We know they are vintage, rare, almost sacred, but we have to have numbers on the karts! In both 2006 and 2007 we had racers on track with no numbers what so ever! And then there were the unreadable numbers and also the karts with a number on them that didn't match the number on the helmet! We know it is all in fun, but after the race most drivers wanted to know where they finished. It is really hard to tell 'Mystery Man' where he was in the order when he could not be scored. Please help us out with decent numbers.
Questions about rules / classes in advance of event to be directed to Bill at 630-377-3115 or 630-400-2645 Cell.
