    Default Update

    Hey,

    Ok I finally have enough for a roll cage, and have more then I need so I can also buy other things. Yesterday was my b-day so I am 16 now . So I spent the weekend at Road Atlanta, I even brought my mom. The good thing now is she cant wait for me to start racing ITC, hopefully next year. Pro Solo was not good for me as the SCCA made a mistake of saying I could race the Mon. before the event, so I raced karts that weekend. The Civic has been driven a lot, I have had no problems, it stays cool, sounds good, and seems fine. It does burn some oil as I can confirm that but I check it A LOT! I blew a kart motor up once racing w/out oil and it's not cool. I have added a tachometer, and little things in the engine bay, some new hoses, etc. This weekend coming up I will be racing it in Solo 2 at Turner Field, should be fun. Well I am off to Florida, thanks!

    Simon:

    We thank you for your enthusiastic update. Have you contacted KIRK about the cage yet? Do look forward to seeing pictures of the car on track-good luck at Turner Field.

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

    Hey.

    I did call them a few weeks back and will again this week, how long usually does it take for the cage to be made? Will keep you updated!

    Good work so far Simon! Don't forget, we have another check for you when you get the log book for the car.

    BTW, did you see that Isaac customer smack the T1 wall in his IT car?

    Simon - when KIRK did my cage they quoted me a month, but they got it to me even sooner. However, it all depends on the orders they have at the time.
