We are very aware of the time, effort, and dedication it takes to keep kartings history a...

Some sad news

Just got word out of Arizona that Ted Johnson has left us.

Teddy had a real love for historic karts and he loved to tell a story or two of the days gone by.

R.I.P. Teddy, your going to be missed by many.

Re: Big TBO Thanks

Mike,

We missed you and the family.

You guys missed out at a shot at taking home another Mc-91 that we gave away as one of the free Bonus Raffles.

Hope you can make a return next year because we all would love to see your Blackhawk display.

The look on Frank Weirs face when he walked in the door and seen the track was priceless and Holly Rietz was having so much fun she put in close to 500 la...

This year however the 3 days worth of photos that were taken have been lost in a camera or computer failure. We cannot say how sorry we are for this mishap and steps will be taken to ensure this do...

Re: Big TBO Thanks

Jim Donavan reached out to say "Thank You" to everyone who signed the card we had for his wife and him. He went on to say that he has only missed 3 editions of THE BIG ONE and that he really missed not seeing everyone this year and that he will return.
