Participantoppps, just sent out email. I am repeating it here;
Area to address
1. Spare karts – It is definately needed spares. Limit number of drivers or get more from CK?
2. Ballast transfer – driver should hold responsibility of add or removing ballast. Mashals should have final check before releasing karts out on track.
3. Lost of ballast during race – 1 lap down penalty? DQ?
4. allowing private karters to participate?
5. Speeding up K1 event pace, area to improve?Please add your comment on.

ParticipantI think your suggestion to run K1 later than K2 and K3 is a good solution that we should explore deeper.

ParticipantLuen:
i) Spare kart -> I think we’ll be lucky to get up to 14 karts, right?
ii) Ballasting – was a bit loose…no checking after the race.
iii) Loss of ballast – DQ lah…
iv) Private karters – yes, why not. But looking at the Kosmics, there’s an obvious power difference, but hey, why not run two groups, ie private karters and CRGs together..they can use us for target practice!
– This will also “free up” the CRGs assuming those privateers in the group opt to use their own kart – eg Luen, Naza, Tarmizi, Fazz, Mumu, Mark, Amirul…that’s 7 spare karts already!Run it like MME – 2 classes in the same race…maybe for safety…let the 125 privateers start in front lah…
v) Speeding up K1 event…I thought it was quite speedy already once we got going….we anticipated loss of time due to initial ballasting…but one thing we did that saved time was to just show the grid and let the group arrange themselves on track…like how we do K2…

ParticipantMEMBERSHIP UPDATE: By the way, since Dec 2007, we have had 15 new members paid up to join Kelab my-KART Selangor, of which 8 members signed up today during Round 1.
Naza, Mark and I are working to ensure all the forms are submitted and cards produced asap.

Membermy response posted via email:
I would like to see faster turnaround. So would suggest that k1 payment and ballasting be done by mechanics the day before.
Also would like to keep the kart allocations a little more open, which could mean that we do some form of online ballotting beforehand.
We also need to think about the ballasting situation when swapping drivers: I would suggest that we place ballast for a weight range rather than for specific weights. This would mean that drivers within a range (say) of 65-70kg could share one kart.
Perhaps need to develop these thoughts further.
