245/40-17 Kuhmo Ecsta LE Sport

I have a single 245/40-17 kuhmo le sport. It is brand new, never been mounted.

Looking for $100, I can bring it to Frederick on Saturday.

That would be a lot of fun. I'd be interested if we got 10 people to keep the cost down as far as possible.

Yeah, I usually charge a flat hourly rate but Saturday I'll provide free kart competition. :shock:

I signed up for a Hyperdrive, so my day won't just be sitting around adjusting the AOA of Eric's wing.

Re: FRS/BRZ Series??

My car might fit in that category pretty good. It is ~2700lbs, 1.9L 140hp, Front engine, rear drive. Street tires and suspension are okay with me. I'm down about 60hp, I could possibly toss an M52 motor in my car which would put it at 190hp. Might bring it closer to the twins but only if motor swaps...

Re: 2013 CDC Schedule

Aww yeah, I was there for the Hurricross. Plenty of rain at that one.

Last year we had a T&T where it started raining pretty hard. Runs continued until lightning started and then they called it and told everyone to pack up and leave. Probably a safety/insurance issue.

Re: Where to source a roll bar main hoop?

It would be a hike from Bowie but there is a place in Zullinger, PA called Pro Tube. A guy here at work had them put some bends on a piece of DOM to make a part of a Jeep front bumper. He supplied the DOM and a CAD drawing and they charged a pretty small fee, around $20 I think. His bar only had two...

Re: Need Brakes

I had Axxis Ultimates for a while but I didn't like them. Cold stops could be scary and they only felt good when heated up a lot. I'm now on PFC Zs and they are pretty nice, good braking for dd and at autox when tires/brakes get hot they stop really well. I haven't been able to get them to fade on t...

Re: December 15th @ Summit Point Kart

It probably worked out for the best because after that happened I didn't have anyone in front of me and I concentrated on putting in fast laps. So he sort of gave me the right conditions to push for the elite status. You're right though, he did look guilty but he never said anything to me. Here are ...

Re: December 15th @ Summit Point Kart

Haha awesome! We'll have to find a day to go back and try out the super karts.

I was so surprised that I got elite, especially after my "friend" on the track pit maneuvered me on the second lap.

Re: December 15th @ Summit Point Kart

I have an email SPK sent back in November saying they offer 5 sessions for $60. That's not a bad deal at all and maybe better if it is your first time. While I am sore the next day, it is a blast and definitely worth it. 5 rides for $60 + tax, 5 arrive and drive rides the day of purchase (membership...

Yeah, I still have some credits on my account. We got there early last time and it was fairly chilly. I just remember the tires on the karts and the track surface were definitely not up to temp and we were sliding all over the place. Until the tires get hot you can't push very hard. I got black flag...

Re: Teams?

Requiring team members to set times in each other's cars could potentially keep people from participating. I could see people not pushing as hard or being worried that they will mess something up on a car they aren't familiar with.

I think 2 best runs for each driver in their own car sounds good.
