Hi Steve-
It's run by Vince Hughes...100% legit. Vince's wife is very sick, so please be mindful of that. He'll get back to you at some point, but be patient.

Yep, Vince is awesome. Years ago, before I knew anything about karting and kart engines, Vince took the time to teach me a lot of stuff about the vintage engines and karts. He was a huge help all the way along.

Guys, Linda Hughes lost her battle yesterday. A great loss to us all and most of all to Vince. Not a better karting couple have we had in our midst. My prayers go to Linda and Vince.

I had the pleasure of visiting with Linda at Medford last September. I was unaware of her medical challenges and am VERY sad to learn of her passing. My DEEPEST condolences to Vince and his family.

I'm very sorry to hear that Linda has passed. I have only worked with Vince via phone and email, but he seems like the kinda guy I would like to hang out with. I wish him well.

I got to meet her a few times, Prairie City & last year she opened her home to Cubel & I when we were traveling through just last year. Very, very nice lady.
