So it does matter which kart we use of the three at this race? So I get the fast one everybody else gets the slow ones!

As with NASCAR I haven't raced the Karts much at all. So this should be a fun one if everybody shows up like the NASCAR race. Should be another fun night at the Tuna's! ;D

If you have not tried this before or if it has been a while do yourself a favor and make it out for at least a couple of them.

going to try to attend as well...

you might want to switch between mini and mini-reverse after a few races because that's a nice way to keep things more fresh.

just a thought.

I am encouraging everyone to drive with the in cockpit view and to use your steering wheel if you have access to one.also please be patient of those trying this for the first time your periphreal vission is different.

that's what I prefer too, though as you say looking side to side is harder.

it's easy to forget your NOT the one holding that digital representation of a wheel in front of you.

 :laugh

that's how I feel about Monopoly with my son.  I grab up the good properties and stick my tounge out.

Looney, I had visiting familiy too and we went out to dinner.  I should have checked the Host_Tuna room to see if anyone was still in there, cuz it sounds like it was active 'till kinda late.

DOH!

Flash correct me if I am wrong but didn't you start off the night running in the 38's and finished the night getting into the 36's? Nice job whittling it down over the event.

did most people use the 100s or 125s?
Title: Re: 4/26/12 ToC - Karts @ Autumn Ring Mini
Post by: Wiz on April 27, 2012, 02:27:25 PM
I think we all used the 125's.
