Jerry Clayton Jerry everything is OK.
As far as the body on the gokart, check the safety sheet, you need safety gear and helmet. The car needs lights. I am not in charge but the idea is interesting.
I agree with the big bore short stroke motor for road racing and having a larger rpm and possible power range than a small bore long stroke motor is the way to go. For my driving and not like turning these strokers over 6,200 rpm, I stay with the big tork motor and have 1 extra gear to shift to. Morris car weight was about 2,900 lbs. My era is 2705lbs with all Aluminium motor and 1/2 tank of gas. I also have a power steering assist rack. I like you, have been very lucky to have seen the big motor,power days of the late 60's to early 70's. I miss owning a 69 Hemi roadrunner, but wrenched it for 2 years when racing with a friend. I turned down a 67 vette with tri 427 motor. Neighbor owned it and needed new brakes and calipers every year. He sold it before they came out with stainless cups. I tryed to talk a guy out of a superbird that is rotten away in the next town over. I ended up with the cobra instead of the bird. He will not sell it and the rear of the car is out in all the weather, what a waste. 383, auto, orange basic model. One day I will caught the wife, and with cash in hand save this car. I travel 998 miles from Jersey to this event, and the people and track people, Dan and Tim give us a great time and more track time than most can run. 300 miles is a 5 hour, 1 gas stop, Me 16 hours and 4 stops and 1 power nap
Hope you come next year.
