I just want to hang out with fellow vintage karters run some laps and tinker with my old kart. I have a older a bone with a stock mc5 and wanted to tun it in historical class. BOth events I went to. I was the only historical entrant so I was grouped with much faster karts so I had to be very carefull not to get in there way. is there anyone still racing rear historical ? Or how about chainsaw motors? I may of got into this to late as most of the karts were sidewinders and Yamaha motors. I may have to just run tbo. THanks for letting me share my thoughts.
Mel. Big historic class at Broadhed. If you have never been there it's worth a trip. Outstanding event!
we all go thru our phases of Vintage,,some will never change, but for the majority of us,,,time to settle down and enjoy the people , as much, if not more than the karts themselves....
