Our karts are designed and built by Jeff and George and they operated perfectly.  You'll have to excuse the out of tune singing of a great old Roger Miller song, but we just couldn't resist.

  • After a 15 mile run we came on this mudslide and had to call it quits for this run.  We inspected the line beyond this point on foot but discovered another blockage a half mile up the road.
