I'm doing a business plan for a class, which is going to be a plan for an indoor karting facility like G-force. Since I know you all have nothing else to do, I thought I'd throw a few questions up that you may be able to answer. Links to sites are fine, thanks. I'll prob post more as I go and let you know how the final turns out.

What is the historical background of this type of business (karting in general and indoor karting facilities)?

what is the current status of the karting industry?



Oh yeah, if you feel like posting and saying why don't you just search yourself, please don't bother. I'm just looking for everyone else's knowledge.

I'd just like to give a big thanks to Mike for his past 2 years of Presidential responsibilities. The club has grown a lot and Mike has done a lot behind the scenes. I know last year especially was tough, not knowing all the answers. Thanks man, best of luck after graduation- and don't worry, I'll be asking you tons of questions next year.

looks like a new blend of mobil 1 is out, and it says is for high revving "weekend racecar" engines. for those that are pretty anal about the oil they use, this looks like a new bling formula...

Yo yo,

This is for all you who are pretty familiar.

Driving at higher speeds today (70pmh) i noticed slight vibration in the steering wheel. I remember that the tech person at the last auto-x said that my passenger side wheel bearing is a little loose. Could this be the cause? i have almost 110K miles on this Civic, so i'm guessing that could be the case. What do you guys think. i just got new wheels and tires, so they should be properly balanced. The front rotors also need to be changed in the summer, but the vibrations weren't caused by braking.

Just wanted to know your opinions.

I have to go to tech to pick up a second set of wheels at Tech sometime. Anyone want to make a road trip? (I got a killer deal $130 for all four.)

Watch out for WV state troopers next time anybody goes out on 33 west. I know it isn't the same but, I got pulled over for my first speeding ticket yesterday on I64 right outside of Charleston, WV. I was just driving with traffic and a WV trooper on the side of the road in his Dodge Ram pointed me out. So I pulled over, he got me doing 79 in a 70, which I knew I was doing, and I explained to him that I was simply going with traffic. So I thought he was going to be cool and give me the warning, but instead he comes back after processing the paperwork and says, "Hey, this is a nice car, I bet it is easy to get out of hand with this car, considering what your license plate says (CYAH LTR)." I said "No, sir. I was just travelling with traffic and don't think this ticket is fair, and "see you later" is simply a saying I use with some friends." Well, I signed the summons so I could get going because I had a prior commitment in H'burg at 2pm that I couldn't be late to. After I sign it, he pulls the "Sir, you seem nervous, are you concealing any contraband that I should know about." I said no, of course, because I am not into that stuff. Then I asked him about payment, because WV doesn't do the $5 or whatever for every mile over.
"So what do I need to do about the payment, because I am not planning to come out here ever again," so the cop takes it sarcastically and says, "What does that mean, you have a problem with state troopers," and he goes on and on. Well, he finally lets me go, and so today I called the magistrate court of Kanawha County (what the f*** name is that) and I never talked to anybody, it was simply a voice recording. 9 and less mph over is $125, 10-15 is $130, and 16-20 is $135. So now I am out $125 for a stupid ticket that I shouldn't have gotten. Sorry, but I needed to vent, as for I will always remember my first speeding ticket being a fluke by a stupid WV state trooper.

I.E. off of a DSM, 3KGT, etc.
