GARY YOU BROKE MY HEART! YOU MEAN TO TELL ME AT 72 (QUICKLY APPROACING 73) WITH BAD KNEES, I'M NOT AS SHARP AS I WAS IN 1974. IN 74, I HAD CAMPAINED MY DUAL B-BOMB STARDUSTER FOR A COUPLE OF YEARS EVERY AVAILABLE SUMMER WEEKEND AT NAVARRE AND/OR KUGLERS. ARE YOU SUGGESTING THAT A COUPLE OF EVENTS A YEAR NOW AREN'T ENOUGH TO BRING BACK THE OLD TOUCH?
AT ONE MEMORABLE WKA RACE AT KUGLERS, I BEAT THE KING AND WEINER IN C-OPEN. WEINER RAN AWAY WITH THE FIRST HEAT WITH A PAIR OF EXTREMELY FAST BMS. BURDEN LOST A CHAIN AND RETIRED TO THE PITS. WEINER GRENADED A SUPPOSEDLY BULLET PROOF BM IN THE SECOND HEAT AND WAS DONE FOR THE DAY. THE KING FINISHED SO FAR AHEAD, I WASN'T SURE I COULD SEE HIM. IN THE THIRD HEAT BURDEN LOST ANOTHER CHAIN. WITH ONE MONSTER BIG J MOTOR HE WAS HARD TO RUN DOWN AND PASS WITH MY "FACTORY MODIFIEDS" BUT I GOT IT DONE AND WON THE DAY. NOW I HAVE MORE ENGINES THAN I HAD THEN, BUT I'M SO EASILY DISTRACTED WITH THE LATEST KART TOY OFF EBAY OR PICKED UP AT A RACE DAY THAT I CAN'T SEEM TO PUT THE PARTS TOGETHER FOR A HAIR RAISING DRIVE WITH A COUPLE OF BOMBS.
BUTCH K HAD THE ANSWER FOR THOSE WHO WANT TO FINISH NEAR THE FRONT. YOU NEED TO FINISH ALL THREE HEATS. IN ONE +60 EVENT THERE WERE 10 KARTS STARTED IN THE FIRST HEAT. THE THIRD HEAT ENDED WITH TWO KARTS STILL RUNNING (INCLUDING BUTCH).
SMOKEY
