vintage racing in ct need head count

[david a luciani]

Karters on the upper East coast.
I saw a post a while back on one of the sites about vintage racing in ct. Since i live in ct. i checked it out. it seems that an old karting club Tri State Kart Club is looking to expand it's scope. the club will make classes vintage karters in their regular line-up.they require at least three karts to show up to allow them to race. They are serious so we need to be too.
i went to their meeting and confused them with the specs on vintage karts. some of the older members seem to know what i mean but i think to see them would be best. i was very clear that the karts would not be modified in any way for safety specs and would probably have to run as exhibition for the insurance coverage. they were ready to put the vintage stuff in a points rotation but i said that wasn't necessary.
Currently we plan to run a obsolete and possibly vintage classes. we haven't hashed out the details but we'd like to use the vintage guidelines if there's enough to run a class. There's only a basic safety tech so it's a run what you brung kinda thing. of course personal safety gear is mandatory .
the pit fee is 15$ per person and club membership is forty. the private club track is a paved old school track waaaay in the back of a farm (dirt road access). it seems they allow camping but i wasn't clear on that. it's a family oriented club and their schedule reflects that. i believe most racing is on Sunday . test and tunes on saturday with some saturday practices.
If you live on the upper east coast and want to race we need your names asap. The track is just a banked oval 1/8 mile but they've offered to let us have our own class and regular rotation. If nothing else it's a nearby track that'll allow you to fine tune your kart in a venue that's legal. For me i'd be a riot just to thrash a kart around without any blue light fears!!!! if you're interested we'll need to know soon dave
