CMMC Indoor Karting Event Jan 27

WRAPUP:  It was a great day of racing!!  We had several people from the Milwaukee club come down to join us, a handful of new faces, and lots of regulars.  The racing was close, but not too aggressive, and the “backwards” full track layout was fun.  Thanks to all who participated to make this a really fun Team event, and thanks to Dustin  from AutoXCooper for supplying CG Lock seat belt locks to the fastest CMMC team!!

Dustin from AutoXCooper (and CMMC Board Member) has offered a prize of CG Lock seat belt locks to the winning team!!

This should be a great event yet again.
I would like to thank the board for keeping it on the calender.

Steve Jan 25th, 2008 Link

I’m psyched for some racing.

Due to the weather, I may wind up violating my “clean car to a MINI event” rule though..

Rob Jan 26th, 2008 Link

My second has dropped out due to illness. So that frees up another spot.

Chris M Jan 28th, 2008 Link

Great Event! Forearms are a bit sore, I guess I tense up a bit too much, totoally worth the 45 bucks! Can’t wait for next year!

Steve Jan 28th, 2008 Link

I had a great time also!!

The racing was competitive, but at a fun level. I enjoyed everyone’s company and the chance to chat and hang out a bit.

Ken E. Jan 28th, 2008 Link

Great time, Count me in for next time!

LTL M CPE Jan 28th, 2008 Link

This was a great event as always. Need to keep as an annual event at minimum.
If I had known we had some openings I could have posted to the Windy City BMW board. I know a few folks jumped at the chance last time. We should have a contact list of folks to send requests to when we need more people.

We should have a contact list of folks to send requests to when we need more people

Good idea Jim. Something I would like to do is to have a time period in the begining for signup of club members/guests, and then a time period at the end where it is open for additional guests and others (if needed).

That would give all our club members the chance to sign up and the flexibility to draw additional people if we are short.

We have always filled this event in the past, and even had waiting lists. This time we were hampered drawing in non-club members and a number of last minute cancellations.

DaveZ Jan 28th, 2008 Link

This is great event, we need to keep this on the calender next year.
Great to see everyone again, as well as, meet a few new faces.

Adam Jan 28th, 2008 Link

Had a great time, hopefully we will be able to do it again next year.

Taylor Jan 28th, 2008 Link

Great event as always. A must-have for next year.

Anthony Jan 28th, 2008 Link

I had a pretty good time. Would have liked to get in some more practice before the race started, but what can you do…

David Q Jan 30th, 2008 Link

Had a great time as always! The big track going clockwise was alot fun. I hope we do it again next year!
