Leonard was in the very low 27's. I was the slowest in the high 27's. Don't know if Leonard ever got to the 26's or not.

My first kart was the best. The last two were slower but still fun.

My fastest was a 27.1xx - it was the 11th fastest time for the week - this was in a cart that had almost no brakes. On our other two races, I had 27.2xx's in carts with good brakes. Go figure. Best cart was the first cart, but the third cart was fine after the tires warmed up.
