Thanks for the tip Lewis!!! I'm looking into it right now. I know some of the guys in our club are racing their shifters. If they need a wrench or general lackey, I'm there...

Pretty sure that Buemi and Alguersuari are still listed as racing.
The Supernats are always special, but this is over the top.

Hey, Wayne, Come 'on out to this. We'll split the cost of a room. Now that we're rooting for the same team, shouldn't we get to know each other better?

So can you buy tickets to this, or is it invitation only?

I'll go if there's a way to get in.

Pit passes (spectator):
http://www.superkartsusa.com/superna...enue-info.html
$15/day, $45/event

If you know someone on a team, then you might be able to get a hot pit pass.
If you have some contacts at the Rio, you might be able to get a hot pit pass as well.

He'll probably get beat by some 14 year old kid no one outside of karting has ever heard of, and the kid still won't be able to get a ride

^^ The fix is already in. The 14 year old is going to be told to pull over so Michael can win.

There will be post race underwear inspection however...

When Michael and I discuss how how to handle Alonso at Ferrari between his heat races, I'll casually slip him his book to sign for A. Wayne. Christmas is going up to know...

Schumacher is in P2 after the first practice, 0.5s behind Gary Carlton (great kid BTW).

You can follow it here in this thread:
http://ekartingnews.com/viewtopic.php?t=88853

BTW, there is also live timing/scoring and some folks are uploading pictures.
Apparently there are (legal) issues with live video from the Rio Casino...no idea on details.
