SSKC Race # 1 Recap
May 9/12 - The first race of the
season, Sunday May 6th was met with a very mixed bag of weather...
cloud mixed with rain. Despite those conditions the race went
forward. Practice was generally cloudy. We started out with
14 registered racers at the outset but numbers declined for the actual
races due to the rain. It started to rain just before qualifying
started and several of the participants decided not to run in the rain
and left.
Those who stayed put on their rain tires and qualifying and the first
race went ahead on the rain tires
The weather started to break and for the second heat the Jr1 and Jr TAG
ran on a dry track with slicks. The Sr TAG/Masters started out on
slicks but only a couple (Nick and Sam) could stay on the track as the
rain again returned. That heat was stopped a couple of laps in by
the flag man because of concerns about safety in wet conditions on
slicks.
All in all not an optimal race day, but for those who braved the
weather there was some additional experience of running in poor weather
that may prove of some value in some of the race competitions this
coming year in the ROK Cup or ROTAX Max Challenge.
Lets hope for
better race weather on the 27 of May for Race number 2.
Thanks
to Sam F for the recap of the race day
2012 Test & Tune Rules
May
5/12 - Just a quick reminder about T & T rules for the
season.
1. Waivers must be signed before going on track.
2. T & T fees now apply.
3. All karts must meet their class rules when it comes to restrictors
and weight. All driving gear must be worn. A pre –tech will
be performed and if you do not meet spec, corrections will need to be
made for problems before running. The inspectors will try to help
everyone understand what is needed and why. There is a technical
inspection sheet on the club website that is a good starting
point. All are reminded about being sure brakes are good and
functional and it is suggested you check for leakage around the master
cylinder and caliper(s) if you have not already done so. If you
need help inspecting or bleeding the brake system, just ask.
4. In case of rain and you decide to practice in the rain, you must
have on rain tires. The “CLUB” race/practice rain tire rule is
any manufactures rain tire is accepted. For those that have never
driven in the rain, slicks are just useless and you have very little to
no directional control and as such are likely to cause problems and
result in kart damage. Also protection for the air intake is
highly recommended. Commercial models of intake rain protection
are available or jury rigged systems can be made with a plastic coke
bottle. Those with ROK 2 cycle engines should really use
protection on the ignition system on the left side of the engine, an
empty small plastic cottage cheese or chip dip container of about the
225 to 250 gram size is ideal. Ask one of the experienced ROK
drivers if you have questions.
5. Maximum 10 kart per class at a time on the track. In case of
more than 10, class will be split and managed in this way.
- Session will be increased to 20 minutes.
- All drivers must be ready to go as when a kart
comes off the track, another one will be allowed on track to take his
place. Drivers will be waived off the track after 10 minutes to allow
others their time and if room, you may go back out until the session
ends.
6. There is no passing allowed any where on the track, no wheel to
wheel racing permitted during Test and Tunes. A passing zone may
be implemented however it must be manned by a non competitor. If
implemented, a blue “passing flag” will be used to warn a driver that a
faster kart wants to pass. A driver failing to allow this kart to
pass will be blacked flagged and removed from the session. A
second infraction will suspend this driver from participating for the
remainder of the day.
7. Quiet rule in effect. (proven last weekend it wasn’t so bad after
all.)
SASK CHALLENGE KART SERIES
April 8/12 - The SSKC

SASK CHALLENGE KART SERIES
2012 4-cycle tires - Mojo brand
Mar. 26/12 - For 2012 all 4
cycle karts - Senior & Junior Briggs and any Mini Max karts - will
be spec'd to use Mojo tires. It will be Mojo 4.5 x 5 x 10 front
D1 and Mojo
6.0 x 5 x 11 rear D1 tires.
Keith reports that "... Fortunately, this makes my life easier as I
already am part of the Mojo tire program through SRA which will help
supply and costs to you!!! I am just awaiting the final pricing, but my
understanding is they are less money than the Bridgestone currently
used..."
Keith is setting up orders for the start of the year so please let him
know how many tires sets you wish to order to get started. Those
who have the old Bridgestone will be allowed to wear them out, however
if you have to buy additional tires the new spec will be Mojo.
Contact Keith Miller for additional information (see his contact info
at the bottom, left side of this page)
The Cave

Keith
has provided the last two articles on his series of getting your kart
ready for the coming race season. His lat two articles cover
getting your breaks ready and making sure the chassis is ready for the
rigors of racing.
The full series of articles are now posted
on the Cave page. These articles will help you make sure your
kart is ready for this racing season.
In
the same vein as Keith's first article on getting your kart ready, the
folks at VROOM Magazine have an article on the same topic, check it out
at their site here.
Thanks
