Yeah I gotta be around hippies at least once a week or I run out of material
Guys I really want to come, not a cop out, just have a tranny leak from what I'm pretty sure is an axle seal. If I come out I'm going to want to run and I don't think it would be a good idea. I'm currently house sitting or a friend right now so I'm just gonna kick it with a movie in Austin. Good luck to everyone and let me know how it all goes.

edit: anyone using their handbrake for launching?

Meh, our south region section is soo boring... We need more random fun threads about everyday texas stuff .
Has anyone been to the shifter kart place by the airport? I saw it while flying out of Austin and it looks pretty cool. Who's in for some kart racing?

Can we rent carts? I don't have a shifter cart but I will get on anything with a motor!
BTW, are any of you into dirtbikes? I have a KTM 300 and I'm always looking for riding buddies. We go up to a place in Salado called Central Texas Off Road.

I'd be in for some cart racing. Maybe we could get Derek Easty, current points leader in the national carting circuit, to join us and give some pointers. He is racing this weekend in Alabama, but will be off for two months.

RaceBiscuit,
I know there a couple of DE events coming up in Sept/Oct that I am sure some of the locals will attend.
You may also want to check out DEVO330's thread about a Rally @ Motor Sport Ranch. That will probably be the next opportunity for a track event with the Evo group. The DFW folks are a great bunch. They drove all the way down here for a drive several weeks back and we had a great time.

However, I do know a few of the instructors and they say that there are almost always a few Evos out there at the events. I can definitely recommend an instructor for you if you go.
