WKA, and since I have gotten the Bug Stinger "Time Capsule" and have been talking with people about it, I have found out several things. One, most everyone I have talked with on the phone has kept me on the line for a MINIMUM of 30 minutes offering suggestions, advice, and some good old bench racing! Love this! Two, anyone I have been in contact with that is involved in Vintage karting are some of the friendliest people that I have met! Without a doubt way more friendly and pleasant that the people that I deal with running the Clone Sit Up Sprint in WKA. Now don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that everyone in WKA is a butthole, far from it, but there is too much "competitive-ness" and it is hard to get started or find out information.
I'm working on restoring the Stinger and putting it back to as close to original as I can, and I just wanted to say "Thank You" to everyone that I have talked with so far, on the phone, via email, on Facebook, and here on the forums and I'm looking forward to talking to quite a few more people in the future! Without a doubt Vintage karters have to be the nicest people involved in karting that I have found. Even if I don't get the "Time Capsule" finished, I still have the 74/75 Coyote Laydown with the K88 that I can bring out to an event, and if nothing else, spend some more time with some of the friendliest people in karting! My hats off to you fine people!
