Christianson really had a nice last lap in Lincoln to knock Mark Keisel out of the trophies. Really looked good. LS1 powered Westfield with autocross chassis changes by Del Long.

Platt's car is really high end car porn.

Both cars can win if Jeff Keisel breaks before completing a run.

Cashmore's Sprinto is wicked wicked goodness. Del Long chassis with I believe a dry sumped K20A. The poorman's DM car to battle with Hoffman's high-end Elan.

DM is more appealing to me than EM. I am not Honda ignorant. I like momentum over point and shoot power. Hoffman is more vulnerable than Keisel though both are tough.

But I still like the idea of BM and there is a good one for sale. Battle the Ellam's on the West Coast.

And the idea of an F600 in FM is interesting for sure. Barnhouse makes most of the West Coast national events. The FM guys were really welcoming at Lincoln. The F600 has to ballast up... I got that covered. ;)

We will probably also field a shifter kart. And Stacey may drive that if she can find a way to fit one set up for a 6'2" skinny driver (Sheldon).

Ultimately, I may need a trailer that can routinely handle three full size karts, an FM car and a CM car. Wiggle Way Racing is either going a way or wildly expanding.

If he says anything but F600, I'm going to slap him.

Yes! F600 looks like a blast. And sounds bitchin'.

I'm signed up for El Toro in two weeks. Can you have it by then?
