So tell me again why your car should be slow? Your car should drag the **** out of Will's car. You aren't fooling anyone and should just stop because it looks over humble. You'd be a good run for Vic.

Take it from a guy you trust lol:

how am i good run for vic? 700+ RWHp @ 3000 rwhp vs my tank?? lol

you need a new hobby joe..

How many times have you been out to the Karting place? It was funny I didn't see you racing until after I got my slips and saw your name ahead of mine each time lol. That was my first time out there. I only ran two heats so I could let my son run a couple. I'd like to get into the 73s next time I go out.
I would rather have two nitrous bottles ,two nano bottles ,slicks ,one 41 inch long belt and a shitload of hp that lives my shop.
Oh yeah wait...


You didn't know that was me behind you in the staging lanes bumping you over and over while you wife was filming? How could you have missed that? I assigned myself to that kart and you in the one infront of me both races.
I think I'm at 15 visits 76 races and 500+ laps. That equalls around 400 miles. I have the most laps and sessions ran from a paying customer. Only person that has run more laps than me is the owners son.

Yes vic will probably beat you. But you did skip the point about Will that Joe made. Point is you think Wills V is fast. By power to weight ratio you should drag Will. Which means you are not slow.

I didn't remember what you looked like. Now that you mention it I do remember someone bumping my kart from behind but I figured it was everyone starting their carts and giving it a little gas. I was pretty rusty. Haven't been in a kart in about 8 years. The guy said the track record is 69 but that was a new kart when the track was new. Doubt I will get that fast. I'd be happy with a 72 if I could go more often.

You clearly don't know how fun it is. But how is it arguing when I stated I only had 2 races at that place?

Feldman has always down played any car he's owned and will always down play any car he's owned. It'll never change. More annoying to have to read about it then anything.

no reason for that at all. There's difference in acknowledging what your car has, its potential and its limits vs. my car is a POS attitude.

then again, sandbagging is your m.o. so you gotta keep that rep

I joke about it.. but it doent take a rocket scientist to figure out what my car makes.. No magic combo.. if they cant figure it out.. not my problem.. when i asked.. i have NO PROBLEM telling people what i make.. it seems like you and monsta go out of your way to call what everyone else does "sand bagging" when i do it lol...

x2

That’s me!!! I love to race and have fun **** all the sandbagging ****. If I lose oh well it was fun running whoever.

I'll tell everyone what I have up front.. All the people on tech that know me understand that and it's a lot of fun when it comes down to racing.

But that’s just me!!

I know the people that do the sandbagging bet money so that’s why they do it .. Great for them have fun... If you want to race for fun I'm game if you know your going to put 15 bus lengths on me save your gas lol

lol You going to stop highway traffic for this run lol I've seen it happen it's pretty funny to watch but, like he said before he's a roll racing kind of guy.



I would be down for a dig run in a couple weeks at the track. Crandall.
