ANNOUNCING OUR JULY GRAND PRIX EVENT!
Get your motors runnin'! :D Head out on the highway. Looking for adventure - whatever comes our way!
Mark your calendars now for our JULY GRAND PRIX EVENT at RACE PLACE MOTORSPORTS. This event will be held on Saturday night,JULY 8th at RPM, the awesome indoor go kart track located on Bradshaw Road right off of Highway 50.
We will be racing the "Grand Prix" format and we need at least 10 confirmed racers to sign up in order to make it happen. The Grand Prix format entails everyone racing two 25 lap sessions. The top ten fastest racers then participate in a final race which is also 25 laps. This time we will be competing on the "No Fear" track. :eek:
Every event that we have had at RPM has been a BLAST! So come out and join us for the fun!
A few details:
WHEN:...............SATURDAY, JULY 8th
WHERE:............. RPM 3130 BRADSHAW ROAD
RACE TIME:........ Arrive BY 8:30 pm for check in, trash talk, and prerace instructions. DON'T BE LATE
GEAR.................Gear is provided, but I suggest you bring your own helmet(motorcycle helmet is fine) and driving gloves if you have them. You must wear closed toed shoes. ( You are going to sweat like crazy in the outfit so bring a change of clothes if you p[lan to wear your pants / shirt under the race outfit.)
COST:...............$42 if you have your own helmet or $47 if you need to wear their helmet (the charge is for the headsock they will give to you to wear under the helmet and then it is yours to keep.)
Check in with me in the lobby before you check in at the desk so that you get the kneeriders event discount and so that we don't start without you!
So, mark your calendars for SATURDAY, JULY 8th! Who is in? Respond to this thread or PM me if you plan to participate.

Som,
Sorry you weren't at this one. It was a great GP, with the fast guys all dicing it up! But there was a unique twist...we were on the "NO FEAR" track - not the usual "Dr. Pepper" track...and this made it interesting because none of us were used to that track, and it tested our skill.
THANK YOU TO THE CHEERING SECTION THAT SHOWED UP - JohnParJr and his wife, and Jose (from Tropical Smoothie Cafe). :p
All of the racers were ready to go, and Shane (Speedfreak) and Cory (BBilly) were SUPER FAST! Cory brought a friend, and he quickly got up to speed. KP was faster than ever and actually moved up a notch finishing in the mix in the first two races.
Anyway, all three of the races saw a LOT of dicing, lead changes, and even a bit of "accidental" contact...(well, except for when I got pinned at the start of race 3 - the final). :D
These guys are getting faster every time, and when you are back to visit you'll have to come out and race again. I think they'd surprise you with their current "elevated" speediness! :p
Thanks to all of the racers for some great racing, and even better times with fun people. See you all at the next GP... Pictures to follow.

Thanks to everyone who came out to race last Saturday evening at RPM. As usual, it ROCKED!!! Sorry this post is a little late, but I headed out of town to Vegas bright and early Sunday morning. So, thanks to bbilly, speedfreak72, bbilly's friend, Bela, RB and me for getting out there and mixing it up. It was great fun! With a smaller turnout than usual we were treated to mostly open track which resulted in fewer flags and bumping sessions. Thank goodness! :rolleyes:
The No Fear track was a switch for us and added some spice to the race as we all got used to the track. Personally, I like the No Fear track much better that the Dr. Pepper track. Could it be because I was faster on the NO Fear track? :p
Here are a few pics of the evening. A BIG THANKS to the cheering section which consisted of Shane's wife and two children, who have been to most of the events to cheer us on, and to jonpar, his wife, and Jose! It was fun to see you all there! Next time you MUST race with us.
BTW - Jose, you better PACE yourself! ;) That's 2 Jose sightings in a week! :)

It was another great time (except for losing to RB THREE times!!) You Da Man RB. I will now shut up for a whole month :D
Look like you all had a great times. Thanks for share the pic's. I have a bad feeling that I'm going to get lap by all you when I get back.
