The dual race at the same track was a great idea, particularly for the So Cal locals. I think the best thing you guys can do is keep the Festvial race growing and do what you can with the series. The IKF has made itself irrelevant and what you guys and SWRA have done are very logical considering what's happening. Keep up the good work, see you at the track. Dave Thanks Deb.

One other note for you, when discussing the punch option I had over 100 Gatorz members ready to join IKF to race botht the RR and shifter nationals. Reason for no punch was in case a punch race fell on their (or Prokarts) race days, the racers would not be penalized. I was told "getting new members does not matter, it does not pay the bills" !!! Well, without members no one is going to the their damn regional races or buying their damn expensive insurance! I know, I am one of "them" but at times I feel like Don Quitox (sp) tilting at windmills and punding my head against the wall is starting to get painful, but damnit we need to move forward and if IKF isn't going to get in gear, then someone has to. I loved telling them to stuff their contracts as they didn't want to negoiate, but now they have to with NCK and I am kicking, yelling and screaming! So much for my rant. Deb I love your ideas.
