hi folks . not sure if im in the right place for the entrance but if i am.....i am 52 years old. I raced for 2 years on a dirt oval track in the 4 banger class . ( about 20 years ago ) . im still a kid a heart and still have that competitive side. i have been checking out what you guys have going on here and a fellow could really learn a lot from yall and i thank you all as well. well recently my nephew which is in his 20 s called me up to let me know he had plans on building a go-cart track and wanted to get a group of guys together to do some saturday night racing and maybe even a points thing and gave me an invite . Well some say i might be too old for this but i say God also made a place where the sun dont shine for unwanted old jokes . So just let me fly. Life is too short to go through it without doing something that makes you happy as long as the money permits....lol i am mechanically inclined so im gona let yall know whats on my mind in case someone wants to offer some good advice and any helpful hints because im a long long way from knowing it all.... Sorry. . lol..I have been doing a little research and i plan to build me from a new Predator 212 a racing motor around a cam with a 285 lift are the 308. i have built small engines before just never anything but stock...... well i guess i have bored yall enough , looking forward to chatin with you guys

I'm about to start building a Hemi 212cc around the NR 285-0211 cam.

Just in the planning:idea2:/fund raising:2guns: stages, which might last a while.

Start a thread in the engines and clutches sections.
Looking forward to seeing this build. :popcorn:
And
:welcome2: to the forum.

Welcome.
Sounds like fun. You guys should have "some" engine rule. even though it is just some buddies racing in the yard. What fun is it if 1 guy always wins cause he can out spend on Motor.
