    Richmond, VA Indoor Karting Event, Mar 21, 09

    What ideas do you have to determine the “Fastest Car Club?” For example, we could take the fastest five laps (or some other number of laps) from both clubs and the sum of the lowest times is the winner. Each race is eight minutes and a transponder tracks the time for every lap. Each person will...

    We had a great Polar Bear Run. There were about 40 cars and 80 participants. We cruised from Chester, VA to Ladysmith, VA. We stopped at the Virginia Bazaar in Ladysmith to shop and then cruised to the Flying J to eat. It was a bit to cold to put the top down so everyone had their tops up. Below...

    Richmond, VA-Polar Bear Run, Jan 31, 09

    Mike, I'll be driving the Viper with the top down if the weather is at least 50 degrees. It often fills up about 2 weeks before the event so it's best to sign up and let Fred know if you cannot make it.

    Mike, actually I was thinking about the blue one on the left (i.e., "King of the Hill"). All I need to do is get a twin turbo installed.

    4th of July in Central VA

    Mike, I just found out that this event is for 1988 and older cars and they cannot make an exception for the Vipers. I will take my 39 Chevy instead of my Viper. Let me know if you'd like to ride with me to the event. You could leave your daily driver at the Hardee's in Hopewell.
