Congrat's to Kevin Teague for taking TTD yesterday, a 59.638. He and Rick said they had to downshift 4 gears in at least 3 turns. Kevin said he took the fast right hander after the top of the hill flat in 6th and said he pulled more g's than he ever remembers. I'm not really sure I want to know how fast he was going around that turn, and I'm sure mom doesn't need to know. Unfortunately I forgot the GoPro, so no videos.

I was watching Kevin's runs Chris. He was handling that kart like a champion. Great job.

nothing really compares to the fearlessness of a 17yo male! so that makes it *almost* 1 full year since moving up from jr karts to TTOD? Good work!!!!Chris Teague wrote: Kevin said he took the fast right hander after the top of the hill flat in 6th and said he pulled more g's than he ever remembers.
