But when the 78 is done, I'll expect those comments to change to "So, how does it feel to have one of the highest HP stock engined 928s brendan?"

Hooraaah for Miata power...

See my sig regarding Miata's . Sounds like you've never driven a kart before. There is really no comparison & you should attend this event & find out why.

In an effort to keep this on page one, here is a list of respondees:

Myself and of course Amy

Brendan

Mongo and (possibly) Romie

PerryS4

Rob Edwards

MP Dano

Ron V. and Debbie

Emickelsen

Dr. Bob

Morganabowen

Stevestik

bdOnaldsOn

Steve C. (a local friend and p-car entusiast... and ringer )

March 1 is looking like the best bet so far. I know we have others out there that attended the first event (talking to you current champ bdOnaldsOn ) and hope to see you there. Again, bring along the wives/girlfriends as a good time will be had by all!

As I recall, you got to see my expression twice in quick succession. First, the discouragement in seeing you pass me; however, the disappointment was for the briefest of moments as the front and rear of your kart quickly switched orientation (coincidence?) and I regained the lead (and my elation). Now that I think about it, in the panic of spinning out of control, you might not have had a chance to take in that second emotional state. Sort of like the amnesia people often get following tramautic accidents.

Anyway, In.
