instantly gaining 25lbs was an experience. :shock: Thanks Trey for letting me flog the kart. Kart placement and picking the correct gear gets a wee bit busy. :oops: read as "figure out I'm in the wrong gear too late" :oops: :lol:

James, after I had on the rib protector, M.O.L.L.E. suspenders with weight, my motorcycle jacket and pants I was stuffed in the seat pretty tight. It seems Treys legs are somehow shorter than mine and I found my knee into the shifter. Once I got moving I didn't notice anything uncomfortable, but then I was focused on not killing it, keeping it on course, getting it in the correct gear. Eh, 2 out of 3 aint bad. :roll: Trey and I might need to get you to critique our runs over beverage or something since weren't you working the course while we ran?

I didn't notice the tie. I did notice that with except of first and last place, we were all within a second of each other.

Glad everyone had fun. Nobody warns you how tiring it is to chair an event! I'm half asleep at my desk this morning. Big thanks to JB, RC, and CH for helping to tweak the course to be alot more fun. I really enjoyed the course, the competition, and the comradery all weekend.

Great course and great site. Wish we had more events at Walters State.

No photography rule is a bummer but a moot point for me since I am not bringing my cameras so I can focus on trying to learn to drive (which is also a moot point given that I seem to be going backwards in that regard).

You just might have enjoyed the last event there - heard that we got kicked out of the office up on the hill because they said the bathrooms were trashed? Kinda doubting they'll be having us back next year if thats true..

That's odd, I used the bathroom before we left for the last event and it didn't seem trashed to me.

Yeah, several people said the same thing. I'm not trying to hush anyone, but I'm not sure it is productive to speculate.

The bottom line is that we can't take any sites for granted, so we try our best to stay on good terms. WS seems to have a pretty full plate, so hopefully we'll be stay on good terms and work something out in the future. It is nice to have a lot without curbs, crazy bumps, etc.
