talking about kart breakdowns…I still love the “Ashraff walk of shame” back to the pits…makes me laugh every time!! ha hahahah…. hey, next race, will one of you photographers catch this on camera??…it’s a classic, I guarantee you!…
[quote=naza][quote=sabelt]No point having the latest approved helmet without fastening it properly. PERIOD. [/quote]
…..in fact no point having ANY helmet if it was not fastened properly. That reminds me….must check whether my family members know how to fasten them properly.
Maybe, we introduce “how to fasten the helmet properly” briefing in mykart’s monthly races similar to MAS stewardess briefing on how to fasten seat belt, life jacket….etc……but we dont have mykart stewardess (our own Steward AROC? …….no?).[/quote] maybe we could ask W & J to do the demonstration?…. 🙂
hmm…next time if Deanna joins us for a K1 race, we better weigh her properly after the race…who knows, there may be 0.5 kg missing due to an arm or leg that fell off?? ha haha..

jules et al…. i would go with the open spec – policing is going to be difficult otherwise. however, we should implement ballast for the top 3 finishers for the next rounds etc.

brader – let’s end the discussion on this. rolling starts are preferred for my-kart races. this –
i/ avoids clutch burn
ii/ is safer as all karts are at similar speed (standing starts are prone to some slow off the line)
iii/ fairer for slightly heavier drivers (less inertia to overcome)——————————————————
http://www.thefazz.com/me%5B/quote%5D I strongly support…we have lots of experience in rolling starts and it has not been an issue for my-kart races…by the time a karter gets to K1 he/she would be very well versed on it….just need a little “controlled agression” at the 1st corner that’s all….and point (iii) is very important for me!![quote=Jules]I cannot understand too and we will never do standing starts on 125….PERIOD. Foul plugs will be 50% reason all will be stranded.
Actually the 1st corner after the start on the 1st lap is taken slower than norm so I dunno why this is dangerous. Controlled agression is called for and I expect some bumping here as well, all done at slower speed so it’s ok – so that’s part of the accepted game.
Of course spinners are not welcomed….he he he
[/quote] …agreed, I think everyone was controlled at the first corner…except that spinner dude…
i had no trouble with my kart’s power, but the brakes were awful. I was pumping at it as soon as I approached the start/finish line…
[quote=ed]halamarkkk… why la choose the 15th…?!?
sorry fellas… got to sit out this one…
vw avatarveedubs rulez![/quote] AJK Makan will be “jalan jalan cari makan” in Sumatera the following week, Fazz still on leave, Patrick will be busy packing for Vietnam later in Dec, and generally this is before the Christmas/New Year’s break when many may be already on holiday….anyway, sorry you can’t make it..we’ll make sure we take photos of the food if you like…?
looks like we need a press conference to announce our club formation, introduce pro-tem committee, map out activities for next year, angels….(had to throw the last one in!!)..
